    Question, are all full size square body Blazers referred to as K5 ?

    To answer your question OP. Full size SQUAREBODY Blazers ran from 1973-1991. 1973-1987 2 wheel drive was C series and 4 wheel drive was K series. In 1988 GM introduced the NBS or new body style pickups. These new style trucks got the C and K designations. Blazers, suburbans, and 1 ton trucks...

    I have a kill switch wired to the fuel pump. It’ll crank but won’t start. Thief hopefully thinks it’s just a POS and won’t take time looking into it.

    10 Bolt Tie Rod question

    Sounds like you maybe have different manufacturer parts mixed up on the front end? You should have some visible threads in the slot that would allow for any adjustments. Without changing the tie rod, you could try to find a longer adjusting sleeve.
