    What rim offset to make it look «normal»?

    Here's a couple forum posts that talk about the diesel 1500 burbs being odd balls. https://www.dieselplace.com/threads/1500-or-2500-suburban.672585/ http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?p=5376978 https://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/threads/8-lug-c1500-suburban.39121/

    What rim offset to make it look «normal»?

    From what I've read the burbs with the 6.5 where 8 lug in the 1500's here in the US as well. Why they did that I don't know. I'll try to find where I read it.

    Thank you for the pic. I might be able to make one of those work. Might have to make some mods to it. But it looks like it might be a good starting point.

    Heavy Half?

    I think its just the diesel bumper. Both the 6.5 trucks in my driveway have them. Only bad thing is they make the tow hooks almost useless. I have to loop a small thin strap around it then hook what ever to that. I might be going to the pick and pull tomorrow. I will see what they have. If...

    Hmm I don't know if it being a 2 piece will be good news or not for me.

    No problem thank you. My brain hurts to much from trying to find parts and work I don't know if I'd be able to comprehend anything.

    Could you do me a favor and take a pic of the headliner in you burb? WHat I am looking for is from the back seats back. I can't remember what what the roof looks like on one of those.

    So did some calling around and I cannot find any headliners. I might try the suburban headliner and try cutting it down. That is if I can get it at a decent price.

    Headliner

    Yeah I didn't think CC where going to be this hard to find stuff for. Damn mice. Thought I had a buddy that was parting one out but it turned out to be a extended cab. There's a couple places in town that do headliner work Im going to talk to them and see what they might be able to do for me...

    Gmc 6.5 1994 stanadyne Injection Pump

    Most problems I have really read about one the 94+ is PMD related. If you get it out of the engine compartment and give it a consistent air temp the transistors live a better life. They do have optical sensor and crank sensor issues but like a gas engine they have cam/crank sensor issues to.

    Might try Badger Diesel. From what I have heard stay as far away from Pensacola Diesel as you can unless you want to change pump after pump until you get a good one.

    Interesting. The title says it's silver but to my eyes it is closer to the brown scale. But as a friend of mine says I use my man eyes so I miss some things.

    Well not totally nekkid. Still has the steering column for some reason. Don't know why I didn't pull it. I dont know the code for sure. I know the rpo codes are readable I'll have to find the glove box in the pile of parts. I'll find it this evening and post it

    Got a bit more progess. Decided to pull the head liner and check up there. Glad I did. The fabric had a hole in it but I didn't know the foam had a nice hole in it. It must have been tasty because they had a good sized nest next to it. Been looking but I can't seem to find any replacement...
