Hell yeah!
Thanks Dennis!
I'll pm you my info.
Do you know if it will work on either side saddle tank?

menace121978 · 04-05-2010, 08:02 PM

damn... after all that! i thought you were needing the blazer/burb tank sending unit

joe231 · 04-05-2010, 09:23 PM

Oh
sorry for the misunderstanding....
Guess one of us was confused

I have a burb tank, sender, and pump that I don't think I'm gonna use. I know the tank is too big.
Are the blazer senders/pumps the same? Guess I could pick up a blazer tank if so.

menace121978 · 04-05-2010, 10:22 PM

man i'm always confused about something. duh... well, i do know the sending unit i have is from a blaze. 'if' there was a difference, it would be a difference in length. if the burb's tank is deeper than a blazer then they are different.

I think Michael's "quoter' is broken.

I didn't get a lot done over the weekend.....
but I did manage to finish up my firewall repair, get all of the cab wiring mostly in. I had a hell of a time fishing the passenger rear dome light switch wire in

there weren't any switches for the dome on the back doors, just plugs in the holes. Guess it must have been a plain jane or bonus cab in it's previous life....well, not any more

I'm having a bit of an issue with the suburban overhead console, the bracket just doesn't quite fit right. I'm probably going to modify the bracket.
well anyway, here are a few pics......

Oh and the dumbass behind the keyboard here threw away a perfectly good crew headliner board months ago before he got this truck.....anyone know of a place to get one? I know Captkaos was talking about making them awhile back.......If I could get my hands on one, there is a place in the city that could make some out of ABS

Thanks Gerald!
I can't wait to drive it, but it's going to be about another month before that happens.

Driveway Dreams · 04-12-2010, 11:41 PM

I am so glad to see you and I fall in the same schedule...."the mid tempo group". There is the fast group like Bob, Dennis, etc. Then there is the slow group like, well, John.

joe231 · 04-13-2010, 12:07 AM

poor John,
he just can't catch a break

I hope to join the ranks of Bob and Dennis one day.....Yeah, right!!
A fella can dream, can't he

Driveway Dreams · 04-13-2010, 12:26 AM
