No problem It's lookin' good Are you going to do quad tail/brake/turns?

 

[yodaddy4200]

I dont know. I wanna get my switchback working properly first lol i think one of the bulbs are not seated right!! Its snowing out now so ill mess with it later!! They havent givin me any problems lately!!

Now for quad turn/brakes i have to splice into the trailer harness right? I remember you also talking about needing more 3157 sockets?

Will quad turn/brakes affect towing??

For quad tails you'll need new harnesses for the middle spots on your tails and yes for quad turn/brakes you splice into the trailer harness. I don't think it'll affect towing, but I've never towed.

This the one? OffRoad TB - View topic - Fire_fighter4215 build - 2004 Chevy Trailblazer

 

[fireman4215]

That would be mine. Lol it's in dire need of updating.

 

[fletch09]

Im still not decided on lowering!! i want to but i dont want to loose functionality this is my DD. Im sure Tony has a kit that wont have any issues. Honestly i dont have the $$ right this second, i just blew my wad on the wheels n tires!! If i do lower it'll probably be early next year (Tax time!)

Next mods are stereo, trashcan delete, and whatever good ideas you guys give me!:biggrin:

looking good

Dirt roads?

 

[MTouz]

Dirt roads?

Love the dirt roads up in MI! I lived near GR MI awhile back and visit often. Always fun to dirty up the truck on them roads.

 

[redleg6]

buffed out the headlights, the cheap replacement I have on the driver's side has a laminate that is starting to peel off the top...dammit

 

[shrek77]

Joelinna's Super 40 series muffler came via UPS at 9 this morning. Waiting patiently for Friday to get my exhaust guy to tell me how much he'll charge to install and do the resonator delete at the same time... I used a promo code through Advance auto and got the muffler for $65.00

 

[AV8ER]

Ordered some Moog 81112 front springs and new upper strut mounts which should be here Wednesday. Also ordering airlift 1000 in about 5min. If things work out like I believe I will be in the lifted club by the end of the week. Might just have the least lifted trailblazer out there! But its got to be better than none. Also I finally got to use the roof racks for the first time today to transport my kayak

 

[DDonnie]

Got to test the 4x4 on midnight for the first time this morning. Works great!

 

[kjkim93]

Dipped it yesterday took a picture in the morning before my 8 am class. So still fairly dark I like how the colors contrast View attachment 26873 it seems every time I dip something it rains or snow lol

 

[AV8ER]

Well the parts came in a day early! Got the struts redone with new upper mounts and new moog 81112 springs. It seems like the ext actually have longer springs stock. From what I've read the standard freesprung length is 15.5 in but mine were about 16.25. The new moogs are a bit stiffer and added almost the lift I wanted but not quite. Least its nothing money can't fix LOL. Oh well lots of time and trips to the autopart store cause they gave me a broken spring compressor. Took enough pictures so I can make an article this weekend. I'm up to 34 5/8 inch on the front fenders from 33 1/2 so basically a 1in gain. A topic ive seen a lot is how to get the knuckle off of the joint at the lower A arm, I posted a pic of how I hit it with a sledge hammer a few times to get it loose. It takes a few good swings with a 3-4 lb hammer but it works. Be sure if you use this method to leave the nut on a bit to keep from hitting the threads!

 

[Cable810]

2.5 hours and its out!! I allready had the calipers removed and evrything else so that way I just had to remove the control arms and panhead bar. Otherwise it would have taken me longer.

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

Took it to the shop yesterday, got an oil change, and apparently my rotors and pads were worn down to practically, nothing, and I do not have the equipment, time, or place to work on it, so the shop was kind enough to drain my entire bank account and replace all them for me.

 

[NinjuhhNutz]

JUST got her home from the stealership
looked over at the little roll of vinyl I ordered...and couldn't resist
I don't think it looks too bad for my first wrapping. Minor imperfections, but considering it was a 5 min job on my kitchen table with a hair dryer, the next one, will be darn near perfect.

Wow Chris, you have those legendary headlights? I've heard stories about them, but I've never seen them actually installed on a TB before.!!

 

[DDonnie]

Installed the stereo into midnight's armrest. Had to remove the vent duct for the backseat and disconnect the wiring so nobody accidentally turns it on. It didnt move much air anyway. Also installed the DRL Cap mod and finished the wiring for the switched 12v socket in the dash. Worked on the dash bezel a bit to get the tablet better installed, but I'm nowhere near finished with that yet. Also got the wiring done for the subs, whenever i get around to buying a new amp all i will need to do is plug it in.

Finally ordered my Depo tail lights last week, and installed them today. :wootwoot: Will post some night pics when I get a chance.

 

[jrSS]

Hey those look good!!

 

[CdnGMan]

Hey those look good!!

They totally change the look of the back end...

It's like looking at Canyonaro - only shorter...

Thinking about getting a set of these. Lets see those night shots!

 

[JCJARHEAD]

Looks great on your truck!

 

[jeffro312]

Wasn't today but recently battery died too quickly for my liking so I went to sears and bought a

Die hard platinum agm battery for $197.00. Had the cash so I bought the best of the best I could research.

No more dead battery after 5 minutes of radio play with car off.

Also noticed lights don't dim when bass hits or I roll window down lights used to flicker.

I'm happy

 

[ConeKilrAutoX]

got the old exhaust manifold off (NO BROKEN BOLTS! I used a 1 week soak in pb blaster and 5 min per bolt with a propane torch haha) now I can start welding / fitting my up and down pipes that just barely fit!

 

[BoldAdventure]

Rolled my new tires into the garage.

Now I must mount these bad boys!

I wanna see what the wheels look like.

 

[STLtrailbSS]

I fixed my bank1 lean code with MAF cleaner the whole time I thought well this is just stupid i could blow on this for the same effect. Put about 30 miles on it after clear never came back it has been coming back almost instantly. We shall see.

Thanks guys. I am very happy with the new tails. They do completely change the look of the rear end as you said, even more so in person. I will be posting some dusk shots. I cant get a good night pic because they are blinding in the dark and they show up on camera as a red blur with the turn signals or brake lights on. #1 Here is the best pic I could get of the tail light portion (no push on the brake pedal). #2 Below that is an example of the blinding brake lights. #3 is the tail light bottom portion and turn signal blurry top portion. #4 is the tail lights (no brakes) and emergency flash turn signals. And finally #5 is the tail lights, backup leds (3157 bulbs) and the emergency flash turn signals.

Will try to get some clearer pics at dusk tomorrow!
