    What have you towed lately

    Bruce, my K2500 Suburban towing my ‘94 K3500 truck bed trailer. Eventually the trailer will be painted to match the truck and have the same wheels. This was part way through a trip up and down the Colorado passes.

    Barn Doors to Tailgate Swap

    I have searched this forum with several permutations of phrasing and haven't found any existing threads talking about it. I have also searched the googles without much luck. Mostly people asking the question with no answers to their questions. So I'll make a new thread. I won't bother asking...

    '99 Suburban Overland Rig

    Step 3: I cut a small peep hole to determine where I needed to make my full cut. I was almost surprised to find the pump exactly in the middle of the suburban. The center of the pump is exactly centered side to side, and 19" from the back door seam. Step 4: My access hole measures 13" from the...

    Did you ever finish your build? Well, a build is never finished. But did you ever get the front axle? or anything else? Its like a book that's left unfinished. ;)

    No constant power to radio

    Crank But No Start Without Starter Fluid

    Yeah. Renting a fuel pressure tester is an easy and quick way to rule out the pump.

    No constant power to radio

    The radio in our ‘97 K1500 suburban hasn’t worked since we got it. As in no power at all. Won’t turn on or display time. I’m trying to figure out why so I can fix it and get a working radio. Ive pulled the radio out of the dash and found a pin out for the wiring. What Ive determined: -The fuse...

    Yeah. I replaced the pump and the inline filter and it starts right up every time now. :)

    Crank But No Start Without Starter Fluid

    Just tested it. It primes at 48psi and cranks at 38psi. I guess I found my problem. Thanks all.

    Crank But No Start Without Starter Fluid

    Thank you for the response. I'm renting a fuel pressure tester Saturday. I'll post the results. I also replaced the coolant temp sensor next to the thermostat housing as well as the fuel pump relay. The reason for the first was thinking that it wasn't getting a reading at the computer to...
