    Wheel cross reference question

    I went with new Mastercraft 15s and settled for a C rated tire; it's far better than the P series tires it had, haven't towed with them yet but I anticipate an improvement. I am going to keep looking for a deal on 16 inch rims for the next time around. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Is there a easy way to quickly bypass the NSS on a 4l60e?

    So far it appears our problem is back to the battery cables, really irritating. Last night I spent some time and cut the rubber away front the ends of both positive cables and cleaned up the corrosion; corrosion really wasn't that bad but the truck started this morning without issue so it...

    It is not, and as it turns out it was the damn battery cables again! This is getting a big 3 and converted to posts next spring if I can wait that long, very irritating. I do still have some issues related to the NSS though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Is there a easy way to quickly bypass the NSS on a 4l60e?

    Been having start issues off and on and since I don't drive this truck daily (my wife does) it has been a bear for me to diag; but I think this mornings issues are pointing towards the neutral safety switch. 1997 Suburban 1500 On cool or cold mornings she would go out and turn the key...

    97 steering column rebuild

    Looking for advice on a parts list; the ignition switch is starting to not engage the starter more and more often; beating on the column or shaking the shifter so far gets it to work. I assume this is the switch assembly going bad, or should I be looking at the something to do with the...

    Do these alternator voltages look ok?

    Anything over 100 amps is sufficient for most cars and trucks in stock form. My Grand Marquis came with a 65amp which I just upgraded to 140amp. Based on what you said above and the fact that it's a store brand alt, I would question the Alternator. My GMs only get Bosch or delco electronics...

    Do these alternator voltages look ok?

    No, your idle voltage is a bit low I think. Your gauge will never be accurate, it's there to indicate a problem not to diagnose it. When you put the new alt on did you swap your pulls or did it come with one? If it came with on was it the same size? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Midwest Roll Call

    I could show up for support if something was in Sale an or along the 135 corridor. Mine is nothing special though; just a old work horse. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rear speakers not working

    Considering the half ass sub install they did I am guessing they ran the hell out of the entire system. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rear speakers not working

    If he tapped into them and they are still connected to the back then they should work, only the front components run off the factory amp (someone correct me). So I would question if the rear over head speakers are any good, test with a known good speaker. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Wheel cross reference question

    17" tires cost as much as 15" so no gain there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I am currently 5 bolt, I either need 5 bolt 16s or do a 6bolt conversion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Wheel cross reference question

    I am not sure this is the right sub forum but i didn't see anywhere else it fit, let me know if there is a better section to ask in. I have a 1500 series 97' Suburban that I tow a 24' camper with. When I bought it last September it had passenger tires on it which are still on it; not bad...

    1997 Suburban Ignition switch pin out request.

    You nailed it, that afternoon I went out and tried again; it was still cold and wet, was still raining too. This time when I put the key in the dinger went off but it stuttered; like it would if the battery was dead. I found the positive cable loose, but just barley. It only took 1/8th turn...

    1997 Suburban Ignition switch pin out request.

    Failed to start this morning; put the key in and the dinger started, as soon as I turned the key everything went dead and did not come back. If I turn it to just before the run position the shift indicator will light and flicker but nothing else; just past run it goes out and there is no...

    1997 Suburban Ignition switch pin out request.

    Yeah, the plan is to fix but if it was still down I needed to get it operational. Looks like the issue is temp related; the switch is failing but now that it has warmed up 40 some degrees out it works perfectly. I am going to hold off for now on any hackery and order the part next week...

    1997 Suburban Ignition switch pin out request.

    And of course it started right up when I got home... moisture related? It was cold last night too.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    1997 Suburban Ignition switch pin out request.

    Seems like this specific diagram is rather elusive. I have not fully diagnosed my issue yet but will this afternoon; based on some previous issues I am pretty sure the ignition switch in my wife's 1500 has failed, but I am going to investigate the neutral safety too. From what she told me...
