    Free to me GMC 2500

    I don't hear much buzzing. I take the cap off every now and again to hose my head down or whatever and always take a moment to enjoy watching them struggle their precious little hearts out. It's actually amazing how fast the local population takes a nose dive, or learn to avoid me altogether...

    1999 C3500 CC DRW Build

    I feel your guys' pain. I've played that game myself and am over it. I've got an entire gmt800 brake system for my dually going in this summer. Need to get the new rearend regeared first though.

    L31 Extreme Budget Build

    I'll second that. I got that vinyl flooring from them for a suburban. Initially tried working with it last fall after temps had dropped into the 60's and gave up within an hour. I'm still waiting until temps are in the 90's so I can lay it out in the sun and try to bake it into some kind of a...

    94 454 quick disconnect coolant fitting woes

    Very handy when switching out shower heads and the chinesium chromed shower pipe itself twists off and leaves only the threaded section inside the brass fitting behind the wall... no bueno.

    1999 L31 Engine with nearly 260k, Timing chain plus what else?

    I agree with the others... stash it and wait until the front main seal starts leaking.

    What rim offset to make it look «normal»?

    If you find a 8 lug wheel that tucks further than stock on the front face, please post them. I'd be curious to see them. Even if you find one with more backspacing and/or offset than stock, the increased width of the aftermarket wheels over the stock 6.5" rim usually eats up that space on the...

    What rim offset to make it look «normal»?

    Is this a K2500 suburban?? 8 lugs? Stock wheels already have a 5.5" backspace. The track width difference was intentional. It works very well, but looks fugly. @95burban has given you the normal answer for those that like to match up the two, myself included. Consider the 2" spacer so you...

    Dad's '98 Resto

    Looks fantastic! FYI - they do make receivers that tuck up and only leave the 2" square and some safety chain flanges showing.

    Black Racers are FAST MF'ers!! At full speed, they look like they're hovering above the ground. Made the mistake of grabbing a sunbathing one by the tail thinking it was a black rat snake and that thing grew wings. Holy moly. Yeah, snakes are good, except copperheads... they'll make a home and...

    Headliner

    A suburban headliner is different than a crew cab in 99. Even a base model burb in 99 has controls and vents above the passenger area, smaller vents over the rear doors, and a corresponding big hump from side to side at the b pillar. It also has a rear drop contour from side to side at the c...

    1996 K2500 Sub L29 454 Hesitation off idle

    I think I read something by @L31MaxExpress where he said that it is part of the stock tune. It's annoying though, for sure.

    OBS to NBS MC upgrade questions

    Both of your suburbans have/had hydroboost. Your '01 suburban had disc brakes in back. Your 99 has rear drums, and they require periodic adjustment. If you're not doing them yourself, make sure and get them tightened up whenever it's in for any other service, like oil changes or whatever. It's...
