    Right hand drive pictures

    They are out of range for me here in Canada but wow! How does an ordinary guy go about making payments on that? Grateful we still have older gems around still.

    Right hand drive pictures

    My wife and I just returned (yesterday) from a visit to New Zealand to see our grandchildren. Our son-in-law is a mechanic in the South Island of NZ and has imported several North American Toyota Tundras and has also done the conversions to right hand drive. It is a very large undertaking to...

    Battlebots

    I loved that episode! But it was sad what they did to that beauty red 4x4. Just once they should have an episode where Jeremy has to be present at all times but with a muzzle on so only he can hear what he wants to say.

    Replacement Exterior Lighting Assemblies, TYC vs DEPO

    Weird red reflection from something inside the garage on the upper marker when I photographed it but it was a rewarding project to mount the bulbs in the upper reflector. Took a broken set of lower markers and carefully removed the bulb mounting bracket. Then JB welded the old bulb bracket onto...

    97 C1500 383 Stroker build

    Just going to throw this out there to hopefully shed light on this from another angle. I have a 1995 Chev K1500 that recently got an L05 and a 1998 C1500 that recently got an L31. Both were "massaged" and remanufactured by the same machine shop. The machine shop guys told me that both 4-bolt...

    Greetings from AZ

    I had a workmate whose father was a maintenance supervisor in the GMC Oshawa Ontario truck plant in the late 1980s and early 1990s. He ordered a two wheel drive Chev pickup and the guys on his crew applied the Z71 sticker to the box on both sides as a joke just before he took delivery. To most...

    Well this is gonna suck!

    Something to consider... The DJM lowering kit I installed on my black C1500 came with new upper and lower control arms. Bushings installed on the control arms were made using DELRIN instead of rubber. DELRIN is a little more solid than rubber so the steering is just a bit more positive. Seems...

    Granddaddy's Truck

    I've never owned a black vehicle before owning this truck in my avatar. I actually have two. One is a 1995 Chev Z71 4x4 that has original teal green paint. needs fenders but I have been really careful to keep the cab rockers and cab corners clean and sprayed on the inside with rust inhibitor. No...

    Red interior almost looks gothic! Wish my black truck had a red interior.

    The Center Console Thread

    Sorry for slow response. The Escalade console itself did not require modification to mount into my C1500. I did need to make a couple of spacers to run the mounting bolts through to tighten things down. When I get around to it I hope to stiffen the mounting brackets a bit more. It is very...

    The summer wheels that it came with were American Racing AR647 Nitro wheels with BFG Radial T/A Front P255/50R15 & Rear P295/50R15. It looked really good but one of the fat rear wheels had a leak that developed IN THE METAL. Didn't try as hard as I should have to repair it and just sold them as...

    The videos that SEM has made available were very helpful and it really did turn out better than I expected. I'm not a painter and not a single run!! The console was fully dis-assembled and all the panels were hung up from wires in our garage. Very pleased.

    Interior LED lighting was interesting. The Escalade console has a place where light can wash into the footwell if you put an LED in the right spot inside it.

    Weathertech makes some really nice floor mats that will let moisture run off the mat and OUT THE DOOR. They didn't show up when I was searching Weathertech for mats until I did a search for 1988 - 1998 SUBURBAN front floor mats. Weathertech didn't know what a C1500 was until I figured that one out.
