We moved to Montana. Diesel was still $3.77 yesterday, but other stations jumped from $3.83 to $3.99. Some stations in Missoula as high as $4.19. RUG was $3.83. Get out of kommifornia before it take you with it.

Doesn’t the diesel get far better mileage than the gasser?

So are you swapping the GMT-400 pedal rod into the GMT-800 Master Cylinder?

I will pick this read differential up tomorrow. Now I will have two to install. One for the ‘94 is already prepped for install and was ready 10 years ago. Oh well, life interruptus. I have more time in retirement to do this stuff.

I went to check out this axle. RPO Codes G80 for limited slip and GT4 for 3.73 gear ratio. Truck had 188K miles on it when he bought it from salvage. Parting out wrecks is his side hustle. He had already sold the engine and transmission. I will need to check old threads here on where to buy...

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1374302991290582/?mibextid=wwXIfr This a 2008 Chevrolet 2500 HD with 6.0 that’s being parted out in Missoula which is close to me. I inquired about the rear axle which should be a 14 bolt Full Floater G80. He checked by VIN# and it’s 3.73 gear ratio...

I can see interior parts I would want:

This is the current level of play in the steering wheel on my ‘99 Suburban:

The paint is like it has Leprosy.

Is that a a tow hitch?

After breaking a tie rod back on the ‘99 K2500 Suburban back in December 2025 due to over doing the ream job on a GMT-800 brake conversion, I’ve been going tbrough this truck to address vibration at highway speeds (70 to 75 mph). I went through the issue with a bad install on right rear brake...

I ordered off your hated RockAuto, but SKP is Hecho in China anyway. I think you would need the SKP w/o the rear window defogger for the Hummer.

I have it, but they have different units depending on whether you have rear window defogger, which the Suburban does. It’s a unit by SKP, so it’s Chinese.

Arrived at Montana home and had a delivery of a new HVAC control unit for the ‘99 Suburban. Old one stopped working properly. Fan was always on, no matter the position and there was no change in speed. New one installed in minutes and back to working normal.

Yeah, the differentials are not designed to move side to side. Those bushings are not designed for side to side movement.

I never fear crawling under these trucks and inspecting. It’s how you learn and ultimately know your rig.

“See- that is enough to understand what info you are looking for. They weren’t trying to be jerks in the first couple responses. I read it and skipped replying because I didn’t understand what you were asking.” Same here.

You have had so many issues going on with that truck. I thought you said that you had the lift installed? Now interference from a 6.2 pan, vs a 6.5 pan. Remind me why a 6.2 was used in this truck?

Don’t grind your differential cooling fin. You’ve got to assume that is also structural. Better to install a 6.5 oil pan on it. I’m thinking your 6.2 oil pan came off a 2wd truck. P.S. wrote this before reading Brandon’s post on swapping in a 6.5 oil pan.

You should not have that much stress in life that you are waking up at 3:00 am thinking about shit. You are RETIRED!
