Hey CC, can we put this in the FAQ somewhere? Seems like this gets asked once a month or so.

Did you ever get the rear springs sorted out?

Even if you have a shop do the rebuild pull it yourself. Around here most shops will rebuild a non-OD Turbo Hydromatic trans for several hundred bucks. They aren't hard to do or costly so it's just labor that gets you.

Why?:roll:

Consider a 700R4. If you can find one from a 6.2L Blazer or the whole truck it'd literally be a bolt in affair and give you OD.

I voted for a 700R4 and spending money on ammo to kill the zombies.

Nice. When are the bigger meats going on?

Cool.

RE: Re: RE: VIN number Talk to a guy on here by the name of Carnac. He posted earlier in this thread.

That's because after 88 or so the main use for them was in the larger commercial trucks and the 88-91 K5's, Suburbans, and the few one tons all went to an electronic speedo signal for 90-91.

should be a 5 digit odo in this era truck. Probably means at some point the gauge cluster got damaged or broke and they replaced it with a later commercial truck cluster. It fits in it's place but came with a 6 digit odo.

Well...probably means 102,500...unless the interior was pristine where 2500 might be possible. It's rare with the Blazers but the pickups are fairly commonly seen with LOW miles.

Any side window should work out of a 73-87 body style GMC or Chevy pickup.

My bro in law says the star means it was used for a high ranking officer's transport. Alfa had a black star on the tailgate of my M1008 and it confused him. I told him it was likely bogus and he agreed as he said he had seen them on the Blazers but never on the pickups. I painted over mine.

The BBC is a gas hog but if you're in the market for this sort of modified, lifted, and big of a truck then that can't be much of a downer. The rust issues bug me but then again a lot of folks don't mind doing that work.

RE: battery size Amazingly this past spring my local Advanced had two on the shelf. However we've got lots of farms around here so they keep a few on hand at all times.

Per battery.

About 1100 .

RE: fuse Trust me, it is. Big wire.
