    Radiator brand recomendations?

    So i am leaking at my radiator inlet. Plastic? Really? It cracked and I have been limping along while leaning into the start of my busy season. Leaking off a quart in 7 miles. So figuring to replace the radiator, as that is easier to schedule than getting a shop to attempt an end cap swap...

    Bull Bar and NFab SS steps on the 96 CC

    Nerf bars = dirty pant legs. I pulled them off my F250 when I lived out west because I was on dirt roads 70% of the time. Always had a clean shiney spot where I got in and out. I only took off the drivers side, as I had a really close friend who was really short and she loved it! Took them off...

    What are your biggest pet peeves when it comes to other motorists?

    I see a new project for your brother Bison: how to connect a car battery to a trailer hitch (security and education). Sucks that is the way it is. I leave my keys in my truck and my house is always unlocked. I hate when I can't do that, it makes me sad. I would gladly share anything I have with...

    What are your biggest pet peeves when it comes to other motorists?

    I am amazed no one has mentioned my peeve: driving with hazards on, especially on the interstate, especially when you are moving with traffic. ???? What are you trying to communicate? Where are you going? How can I tell if you are going to turn? ???? Probably irks me because I was in the car...

    Fuel Filter Manager Screen FFM screen.

    Thanks for the video... although it lost you a sale! I thought mine was missing... I did not realize it was on the side by intent! Good to know! And so glad you have them when I need them.

    Ultimate Mileage Thread!

    Moving somewhere flat would likely help me a ton. Uphill both ways around town, constant grades on the interstate keep boost at 4 to 6. Sucks the fuel. I want a 1982! sounds great!

    Planning for transmission and engine work; what is best timing for ECM upgrade?

    Flashing that ECM makes a world of difference. I could not believe how much better the truck handled.

    1995 Suburban radio and speaker options?

    I have a different head in mine.. alpine. I want to swap it for a newer model with a USB input and a cd that reads mp3. Crutchfield.com has a great system for punching in model and year to get speaker sizes. Their prices are not bad. One stop shop: you can get harnesses to ease the install. I...

    Is this what ULSD is supposed to look like?

    That is my Georgia colors. Interesting that it is clear up in Alaska. Curious.

    Walking J Designs?

    Yes, the 1995 is the jump to a newer dash. Honestly I like the styling of the older trucks, but I love my Burb.

    Walking J Designs?

    Not much unfortunately.... just rattlestops. I would love to get a biofuel processor, but I don't think the fed will give me back that much moolah!

    What is your favorite recreational drink.

    I brew my own beer and have taps on a fridge in the garage... So I voted beer. Like the chevy 6.5, I have to do everything myself! I also love wine and scotch, though not much scotch these days. I do not drink much with a three year old and a four month old, work and starting another business.

    Common Cold Remedies and Treatments

    Garlic. Lots of garlic. Start now and it keeps away the people that don't cover their mouth when they sneeze as well! I am an Alka Seltzer cold plus and lots of liquids man as well... drink lots of water and hot tea and keep going.

    Homemade Shortie Straight Pipe

    Being cheap I might have emptied the kitty and just clamped on a turn down (angled slightly toward the side) immediately behind it. Works for me. I will likely do a DE system eventually, but this works for now. I got the turn down at AZ for a couple bucks.

    rumble before stop light braking

    I will check the lug nuts. I had not thought of that... but I would think I would feel that. But I took a second to lay down on the pavement when I got to work and I think I have a groove in the disc, so I am betting I am just hitting the bottom of the pads. I am going to pull it tomorrow and...
