    95-98 Dash To 88 Dash Swap.

    He says he wants an 88-89 Suburban if they had made made one. So to stay authentic, he would need the rally gauges. Then he also needs to decide if he wants the 88 or 89 look specifically, as the early 88 gauges are different and the 88 bezel, radio and HVAC controls are all black.

    95-98 Dash To 88 Dash Swap.

    Glad to see I’m not the only one. I hated the 95 interior change. And the elimination of the stainless mirrors.

    Are you wanting a 88-94 pickup/92-94 Blazer/Suburban dash or an old square body dash like in your picture?

    A/C Compressor Replacement '94 Suburban

    You always replace the receiver/drier anytime you open the system. I recommend the orafice tube as well. If you are competent enough to do these repairs, then you can handle charging it yourself. Buy a decent vacuum pump and set of manifold gauges. They will pay for themselves quickly.

    Part 2637 Motor mount - manufactured wrong

    They own the US and all of our federal politicians. It’s really sad.

    My battery cables are shot... recommendations? ('95 C1500 5.7)

    Or like in my case, it was a bad starter. New battery, clean cables and grounds, nothing made a difference. Rebuilt starter made a night and day difference.

    Why do some shocks specify the Z71 package?

    The mounts are the same. I just replaced the shocks on my 88 with Bilstein 4600’s. They are specified for Z71. Seems to ride pretty good with them. My 2014 Sierra Z71 came from the factory with Rancho’s. They were garbage. I replaced with 4600’s after the first month or so. Huge improvement. But...

    Difference between 4L60e TBI and 4L80e TBI

    Isn’t there something weird with 95 engine and transmission compatibility?

    Difference between 4L60e TBI and 4L80e TBI

    I think you’re right. My dad bought a new 92 K1500 and it had the 4l60. I still remember he was in a hurry because he didn’t want a 93 with the electronic controlled transmission.

    93 was 1st year for 4l60e.

    Z71 decal

    My 4x4 decals are basically level with the bottom of the tail light opening. But it appears it was not an exact science. Here’s what the manual has.

    Z71 decal

    The GM service manual should have decal placement instructions. I only have the 88 version, before the Z71 decals were available. Or I would share with you.

    Grille Question

    With the shipping cost, I wonder if maybe trying to order directly from a dealership is cheaper? Thanks for the part numbers.

    Grille Question

    Did you buy from a dealership or another source? Is the OEM emblem also available?
