Ok guys I just got me a 2000 x-cab z71 Chevy 1/2 ton and it has stock 16in rims on it. I have a set of 15in custom rims and would like to know if they will fit and if so will it do any damage to my drive train or any thing else. The stock rims are 6 lug and so are the old one, got em off a 4x4...

:( I was sorry to let this old truck go, but I could not afford to keep wasteing my money. So, I sold the 'ol blue and got this....:D Good news is, my wife said that I could eventually find me a new project.

I could be wrong, but I don't think there is a differnce. I took a steering colum out of a 74 and put it in my 83 and there was no differnce. Hopefullay someone will correct me if I am wrong. Good Luck.

Man I wish I could help you but, times are tuff for every one right now. Have you tried a scrap yard? I found one just the other day for about $25 and it wasn't perfect but it looked better than mine. Who knows you might get lucky. Don't worry about asking ???? these guys are pretty good folks.

gotta agree with "don m" he gave you some good advice. If there are any junk yards in your area you might do some scouting for the parts you need, if any. nice looking truck to start with and good luck.

glad to hear at least the front is done, I had the same problem when I put my bumper on, everything was straight but I had to use spacers and it worked out good. wish you the best. School....:confused:...:eek:...that's a bad word!!!j/k hope it goes well for you.

that is one tuff looking blazer, you did good!!!! :cool: good luck with the rest...need pics.

:eek: that's funny!!!!! well I was under my truck messing with the tranny and looked for some kind of hose and I've looked in every book I have but none of them say anything about a drain hose. :( Anyway I'm gonna chat with a buddie of mine and see what he knows{he is old school mech.} works...

Glad to see that some things don't change. hope everything on that monster works out for ya. Ive been working on mine, had to replace the flywheel just a few days ago, keep having problems with the starter and it hanging up or grinding, so I just broke down and put a new one on it. That was not...

not real sure, mine always drained from the passanger side some where around the a/c unit, never really looked for it....sorry...:( a guy told me one time to pull the screens off {between the hood and glass} by the wipers and make sure there are no leaves or built up dust. sometime this will...

yep, this is sound advice....

I have an 83 p/u and mine is located under the dash between the glove box and a/c unit. It might be clogged up and full of trash or something like that. Mine was full ol leaves once. But now I don't have a/c got rid of it when I replaced motor. Hope this helps, good luck. You tasted...

:confused:...not real sure but, you might try the parts section here on this site. Or try parts for sale. I'm sure one of those might have what you need. Or have you tried your local scrap yard? good luck.

howdy, "flaming" was it hard to do the gauges?? been thinkin' bout doing the same thing , what I would like to know is did you have to cut the panel too make them fit and how did you wire them?? You get rid of all the other wiring?? Thanks TC.

:mad: two trips later and I finally have the right master cylinder, I kept telling that moron it was wrong....:mad: anyway got the part and also got new rear brake kit for both sides, hopefully going to get them put on tommrow. I know that this truck will or is not in its prime anymore but...

:D....okay its offical I need a new master cylinder......:mad: I'm seriously getting tired of putting money I don't have into this truck, yah I know that's what happens with these old trucks and no matter what I will always be putting money into it. But its hard when this is an evryday...

:D yeah I know what you mean, I'm on disabialitey{sp} and get one check every month, so its hard to do any work on my truck. But that's why I do alot of scouting around the junk yards, parts are cheap and there are alot of them. Take your time and you will find what you need and get it done. It...

:o...not to be nosey, but how tight of a budget?? If you are like me {penny pincher}...:)....then I would start with the interior first its alot eaiser and cheaper. You can get pretty much all of this at your local parts house or better yet walmart. Carpet, floor mats and even seat covers. I...
