S-10 Blazer Board? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

82 Silverado 4X · 06-12-2003, 05:55 PM

Anyone have a link to a good S-10 Blazer group. I picked up a 91 4wd that needs some work (and parts) for my son 15 year old son. Any suggestions would really be a big help.
Thanks

I am almost certain www.chevytalk.com has a S10 section. I know there are some sites dedicated strictly to S10's also but I do not know the links

I just picked up the exact same one you have. I am fixing it to sell and needed a few questions answered.
I got NO response at Chevytalk so i went on a hunt and found the one above. I need 2 fenders and a door but Carlisle is in 2 weeks so i'll find what i need there. L8R, DAVE

Thanks. I joined Blazenlow.com last night and even found a few local members. The setup is very similar to this forum.
Crossy: If you can't find what you need at Carlisle they probably never made it. I'll check out the site you suggested tonight.

The PO owner of the Blazer sold it to me for $200.00 because he said it had a spun main bearing. The body had a new front clip still in primer but the core support was still damaged and it made the front of the front fenders sit too low leaving a gap at the top of the doors. The rest of the body really looked rough (small dents and lots of primer)but it was actually pretty solid. The black interior was really dirty but didn't have any rips. It has power everything except the seats. I figured if the motor was trashed I could always part it out to recoup my investment.
When I got it home I threw in a battery. It fired right up and something sounded like it was about to come apart but it didn't sound like a spun main to me. I removed the serpantine belt to eliminate the bolt on accesories and fired it up again. This time it sat there running as quiet and smooth as can be. It turns out that the alternator had a really bad bearing. The shaft had about a 1/4 of slop.
My son already gutted the interior and removed the front clip. We'll do the body and paint then clean up the interior and reinstall it.
It will make an excellent 1st car for him.

yeah, I'm not an S10 guy ,but I bought mine cheap with a' bad ' tranny and the intention of parting it out . it needs 2 fenders & a door.Not wrecked just beat up. looked into the tranny and I found a piece of rubber line that was kinked so hard it was pinched off. took 2 hours to fix it right but the tranny is fine. SOMETIMES you win, not often

but sometimes.

Yea, it's great when something finally works out your way. Hope you end up making a big profit on it when you sell.
