    What have you done to your square lately??

    No change from before - 33 × 12.50 x 15. For some reason even with the PO installed 4 inch lift the fronts rub on tight turns coupled with an incline. Seems like 32s are just as expensive or more than a 33 and there are less options so for now 33s are it. BTW - I am getting maybe 22K out of...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Discount says that if they are at 2/32" they cannot service them including a rotation. So, unless I wanted to do it myself or buy 4 new tires and waste half the life of the rears pretty much my only choice. On the plus side, it looks cool. :Big Laugh: They put some sort of tire black on the...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Changed out the Valvoline Restore and Protect 5W30 for a fresh batch. Had topped off the last oil change enough times to where I had maybe a quart of my spare 5 quart jug left although I did use a half quart of it in the 4Runner. :cool: So, figured after roughly 1500 miles I would give her...

    High oil pressure after replacing pump

    If the oil filter gets clogged there is a bypass to protect it. Not sure what pressure that activities at, though. I am not sure how far the gauge will go but do know mines reads like yours - above 60 - when cold. Gas gauges will read past full without being bad or ungrounded and will drop...

    High oil pressure after replacing pump

    That's about what Goldie runs with the high volume oil pump and 5W30 Valvoline Restore and Protect oil. After good and warmed up coming to a stop from a highway I will see 22ish to almost 30 psi oil pressure. As someone said earlier- oil pressure is good! Prior to the high volume pump I had a...

    Update on my Ignition Module failure!

    LOL- EMP prof, too. Can't say that about my HEI. Can you still buy dwell meters, though ? :think:

    Update on my Ignition Module failure!

    I had a USA made Borg Warner HEI module crap out in a month or so. The replacement AC Delco is still going so it's the only replacement I would recommend. Good luck!

    Speedo working but Odometer not working

    As far as the speedo, I am not sure on how to repair that. Maybe there is a speedo repair place somewhat close that can help ? It is interesting that the speedo works as that tells me the speedo cable and transmission drive gear for it work as well. I am also assuming the oil line you...

    1984 Winnebago Elandan 31ft Class A Motorhome w/ Chevy 454 Big Block 7.4L Engine Owner in need of engine part identification/emissions hose help.

    No safety inspection for any non commercial vehicle this year. Pretty stupid as I always got behind non working brake lights even with safety inspections. But, the Fed does not require them so they were dropped.

    Black wire connected to indicator lamp

    Got a picture ? Sounds like the fiber optic plug on the right hand side of the cluster that illuminates the ashtray offhand.

    Your definition is CLOSE, but ... Below 70 = cold. :dogpile:

    Meet my Suburban

    Welcome from Houston and a fellow Sub owner. Won't say mine doesn't get love ( translation = $'s) :Big Laugh: but she has not seen upgrades like your's. Good job !

    Proportioning Valve and Bleeding

    Not sure who you are asking, but mine came from Amazon and was a PV2. Around 30 bux. I'd buy a used OE as a 1st choice if one can be found.

    If you live in PA and see this truck it’s mine!

    All the ones I ever dealt with had the door frames that stayed, but I was dealing with 76 plus vehicles. A quick search says that 74 was the only year to have partial window frames - I can't argue that. 81 up had no removable roof option. Much better electrical system, though. :Big Laugh...

    If you live in PA and see this truck it’s mine!

    80 was the last year of the removable roof and the only year of that body style with part time 4WD as far as I know. 81 was the new body style. https://www.grautogallery.com/vehicles/8131/1981-dodge-ramcharger

    Suburban Trans Pan removal help

    Not sure if a 2WD cross member set up is different than a 4WD but I remember using a 3/8 wobble and whatever size socket - 1/2" ? without too much trouble.

    Brake Issue

    I thought I noticed this as well. Found any manufacturers- like AC Delco- that are thicker?

    Turn signal switch

    Is the harmonica connector plugged all the way together? If so, still have the old switch? It can be plugged in to the connector under the column without being reinstalled in the column. If your hazards start working then I would say the new switch is also bad. Is the turn signal relay bad ...

    Front driveshaft - longer on a NP203 vs NP205 ? Same mount ?

    Do you remember if the transfer case end of the driveshafts were the same ? ( Round mounting flange) My thought was to buy a 203 front driveshaft shaft and gain the extra length needed for less than what the drive train shop could lengthen the old for.

    Proportioning Valve and Bleeding

    Save your old valve. My PV2 lasted around 2 years and started leaking. I noticed no difference between the new and the old and the old one is back on the truck. With no leaks ! :)

    Front driveshaft - longer on a NP203 vs NP205 ? Same mount ?

    Morning all ! I was looking at gear ratios for NP203 vs NP205 low and stumbled across a post saying the NP203 would use longer driveshaft. My OE driveshaft is too short with the 4 inch lift (on the Sub when I bought her) and maybe a new shaft to fit a NP203 would be less than having mine...
