Ok, she's done except for the tailgate trim/weather seal and the trim at the front of the bed behind the seats. Checked my daily log and I started the project on November 9. Synopsis of the project:

- I'd like to thank this board for all the information, reinforcement, and "atta boy's" I got.
- Took longer than I thought.
- I estimate that 80% of the rattles, squeeks, etc have been eliminated.
- I am happy with the end result.
- I thank the wife for being a "garage widow" for the last month.
- Fatmat is worth the effort and expense.
- The carpet kit I got from ACC fit well and was easy to install.

Blue4x4 · 12-15-2005, 09:50 AM

lookin good. I hope to make lots of progress during the holidays.

Johns70 · 12-15-2005, 11:48 AM

that did turn out really nice, i like the wood strips on the rear panels.

tpi72blazer · 12-15-2005, 12:15 PM

Nice Job!

70rs/ss · 12-15-2005, 12:15 PM

Wow the stripper Blazer that I just got my hands on will look *****in' if I can do what you just did. Where do I get the fatman? I have a couple of rolls of dynomat, but that shiz is too expensive to cover the whole floor, sides, doors, etc. The fatman looks similar and I hear it is more cost effective (coverage vs cost compared to the dynomat) BTW yours looks minty fresh from the southwest as mine does, no rust except a little in the rockers. Your floors look as nice as mine.

NuBomb · 12-15-2005, 02:39 PM

Looks great. I hope to do the same thing before Spring gets here. I'll be buying the fatmat and the ACC carpet. Great job! and ATTA BOY!

blazerparts · 12-15-2005, 06:52 PM

Thanks all. Fatmat.com. I got the double roll, 100 ft sq. I figure I have a little more than I need to do the outer door skins.

71jimmy · 12-15-2005, 09:45 PM

Great looking job! Looks like the time you spent payed off.

**SOON2BLAZE** · 12-16-2005, 01:37 PM

THAT IS HOT! Best looking blazer interior I've seen yet!

IGOR · 12-16-2005, 04:53 PM

What did you do to cover up the fatman on the tailgate? BTW - that looks awesome! Good job

70rs/ss · 12-16-2005, 05:29 PM

Fatman is on its way here! I may use some of the Dynomat in the doors, as the three Blazers I've had in the past rattled and banged, mostly from the doors.

blazerparts · 12-16-2005, 07:05 PM

The tailgate will get the same carpet as the sides (hope I have enough left. The blazer is much more quieter now than it was. Of course driving around in an empty shell before it was finished may have skewed my remembering, but I recommend the sound deadening as a reasonably cheap and easy way to eliminate rattles, squeeks, and exhaust/engine noise.

**Canadian694x4** · 12-16-2005, 07:57 PM

Wow...Spectacular Work!!!

OJOE · 12-16-2005, 08:59 PM

lot of hard work, very good job!

red71cheyenne · 12-16-2005, 11:14 PM

Wow, that is nice! Great job on the interior. Hope mine turns out that nice. Looks like the fatmat is the way to go. Jeff.
