Re: Tub replacement on 1971 Blazer
Well parts still haven't come in for air compressor..never by oiless again...
so I borrowed an old one.
Have the frame, bed, cab floor all sprayed used bedliner looks good. and should definately handle any noise and rust problems.
Got the springs installed on a 4 inch lift. Ran into one big mess when I went to replace the steering arm..if you haven;t dealt with one of those yet..it is pretty tough. I finally had to take a tourch and blow the conical washers out. Then I couldn't find any replcements. Luckily a guy ine East Monroe, La has a big 4 wheel drive yard said "Hell Yea I got some of them" I just box em up and send them to you" mail me a check when you get them"
He is gonna send me his card and stuff .. said he had 30 years worth of 4WD parts and some blazers.. think I am going to make the drive...for some small stuff...
anyway as soon as I get off my lazy tail and shoot some pics will post them.
It has been heat index in the 110+ here and after 5-6 hours in the shop.. I am whooped.....
