    Carb question

    There should be a blade next to the ignition (IGN) fuse in you fusee block. Just run the wire to there.

    Craziest antitheft idea yet.

    I don't think the average person would know how to drive this... Since it has an un-modified NP203 Transfer Case and Lock-out Hubs, when I park it in an area that is iffy I unlock one of the front hubs. It won't drive anywhere until they figure that one out.

    Are rubber valve cover gaskets JUNK? Pic inside

    Using standard Cork Fel-Pro Gaskets with a thin layer of Vaseline on both sides, force spreaders and not over-torquing I've never had them leak. And they won't stick to either the Valve Cover or the Head. The Vaseline works well on paper Gaskets too. No scraping when you need to replace them.

    Freak Injury Upon Another Freak Injury To Hand Requiring Emergency Surgery (Tool Safety)

    Wow. Glad your doing better. Most of the times that I injure myself it's due to being lazy and performing tasks not according to safety standards or to being in a hurry to complete them.

    Rear wheel drive with NP-203?

    My old NP203 had the conversion, my new one does not. I like it better with the full-time. It just feels right.

    It’s a disease

    The bumper sticker on the back of my Blazer reads, "US Marine; We don't suffer from insanity, we enjoy every moment of it" Welcome aboard!

    Power Tour

    Have fun. Not going on that one, but I did the whole 2014 Power Tour from Charolette, NC to the Wisconsin Dells in my '74 K5 without the roof. It was awesome.

    Need a starter heat shield...

    I have a similar one on a starter that I just took off my Blazer. I went to a Hight Torque mini starter. PM me your address and I'll ship it to you.

    Will this roll bar fit my 73?

    1988 would have been a small truck, so it won't fit. In the early 70's Ranger was a trim level on the Full-size line.

    Any muscle car fans out there

    I had a '77 Buick Century with that roofline. Best car I ever got for free. My boss' mom lost her drivers license. So he asks me, "You like Buicks, right?"

    Any muscle car fans out there

    I've owned: 1969 Camaro 1970 Monte Carlo 1969 El Camino 1972 Comet GT 1969 Buick GS350 I was looking to buy another muscle car in 2007. Due to the high prices a bought the '74 Blazer ($3000) instead. My Summer driver is a 2010 Camaro SS 6-Speed manual that I bought new. Not a classic muscle...

    Bad Master Cylinder?

    Try Stomping on the brake pedal like during a Panick stop. Then try to bleed it again. I've had that work before.

    Np203 part time conversion?

    They did that in the late 70's and early 80's to lower their fleet fuel mileage to meet EPA regulations. The reason that International dropped the Scout is because they had no "economy cars" to average in with them like the automakers did.

    Blazer/Jimmy hardtop bolts

    Sorry, forgot to reply. Yes, my '74 also uses 5/19-18 UNC threaded bolts. But with the full convertible, all are the shorter version.

    Blazer/Jimmy hardtop bolts

    Mine are in my tool box at home. I'll check the size tonight. Once you know the size, you can probably get them from the McMaster-Carr site.

    Looking for wheel lock nuts

    When I got my new tires, I had them replace my lock-nuts with standard Lug Nuts. Just paranoid that I'll lose the key. I'll give them to you if you pay shipping.

    Got Stickers?

    ReefkoiC10, nice stickers. Reminded me of a Corvette that I saw on the Power Tour a few years ago. His sticker read, "Hybrid Vehicle, Burns Gasoline AND Rubber".

    1973 K5 Blazer full removable top a little high but is it rare???

    Yep. I've got some badly misaligned sheet metal to prove that, but I wouldn't trade it for a '76 or later with a better body. the full convertible just feels more fun to me.

    Belt jumped to other pulley

    Most likely it is a misalignment issue. I used to have a recurring issue with that. When the PO installed the Headers the attachment point on the Exhaust Manifold for the Power Steering Pump no longer existed causing a misalignment between the pulleys. I bought an aftermarket Pump Mount that...

    Who is or has run a 307?

    Seems like this is two conversations in the same thread, so I'll comment on both: All governments suck, just leave me the hell alone. 307 is a decent little engine. I had a 307, 2Bbl, 3-speed manual '69 Camaro in the early 80's. It could out-run some 350 autos in heavier cars.

    Headlights and blinker problems. Again!!

    Damn, I hate being right all the time. Glad that you got it fixed. Those stupid little issues can be very hard to diagnose.
