Re: Project 50th C5 Blazer
Well, more progress today. Actually, Livrat has made progress this week already. He was able to finish the mock up on both the rear bag brackets and the C-notches. In addition, on went the upper shock mounts (using the 4x4 shock mounts moved back to achieve a better angle on the shock.
Here is where it was at today before we got started Also installed were the transmission cross member, the Automatic transmission linkage bracket, and the motor mount towers. So we began to work on the brakes, installing the rear caliper brackets, calipers and assessing what to do about brake lines. The rear hoses are actually 72 Chevy 4x4 front brake hoses. [/IMG] I put the front calipers on, but forgot to get new hoses.. Since the calipers are all the same on these trucks and Blazers from 71 to 78, I am using a set from my 77 2wd Blazer. Next, in went the gas tank. We also discussed the remaining welds that need finishing. Gussets for the bag brackets C-Notch Lower shock mounts Next it was time to get the tub back on. (Well at least temporarily for the trip to my shop so I can take it all apart again!)
