    Looking on how to Wire up sequential “turn signal” Tow Mirrors and make them function?

    These are the ones I bought, power, heated, and lights/turn. I haven't had a chance to wire them up yet, but they function well. The upper glass does shake a bit, but not as bad as others I have seen. https://www.ebay.com/itm/185265684126

    99 K2500 Burb Adventure/Camping/Hunting Rig

    Next up is getting the brake issue fixed. I believe it's actually the rear drivers side that's grabbing. I'm hoping it's just an adjustment issue. Then fixing the AC(has a hole in one of the lines at the compressor). Wiring up the mirrors so everything works. Mounting the rooftop tent.

    Finally got around to doing my center caps. I think they turned out great! At first they were significantly darker than the wheels. The wheels were real dirty though. The last picture is after a hard rain. Still not a perfect match, but they look way better than not having center caps.

    GCWR -Suburban

    This reflects what I have found in my searches as well. I have crossed the scale at the dump at 20k lbs(so 3k over GCWR) though. Oops! Loaded a dump trailer with dirt at night. It rained all night, and was extremely heavy. After that load I didn't load nearly as much for the remaining runs I...

    Suburban leather seat cover set

    I've been looking at leatherseats.com. Seems to be legit, have some good videos, and also have ventilation kits available. Priced out for all 3 rows on my suburban with ventilation in the driver/passenger seat was around $3k. Completely customizable as far as colors and leather/vinyl quantity...

    Newer AT4 Wheels

    I've never been a huge fan of aftermarket wheels, but have always LOVED putting newer wheels on older vehicles. These are super sharp!

    Odd Brake Anomaly

    But it's just the left front, if they were just super grabby it would make sense, but it's only the one and its skid marks, that corner of the truck diving, and throwing me forward.

    Odd Brake Anomaly

    I haven't personally touched the hydro boost, other than when I replaced the power steering lines due to leaking. I had the front right caliper siezed up last summer, that's when I replaced both calipers, rotors, pads, and hoses. My thought process was that it is likely something in the...

    Odd Brake Anomaly

    I have recently(but only occasionally) encountered a very odd issue with my brakes. Something I've never encountered before with any vehicle. When I first start the truck and go to pull out of my driveway, as I slightly apply pressure to the brakes, my front drivers side locks up. It could...

    Building an Overland Suburban

    I agree with the other input that a 2500 burb will do the trick. I have been building mine and I think it will be plenty strong enough for what you're looking for. I have seen a few with tailgates around. I actually missed out on buying a 2nd at auction because I had to work to late. That...

    Milwaukee m18/m12 tools

    I had an old hand-me-down Sears/Craftsman 9.6v drill when I first moved in on my own. Luckily I was able to find some new replacement batteries at Sears for about $10 each(this was circa 2010). Used that for a few years, and then needed some more tools. I did my research and decided M18 was...

    Cunningham Machine

    Just adding my input, the lower steering shaft is worth every penny! I wish I had known about the tie rod sleeve when I redid my whole front suspension.
