Tinkering with a 99 Suburban

[svrh89]

Actually it’s factory. I roughed it up a little and painted and clear coated it.

dam, I did that with mine (flex sealed it) I don't hate it but considering the direction I am going i wouldn't mind buying a nicer one.

Congrats on your nice white suburban.
At 200K miles & 25 years, suggest preventive measures ... R&R fuel pump ... less stressful when ya do it when it's more convenient (T-shirt).
Also, concur with 10W30 oil.

For what mine cost at ebay, way less hassle than painting my old gold one.

Great looking 'burb, Nate. The OBS just looks so capable of anything you need it to do.

hey, where did you get the red chevy logo? do you have a part #? I have seen them on amazon but it is hard to discern which is the correct logo for the year.

FYI there is a factory red and black "Sport" bowtie that fits the '94+ grilles. The GM part number is 12543000.

@df2x4, at the TYF, there is a moderator there that is in Mo. and close to where I used to live in KC, Mo. Where are you at, if is ok to ask.

@movietvet I'm in Columbia, right smack in the middle. Never been on the Tahoe/Yukon forum much but maybe I should check it out. I do have a Suburban with GMC badges, that's almost a Yukon.

 

[movietvet]

Very familiar with where Columbia is. University of Mo. My senior year of high school, we played our football state AAA championship at that field. Excelsior Springs High School. IIRC, the mod at TYF lives in Lees Summit.

Has anyone used a fuel filter/water separator in place of the factory fuel filter? I’ve been digging around trying to find information to see if it’s a viable upgrade. I found a few marine style filters that are suitable for gasoline. Mostly I’m finding diesel style fuel filters and I didn’t know if it would be compatible for gasoline. Wanted something easy to access and change while still performing well.
