Thanks on both accounts! We shall see if it gets a thread of just interjects randomly into the dually thread and hopefully the 88 thread here soon. It's not really a "project" like the 88..... The parts pile on that one is building up quick. It's happening.... soon. All the toys! Honestly...

Oh boy, what is this now... Well TTS, I'm back on the 6.5L train! Here we have a 97 GMC K1500 SLT suburban. It has 277k on it and randomly shuts off when it warms up... no way I know what that could be! The fleet is growing....

I can see by the shape and the standoffs on the sides those are actually the 3x5 headlights, they are slightly larger and do not fit this model truck.

motorsporttech is who made mine, they were custom made steel spacers to work with my weld wheels.

There is a bunch of info about the tire and wheel setup earlier in the thread. They are old Weld Alumadual II's and 255/85R16 Cooper Discoverer ST Maxx with a 1.5" spacer in the rear.

Another junkyard find in a 96 suburban... Oh how I love 90's GM for things like this. And, while it isn't everybody's cup of tea, I did install the Z71 guard on my truck. I like it but I also don't. It's rugged looking, but it's really just for looks as it's aluminum. It also needs a new coat...

Oh yes, they work great! So, there are three parts to the heated seats, the switch, a special relay under the seat, and the elements. If you get no heat on either setting, likely the element is broken (it's just a thin wire) and to complete the circuit both the base and back need to be...

Camping soon! Ebay. It is the leather/vinyl with 1/2" foam, but the main seat foam I haven't looked for as mine are in good shape. I haven't seen or not seen it, if that makes sense.

Did a few more mods to the dually the last month or so. Rag joint elimination. Makes the steering much more responsive, although I'm still due for balljoints. While at the junkyard, I happened across this set of heated leather buckets in a 99 suburban - and lucky me Devin happened to have a...

I've been super busy as spring & summer hit. It's the time of the year I camp, do home improvements and work on projects. Prior to tearing into the truck I had two major tasks I needed to complete: I needs more places to put parts, so I built a 10x20 shed from 99% recycled lumber (including the...

Been a bit since I've given any sort of update, so here you go! I mentioned the CR Lawrence slider, well I got that installed. They had the install with the cable running over the pillar trim and screwed to it... I said screw that. I dis-assembled the cable and ran it through the pillar and...

I do not. That was some time ago. 88-89 sealed beams, IMO, perform equal to or better than OEM composite lights. And with the LMC housings (or if you can find any bosch housings) they are ever better. 90+ composite headlights never changed design. The forward lighting harness has a plug...

I bought it for $700 for parts. It had 285k on it. 454/4L80E. Interior was trashed, body was good. I needed a few body panels for my trucks, and will be using all the electronics and dash to convert my 88 to vortec/new interior.

I've been super busy as spring & summer hit. It's the time of the year I camp, do home improvements and work on projects. I started out the springtime with a quad trip. I did a bunch of yard work - sanded and stained my deck, put in a concrete paver path, worked on the lawn and built a...

Someone in the MSD factory did I'm thinking.

This past weekend.... Welp, there is a first time for everything. Was driving home from helping install OEM 1-ton overloads on my friends K2500... Take off from a stopsign, loose all power, truck kicks and pops a few times and doesn't crank properly. I get it to the side of the road and try...

Always need more lights... Just have to find the most factory looking way to add them ---------------------------------- Picked up a $160 ebay soft tonneau cover. The quality is actually pretty good for the price TBH, would totally recommend. It's the "Tyger" brand and has a 10-year warranty...

That is just regular GMT800 GMC trim actually, nothing too special although it's not the most common one to see. -------- Some time back (2015) I picked up a set of OEM fog brackets in the junkyard. I finally broke down and bought a set of new GM lenses for them. The goal was to run an amber...

Cleaned up shot with the new body molding. Damn i need to get the chrome rear bumper on this thing pronto! I also have a full set of diamond plate bedrail caps, Debating on installing those or not.... Worried they would be too much on a black truck.
