also started my Molle panel system for the back of the sub...they are a little light weight but all I will be holding from them in a few fishing rods... and small stuff.... 1' x1' wire mesh panels made as a stack together shelf I found them at a yard sale for free. LOL the mesh is a little over...

primed getting ready to paint the base part of the brackets. going to paint them white to blend in with the truck. Yes my welds suck I'm a grinder not a welder.

Matt do you have a build for the suburban? I didn't see one on your profile page.

started my up rights for the brackets they turned out good. Im further along than these pictures but this is all I had and thought I would up date. I welded these to the angle iron on the bottom the hole bolts through the hinge bolt and helps stabilize the bracket.

well that makes me feel better about tearing into my parking brake...

10-12.5 looks like where it likes to be.

does the skid get bent up and connected to the bumper or what's going on there?

oh no that's how it all starts......

Thanks I've been waiting on a review from you on them...like I said before you made my mind up for me on these tires now I got to decide if I want to stuff 315s on it as they are cheaper than the 285s.

Thanks Rayra! I am no carpenter I really despise working with wood but I'm cheap so I do a lot of DIY projects...

I see a after market weld in brace company in the works just this one post has scared the crap out of all Colorado owners and they are now all looking at some way to beef up the frame of their trucks.

I was thinking the same thing...Facebook blew this post up and the comments are hard to read, too much assuming on t FB.

Started working on my ditch light brackets. this is just a test run I will rebuild them when I get it all figured out. The base I will keep, the flat bar stock will need to be a little longer so I can make the bracket about 1/2" taller and a little longer after the 90* bend.

yeah I hear that a common problem among GM's through all years. I would assume inadequate grounding and its building up heat. I also picked up some angle iron and flat stock to try and make some ditch light brackets but I don't know how that will go if you look at the ones made for the GMT800s...

step 4 unbolt condenser bolts, headlight support bolts, power steering cooler bolts. 5 lean the brace forward (not out its still connected to the trans cooler), 6 unbolt the condenser lines aluminum lines on top and bottom of passenger side of the condenser ( you know if its been evacuated in...

To pull the condenser its a pain in the rump!....I think on the earlier models its not as big of a deal but on the 03 and later they changed the way the brace bolts to the radiator support. 1Remove grille, headlights, marker lights 2remove plastic pc above radiator and the hood latch. 3 remove...

great post, I bet you where tired after 13 hours with the kids.

I do have some crimpers but I prefer a solder joint, I had an old man wear me out over the crimps when I was a teenager and ever sense I always use the solder but to each there own. The harness came from LMC. I think it was $40~ with shipping.

I also bought a Kreg joiner and hope to put it to work on my drawer project. I know most go with plywood completely but has any one ever don't he sides of the cabinet out of 1x8 or 1x10? picked up a harbor freight 3 ton jack also.... its nice not to stack blocks to lift the suburban with the...

the blower motor resistor was a no brainer, the plugs do not match so you have to cut the 3 wire plug off and solder them to corresponding wires on the new 5 wire plug, as easy as matching colors and it plugs into the blower motor no problem. Be sure to disconnect battery before you cut the...
