Well after 4 years I've decided to sell my Blackwood. 96k miles, garaged kept with cover. Everything is in working condition. Alpine hands free system. Truck was built in April 02. My uncle purchased in May of 02. Been in the family every since. Great truck! Going back to boat racing and need the room. Call Stacy 903-316-7790. Located in Tyler, Texas. $13,500 obo.

 

How is the air suspension compressor bolted in. My compressor is flopping around a lot while running.
TIA

I don't remember the name of the place but I bought a set of 3 vibration isolation dampers. They popped up when I was searching for air suspension air bags. $28 I think. Exact replacement for the shot ones.

 

I just signed up for this page don't know how to use it lol but my blackwood has 518000 thousand miles looks great and runs great in Nebraska.

 

Also 2712 is the last 4 of the vin.

 

518,000 miles? That is awesome!

 

Tasco? I cannot find on a search.

 

Thanks gtmopat! I replaced the three air compressor grommets and it is like new.
Next up is the creaking body mounts. Anybody deal with those already??

TIA

Bought my one owner BW 8 years ago with 3K miles. Now has 77000.

 

I found the replacement bushings on this site. I believe it was the carid .com that sold them. The link wasn't spevific on whuch model but I chose the upsize lariet 150 and probably should have chosen the smaller model. I replaced the three back bushings and not very front ones. Original bushings have metal insert which comes down through the frame mounts. You either have to lift cab reallyyyyy high, or cut the metal insert from the bittom with some type of mdtal cutting wheel.
My problem was the metal inserts in new bushings were too tall, so bushings didn't cinch tight, had to remove bushings and slice an eighth of an inch off.
Improved ride by hundred percent. Lifted body so the trim strip actually followed from the front to the back.

Hello Blackwood Forum,

This is Marco Mendoza from Chihuahua Mexico and this is my first post in this forum. I just bought a 2003 Blackwood last week, after years searching (and saving money) for one of these.

This would be my toy, not only because it is special, but also because it burns gas like crazy!

I hope I can learn a lot from this forum and I will be here if you guys need anything from me.

Regards,

 

Congratulations! It's beautiful and I know you will enjoy it. Do you know what/it there are any difference between the US 2002 and the Mexican 03?

I was down in Puerto Vyarta a few weeks ago and kept my on the look out for a Blackwood, but no luck. Mine is a 2002.

 

I have my Blackwood, 19,000 miles & still has everything it came with including the original tires!

 

Its been quite some time since my last post so i have a few new pics of the one and only bagged blackwood..
