    2001 BMW X5 for my wife

    Wet sand the headlights with 800-1000 and then hit it with some rough cut compound and voia la... Or just get the Meguiar's headlight restore kit. That has everything you need to wake those lights up. That's if they are not to far gone but will look better int he end regardless.

    Green Dex G05 or one size fits all

    I have a GM Master Mech buddy that in all his vehicles he rolls with house brand and does a 25/75 mix of coolant to water. Seeing as we live in the deep south it gets hot as hell and doesn't freeze for days/weeks on end. Since water dissipates heat better than coolant/antifreeze I swing that way...

    K5 rear drive shaft

    Could any of you gents with an 81 on up k5 measure the length of their rear shaft from eye to eye for me. I found one on eBay for 280 and I just want to see if it should be a direct drop in for me. It is eye to eye 29.5" and my measurement I took at home was 33.5" from the output shaft to the...

    I always disliked "cats" on my vehicles. Especially when they leave scratches down the hood. That is what you are referring to right?

    Would a cut burban shaft work? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rear-Drive-Shaft-4X4-AT-Fits-82-91-SUBURBAN-1500-501166/132970643459?fits=Model%3AK10+Suburban&hash=item1ef5ab0003:g:kEEAAOSwsv5ceGg2

    Yeah I have heard that a time or 2 about band aides for the 10 bolt. I have been looking for what ever I can get my hands on for the dark days. Only times I come across anything I am sitting on boat and they are gone by the time I get home. Ahhh the life of an oil field hand.

    Yeah my slip yolk is trashed but thats cool. I am pretty sure I can pick one up for next to nothing. And to have a spare is always a plus. If you make your way down south let me know.

    Yep still rocking the 10 bolt. I am pretty sure I could get one at the local Pull A Part.

    I came across that this afternoon. I was considering messaging to see if they have a rear drive shaft as well. I don't want to come off of $500 for a custom shaft.

    Good times. You are making me scratch for an F-body as well. I have a cam sitting in my shed that would drop in one nicely.

    Would love another hard top to cut for a summer top, drivers door/fender, cheap drive shaft.... Hell I can probably find use of a lot of an entire donor. Just to keep it out of the crusher

    Replacement panels quality

    For the extent of the parts have you checked out copart? You may be able to find a donor near you that would cut a lot of cost. But if you are dead set on aftermarket I haven't tried anything on a square but Keystone used to have some pretty well fitting aftermarket body panels for 90s 00s...

    Will a 24” or 26” wheel fit?

    Welcome. For the wheel size I think the vehicle will burst into flames with anything over a 16.5" wheel. On a serious note for a wheel that size would have to be narrow as hell I would imagine.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Mine got hit with the pressure washer the other day since it has been sitting for a couple years and half the paint blew off the hood. It is a sight now lol. Looks like the sealer had zero bond to the paint. No big deal. Once things get straight I am just gonna rhino line the whole damn thing...

    I could have kept it short and sweet but I woke up this morning full of shit. Not to mention 2 16oz cups of coffee laced with espresso to really get the juices flowing.

    K5 rear drive shaft

    70 on the highway and it cut loose from the slip yolk on the t case. So the u joint probably broke. At least the slip was still in the case. Went back looking for it while waiting for a wrecker but it was with no avail. It must have either one sprouted wings and flew to heaven or its mangled...

    Welding/body work

    Buffing wheel, weld through primer, panel bond and spot welds. Works like a charm for changing complete quarter panels and bed sides. As if you will find out that is all that holds most vehicles together.
