    Sport Mirror Location

    I went with sport mirrors on my Blazer, cooler looking, but definitely not too functional....I found those same drawings, and they are spot-on. Make sure to use the support plates inside the door!!

    What is this? (LSPV Valve)

    Im thinking Ill disconnect the linkage part, and set it to the "loaded" setting, and see how it goes. If it works out, ill bypass it altogether.

    What is this? (LSPV Valve)

    I will do that, especially since my truck was missing the glove box, with the codes sticker, and Im guessing at the installed options..

    What is this? (LSPV Valve)

    Following this, as my 87 C3500 could use better braking power, loaded and pulling a trailer. Im still confused, but I am suspecting the forward proportioning valve might be different for trucks using the LSPV. Has anyone replaced the forward when removing the LSPV?...or installed an adjustable...

    Has anyone bought the LMC dash?

    I'm using a Coverlay and it fits well, but not perfect. Check on AMD, they just came out with one, and their stuff is very good. If anyone is using it, please let us know!!!

    Suggestions on primer for my topper

    all the above advice is accurate, but I would get another quart mixed of the same product and color, because that top seems a bit large for a single stage paint to cover.

    Electrical genius advice needed,....

    Thanks to all who helped!! I did track down the problem and it was due to "human error",...I am that human, LOL,...it was in the ignition switch on the column,..when I clipped in the harness to the switch, I did not notice one male connector (12g brown wire) bent outwards as I connected it. I...

    Electrical genius advice needed,....

    my theory, also,...I do have and used a test light on the fuse box, neither side of the fuse holders have power in the on position.

    Burlwood trim

    I'm hoping someone can point me to a close, if not perfect burlwood grain veneer to match the 1991 Suburban dash trim. I have to use it on the passenger side trim panel, although mine is a bit custom. Also, I will add it to the door panels to finish it up.
