    I topped it off with synthetic Halogen as soon as we got the truck.

    DRL Indicator Light

    The green indicator for the DRLs isn't lighting up on our Suburban but the DRLs are functioning just fine. Is this a simple bulb swap or is it soldered to the cluster board?

    HVAC Door Constantly Moving

    We noticed that one of the HVAC doors seems to be in constant movement when the truck is on. My dad says that it will go from recirculate to fresh air on it's own, so I guess it's the recirculate door. Anyone know how to diagnose this further or of a fix?

    '99 C1500 Suburban Suspension & Steering Upgrayedd

    I'm looking at lowering a '99 Suburban about 3" front and rear, upgrading the sway bars and redoing the brakes and steering to make sure it's all good. I'm thinking Belltech's 2500 spindles for 2"-3" up front and their 5962 leaf springs out back for 3" of drop, paired with their 9524 Street...

    '99 K1500 Suburban w/Autotrac - Noises

    From a bit of research on the NP246 it looks like it needs a rebuild.

    '99 K1500 Suburban w/Autotrac - Noises

    Thanks for the explanation. I'll have to check the fluid level ASAP. I wasn't calling you an a**hole for the help, it was a Darwin Award post, which now I suspect was directed at the other guy, in which case I'm genuinely sorry. Thanks again.

    '99 K1500 Suburban w/Autotrac - Noises

    Way to be an a**hole, bro. Stupid me, I thought there might be a common issue that caused these sounds that someone with experience would know about. I'll have to get the service manuals out and read up on checking the fluid level.

    What is the normal operating temp on the Vortec 350?

    I could hear the fan disengage so I don't think it's the problem.

    I'm from Houston and had never heard of Cefco until we picked this Suburban up north of Austin. lol

    Dad's "old" totaled '99 Suburban C1500 LT and his "new" '99 Suburban K1500 LT. The "old" truck being hauled away. :frown: The "new" truck right after we made the deal.

    What is the normal operating temp on the Vortec 350?

    My father got a "new" '99 Suburban K1500 LT with 170K miles on it a couple of weeks ago. I noticed after we got it home, which was a 200 mile drive, that it was running extremely cool. We checked the fuel economy and it was bad, 14MPG pretty much all highway, so I think it was running in open...

    '99 K1500 Suburban w/Autotrac - Noises

    Two weeks ago my father got his first 4WD vehicle ever, a '99 Suburban K1500 LT with basically every option and 170K miles. The day after he got it I noticed a clickity-clack coming from what I thought was the front-end. Tonight I took it for a drive and listened to the noise a bit more and I...

    The Stupid Electronics Questions Thread

    Does anyone know what the impedance ratings are for the speakers in a '99 Suburban LT (8-speaker)? I know the front tweeters are 4-ohm but I'm unsure about the front mid-bass, rear door and rear roof speakers.

    Hello from Spring, Texas (Houston)!

    Thanks! The headlamps were the cheapest crystals I could find on eBay. $52 shipped. http://www.ebay.com/itm/88-02-Chevy-GMC-C10-Full-Size-Truck-SUV-Composite-Type-Chrome-Crystal-Headlights-/350589951839?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item51a0ca1f5f I might upgrade to export...

    Hello from Spring, Texas (Houston)!

    Thanks fellas. I picked up a little something today, a couple of Police Package Tahoe gauge clusters. One might make it's way into the Suburban if I can get it rebuilt and figure out the mod required to put it into a non-PPV.

    Hello from Spring, Texas (Houston)!

    Thanks, guys! She's not perfect, but I think we got a deal at $3K. I've already put some new crystal headlamps on as the originals were dull, dad restored the top of the core support (had some surface rust spots and a dent, I told him he was a li'l nuts, lol), we put new battery cables on...

    Hello from Spring, Texas (Houston)!

    Hey all, just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I'm Andrew, from the northern Houston suburb of Spring. I just went in with my dad and got us a '99 Suburban C1500 LT with 117,000 miles on it. Her name is Jane because she comes from Janesville, Wisconsin. We've had a 400 Suburban before, a...

    "Chevy lean" on stock suspension?

    I've got a '99 Suburban C1500 that has a bit of lean to it. I've known about the "Chevy lean" on trucks with drops, but is it common on stock trucks? Here are the fender well-to-ground measurements: LF: 32" RF:31.5" LR: 32.5" RR: 32.5" As you can see it's not bad, only a half an...

    The Member Truck Thread

    Here's Jane, the Janesville, Wisconsin-built '99 Suburban dad and I rescued from a small used car lot in a shady part of town. She's only got 117,000 miles on 'er, but she looks like 217,000 because the previous owner didn't treat her right. We're going to restore her and in a year and a half or...
