Took the two day old truck with 300km on it and put on another 6000km over the last two weeks through Wyoming/Colorado/Utah and did some very light offroading (truck is stock Z71 right now) in Moab.

Wish I had gotten a couple more shots of the articulation in this one, the stance was opposite on the driver side with the left rear having about a half inch of clearance from the wheel well.

 

More to come, too many driveway and parking lot shots on here. :)

A few months back I replaced my 2011 Silverado with a new 2014. I have been slowly adding things to give it my own touch.

 

So far I have put on the GM bug deflector. I had a Zone Off-road 2" leveling kit installed. I put on N-Fab textured steps. I installed a Timbren SES rear helper kit on the back end.

 

Soon to come will be a bedliner and I think tint to the front windows.

 

Here are some pictures so far.

Did you put that chrome wheel well trim on too or did you buy it that way? If i'm being honest, that completely ruins the look of your truck, otherwise, it looks awesome!

Picked mine up on Thursday. Put over 400 miles on it already. Quite a truck, even got a compliment from a random passer by in NYC! Here's the first time in the day light I could get both vehicles together. Both a little dirty but will do. I've had the CTS-V since '04. It was my daily for 7 years and has 150,000 miles on it. It is Stealth Gray and was the inspiration for the truck's color. juqemaje.jpg

Grabbed this shot under the "super moon" bringing her home for the first time Saturday night. One of those times I really wished I had a decent camera around. edagy7uz.jpg

Great looking truck and nice V. I had an '05 for a couple years, then sold it to my dad. Fun car.

    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.    
    • I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
