Fix this Paint? Any ideas that I do not have to repaint the whole Suburban?
Yup, mine was a peeler as well. Remove as much as you are comfortable with. Bumpers, mirrors, grill, door handles, moldings, have the glass removed and take to a place like Miracle. Somewhere where they just do completes, they typically do a pretty good job in that is all they do. It’s a great...- Finkaire

Trans Fluid and Filter Replacement
BTW the reddish brown rubber gasket you can see in the picture is steel reinforced. The gasket got stuck inside my transmission body and was a nightmare to remove. Considering having the service done next time- Finkaire

Trans Fluid and Filter Replacement
Dex/Merc would be fine, get an OE filter and a Felpro gasket. If the pan looks distorted in any way get a new one, they are inexpensive. You might also consider installing a drain plug on the pan. My 2 cents!- Finkaire

If you haven’t destroyed, try leaving it in. You can also try blowing compressed air through the outlet of the evaporator along with the other suggestions -

Instrument cluster ground 87
Bad ground at the circuit board. Temporary fix was the paper clip, circuit board had an open near where it plugged in. New board and a box of bulbs as I recall, it’s been a while back- Finkaire

What have you done to your square lately??
Get a 6’ bed and shorten the frame, I know that it has been done. If memory serves me well I believe the frame might even be pre-drilled? -
'81 K30 4X4, 454 Exhaust Manifolds....time for headers ?
Happy Sunday! Headers are a PITA, they are noisy, they leak and the thought of possibly end-wrenching the plugs out of that big-block. I like the OE look under the hood as well. My 2-bits- Finkaire

What have you done to your square lately??
No rain today, decided to troubleshoot the wipers. First try they, they come on slow, change speed or turn off they refuse to come back on. Bypassed the module, no change. Cleaned the terminals at the motor and got them to consistently come on, dead slow, any speed is better than the squeegee. I... -
