    AC Delco electric pumps available anymore?

    WOW, 4 fuel pumps in 2 years!! Here's food for thought, back around 1999, my wife's 1989 Isuzu Trooper had a failed fuel pump. I called the dealer and they wanted over $400 for the original pump. At the time I just couldn't afford to pay that much soooooooooooooo I purchased an aftermarket pump...

    Good morning to all. I am looking for a new sun visor decal that is located on the backside of the drivers side sun visor that shows the instructions for 4WD operation for a 1987 Chevrolet Suburban Silverado 4X4. Does anyone make this in today's world? Thanks.

    Best Door Hinge Lubricant

    I use pure 90W oil on ALL my door hinge components. I have a 1994 Chevy Suburban Silverado with 321,000 miles on it and I just FINALLY decided to change the drivers door hinge pins and bushings.....not that they were worn out but just a little too much movement for me. After ALL these years...

    AC Delco electric pumps available anymore?

    Greetings to all fellow GM Squarebody owners!! I wanted to know if ANYONE knows if AC Delco electric fuel pumps are made anymore. I have an aftermarket one installed in my 1987 Silverado (5.7) Suburban and the fuel pressure doesn't climb as high as it should on the initial "KEY ON" mode of the...

    What's it worth??

    So, what's a 1987 Chevrolet Suburban 4X4 worth these days? And YES, there is a 12,000 pound electric winch tucked underneath the front bumper.

    1987 Chevrolet Suburban 4X4 5.7 TBI

    Winch Bumper wanted!!

    Here is my first attempt at hiding a 12,000 LB winch UNDER the bumper and believe me, it wasn't easy doing it by myself. I "Attempted" to re-create the front bumper of the Dante's Peak Suburban and this was as close as I could get it without going broke and at the same time, keeping the original...

    1987 Chevrolet Suburban 4X4 208-C1 transfer case question

    Does anyone know who sells the BEST Chevy 208C transfer case rebuild kit? I see that this unit has Torrington bearings in it and someone double sealed the input drive gear putting TWO seals back to back, not a bad idea it seems..........

    1987 Chevy V10 Suburban 350 V8 4X4 Cruise Control Servo??

    Well, I fixed the servo a few weeks ago. Took it apart, cleaned it, replaced all of the rubber seal/o rings and made a new little internal filter. All ohm and voltage checks on the brake light switch, connections and module connector-ALL passed with flying colors. Then I sealed the large...

    I could choke a GM engineer!

    My 1994 Suburban did the same thing. I went to the local hardware store and bought a STEEL pipe nipple with barbs on it, it NEVER leaked again. I think the metal was zinc that the disconnect was made out of.
