How Do I swap my 1985 c10 grille to a 88-91 suburban?
im going the other way, 90 to 85ish from the maddeningly small 4 lights to the big rectangles. you repin them.

The daily 93 lesabre
couple weeks ago I got a 99 Lesa for a daily driver/trip car as my teenager is 6ft tall. The back seat in the kia and jetta are awefully small. the 205hp series 2 is a pleasant wake up.

Buying an RV
I came to this dance late, but after owning for a few decades here is my $.05 Rule #1: All RVs leak. Dont care who made them, how new they are. How much it cost. All RVs leak.

You can make your own for less if you are handy - just got 100 super brights from parts express with 50 100ohm dropping resistors and 50 470 ohm...you can create them as a string, or separate so if one goes they do not all go. choose the right resistor and they will dim. Just did a kenwood...- quaddriver

Possible tranny problems
absolutely not. do not flush a trans. Period. End of story. There is no fluid path or possibility that this will work well. drop pan. drain converter (if not tapped, tap it) refill. Back to the OP: I didnt mean that you flushed it, I was responding elsewhere. Why I asked what I...- quaddriver

TH350 5,800 Rpm trans brake smoked trans
plus, not to be a negative nelly, but the 350 tranny, even built, is torque challenged...hp ratings dont come into play until its moving and shifting, its that first stab where the torque of your motor (prolly a lot) broke things. Your teardown shows that it came apart rather efficiently. If...- quaddriver
