I'll have to check through my notes, but I may have missed a step or two.

Re: Complete instructions for disassembling and assembling the entire truck
 

The disassembly is the easy part its the reassembly that takes time and money.

Re: Complete instructions for disassembling and assembling the entire truck

That's a waste of a grenade. I prefer a brick on the gas and a cliff. LOL @Vettevet

Re: Complete instructions for disassembling and assembling the entire truck
 

A sad fact:
Two bumpkins, with beer and air tools, can thoroughly basket-case an entire truck in a short weekend.

Most of those trucks never drive again :(

Re: Complete instructions for disassembling and assembling the entire truck
 

sadly true.

Re: Complete instructions for disassembling and assembling the entire truck
 

That's Hilarious! I will come over and you can help me out, I don't have quite the garage as you have.

Who we hiring for cleanup:lol: Its gunna get messy!

Re: Complete instructions for disassembling and assembling the entire truck
 

Shout out to davepl!. I'm from Kirkland! I was wondering how you came about to organize this list? Getting ready to reassemble my Blazer.

Re: Complete instructions for disassembling and assembling the entire truck
 

You left out the steps where you take a break for a Beer or Beverage..

Re: Complete instructions for disassembling and assembling the entire truck
 

Also step back and admire what's been accomplished!

Re: Complete instructions for disassembling and assembling the entire truck
 

I printed this and stuck it up in the garage. I'll update it if anything is missing! So far, I am surrounded by parts and seeing my garage is too small. I know, I'll number everything same as the list and bring it all into the house!

Re: Complete instructions for disassembling and assembling the entire truck
 

Much more organized than my:

- Get baggies and permanent marker
- Grab tools
- Let the rust fly

Gets a bit more complicated when you blow two of them apart and mix all the baggies together. :devil:
