    So my dad thinks he can take the body off of his tahoe and swap it with our 91 stepside. He wants the v8 and trans from the tahoe and thinks this is the best solution. I think the best way would be to just do an eng/trans swap and keep the tahoe together because i thought the frames had a...

    350 turbo puking fluid

    alright,so my 91 step side has always leaked a decent amount of tranny fluid so I figured I'd start looking into it instead of just adding a quart or two of fluid anytime I went out and about.
