    Man those are slick, never seen them before. Were they OEM or aftermarket? I could use a set for my truck too

    Aiming Headlights Procedure?

    Howdy. 87 Suburban with all stock lights as far as I can tell. Got home from work a few days ago and noticed one of my headlights was looking down at the ground at an ugly angle. I pulled the cover trim and found one of the adjuster screws just dangling, looks like the dinky plastic clips that...

    Windshield Wiper Refill bulk buy? Best Deal?

    well after more digging, it looks like I can buy them from China for less than $2 for a pair. For that price I'll roll the dice on if it'll ever make it here or not. :) The internet says it's all pretty much made in the same factory, just different packaging and labels, so we'll see how that goes.

    Windshield Wiper Refill bulk buy? Best Deal?

    Howdy. Once again I find my wiper blades need replacing, I swear it's getting to where I'm doing it almost every year for all my vehicles. I am wondering if anyone knows of any source to just buy like a 20' roll of the refill blade rubber? Currently the best deal I have found is like this...

    What Seat Is This? (Front fold down between buckets)

    Sharp eye Skysurfer! That's the one. Love the prison guard rear windows!!! :) So next question, i know we've all probably seen inside newer minivans these days, they all have the little narrow middle seat that's removable. Anybody fit one of those between 2 buckets? I'm sure one would fit, just...

    What Seat Is This? (Front fold down between buckets)

    Well rats, the upholstery looked like a factory match, so I was hopeful. If anybody finds one, I'd love to have it. Too bad this one is in Ca. I guess I'll keep looking, thanks.

    What Seat Is This? (Front fold down between buckets)

    Howdy, I saw this in an ad for an 85 Suburban, never seen a front seat like that. Is that a stock option? If so, what is it called, and what years and what other models was it offered? I'd love to find one for my 87 just to have that extra seat available. Thanks,

    Suburban Rear Heat & AC removal/installation/compatability

    Howdy. My 87 Suburban did not come with rear heat or AC, but it does have factory in-dash AC. There's a guy parting one locally that supposedly has both, and I'm going to check it out this week. However, in doing some reading in old threads here, it looks like the rear heat was a completely...

    Stock Seatbelt Retractor Weight loose?

    Best I can suggest is just GENTLY wiggling things back and forth, see if you can see anything that looks out of place or is sticking out. Big question, did it use to work fine? If so, then probably like mine something came loose or something. Now if it hasn't worked in years, then who knows what...

    Stock Seatbelt Retractor Weight loose?

    well wish I would have seen that beforehand! That probably would have saved some time wiggling and jiggling. FWIW I did finally wiggle the right thing, and a little plastic piece attached to a teeny metal spring clicked up, and now it works fine again. Probably just yanked it too hard or...

    Stock Seatbelt Retractor Weight loose?

    Thanks AK guy, guess I should have posted a pic. Mine seems to be different from yours. take a look where I circled it in red, seems like there's a spring that's sticking out, holding the bar out. Like when you put in a kids' car seat, you pull the seatbelt out all the way, and it clicks back...

    Stock Seatbelt Retractor Weight loose?

    Good afternoon. This is my 87 Suburban if it matters, passenger front seatbelt. After working fine since I got it, today a passenger tried to pull out the seatbelt and it was stuck, wouldn't budge. This was the lap retractor, shoulder side pulled fine. So I popped the cover, and it looks like...

    Junkyard yellow marking pen?

    Howdy. I am trying to find one of those yellow markers like they use in junkyards. You know, they mark the part just right over the dirt and grime and yet nothing in the universe will clean it off? I thought they were grease pencils, or china markers, but I picked up a couple of those and they...

    Removing Suburban rear corner lower trim?

    OK so pretty much all the lower stick-on trim on my 87 Suburban Silverado was gone when I bought it. In fact the ONLY piece left is the lower rear corner piece, but it is not glued on, it seems to have some sort of clips. I have gently tried to pry it off with a putty knife, but it just wants to...

    Optima Batteries worth the cost?

    So it looks like Sams Club has a Deka/East Penn Made in USA battery for $103, which is a LOT cheaper than everywhere else, if that's not junk...Walmart is only $88 (both 3 year batteries) but I can't find out the manufacturer of it. From more and more poking around it seems like Deka is better...

    Optima Batteries worth the cost?

    So the 'Burb needs batteries, (6.2 diesel, so dual battery setup) and I want to get the biggest/heaviest duty ones I can. Also long-lasting would be a big plus. It looks like I can get an optima red top, same size, CCA, for about $60 more than the "platinum" series. So my question is it worth...
