I put a set of Westin Pro Trax 6" Stainless steel steps on the new LTZ. While I was at it I buffed it out with Blackfire One step polish . Got rid of all the fine scratches the dumbos at the dealer put in it washing it.

It's flawless now.Screenshot_20220217-191426_Photos.thumb.jpg.10d8086aeb655805254321c13f0f78bc.jpg

Installed the Pulsar LT I ordered earlier this week. So far so good! Have it set at 15% throttle response and everything sounds/feels good. I tried 65%…. Pretty fun but obviously not viable long term lol

Swapped out the GM Work Assist Steps for the AT4 High Clearance Steps. Can't beat them for new take offs at $500; sell the Work Assist Steps for $250 and have $250 in the High Clearance Steps. This is a 1.5 beer job BTW.

The chrome steps really compliments the rest of the chrome accents on the truck.  Looks good!

Since I'm into chrome and not the blackout or color match theme, I put some bed rails on the new truck. I run these on every truck I've had since I was a kid and thats a long time ago.

They are actually stainless steel but look like chrome.

Thank you!!    It's much easier and better looking than dipping them.  Plus they don't scuff the rims.

 

Here is the link:

Anyone know where we can get black wheel skins for this 20” wheel? I have not been able to find any….

Installed the Rough Country 2" leveling struts up front. About a 3 hour job with just hand tools in the driveway. Measurements from ground to wheel wells are 39" in the rear, and 38.5" up front after install. Not sure why it looks nose-high to the naked eye, but according to the measuring tape, it's not.

    • 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.
