      Hey Eric! I wanted to update you and let you know that I sawpped out my rear brake shoes with a pair of ceramics from Napa. The best ones they sell. I cleaned everything up, adjusted the new shoes and installed new springs too even though the ones on there still looked good. I figured why not they where cheap enough. I have put about 100 miles on my Blazer since and have done a lot of stopping and everything is great! No more grabbing or skidding of the rear wheels. Normally by now the issue would have came right back after a couple days of driving. Keeping my fingers crossed. I will never buy brake shoes or pads from PepBoys again thats for darn sure! I am always beena Napa guy before but I was being cheap and look wear it got me. I have great luck with Napa SKF wheel bearings too. Every hub I have replace on my GM’s from Napa have never had to be replaced again. AutoZone, Advance, Pepboys and Auto Supermarket wheel hub bearings go bad in less than a year. Thanks again Eric and everyone else who replied to my issue. Thanks!!!!!!

        checked the TCC fuse and it is good. I did find it odd that when i connect my leads on my ohm meeter to the electrical connections the fuse goes into it has no resistance like it is shorted out. Perhaps the shift selenoid is shorted on or soemthing like that? Can this be fixed without dropping subframe of pulling the engine. I understand its behind the tranny side cover the selenoid. I have done a head gasket on a 3.1 multiport and upper and lower intakes on this 3.8 series II. Sound like something I can handdle or take it to a tranny shop? Thanks!
