****CAUTION, PLEASE READ****
If you look at GMSB members you find thousands of new members with few or no posts. This seems to me to be a big security risk. They should be removed as members. There’s got to be a way to do that other than 1 at a time, as the moderators don’t have the time to do it that way. -
****CAUTION, PLEASE READ****
If you are PM’d by a member asking you to email someone, take a look at their previous posts. Seems scammers like to join and do little else but say “Welcome” to new members. They also have super rare trucks like C300s. lol -
What have you done to your square lately??
Got a bunch of misc o-rings so will try that. That way wife won’t end up with all her crafty felt missing. :D Thanks! -
What have you done to your square lately??
Gutted the dash in preparation for new dashpad, instrument bezel, radio, dash-mounted speaker and heater/AC controls. Took all the ductwork out and added some sticky-back felt where the registers rotate to tighten them up. Registers themselves look good and will go back in. -

Aluminum side molding removal
Thanks Zach. I’m going to look tonight and see if there is a way to carefully open the closed end of the trim piece. If the end can be opened the whole piece will slide right off the clips. Other than that I’ll wait to see what your folks might suggest.- WFarm

Aluminum side molding removal
Thanks Zach. I had found those videos before I posed the question here. Thought they would help but in the removal video he does not show the bedside trim. That straight piece above the front tire is exactly how my long bedside piece is mounted, but the bedside piece is closed at the front end...- WFarm

Aluminum side molding removal
I don’t see any 3M tape, but can get a peek at the metal clips. Plus seeing as it moves back and forth freely until the “closed” end up by the door hits one of those clips would indicate it’s not taped. Don’t know how to get those darned clips to release without breaking something.- WFarm

Aluminum side molding removal
Any tricks or special tools for removing the aluminum rear side molding on my 75 Blazer? I remove the screw back by the tailgate and can easily slide the molding back a few inches until the front end hits the clip. How do you release the molding from the clips without destroying anything?- WFarm

Drove it! Beautiful January day, sunny and highs around 60. Went to town for horse and dog food, a couple groceries, picked up dry cleaning and stopped at the ABC store. (For those outside VA or the USA, ABC is the state-run liquor store) Tomorrow the Blazer goes to the paint and body shop to... -

Oh Jeez, too funny. When my daughter saw the Blazer she said something to the effect “Leave it to dad to get a plate that is pronounced Booby”. -

I noticed the other night that my LH headlight was failing, so went ahead and replaced both headlights. While I was at it cleaned and painted the battery tray and hardware. Simple job but worth it. -

@JamesSam i bought my new tank, pump/sending unit and selector valve from Oreilly. All fit great and worked fine for the years prior to selling the truck. (My 1987 R1500, 350 TBI) -
What have you done to your square lately??
Taking advantage of the nasty weather and continuing detailing the underside. Back in 2015/2016 the company I worked for had an open house for nuclear utility bigwigs to tour our shop and we had these hats made up and handed out. They were snatched up! -

Helps prevent corrosion. WD-40 was developed by the Rocket Chemical Company under contract to the DOD to protect the thin aluminum outer shells of nuclear warheads from corrosion as they stood in their silos. Water Displacement Formula # 40 (hence WD40) was the ticket. Eventually the DOD... -

Several smaller jobs today. Replaced the cowl screen after spraying the inside of the cowl with WD40 and wiping it down. Cowl was very clean, no rust. Then replaced the tailgate glass guides as the old ones were chipped and broken. Replaced the firewall power distribution block and PCV valve and... -
What have you done to your square lately??
Installed a super high-tech security system! Seriously, the Blazer is parked in a locked building when not out for a drive as per insurance requirements but I was always nervous about parking it somewhere, like Lowe’s or Tractor Supply while I grabbed a few things as it is stupid easy for...
