I bot this rig in November 2011 in Phoenix, and since the brakes were grinding against the rotors, I immediately installed new Advance Auto premium pads, of course made in China. They have lasted 40k, and have worn the rotors a bit. I don't recall exactly which ones I bot, ceramic of metallic...

We have a '95 Suburban 3/4 ton 4x4, and when I bot it 3 years ago, I put on MB Razor 16" wheels and 285-75R16 Falken WildPeaks. The tires stick out past the fender flares, and the tire spray covers the side of the truck with whatever I drive thru, and I'm not wild about the look-wide...

It's for our '95 Suburban 6.5TD, has 279k now, and prolly original. Even the remans are from China... And Rock Auto is $180, and hard to find, it's mis-listed under brake booster, not hydro-boost. And they can't tell you where it's re-manned... I'd rather pay more and not change it in a year...

My '84 Suburban 6.2 diesel was shifting fine, (tho never had lockup), then on a trip back from Michigan to Adirondacks (2000 miles total), it quit shifting a couple hundred miles from home. It would only shift at way too hi an engine speed, and I tried rocking shifter, stabbing gas pedal...

So I decided to change the tranny oil on Mrs '95 Sub., and I thot I had a filter, but it was for a 700R4, so called FLAP accross town, and $14 from Taiwan w gasket, but the auto part around the corner is alot closer, so they sell Hastings, Made In USA, but it lists for $44, and I paid $33. I...

The bolt snapped, it was rusted 3/4 the way thru, so nothing I could have done differently. S I drilled the broken bolt, and drilled and DRILLED and D R I L L E D then broke a tap in the block, and extracted it w a special tool, and here's the damage

Our 1995 Suburban has been using a bit of anti freeze, and now it runs ruff on cold start up. Sounds like it's firing into the air cleaner, but it goes away after a few seconds or a minute, then runs perfect. It has a bit of blowby, but with 252k, and always good maintenance, it's not too bad...

I need a new front wheel bearing on my '95 Sub, and noticed Auto Zone lists just the bearing (as well as hub assy). Is it removable? I used to run a shop, and would swap these without having to trash the whole hub/flange assembly. 2nd question... Does the '95 bearing hub fit a '93? I looked...

I would like to tint mine. I know it's illegal, but as I understand it, they fine you, rarely unless for another violation, and let you keep the tint, so you can be fined again. How dark have you done yours? Cost? Tickets?

I'm looking to buy an original well patina'd '64 El Camino, and too many of them have the typical Small Block 283 or 327, so I thought the rebuilt 6.2 I have lying around would be a little different, and improve the mpg somewhat as well. Way back in the early 80's I had a '76 Ventura with the...

I just switched the one on my '95 Sub, it was a Delphi I bot somewhere. Now I'd like to keep a new one handy. Here's a copy of RockAuto... PRECISE Part # 402P3309 Pre-Pump -At Frame Part Image $27.79 SPECTRA PREMIUM / COOLING DEPOT Part # SP1127 (Only 9 Remaining) *...

I went for a wheel alignment today, and the shop amazingly didn't say I needed any front end parts. They did say I needed a caster camber kit. Amazing at 249k it's never been updated. anyways, they quoted $70 x 2 + $100 labor + the alignment. So I'll do the bolts myself, it's an easy job, but...

Title says it all... A good friend recommended K&W head gasket magic. I have a bottle of something from a truck I sold. Sub is the 'Weasel, a '95 6.5TD 4x4 3/4 ton w 250k. Recommendations? http://www.amazon.com/NanoTechnology-Permanent-Gasket-Repair-401232/product-reviews/B000EGNBMO I...

This C clip is often re used, and it popped off and allowed the oil to spew out from my 94 Suburban. This happened 3.5 years ago just after returning from a 4400 mile trip from Phoenix via Florida. Anyhow, 3.5 years later, the engine is finally being changed, and I just need the C Clips, or do I...

My wife's '93 K2500 4x4 Sub had some play in the LF wheel when I jacked it up to change the fuel pump. The RF didn't, so I suspect the wheel brng. It doesn't make any noise or feel ruff thru the wheel. In any case, I would like to buy a spare. I chkd RockAuto, and there are so many versions. I...

My friend has a 2007 Chevy 1500 Silverado 4x4 excab 6" bed, and he will be towing a 6000 lb trailer (loaded), and thinks he should install Timbren's. I think they're highly overrated, or promoted. He normally travels empty. I think they just are rubber bumper snubbers, and will do nothing to...

So I went to the Montreal International Car Show yest w a friend, and he was driving a '94 2wd Chev pickup. V6 w a NV3500. I have minimal to no knowledge about these trannys, and only hear the same old "they're junk". He explained that the '93 was the 1st year, and his '94 had a larger input...

I'm looking for a divorce, so if someone wants to take a test drive or just undercarraige pix of a ruff '64 El Camino in Grass Valley, pls PM me. It's a 327-300 4 speed, red red. I'm ready to buy another Cheby 6.5 to tow this junker home! Thx, Andrew 50ne8 57two 645zero best to text

My 6.5 wouldn't start the other day, and it was just a little below freezing. So I plugged her in, and put on the batt charger, and she was fine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_U7bKpTJ7zA I replaced both batts a couple of days ago, and it def cranks faster, but still has a few dead glow...

My '84 6.2 K20 Sub won't drop from fast idle. So 5 years ago, I disconnected the solenoid. I've just chngd the water pump, so now's a good time to put in a new switch. But what is it called/part number? I looked around, and almost found what I think I need...
