    1991 GMC Suburban Overland build Question(s),

    Its their basic round bar system and towers. They attach to the rain "gutters" over the front and rear doors (I don't have a picture handy). From there you can get their basket systems or other options they have available.

    1991 GMC Suburban Overland build Question(s),

    Welcome, I have a 1991 as well. I replaced the front leaf springs with new Ranchos for a about a 2.5" lift. I kept the original rear leaf springs and added a few leafs to add about another 3".

    Suburban barn doors stuck shut

    I've had the same issue with mine. The striker is made of flimsy plastic that starts to bend and will slip and wedge inside which can lock up the button. My redneck fix was to place a small piece of wood with a small hole that allowed the striker to slide in and make better contact. Its been...

    Secondary battery and isolator install complete!

    I recently did the dual battery and monitor on my 91 V1500 with the SPOD pulling from the secondary battery. Works great and glad I did since adding accessories will be a breeze. I'll see if I can get some pics up soon. Where are you mounting your switches?
