    LTZ Seat Swap

    Maybe I'm missing the bolt holes. I didn't know the early ones were bolt in. I'm going to get back there and get looking. Thanks for the info.

    Trailer wiring

    The +5V should be the actual brake control circuit. The red brake wire should be for the lights. The +5V should be pulsed and looking for a load when nothing is connected.

    LTZ Seat Swap

    My suburban doesn't seem to have third row mounting points. Am I missing something?

    Drive shaft too short

    Welcome to the group. If you're going to do the lowering kit anyway, just do it and see where you're at. It's hard to tell exactly where the slip yoke will end up after the kit. It'll come forward a little, but likely not as much as you hope.

    LTZ Seat Swap

    Just had an idea for the back seat cleats. I'm going to make mine so the floor brackets go the same direction. Like a view of the front drawn in text: L-L Then I'll slot the floor bolt holes. Then I can just quick loosen the bolts, slide the cleats out, and tighten the bolts back down. Leave me...

    That third row seat looks sweet back there. I'm totally doing that in my 'burb.

    Electronic Shift NP203/NP205 Doubler

    If you're dead set on not using air, I'd use an inline linear actuator. Can mount just like an air cylinder. Way more universal that OEM style actuators.

    Little help please

    Welcome! Even on my race car I run a mechanical water pump. I'd suggest starting a project thread for general help or threads in daughter forums for specific issues.

    Ac liquid condenser line

    Along the same lines as fast 99, I'd solder or braze in something and never need to worry about it.

    LED conversion

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B084M8QRDX/ Adjustable speed flashers always work in my experience. I have one in my motorcycle, a friends VW Bug, and a few others. The only "downside" is that it will not hyperflash if you have a bulb out. It will happily flash away, even driving just a test light.

    TH350 Valve Body Modded

    Should be able to. Was the hole for the shaft also threaded and plugged?

    NEW Brothers Dash Bezels - CHEAP

    For $12.89 to my door, even if it IS junky, it's going to be better than my non-existent one.

    New build 454 and the wife hates the exhaust smell

    How long have you been running the sniper? Takes a little bit for Holley systems to lean out since fatter is generally safer. You could throw a smaller tune at it as well. Tell the unit it's a 396 or something.

    Replacing DVOM batteries

    Good metering habit is to test lead ohms before doing anything. Literally the first thing I always do. SHOOT! I not only is that a great idea, that lead (punny) me to these with a built in ATO fuse! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006YP7GSY/

    Replacing DVOM batteries

    I have found 9v batteries less prone to leaking. Likely due to their construction where any cell leakage is contained in the main body. My fluke uses a 9v. One of my cheapies uses a 9v. The others use AA or AAA. Find a cheap used Fluke 87 and beat the hell out of it. If you're patient, they can...

    LTZ Seat Swap

    Well, I'll be dipped. Found a pinout. Hope this helps. https://www.oemcarandtruckseats.com/blogs/knowledge-base/92612615-2007-2014-nnbs-chevy-gm-seat-swap-memory-bypass-heat-setup?srsltid=AfmBOorqU6ARdG6Mr5T-7TTuu3snSk9htEeCnjIYAaPosMivJesJGdkx Looks like pin A1-Light Blue is the driver seat...

    LTZ Seat Swap

    I have no idea on the specifics of that seat, but usually there's no temperature sensors in seats. They're usually thermally regulated. They only get as hot with how much power you throw at them. 14v is full tilt heat. If you measure the resistance of the heater, you can calculate how much heat...

    Identify wiring & 3 prone connector, located under driver side dash

    The third pin, when used, was for ignition power. Battery/Ignition/Ground in varying order, almost always with the ground pin on the single side, IIRC.

    '84 K20 Suburban re-wire

    The American Autowire universal kits are great. The Power Plus 20 is a bargain. GM pattern fuse panel, ignition connector, column comb connector. I've used a Power Plus, a Highway 15 and a Builder style system. They're all good universal style kits. For an OE style look and pretty cheap, the...

    What year tailgate is this??

    '73-'76 had the stud for the link arms on the tailgate and these also had the fingers. I believe '76 was a crossover year and could have either style. The '77-'87 had the stud on the latch without fingers. I think all the link arms had the space for the alignment fingers, no matter the year...

    A very expensive and dumb mistake (update I was wrong)

    Send it. If you've got 5.13 gears with an airlocker, you're not running at 85mph. I don't think you'll have any problem with it.

    Car Hauler tips/tricks/ideas

    Looks good to me. We mounted ours in a very similar way. Also, we used a waterproof deck sealant. Kinda like a roll on rubber. It's my buddy's trailer and that's what he wanted. Held up pretty well. When it's time for a re-coat, I think we'll just do some sort of bedliner. If it were MY...

    Whatcha do with that...?

    I was thinking the same thing. I keep a pair of old water pumps when I upgrade to better ones. If I have a pump let go, I have a spare I can throw on real quick. Having alternators around has saved my behind twice in recent history. 10/12si alternators are great and easy to rebuild. Even if the...

    700R4 leaking after sitting a while

    Double check the pan bolts. Never hurts.
