    Searching for My Dad's 1979 Chevy Suburban

    These trucks are notorious for the frame breaking at the steering box. So bad in fact there are repair plates and reinforcing kits to weld in and bolt in. I saw a lot of tie rod ends, ball joints and wheel bearings on your invoice but didn't see (or maybe missed) any mention of the drag link...

    New truck/SXS

    We had a couple shakedown rides this past weekend and the RMAX did great! We're in a severe drought here so group rides are out till we get some good rain, too dusty. We rode a local trail to what used to be "party point" where you could see over the whole valley but noticed the trail was really...

    New truck/SXS

    So far so good but kinda early to tell. The 3.6 is peppy, and towed a 7'x12' trailer with the sxs with no problems on the interstate up some long hills. Wife hates the zr2, the floor board seems like it's 32 inches off the ground so you have to kinda throw your closest leg up in there and...

    New truck/SXS

    I finally had to unload the 2014 GMC Sierra ****, it was having BCM issues and the day I traded it in I noticed a nail in one of my new tires. At that time it had 130k miles. So out with the old... ...and in with the new... It's not "new" new, but the newest thing I've ever owned. 2022...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Had jumper cables rigged on my reese mount winch, swapped them out for welder lead quick connects and much heavier gauge wire. Also saw this cool video on how to fix the broken loop at the hook on a winch cable... Even though he said it's strong enough without saddle clamps I put 2 on it...

    This actually belongs to my wife's cousin, really good guy, fighting cancer and just knows he needs to thin out his projects. If anyone's interested give him a shout! He's had it listed a while with no bites. https://www.facebook.com/share/RNwa7uDBLzYZU1cv/?mibextid=kL3p88 Mod/ admin if in the...

    Man I messed up and put a bunch of stickers on a mini fridge and it died a couple years later, only the old fridges last. This is on my DD, quite fond of it...

    Ladder Rack Review from Harbor Freight (et al)

    As an update to this, the other day my cousin and I stood on either side of the truck and pulled down on the front of the rack and not much force made the front and rear sections separate at the clamp. He suggested drilling and bolting them together at the clamp but I opted to seam weld them...
