    Jack for Spare 35’s

    My factory jack for my suburban lifts my 33s no problem and has a couple of inches of room left. Any mounts nicely in its factory spot. Now if I could find my tire iron I'd be good to go.

    Under the Sheets. Supra MK3

    Unfortunately its a automatic. If it were stick I probably be worth alot more too. I got the struts all off last night and power steering rack is leaking. I'm having a hard time finding parts for this car that aren't a arm and leg. Rolling the dice on struts from amazon for 600 bucks. Compared...

    04 Suburban oil pan, whew

    I got a buddy with a 5.3 with bad lifter tick. It likes to puff a pile of blue smoke too on start up random times. Been like that for years. Lol. We have lost all bets on when its gonna die cause it keeps going.

    What lift kit did i just buy

    I agree I need to add some materials to them to go to underside of frame and way bigger bolts. They hang down roughly 2 inches lower then the frame. I got some 4 inch angle iron laying around so will probably use that. I cleaned up the springs and there rough country springs. They do not flex...

    What lift kit did i just buy

    Here's a few more pictures of the shackle drops. The welds on them actually look pretty good for a diy set. The shackle joint has a grease point aswell. Do we think it needs some extra bracing? Also its only held on by 4 bolts which not a fan of.

    What lift kit did i just buy

    So browsing the kijiji coffee and some one posted of this for 200 bucks. I said I'd be there for how ever it takes me to get to his place. The rear springs are 52s and look original so no good to me but the shackle flip may put me where I need to be with in dunno the lift of the front springs...

    Transfer case support brace. Who got one to sell?

    All this talk of the transmission brace and made me remember when I was painting my frame I noticed my front bolt had snapped off. Now my body is sitting back on the frame and isn't gonna be a easy fix now.

    What is this noise/chirp…speedometer cable?

    Sounds just like mine did. I actually pulled the hole cable out and cleaned and used speedo cable lube. The previous owner had used some sort of oil and was gummed up pretty bad.

    Factory power steering cooler? 1991 Suburba

    My 89 v1500 suburban has the same cooler and had a oil cooler. No secondary transmission cooler which I thought was wierd. I ditched the oil cooler on mine. On the lines I don't trust any lines that come from a store these days and just take them to my hydrualics shop and they do ten times...

    How much you think a rollback is worth

    It is a landoll deck. I went and took a little closer look and pretty much one is buying a frame and deck. The body is shot. It's got a carbed 350 with a sm465 and pto driven hydrualics. Tires are new but been sitting for 5 years so there probably toast. Good to know about the stinger. We...
