Re: Stink Ten Two. The second Blazer.

Having driven the new Blazer for a couple hundred miles now I've identified some things that need correcting.

The console has been covered with vinyl to match the seats and door panels. There is a chrome trim piece around the shifter that I don't believe is factory. However the console isn't bolted down and when it is centered on the shifter you can't lay the rear seat flat as the top of the seat hits the console preventing the seat from laying flat. (Photo #1) And if you move the console forward so it clears the seat back the chrome trim then prevents the shifter from going into the even numbered gears. (Photos #3) Grrr!

This will take some figuring out my part to find a clean solution. After close to 20 years of always having the seat folded flat in the old Blazer I'm not going to start going around with the seat up now.

The truck also has quite a few rattles to trace and fix and the drivers side door takes too much effort to shut. And I need to locate a spare tire. One of those space saver spares that is

Then when I when to change oil, the filter I got for the 2.8 V6 didn't fit. Another PO inflicted problem?
