    What new tools have you got lately?

    I’ve been tempted to build something like this for my blast cabinet. Without a vac line hooked it gets so dusty to see what you’re doing. With a vac hooked up it just about kills the vacuum because the filter gets plugged immediately.

    FRONT DIFF SWAP

    Keep JK, JL, and JT all have Dana 44 DS differentials (depending upon options) and a few different widths options. Not sure if the widths would work in a square. They are commonly swapped by the jeep guys for Dana 60’s and can be found on Craigslist nearly new for about 1000-1500 with the 4:10...

    PLEASE HELP!!!

    Here’s a how it works to assist The inner part of your column which is moved by the shift lever has a square hole that moves a tab on the underside of the NSS Here’s the tab I was referring to, this is my old switch. Looks like the old switches have two screws in slotted holes behind it...

    PLEASE HELP!!!

    Yup ^^^^ I’m not sure if they all adjust the same but the new one I put on my project can just be pushed left and right without tools. Some may have screws with slotted holes you would need to loosen up to adjust. Put the column in park -Disconnect the plug on NSS with purple/yellow wire...

    PLEASE HELP!!!

    IDK…. Since your key won’t come out is the column shifted into “Park”? If the column isn’t in park the neutral switch will prevent starting and the key cylinder will keep the key from being removed. Did you bump the neutral safety switch while working on the switch? The neutral switch I am...

    Trailer Wiring Adapter

    I thought so too…. I had no idea these even existed. I would have just cut into the factory wiring, but this is way better

    LMC carpet color for '87 standard cab

    Another vote for ACC, I’ve installed several over the years with nothing but positive reviews. Plus, they have several options and upgrades to choose from depending upon budget

    Door Seal to big

    ^^^ This I was going to suggest lubing the weatherstrip (especially at the hinge side) with something. I smeared a thin layer of Vaseline on the door where it makes contact with the seal to get my doors to shut at all.

    How can i separate my rotor from hub? Looks like its all one piece need help!

    The last few brake jobs I had done on late model stuff it seems like factory brakes last way longer than my older vehicles. Front brakes on my square used to last like 30K or so, my wife's 2017 suburban had 112K miles when I dd the brakes last month. The rotors were still flat and not warped...

    Steering box frame reinforcement weld in plates

    This ^^^ The brace is more valuable than the patch kit on an unbroken frame.

    Stuck Hood

    When I started my restoration my hood hadn’t been opened since 2008. I was able to get it open a few inches and soaked the hinges in WD-40 and some ATF. After a few hours of gentle wiggling and a few more shots of oil it loosened up enough to start opening regularly.

    Fuel Pump Sending Unit Main Harness

    I’d gamble the Pink wire coming from the DS frame is the sending unit wire for the gas gauge, I believe it goes to the bulkhead

    Fuel Pump Sending Unit Main Harness

    Here’s a picture from when I took mine apart, I think it went over the PS frame and back through a grommet in the frame to the switch (not totally sure that was correct though)

    Fuel Pump Sending Unit Main Harness

    Pretty sure this is how mine was IIRC the grommet for that harness actually is a female-female 4 prong plug.

    Wiring diagram numbers

    I thought it was a number to identify which circuit so it can be found on other pages but you’re probably right

    Best Flowmaster

    You can always add in resonators if the in cab drone is too much for you. I tried two different mufflers on my jeep and even the mellower of them (flowmaster hush power) was intolerable on the freeway 1600-2200 RPM range. I added in a flowmaster resonator & it still sounds good when I stab the...

    door lock cyl. removal

    I got a set on amazon and a set from Summit, they came with the door handle gaskets. They're much cheaper on Summit if you're ordering enough stuff to get free shipping. Otherwise Amazon has the shipping cost built into the price, IIRC the set on Amazon was like $17 and Summit was $5 something.

    A couple more sensor questions

    I would probably notch a little relief cut in the header flange just so you could get a socket on the sensor without pulling the header in the event there is an issue. Assuming the hole and the sensor are both NPT you shouldn’t need to worry so long as there’s decent engagement. NPT threads...

    2.5” exhaust kit for 85 suburban?

    If you’re willing to do some welding and spend the time to fit everything this Flowmaster kit is a decent option, looks like the price has gone up a little since I did mine (I did same kit but in 2.25). The only thing it didn’t have was the mufflers, flanged connectors for manifolds, and I...

    Dakota Digital install with American Autowire harness- ETA adding TCI 4L60E control to the install

    You mean for the gear position indicator? I’d like to see how that works out. I was planning to try to use the GM sending unit from my 4L60e but couldn’t quite get everything figured out. I ended up using a DD sending unit. Factory sender: DD sender:
