just wondering some of the reviews said it showed in the pictures but didn't come on their part. Mine had new seal.
This isn’t the cardone one. This is the SPK new one
Picked me up a roll bar and a 2wd steering box from out in the middle of nowhere AZ $70
Finally some fun stuff
Finished the inner cleaned it up and clearanced so all bolts sit flush. Good to go. Just need a gasket and this axle is ready to go under.
Leak tested the cover this morning. Not a drop.
Well, my front axle swap has hit a road block. But it’s a good road block. We got slow at work and everyday my boss is pestering me about painting the K5. So today I’m beginning sanding off all the rattle can. Either going with silver or white. Leaning more towards white because I can do a single stage and fix trail rash way easier with that color. Still undecided. Took a DA to the rattle can on the quarter and there is barley a coat on this and they didn’t use primer. I should have this sanded fo bare metal in no time really.
About 2 hours in I’m actually digging this light blue
Any surprises ??? Yet. I couldn't even begin to guess what the PO might have done.
There’s no damage anywhere yet. Got lucky he didn’t use primer rattle can because this is coming off way easy. There was some surface rust under the factory paint though on the right rear quarter.
Reallly can’t believe how straight this truck is knowing the guy I bought it from 
Got her in there. Makes it by 1/8” haha
Taking the glass out to paint?
Gunna rope the windshield. But door glass is all coming out
Better than mine. I’ve gotta drop to 0psi to fit and even then it scrapes about 3/8”.
Yeah it was funny. My last truck at my old house. I swapped the 35’s for 37’s in my garage and then realized I couldn’t get the truck out of my garage hahaha
Hence the 0psi on mine haha. I’m contemplating dropping to 35’s just so I can drive it in and out easily. Would look odd with one ton axles but I’d never break them and with the 4.88’s it would be a blast to drive.
So decided to build a rear bumper and I’ve been obsessed with JKroberts rear bumper so basically inspired by his design for the K series trucks only making it fit the blazer.
Slight warpage on driver side. Doing some heat straightening and just need to metal finish the rest.
