How the heck... Brake Light Switch. Quick help?

[elks]

How are you supposed to get to the brake light switch on a 72 blazer?

Mine is just barely out of adjustment but I sure in heck cant get my hands and wrenches in the spot where the switch is... It is frustrating. I need to get it adjusted and ensure it is working. I am in the middle of a 1 ton booster/master swap.

I know what needs to happen, but can't get to it.

OK it took me longer than it should have but I eventually kicked its butt.

So here are some pointers. The left that the switch mounts to has a slot to fit a wrench through. This will allow you access to the top nut. Since both my top nut and lower nut seemed to tight. SO I fully removed the top nut and pulled the switch all the way out. This allowed me to free up and lube the lower nut getting to sping by finger tip. Then I installed the top nut setting depth. Then tightened the lower nut.

It was still a pain but knowing the slot was there made all the difference. It is not visible and almost impossible to feel with the hand,

I had to replace mine too. It is not a lot of fun.
