    Mirror replacement

    Haven't PM'd anyone on here before, so I think I did it right.

    Idk if this helps but it’s RPO code DF2.

    Mirror replacement

    Right, that’s what I was potentially thinking. Seeing as how this is possibly going through insurance I figured they’d try to find the whole thing. Also I hit a traffic cone with the right one and bent one of the arms. So I was going to try to have a shop order 2 and I pay for one myself.

    Mirror replacement

    1987 2500 suburban. I just had a minor fender bender today. The driver side mirror was messed up pretty bad. The posts for it seem to be fine. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction to get it replaced. I looked up replacement mirrors and they all seem to be what’s...

    1987 suburban tbi 350 overheating.

    They read pretty much spot on. But it doesn’t seem to have the issue when I’m idling. I’ve been working on semis for the past 6 years, if I had a nickel for every part that was bad out of the box or went bad 6 months down the line. I’d just put my truck in a shop.

    1987 suburban tbi 350 overheating.

    Read front of block and intake manifold, temps are reading fine. Do you think it could be the impeller slipping on the water pump?

    Hard to do that since it only does it while driving. You’re more then welcome to hang out the window while I drive.

    1987 suburban tbi 350 overheating.

    If it did, it was before I got it. And the coolant has been drained countless times and flushed 3 times

    1987 suburban tbi 350 overheating.

    The suspicion came from it going up to 220-230 then back down about 20 seconds later. After I flushed and reinstalled a thermostat for the winter it would get up to 210(middle of gauge) and not go any high. Roughly 5k miles without issues. This whole thing has worried me since it wasn’t doing...

    1987 suburban tbi 350 overheating.

    I’m assuming the gauge is fine since it sweeps no issue. The 195 that was in it and the 180 that’s in it now are both Napa brand. It’s all I could get. Sensor for gauge is in head. 195 Tstat would run engine at 210 gauge rock steady before issue developed. 180 Tstat runs ~190, unsure since...

    3ish years ago Is there a way to test the pump? (Edited to ask question)

    1987 suburban tbi 350 overheating.

    ‘87 Suburban with TBI 350. As I drive up the road the temp gauge will climb to ~220-230, then fall back down to thermostat temp. It will do this repeatedly. I had changed the antifreeze and put a 195 thermostat back in it for winter. (About 2 months ago) I had hoped that it was a case of...

    Factory 3 point seat belt harness.

    Do you have a recommendation on how to clean them? I took them apart and cleaned/lubed them. It helped for about 2 weeks. My seatbelt being messed up doesn’t bother me to much. However the passenger seat being messed up scares me a lot.

    Factory 3 point seat belt harness.

    Not quite, mine is the style where the lap and shoulders retract together from the same place.

    Factory 3 point seat belt harness.

    I have an ‘87 suburban with factory 3 point retractable seatbelts. I’m trying to either replace the whole unit or replace the retractor. I have tried to look for replacements but I can only find lap belts and 3 point conversion belts. Both front seats have various issues locking up.

    Truck pulls to the right.

    I can check it, but it’s all got less than 20k miles on it. Replaced the entire front suspension and steering.

    Truck pulls to the right.

    It might be an idler arm. However, it’s a moog part and it’s got less then 20k on it.

    Truck pulls to the right.

    1987 R20 Suburban. What’s causing my braking issue? When ever I hit the brakes the truck pulls to the right. The harder I hit them the harder it pulls. To the point of needing to counter steer with some effort to avoid going in the ditch. Had to “panic” stop in the rain a few days ago, only...

    Any restart, even running the truck for less then 30 seconds.

    1987 Suburban Idle Issues

    Both, but only on restarts. Starts up fine cold. Even if all I do is run the truck for less then a minute. Sometimes reving it a little helps
