    1994 K1500 Power Seat

    just dealt with this. Find one with the older seat style, like the 87-93 - even if it doesn't have power seats that frame is the same and the power module bolts to the frame.

    Suspension improvements options

    I have a 92 4wd 2dr Blazer. All stock. 150k miles. It is a daily driver and rarely will see any off road. I don't want to lift it, but would like to improve the ride and handling. I ready the body mount thread and may do that as well. I am going to need new shocks soon and thought I would...

    Tint

    I prefer it to match. I had the fronts done on a car and told the guy just match it.... it looked great and matched perfectly, but it all see much darker because the only "full" light coming in was from the windsheild

    I'm an idiot

    just an update on the steering wheel I really like it. I wasn't sure about it not being leather and wasn't sure I would like the ridges on the back. However, i think the thing is great, easy to handle, hang onto etc. Now I need to put my radio remote on there.

    yep, screw broke inside.... lights still work, so I am going to see if I can find a small plastic screw driver or something to activate it. The down the road I will look for a replacement. Hopefully it will be a minor inconvenience

    I'm an idiot

    So I bought a new steering wheel for my truck and went to install it yesterday. I couldn't find my steering wheel puller, so I thought I could slowly knock it out with a hammer. In the process I broke off the hazard button. It looks like I will have to replace that whole section if I want to...

    Pioneer CD-SR110 + PRS80

    I posted this on another site I am on. I thought it might be useful here for those of us who don't have steering wheel controls and really want them. I bought a PRS80 a while back based on a number of the reviews and the fact that I couldn't get a double din in my car without some serious...

    A/C fan sounds horrible - how hard to change

    Thanks... Hopefully I can get it done this weekend. Any chance there are upgraded fans that blow more air? Mine only has the 3 speed blower

    When I was looking at it my wife walked up and saw the screen and before anything else she says, "no, you can't have it!"
