  1. K5 Blazer

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Dropped my Blazer off at the Rear End shop after spending the last two years doing a frame off restoration including LS swap and new trans. The rear end gears 3.07 were way too tall after putting 33" tires and a 4L60E transmission. Can't wait to get her back.

    Hydro boost brakes awful sound after finishing motor swap

    I installed a hydroboost on my 1973 K5 Blazer while doing a LS swap. First I jacked up the front end and with the motor running, went lock to lock about 10 times.That purged a majority of the air.

    Rear Sag on One Side

    I installed new springs and my Blazer sags on the driver side. I thought about switching the leafs and seeing if the sag moves to the other side.

    Awesome to hear you got it sorted out! The LS swaps can definitely have some curve balls.

    1985 K2500 Build/LS Swap

    Does your transfer case have a VSS? I did a swap on my 1973 4x4 Blazer and I had an issue with the speed sensor. I installed a NP208 transfer case and I needed an electrical speed sensor to talk with the terminator max ECU I installed.

    Where does this dash part go?

    You are correct, it's the bracket that goes to the dash from the pedal box support on the passenger side of the steering wheel column. Unfortunately, all that would need to come out to install that piece. That's not going to happen at this point so Ricko66 is correct. Thanks!

    1973 K5 Blazer Radio Antenna Issue

    Came up with my own solution. Windshield button is a 1/4" button. Cannibalize the cable lead into the windshield adapter. Removed the button that was on the adapter and replaced it with a 1/4" button I found at OSH.

    BORA wheel spacers

    After further research, there is a 3" difference between the front axle and rear axle, so 1.5" spacer for each side on the rear axle would equal out the front and rear.

    Torque Converter Recommendation

    The gear ratio is 3.07. Sounds like I will be getting a stock torque converter from the recommendations above. This Blazer has not been on the road for more than 30 years. I just want to get it running and down the road and then I can look at changing the gear ratio. Thanks for all the input!
