Here is a 1998 Chevy Blazer that has had a Solid axle swap. The original axles were removed and rebuilt Dana 44s installed. The rear axle is from a Isuzu Rodeo. It has a posi unit with 4.10 gears and disk brakes. The front axle is from a Jeep Wagoneer, no posi, 4.10 gears, stainless Mile Marker hubs and disk brakes. This truck stops great! The body is in good condition. There is some rust starting on the rockers and some small dings here and there. The BFGoodrich tires are new ($1000 worth).Rims are 15x10 solid aluminum, they look bad but clean up really well. Cowl induction hood from Goodmark Inc. Custom one off wheel flares and stainless nerf bars.

The bad.  

Water pump went out late last summer as did the transfer case motor. 
The front spring have started to sag and the tires are getting a bit close to the fenders now.
AC looses charge every winter. Once charged it will last all summer.
The oil lines drip a bit. Every blazer out there has or needs these replaced, just a bad design. I was going to install the oil filter on the engine but that never happened.
I think that's it.
All of these could be fixed in a weekend.
I have too many projects and not enough time.
Wife says it has to go.

The swap was done in 2007 and was driven every day until last summer. I towed a 20' boat 200 miles every other weekend in the summers and a 18' car trailer. It always did a great job.

This is sold as is, NO WARRANTY, FIXER UPPER. This truck is 16 years old, with normal were and tear. I make no suspension warranty. That is for you to inspect.

Unless you plan on fixing the water pump on the road you will need a flat bed truck to pick this up. Please ask questions.

Kurt Busch to shake and bake (again) in Ricky Bobby car at Talladega

Sat, 19 Oct 2013

Kurt Busch will channel Ricky Bobby for another NASCAR race, this time driving a Wonder-sponsored Chevrolet SS, in this weekend's Camping World RV Sales 500 at the Talladega Motor Speedway. Unlike past tie-ins, though, there's actually an element of sponsorship here (the "Me" car was done when Busch was running on a team without sponsorship).
It was arranged by Flower Foods, the new owner of the Wonder brand. Wonder was part of the bankrupt Hostess company, which temporarily exited the US market 2012, and set off the Great Twinkie Shortage.
Busch has made something of a habit of channeling characters from famous racing movies, most recently running Tom Cruise's City Chevrolet livery from Days of Thunder in a Nationwide Series race earlier this year. Busch kicked off his movie-inspired antics, though, at Talladega in 2012, when he raced El Diablo's ("It's like... Spanish for like a fighting chicken") "Me" car complete with a cougar on the hood. He even went so far as to channel the lovable idiot that is Ricky Bobby during the race, dropping a few catchphrases about macchiatos and slingshots.

GM natural gas-powered vans recalled due to possible leak

Wed, Sep 24 2014

General Motors is recalling almost 3,200 of its compressed-natural-gas powered utility vans because of possible leaks. GM and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released a notice last week saying that 3,196 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana CNG vans are on recall, though no accidents have been reported due to the possible issue. The recall is specifically for vans for model years ranging from 2011 to 2014. The recall stems from a potential leak from the compressed natural gas high-pressure regulator, and such a leak could cause a fire or explosion. GM will replace the vehicles' high-pressure regulator in order to fix the problem, will do it free of charge and is instructing owners to contact Chevrolet or GMC customer service to arrange for the parts replacement. Utility vehicle makers like General Motors have pushed for fleet sales of CNG-powered vans and trucks for the past few years and have touted them for their cheaper refueling costs relative to standard gasoline, not to mention the fact that natural gas can be readily sourced from throughout North America (thanks, fracking). According to CNGPrices.com, compressed natural gas sells for about $2.22 a gallon, on average, while the AAA is pegging the average price of gas at $3.34 a gallon. NHTSA has posted information on the recall here. Featured Gallery News Source: NHTSA via Reuters Green Chevrolet GM GMC Natural Gas Vehicles CNG gmc savana
