    LMC Dash Pad Supplier

    Just Dashes process sounds like they re-cover your dash using vinyl manufactured in the chosen color and not simply dyed/painted. Am I correct? Plan to ask them on Monday but I figure someone here knows.

    LMC Dash Pad Supplier

    I requested a quote from Just Dashes to recover my existing dash. Haven’t got a price yet but figured it was worth exploring. That way I would retain my factory frame so fit should not be a question. My dash was apparently recovered by an upholstery shop and has several seams and other issues...

    LMC Dash Pad Supplier

    Unfortunately I am building a show truck. Finding a show quality dash pad seems akin to finding a Unicorn though. :emotions122:

    LMC Dash Pad Supplier

    I checked with Jegs but they couldn’t ship until mid-December, which is also when Dashes Direct told me they would have my dash available again. I think I’ll wait to hear from DD and order it then. Hopefully the fit will be OK.

    LMC Dash Pad Supplier

    Shopping for a dash pad for my Blazer and was looking at LMC. Read here that their pads were supplied by Dashes Direct, but when I asked LMC they said that was not true. They also didn’t volunteer who their supplier was. I figured maybe someone here would know. Dashes Direct is out of my dash...

    That can was so ridiculous/hilarious I just had to add it.

    Let’s see your memorabilia?!

    Some of the items in my shop. The quart size oil cans are all full, all but a few are metal cans. The 1955 Roadmaster bike was made by the Cleveland Welding Co. in, no surprise, 1955! I ride it regularly, especially at the beach on vacation. The wife’s father was really into the Whizzer...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Here is everything that I’m getting rid of. I have no idea what any of it’s worth. The tall JL Audio speaker measures 19” tall x 11” wide x 5” deep. The two smaller boxes are 8.5” tall x 12” wide x 7” deep at bottom, reducing to 5” at top. These all are surprisingly heavy and seem very well...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Actually all of it is. Kick panel speakers, Kenwood amp and the three box speakers. I’ll post pics of it all tomorrow.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Finished removing the last of the aftermarket stereo equipment and restored the kick panels to something at least closer to stock. When I got the Blazer it had what I’m sure is a nice high-end stereo system installed. There were 3 big, heavy speaker boxes in the back, speakers in the kick...

    big block starter replacement

    I installed a starter on my 454 (early 70s LS5) with a Delco Delphi one for a 99 Suburban from Oreilly. Also used the slightly shorter mounting bolts. Starter P/N R613326B. Dorman P/N for bolts was 678-107. Everything bolted right up and works beautifully. Starter is a small permanent magnet...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    So it’s November 11 in central VA and I’m going once again driving around in the topless blazer wearing nothing but jeans and a t-shirt. The new ColdCase radiator and fan unit works great. I gave the old radiator (a Summit aluminum unit installed by PO in June 24) a good look and saw why it...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Finished installing the new radiator and fans and tested everything to make sure I had no leaks and the fans cycled on and off at the right temps. All was good so went for a beautiful fall drive. Seems nuts to be driving around in a topless Blazer on Nov 7 wearing a jeans and t-shirt! (Temps...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Installing a Cold Case radiator with twin 14” fans in the Blazer. Did the same upgrade on my 57 Chevy with a 383 Stroker years back and it worked wonderfully. One day I was out cruising in the 57 and got stuck in a traffic backup due to an accident. It was upper 90s but engine temps never...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Had a perfect fall drive in the Blazer today, after which I pulled it back into the shop and set the fan in front of it with the shop doors cracked open. Wife saw this and asked why I was cooling off Billy (her name for the Blazer) like he was a hot horse! Told her that I was trying to blow...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Re-dyed the Blazers spare tire cover pretty close to the original Sand color. Wife is making a BLAZER decal for it that should look nice. Looking for an original bracket to mount spare vertically behind rear bench seat.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Thanks Andy. I went down the “Factory Correct” rabbit hole a ways back with my 69 Boss 302. Expensive trip! My goal with the Blazer is do it my way but still look factory, at least to the majority of folks. Must be close as many folks look at it at shows and comment “I didn’t know they made a...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    A bit more detailing under the hood and installed new plug wires on the Blazer. Replaced the plugs a week or so ago when I had the inner fenders out.

    Air Cleaner Stud

    Threaded rod works, but I picked this up at O'Reilly's because I also wanted that over-sized stamped wing nut.

    2 post shop lift

    @Craig Nedrow what booklet are you referring to for lift points? My factory service manuals show the lift points for my vehicles but just have to do what seems right for others.

    When your truck is on the lift and hurricane remnants knock out the power you're at the mercy of the power company as to when you lower it back down.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Removed the inner fenders for cleanup and detailing. Also provides access to rust-prone areas. Didn’t find rust but applied some POR15 in spots. Also replaced spark plugs as they were super easy to get to with inner fenders off. Not real happy with the inner fender appearance even after sand...

    I believe that’s the one I bought in 2016. Use it all the time (Blazer is up on it now) and have never had any problems.
