    Highback Bucket Seats

    Yep! those are 82 K5 seats and fabric. I have the exact same in mine. I'd love to have an extra set of fabric as my drivers seat is starting to show a lot of wear. Thoughts on just selling the fabric?

    Vintage air versus LMC A/C Kit

    Thanks! I have already replaced the Heater core, and cleaned everything around it. I replaced the felts, but didn't replace the vacuum pods. Thanks everyone for your insight!

    Vintage air versus LMC A/C Kit

    Thanks for the insight everyone. Craig 85, when you say that you replaced everything in the system prior to install, what other elements are you talking about other than the Compressor, lines and the accumulator?

    Vintage air versus LMC A/C Kit

    I see several threads regarding Vintage Air. But before I drop that much on that system, I wanted to see if anyone had used the LMC kit that utilizes the original ductwork, but basically replaces everything else? I'm not afraid of the work involved, my K5 is an original A/C truck, but the...

    1982 K5 Towing Capacity

    Thanks for the responses everyone. It's stock height, running new 32" tires, so plenty of rubber to the road. The plan is to use it as a secondary tow vehicle for the JetSki's or the boat. Neither is over 3,500 lbs. My main concern was the short wheel base. Stay safe everyone!

I put a transmission cooler on, rebuilt all the brake system, new shocks, etc. So, mechanically I know it's sound and stout...

    AC/Heater Help

    Yes, I have. I made sure that the throw on the cable when it actuates the lever behind the glovebox takes it from one extreme to the other

    AC/Heater Help

    I know there has been a lot of posts about AC/Heater controls, etc. I have an 82 K5, mostly original (except engine is a crate 350). My question is that regardless of where the heat selector is placed, hot air is ALWAYS coming out of the heater vent down below as well as the vents. The upper...

    82 Blazer taking shape

    Hey there all, First time poster. I've read so many of the posts over the past few months after finding this site! This is my latest project. First one was a 79 C20 in high school, next was an 85 Suburban after a couple kids, and now this 82 Blazer. It was a POS when I bought it 2 years...
