Re: Facing a dilemma! What to do? Pics of mine

I have been looking on craigslist to kindof get an idea on k5 prices, and I think I got above average price for mine with the rust it has and stuff it needs to be a reliable, safe, and good looking truck. I know what you mean slacker about the 4wd being handy, thats why we will still have the silver one until we sell it too (only to buy a newer 06-09 crew cab z71). But with the black blazer having lockers in the front and rear you really couldn't use the 4wd in anything except slick mud.

I couldn't believe that the bearing went bad during the test drive though.. I have driven this thing alot over the last couple months and it hadn't missed a beat til now. Now I just have to figure out how to get it all apart.

As for the 87, I just couldn't let it go. I looked for 9 months to find a black low mile original truck with all factory options and no rust. so I gotta keep it since I have it how I want it now. (plus we were both born in 87!!) Its great for roadtrips and running around for a change from the 06.
