Finally took some decent photos of the truck after the new lift and boots! 

 

ReadyLIFT 3.5/3" SST Lift (comes with Bilstein shocks) -- huge ride quality improvement over stock

Banks Derringer (badass little multi-gauge)

35x12.50x22 Nitto Ridge Grappler tires

Fuel Blitz 22x10 -18 wheels

 

*Note that the truck isn't on even ground, so the gaps aren't how they normally look. It's got a slight rake forward, but a much more level look overall.

Two more since we're limited on file size.

 

Head to head with a brand new F-250 Lariat FX4 for comparison. My truck looks like it's in a different league now.

Did you notice any difference in diesel mileage with the Banks Deringer? Mine guzzles diesel after the lift and bigger tires. Can you correct tire size with the Deringer?

How do you like the Amp steps?  I ordered a 21 Chevrolet with the automatic assist steps and I believe they're made by Amp.  Any issues with them or do you regret getting them?

I love them except the led light comes loose and hangs. But it could be the shop not using a strong adhesive. I’m sure the one that comes factory won’t have that problem.

can’t say either way. i don’t drive slow enough to have “good” gas mileage on the highway, and haven’t had the derringer on a road trip yet to see any sort of improvement, but i wouldn’t count on it. i def accelerate faster now because of it, which hurts mileage for sure!

 

i just took a 400+ mile road trip and i averaged about 17mpg on the highway at 80mph

 

id have to make the same drive to see if there’s improvement since i have a baseline without it now!

 

i leave it on level 2 (one above stock).

Chrome delete process, to blackout the toe hooks or not? New KMC wheels. Bed cover on its way. Amp power steps are next.

What offset do you have? Is there rubbing or did you have to trim?

      2018 Silverado Console USB Port Not Working

      By Tbhats2130 · Posted

      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.
