    Suburban alignment question

    This is a good short thread. I answered all of the issue I had and sped up the front end repairs of my truck. The shop that failed my front end wanted to replace the ball joints. and I told them they were not bad, just the tie rod ends at minimum by watching what moved when moving tires. Thanks

    I had to get a powered gray set on fleabay. I saw lots of manual ones on there. They are not cheap, and neither is shipping. My drivers side was inop, so sprung for a pair.

    I know this is an old thread and thanks for posting it. It was helpful, but did you have any luck using the plastic welder. Even with knowledge of clip location, cold weather caused some issues. I'm checking out sound deadening thread next. Thanks again.

    Brakes still spongy after countless brake bleedings, and new master cylinder.

    I hate those brake switches, never got one off yet without wreckin it. How much do you think Gm paid, so It would nearly be impossible to remove? There are instruction to rmove it, but it is in such a rotten place you can't see what your doing.

    Brake Hydro Booster

    Replacement of the hydroboost unit fairly easy. You can leave the master cylinder intact and in place. The hard part that I found was that clip thing that keeps the brake switch on under the dash. I got a new one of those as well because it didn't survive. Somewhere on the net and here, there is...

    Hydroboost issues..

    I retro'd hydroboost on my old Jeep GW, and the bleedind was the PIA. The brakes worked so well on thr Jeep, I realized that the factory Hydro setup on my k2500 was shot, and replaced everything but the antilock box. Had to gravity bleed that system lots, but the bench bleed went better than Jeep.

    E-3 Spark Plugs

    Had 2 crack on my AMC 360. Only use AC Delco or NGK on my gassers. It worth a shot on the old guzzler though as 11 MPG is good mileage and only reason I get that is I use GM HEI distributor and used to get 9.

    Inner structure under extended cab body panel?

    Thanks, I guess it will be clear to me when I cut it out tomorow. Did you have to remove the interior panel or just dig the foam out from the outside. Concerned about fire when welding, even though much less heat stitching to keep warpage to minimum.

    DRL delete

    I believe the reason for DRL is you have 30 percent less chance of getting in accident with them. I only hate them when parking at hunting spots, but override them for that(push dome override 4 times) Hey GW, did opening up the diesel holes in that bumper help cooling and is your pmd there?

    keyless entry

    Yes on right fob. I have no way of knowing if it works though. In this day and age new fob means nothing. Will try different battery in it in morning. When you jump 4 and 8 pins and door lock cycles, does this mean module working properly. Gonna check antenna wire also. I don't remember seeing...

    keyless entry

    I got a new fob online for my 97 after checking rpo codes to see if I have keyless entry on my 97. I put a clip in pins 4 and 8 and doors locked/unlocked indicating programming mode. After holding unlock and lock nothing happens. Will the module lock/unlock doors with clip in and still be...

    my worst mod was...

    Yep you are right. I guess I should be happy to know better than to install parts that will frag the engine. Seems to me he would make more money if he sold better parts and got return customers.
