Got one of the half-axles today.
Thank God it’s not the push-in spring clip type, it’s 6 bolts to a flange that comes out of the transfer case.
Probably have to pull the struts, not a biggie because I can do it without a spring compressor. Might as well replace them while I’m at it.
Other half axle and calipers tomorrow - the whole area I’ll be working in is drenched with de-greaser now and will get hit with the power washer before I start pulling the big stuff...
Sposed to be a stretch of about 5 days of really nice weather starting tomorrow, dam glad I ain’t out there doing it in the rain (or snow!)
Lots of people bitch about those old Blazers, but man, I love working on the stuff! Not to mention my ‘66 Impala Sedan....
Question for anybody who might still be following this thread:
Turns out I need to replace the lower parts of the brake lines (down in both wheel wells) where the brake line is rubber coated.
Is it a good idea to use plumber type teflon tape on those fittings? I don’t want to go through all the work and get it back together and find out I have a leak...
