LOL , well hopefully the person making the bumpers will have a contact number or site OUTSIDE of ZR2USA.com . That way , even us non z owners can buy one . Also , I hope that they make them adaptable for the Regular S10 Chassis . Since the Zr2 is different , is it not ? I sure wish i could ask these...

Blaze One

Probably sell alot more if they allowed Nonzr2 owners to post there .
Sorry I shouldn't have brought that up again .

Blaze One

k thanks i try the cleaner first .

So... I have an erratic fuel gauge , stalling , not starting at all sometimes . Started yesterday when I thought I ran out of gas because my guage was at empty and the truck would turn over , but wouldn't start . So I put more gas in , and it started right up . Then today , I was driving around and ...

Blaze One

Well , I signed up at Texas zr2 site now , I can't believe zr2usa won't let other S10 owners in . Stupid

Couldn't I just send in a pic of any zr2 and say it was mine ?
I don't think i wanna be part of a forum with such a attitude though . But it would be nice to get some answers sometimes .

Blaze One

Now swap a Crate Motor 350 in place of that 4banger , jk I know it is DD , but still very cool

Blaze One

I still think you need to send pic of your ZR2 to get a account on the site .
I just tryed to registar and no luck .

Blaze One

that definetly sucks , there was a lot of Great info on that site , That is NOT on zr2usa site . Atleast they changed the rule about having to own a Zr2 to post though . I wish that they would have gave us some warning so that people could get some info off the site if they wanted it for there recor...

Blaze One

hey now , where are the pics of the 06 malibu SS ?

Blaze One

Did u ever notice any improvment in mpg?

Blaze One

That talk of lowering..... I had a crazy idea the other day. Find a regular crew cab for cheap....High miles, rough body, etc..... Drop it about 4-6" put a coilover front suspension on it. Throw some 18" C5 ZO6 wheels on it, ZO6 brakes up front, convert the tranny over to 4L80E, and adapt it to a S...

when my blazer started to need constant adjusting while driving , I took it in to the garage and found that I had "play" in the pitman/idler arm(s) .
After replaceing those , it was greatly improved .

Blaze One

nice lookin set , you mean you cleaned the engine bay and didn't even post a pic of them , geeez

Blaze One

It looks like I need to find some time sooner than I thought .
Smoke started coming outa my Hazard button area today , that can't be good

Blaze One

i think HJ's idea is best . Either a custom mount or use a ZR2 tire carrier . i am working on that my self , just trying to source parts in this freakin area is hard .

Blaze One

your best bet and "safest" would be to check with your dealer . you have to follow that lease agreement or else you may get "in trouble"

Blaze One

This may or may not be old news to some , but it looks as if there is a great probability of a SAS kit for the S10 platform . The price seems reasonable too . Sounds as if the first install will be in late July . Utilizing a TJ Dana 30/44 . Check it out @ http://forum.zr2.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?...

Blaze One

i am not supprised to see more and more S10's (including CC's ) going up for sale . Alot of them are nearing that "window" of trading in value , that if you pass ( as I did ) there is no turning back on longterm owner ship . I plan on just keeping mine for a camping/offroad epedition vehicle and pur...

Blaze One

I believe you can put a 35" tire under there with no lift . And it may not increase the overall hieght of the truck either , since that is a 20" rim on there now .

Blaze One

very nice truck , don't feel as if you are going to the "dark side" , you have every right since GM isn't offering much these days .
Are you getting rid of those "bling bling" rims ? or is this going to be a street truck ?
with 4x4 i sure hope not .
Congrats - I can only dream .

Blaze One

I have heard mixed results can occur . Basically I think the technology has something to do with inertia and other scienctific stuff . I don't know for sure . But I have heard bad reviews . That could be because the users didn't set it up correct though . It would be interesting to hear from people ...

Blaze One

Also search for the marvelous mystery lift , by HJ , way better choice to run larger tires with out a 6" Super lift or The BDS lift .

Blaze One

Was this ever completed , i am thinking this is a wise and easy install for the summer , especially with all the tranny issues i have had , it would be good to keep track of temps .

Blaze One

deep "dish" or rims with a wide lip look good too , make the rim look as if it is super wide .

Blaze One

I just did a very quick cut and paste of one type of rim , but if you squint your eyes a bit , you get the idea of what it may look like . http://www3.telus.net/public/a6a60430/balckCC.jpg

Blaze One

gotcha , if you can get me a pic or two of the rims , i may bebale to patch some together on photoshop for ya , I am curious as to what this will look like too . How much do those rims cost anyways ? BMW & Cheap don't mix . BTW - are you thinkin of the X5 or car line up of rims , there are alot of d...

Blaze One

I have never seen BMW wheels on a s10 before , but photoshop could help you out with that

I also like the PA3's , but would rather have ZR5 rims , there are just so many PA3's out there , and very little of the ZR5 type

Blaze One

I am surpised that this is the first Recall for the Coly/Canon platform .

Blaze One

thanks , I will try and find some time to get at it . Thanks again .

Blaze One

thank you , but i was stopped at Step #1 - Disable SIR system ....? Every thing else i understand .

Blaze One

I was quoted $489 cndoallars to get have a replacment switch installed ..... Not gonna happen .

Does anyone have a clue if i could just pull out a fuse and disable the whole clicking option completly ?

Blaze One

so you bought a "weld you self kit " ? or did you just improvise and make one similar to it ?

Blaze One

Wow , that is one the best lookin bumper i have seen for the S-series , and its not even finished !

Feel like selling the plans ?

Your blazer is my blazer's dream

Blaze One

yep it is a whinning noise , I posted a topic about it before , and was told that it was semi-normal . Ok what if i re phrase the question . IF and When my fuel pump goes , can i replace it with a In-line pump ? assuming the stock pump is a in-line type , is it ? I have heard that replacing fuel pum...

Blaze One

My fuel pump is making some noise , I am afraid of it failing at anytime now . So.... I have seen In-line Fuel pumps at some stores , and was wondering if they will work on our trucks ? Is the stock pump a in-line type pump ? or is it in the tank ? Which capacity/flow rate should i be looking for ? ...

Blaze One

I think my blazer has every known ( and some unknown) problem that a S10 based truck could have , my wipers started doing this about 5 months ago . it is so annoying !
But not big enough problem to tear into the wiper assembly either .
Another point lost for GM .

Blaze One

very cooll , wet or dry system ? did you find it difficult to install ?

Blaze One

the blanket covering may be to hide the Spiderman Costume , they may not want everyone taking pics and gathering around , A man in a spiderman costume will bring that kind of attention

Blaze One

lol , no problem . glad you can make use of them .

Blaze One

I hope Muslhed dosen't mind , but I edited a couple pics of the Blazers on the 30* RTI ramp. The blue blazer has the sway bar disco'd and rear bar removed . THis pic may give a better visual of the gained travel . http://www3.telus.net/public/a6a60430/2JustinsstockZR2Blazer.jpg http://www3.telus.net...

well , now my 99 blazer is doing the above mentioned problem , Clicking after the turn signal has been returned to "netural" . !!!!!
It never fails ... everytime i get my truck back from getting something fixed at the garage , something else breaks or malfunctions shortly after .

Blaze One

I just got my truck back from getting a much needed tune up . But I realized that there is this 3 holed orange plug sticking out behind my driverside front wheel area . See pic below , anyways , from what i can tell , it is attached in the engine compartment to the Optional Block Heater cord ( looks...

which model of monroes did you get ?

Blaze One

great deal , with the money you saved on the PD unit , you can upgrade that tranny !!

Blaze One

As we all know , the front ends are a weak point of the S10 platform . I have been looking at all the different options a person could pursue if they wanted to do a SAS . There are a ton of things to consider . Axles , springs , steering , driveshafts , mounting crossmembers .... this list goes on ....

Blaze One

I am sure glad i didn't buy those Rancho5000's i was lookin at yesterday ....
I am going to cheapy route today , Monroe Sensatrac's , on sale and i don't really care if they are not best for offroad , I don't plan on using this truck for longer term period .

Blaze One

George , maybe since you regeared the computer is not calculating proper rpm's/speed . You may need to invest in a powerprogramer if you have not already , and the reprogram your shift points .

Blaze One

yes thank you . After lookin at all the comparison pics and comparison pics with other makes of truck , i can clearly see it is worth the time to do this mod . Especially when you compare the amount of travel up the ramp of a Disco'd ZR2 to the Excursion/Jeeps . It will sure shut those Jeep guys and...

Wow , your actually thinking of making a ELECTRONIC sway disco' ?!? , I guess you don't take the easy way out do you , this will definetly be something to see if you do make it .

Blaze One

hmmm... i wonder if all these wiring issues may have somethign to do with the fact That if i "jiggle" my turn singal lever , my left brake goes out , put if i "jiggle" it upwards a very little , it comes back on .

These are the fine points that make every Chevrolet a Chevrolet !!!

Blaze One

yep i believe so , in the first pic , you can see that the bar is still flipped back ( connected ) , later in some shots , you can acutally see the bar flipped forward(disco'd) and held there with something . I have a feeling that there are some people in the "backgroud" 8) of this thread doing some...

As you are going to soon find out , any shock is tech. better than the stockers , but if price is an issue that just go with a GAS charged shock , not hydro. Any gas charged shock is better that the stockers for sure . The favorite around here are Bilstiens . But others have had good results with Pr...

If you look at Muslhed's gallery ( link is in his sig. ) you can find a couple of close up's of his sway disco setup , seems fairly simple too . Although , I still don't know what parts are needed , or if this could be don't with the rear swaybar aswell .

So i found a deal on 2 8"round IPF offroad lights , I have 2 choices : mount them to my roof rack or buy a bar of some sort and mount them on the front of my truck . I would prefer to mount them on the rack , because i want the option of being able to swivel one around to illuminate the rear if need...

Blaze One

Make sure you ask the seller how much shipping is going to cost . Especially to canada , Complete Value told me it was going to cost $94 shippin for 2 sets of spacers .

That is not all that bad. I think I paid $120 for my first set and close to $100 for the last set that I bought.

That is just the shipping cost ( $94 ) !

Blaze One

yep it sure does , that extra $200usd in shipping is a pain in the glute' for sure . But there are no Canadian suppliers for most aftermarket products . I would also have to pay about $94usd if i want a set of wheel spacers !!! i am still trying to find a supplier for those up here too .

Blaze One

nope does not include taxes , and if it is made in the USA , it usually doesn't have duty . If they ship it with UPS , then there will be a undetermined broker fee . But if they ship it with USPS than there will be no broker fee . Taxes are added at the border , on the converted total amount ( produ...

Blaze One

I also heard that White Grease can help too . Although it does dry up after 6months or so .

Blaze One

FYI Canadians ... aprox. $200 usd to ship to BC

Blaze One

just hide ! ... I just kidding . Congrats and Good luck .

ha ha ha ! , i was just think about this last night , I just couldn't find the damn squeeking ! .
You could regularly see me pound my fist against the console . I have found that the position your seat is in also makes difference too . I try the silcone thing though ,

Blaze One

Wow , those look fairly good too , and have a reasonable price aswell , I didn't understand the descriptions , but can you order the winch bumper , with out the bars coming off the top and up infront of the grill area ? I am just waiting to see if they ship to canada , and how much it would cost me ...

Blaze One

Supposedly the new 07 rubicon will have this option aswell , only time will tell how reliable it is , seems to me that that first year electronic stuff has some bugs that will need to be worked out . Very Cool though .

Holy shamoly ! , i didn't expect that kinda flex from just discoing the sway's . I say it is a mod well worth the price for some hardware ! . can't wait to see the final product(s)
