    K3500 hub bolt installation

    When I was doing my front end rebuild (hubs, rotors, etc) I found out that the Wheel studs diameter changes around ’95 or ‘96 especially when you are asking for ‘94 K2500 and ‘95 K3500 wheel studs… not by much but damn, it becomes irritating. My K2500HD Suburban 8-lugger converted from the ‘94...

    Stamped Lower Control Arms

    I have found lowers for the 2wd that utilizes coil springs , with ease but nothing for the 4WD (torsion bars). From everything that I have found or seen, there are 3 LCA styles. 1st style is the stamped lower with riveted ball joints . 2nd style it the stamped lower with pressed ball joints...

    Stamped Lower Control Arms

    Unfortunately, my Suburban is a 8-lug K2500. So basically it’s a SRW 1ton chassis and drivetrain.

    Stamped Lower Control Arms

    Aren’t those the forged lowers? I thought that I read somewhere that they are narrower than the ones I have? Thought someone had said that they have a tighter turning radius? Either way, is anyone making the forged LCA’s ?

    Stamped Lower Control Arms

    My LCA’s are the riveted type ball joints (just like in the picture). Last year I rebuilt my LCA’a with polyethylene bushings and new bolt on ball joints, but thought to myself that it was weird that I was able to get new UCA’s , new CV, hubs, brake rotors, calipers, everything from the front...

    Stamped Lower Control Arms

    Alright everyone, I got a question for you… I have a ‘94 GMC k2500 Suburban HD 8-lug with stamped LCA’s which nobody seems to manufacture . I was wondering if replacements are ever needed, can the lower control arms from the All Wheel Drive Safari work? If not , which vehicle has LCA that can...

    F60 option

    F60 - Heavy Duty Front Springs (Came With HD Front & Rear Shocks Recommended For Snow Plow Use On 1/2 Ton Trucks) I think “Meyers Snow Plows” is what GM corroborated with

    removing lca

    I recently had to deal with this myself. What seemed to work for me was I loosened the mounting bolts (axel to frame) for the front axel, removed the 6 bolts holding the inner CV axel and separated so flange can spin, then scrape and wire brush the outer edge clean. I then floor jacked the axel...

    Brakes got soft

    Since you have a hydroboost, how is your power steering system? Is it leaking or low fluid or pump going out? have you flushed the power steering system ? The smallest amount of debris in the system can start plugging things up in the hydroboost, that is why it is highly recommended that you...

    Coolant temp gauge malfunction

    I was having the same problem with my dash (tach, oil, coolant temp with idiot lights). I found that corroded wiring had jacked up the ohms in the circuit. I replaced the 1-wire pigtail at the head and it helped. I then replaced the semi-new sensors with ac delco 213928(intake, 84ohm) and...
