    K1500 Suburban fuel line QD to Steel Braided Hose swap at tank/pump

    By the way, I posted the wrong Part Number for that pump. It's the E3967M pump. Actually a bit cheaper than the other pump. I looked up the specifications on them both and see that the **67 one is the right one. RockAuto has the specs and you can see a difference in flow and pressure. Thank...

    K1500 Suburban fuel line QD to Steel Braided Hose swap at tank/pump

    Thank you Frank! I appreciate an answer from a man that does this as a profession (maybe not the modifying of fuel pump assemblies). And I understand what you mean by not mixing hose and fittings between manufacturers. Many have different specs and can see a problem there. I took out that...

    K1500 Suburban fuel line QD to Steel Braided Hose swap at tank/pump

    I don't like the QD design and I have everything I need and time to waste. Plus, I have another pump incase this don't work or I want to switch back. Yes, I agree that the stock fuel system should supply enough fuel and I don't see much need for change. If I wanted forced induction, I would...

    K1500 Suburban fuel line QD to Steel Braided Hose swap at tank/pump

    I appreciate your replies. Its nice to see everyone's point of view. I think I didn't explain well enough what it is I am planning to do. I have replaced the fuel pump assembly on suburbans (1995 C1500 and 1999 K1500) a few times, its not my first rodeo. What I am saying is that I had the...

    K1500 Suburban fuel line QD to Steel Braided Hose swap at tank/pump

    Like the title says, this thread is on swapping the quick disconnect lines at the tank/pump (aka- fuel feed and return lines). I have the resources and some knowledge on doing this from my time in Marine aviation. I have done this on other fuel injected vehicles. I do not like the quick...

    Engine and Transmission R&R question

    Thank you all for your reply's. For some reason it seemed like such a pita to pull the transmission and transfer case. I bet either in my laziness or ignorance or what the pubs say, I did it the hard way. Usually AWD systems have been pretty easy for me, I need to spend more time familiarizing...

    Engine and Transmission R&R question

    On my 99' K1500 I needed to remove and replace the engine and transmission. Both replacements are ready to install. How do you prefer to install both of these? Individually? Transmission first, engine first? For some reason I'm thinking that you'd install the engine and transmission...
