    New door lock cylinders

    Well that was short lived "Orders only accepted from within the continental USA WE NO LONGER ACCEPT ANY ORDERS FROM OUTSIDE THE CONTINENTAL USA " Heck. Oh well, I'm broke anyway after our summer vacation, gonna take another look at this after the summer when I can finally afford to eat...

    New door lock cylinders

    Well hot dog buckaroo, I do believe you just made my problem disappear! I got barn doors and that's exactly what I've been looking for. Now the only question mark is shipping costs, what is this "GMC Pauls truck parts" shop, some small company apparently?

    New door lock cylinders

    Hi, As it happens my truck is old. 34 at this point and you can really see and feel that in the door lock cylinders. Now, buying new cylinders ain't no problem for a truck, but my truck happens to be a suburban and so far after endless scrolling, I have not found a cylinder kit for burbans. Of...

    Adding a headrest to a bench seat

    In a way that seems handy, but I'd imagine the trouble starts when you gotta move the seat forward or backward. Also it'd probably look a bit out of place

    Adding a headrest to a bench seat

    It's primary use is whiplash prevention indeed. And normally it's just that, but I have found myself using it for resting my head a time or two on longer roadtrips.

    Adding a headrest to a bench seat

    More likely I'd be adding height to the seatback in itself and A) try to source old headrests or the likelier option B) make completely new ones from scrap because you can't find separate old headrests and having already modified the seatbacks (in this scenario anyway) means I've got the tools...

    Adding a headrest to a bench seat

    I'm aware, but like I said, the biggest problem is availability. Also the backs are so low we'd have to pull the headrests so high it'd look stupid, but then again that's just my personall hell I'll have to bear if it comes to that. Because in the end, while I love form and wish to combine the...

    Adding a headrest to a bench seat

    I've got wore out old bucket seats in my 'burban, could use one extra seating position, and the missus wants to scoot on closer on roadtrips. So I want to swap in a bench seat. Or a 60/40 now that I think about it. I got a lead on a 1988-1994 bench seat out of a stepside with the low back. Now...

    West Coast Mirrors on square?

    Gonna bring this back once more; I want to add some sort of tow mirrors to my burb one day, and am probably gonna go for the small tripod ones because anything bigger would probably look stupid on a srw suburban... But while decoding my trucks RPO codes, I noticed on one list a code D46. They...

    Suburban central locking

    They don't lock nor unlock from either of the front door switches. I'm pretty convinced that the actuators work, but then again as far as I know all the wires are connected, so I may be wrong. Will have to test once I get home, unless someone can tell me a location of a connection I haven't yet...

    Suburban central locking

    Hi, I have a bit of a problem with my door locks I can't seem to figure out. The truck is a 1989 Suburban and the central locking doesn't work on the rear doors. The rearmost panel doors work, not too great, but work either way, that's just old age. But apparently when the truck was registered...
