Has anyone out there looked into suspension lifts by with Race Car Dynamics or BDS? They seem better made than the more popular Rough Country lifts. They have kits available for the 1500 and 2500 Suburban's. http://racecardynamics.com/3-suspension https://bds-suspension.com/

I have a 2002 Avalanche 2500, which is basically the same body. I'm hoping to make it more self-supporting for trips to Mexico and eventually Central America.

Here’s an update in case anyone with an Avalanche is following. The radiator has been replaced as well as the upper and lower control arms. Next is replacing the window regulator and motor in the front passenger side window, then rebuilding the front brakes and replacing the front sway bay...

My price was $8000 for two Vario F heated leather seats with armrests. Nice seats though.

I’ve been following this thread for a while. May I ask how much your seats were CKent? I’m looking at the Vario F as well. Durwin

Has anyone out there looked at the Scheel Mann seats? If so, has anyone out there found something for less?

Console in the truck which will be modified for the Scheel Mann seats, off-road lights and the Yaesu FTM 400 which I have. At present I have the Painless Wiring dual battery install, it will be removed in favor of RedArc. That will allow me to eventually use solar panels.

I just found this thread again as I'm looking for build ideas for my 2500. Right now, I'm buying parts to rebuilding the steering and suspension. Eventually, it's my hope to use this for foreign travel as I use my Jeep now. Feel free to chime in with ideas or questions.

Thank you for your reply. I just got back from a trip to Mexico As far as the Avalanche goes, I've done the dual battery setup and I'm working on the steering now. Could you answer the following questions? 1. Could you show a picture of where the ARB threaded mount comes into the bed? 2. Who...

I'm back. Ok, the radiator was taken care of. Now I'm going to start working on the suspension and steering. The parts will be a combination of Moog for the upper and lower control arms and Rare Parts for some heavy duty tie rods. Afterwards, I'll replace the dry rotted BFG All-Terrain tires. I...

Nice to see that there are a few people out there who use them.

No cylinder deactivation on my 02. It has a radiator leak, so that will be replaced. After that, the upper and lower control arms.

I have a 2002 Avalanche 2500 that I want to use for overlanding. I've read Chris Cordes article. Has anyone else out there done this? I think the only disadvantage would be fuel mileage. The parts on the 2500 are heavy duty, plenty of room for sleeping and carrying equipment. Anyone?

Thanks, Any ideas on where it should be posted? Durwin

I'm getting an AEV hood in October and already have received the Kentrol hinges. Anyone in the Sacramento area interested in an OEM hood?

Hi, I have a 2016 Jeep Wrangler 2-door. I removed the rear seat the day after I brought it home from the dealership. There it sits today. Since then I’ve been buying the Goose Gear plate system as the budget allows. I guess I did it backwards, I the the side panels installed and yesterday I...
