    Introducing....."Sueburban"

    If you are low on coolant and its not on the passenger side floor, its probably the lower intake manifold gasket. Vortec motors are great for leaking there. If they have never been done, you will probably need them done sooner or later. They had faulty gaskets from the factory. Its not to bad of...

    My 1989 Suburban with a Westfalia top grafted into it... also dual 360 swivel seats

    I'm very jealous of this project. Looks great. A quick question about the seats, will you be able to run some sort of center console with the swivel mounts?

    That's looking cool and being cool all at once. I'll take that any day over a tinted windshield!

    35% on the windshield is sometimes nice because it cuts on the glare of oncoming headlights at night...but it also makes the car or truck to dark in my opinion. You pretty much have to roll the side widows down if you're at a stop sign and going to pull into traffic. He was just trying to look...

    Most factory Chevy tint is 20% on the rear windows. My state is 35% for legal. So I do like Larry does and just match the front to the back and roll the dice to see if I get pulled over for something as little as tinted windows. Shoot I have friends with the windshield tinted 35%.

    Oh man, I got so excited to see an older Burb that I didn't realize it was the front seat I was looking at. Thought it had a third row seat. Still a cool suburban.

    Nice 75.... you hardly ever see any that clean. Those years were so rusty. In WA I barely see any on Craigslist for sale. Nice to see a third row too

    2nd battery on 1999 Suburban

    Doesn't your Suburban already have a tray for the extra battery? Maybe not, I am not sure of the last year available for a diesel. My 1997 has a tray and I just got the hold down from the junkyard. You could probably rob those parts off of an older one. Not sure what it looks like on the drivers...

    Tinting Windows

    The rear of your Tahoe is 20%. I would do the fronts 20% also that way it matches. I did my Suburban that way. Its illegal in my state but I have never been pulled over for it. Legal is 35% for the fronts. That's pretty much Chevy's go to. Its easy to see out of at night. I've owned a lot of...

    ARB shout out

    Actually today I have been debating on which brand awning to buy for my truck. After reading this, it will be an ARB. Nice post, its good to hear good things about companies instead of all the negative.

    Nice little flashlight: Fenix PD-35

    I love their lights. I have 3 or 4. I have always stayed away from the cr 123. But any of the ones that take 2A and 3A(cant remember which models I have) are great. Never had to warranty one yet. Always lose them first. They are priced well on Amazon.

    1995 Chevy Tahoe 4X4 - Adventure Rig Build

    I was wondering if you could give me a link for the map and door lights. I already ordered the dome lights off of Amazon. Thanks for the info. I like the new grill, I've been torn about turning my GMC into a Chevy. Looks good.

    Thoughts on a 1996 Suburban 2500

    I love mine, its a 97 bought it about 6 months ago. Intake manifold gaskets (lower) go bad. If its never had a fuel pump, it will need one. Looks like that is the last year for manual shift transfer case which is good(mine is push button). Probably has the G80 factory locker, and has a 4L80E...

    Looking for advice on bodywork & painting my rig myself

    Like everyone else has said on here, the best finish comes from the prep work. Buy yourself a DA sander, money well spent. Also others have said don't take it all the way down to the metal. Every pro paint job prep work I have seen always still has a original paint on it. BC/CC is the only way...
