Re: PO has me PO'd
Bumper is a 1/8 " in the way of letting the bolt seat
Not wanting to grind bumper, have to try moving bumper or grille guard 16584476496242440129578185233226 by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/97391199@N06

Re: PO has me PO'd
Ok fixed my problem, I broke my own rule when assembling parts, start all fasteners and hand tight before using a wrench....
Just need to find the right socket to fit up in there

Re: PO has me PO'd
I got my blazer on a killer deal. I drove it for several years with it in primer. I planned to paint it a couple different times and finally pulled the trigger.
I have one comment on the thread where the roll pan in the back was welded and the tailgate will not come off (no access to the bolts). The latest gave me quite the scare as I think back. I have been on it pretty hard a few times, even snatching a gear here and there. Super fun. Pulled the wheels and found 2" spacers and this style of spacer and lug nut has three, and maybe four threads engaged on the wheel studs. (four is a stretch). Still not complaining, but sometimes I wonder what people are thinking...not thinking....when they build their rides????? Scott |

Re: PO has me PO'd
Scott, I agree. My spacers are 1 1/2" and have plenty of threads on the lug nut, if you have 2 inch spacers, you should probably lengthen your wheel studs.
Thanks for posting up, and enjoy your ride

Re: PO has me PO'd
I've always wondered what was done when these trucks were new.
Loose nut on the back side, or well nut?

Re: PO has me PO'd
Thanks for the encouragement, I call it my therapy
Glad I bought my camaro back in 15, at least I have something fun to drive.... Doug, thanks for stopping by and posting up, sometimes I wonder if anyone really reads this stuff, glacially slow Going on 7 weeks of lower back pain, twice to the hospital and once to doctors office, to no avail,just injections and pills, that's not the lifestyle I want I think I may have found my welder problem someone switched to 035 welding wire, I'm used to 023
