    Fuel door

    So I found a small thread on page 16, wasn't what I was after... Google was useless. Figured the squareheads would know what to do. My fuel door replacement came in today. Installed it. I'm about to rip it off the hinges. Damn thing opens and closes fine, but when closed there is ALOT of...

    1800 7117

    Well that's just it fella's, light to moderate trail riding and my daily driver. Of course the 60 is badazz, ...it's also 500lbs and about $3000 after buying/rebuilding/locker/etc. Not exactly the right axle for me right now. Picked up the axles on Saturday morning. They came with the...

    1800 7117

    91' Suburban. And I'm in Canada, so no O'Reilly's I'm afraid. Said to hell with it. Bought a D44 and 14 bolt rear instead. Ty for the fast reply though '87.

    1800 7117

    Wth is 1800 7117 ? Google isn't giving me much. Anyone know what my replacement caliper should be with that number? The guys at autozone weren't much help lol I was expecting to find JD or JB something or other. Popped the wheel off the passenger side and found a large R 1 stamped on the...

    Head Gasket?

    Thanks for the headsup on the batt. disconnect. Never would have crossed my mind. @RT Not yet. I would have if necessary, but the fuel isn't the problem any longer. Just some sensors that needed to be replaced. I'll be replacing the fuel tank, sending unit, lines, and filter in the summer...

    Head Gasket?

    Haynes manual isn't in yet but other things were. Fancy multimeter thingamabob, just gotta read up on how to use it properly. The squeaking under the hood was driving me bat**** crazy so I bought a new belt. That fixed it for about an hour. Decided it was time to replace some things...

    Head Gasket?

    If they fix the problem that's great, but I'm not holding my breath. I just went through a month long debacle getting my speedo working. Turns out I didn't need anything but the screw in sensor for the t-case to make it work proper. It fixed a few other problems (slipping tranny/etc) as well...

    Head Gasket?

    Have I told you guys how awesome you are yet today? The EVAP system checks out so far. All lines are in good condition, even the connector rubbers are in solid shape. I started to read the link, but got lost at the *bng, *idk, *wtf, files. It is at the top of my bookmark list however. I'm...

    Head Gasket?

    I agree with ya crazy4, if it was the head gasket it would be more messed up then it already is. I was just thinking worse case scenario with the HG I reckon'. I panic quick when my daily driver doesn't run proper. ...besides, seeing a square not running is always a sad thing to see. I...

    Head Gasket?

    Checked all fluid levels, everything was fine. Took the air filter off to watch for any abnormality with the throttle body. My assistant turned the motor over for me and the truck fired up right away, the way it always has. No discolored exhaust, normal idle speed. Let it run for 20 minutes...

    Head Gasket?

    Thanks for the fast reply's guys. The air filter was replaced 1000 miles ago when I did the oil change. Just popped the cover and it looks clean n' new. All gaskets/seals are accounted for n' in fair to good condition. No blue smoke. Just white while turning the motor over, then turns...

    Head Gasket?

    Hi folks, about to spend alot of time googling and thought I'd start here. Was out for a drive yesterday, noticed the motor would drop off at 80kph as if I had taken my foot off the pedal. Got it up to 90kph and the problem seemed to have corrected itself. Went for a drive today, about 2...

    Suburban Third Row Install

    I've found a grey/bluish one off Kijiji. ...but like everything else it's a six hour round trip drive...(guys using it as a chair in his shop) Every wrecker/pick-a-part in a 300 mile radius crushed their squarebodys about a decade ago I've found out. Luckily our vendors here carry stuff...

    I like the idea of the rivets bucket. About to undergo this project as soon as I can source a seat.

    Hello from the Nord.

    Howdy folks. It's pretty damn hard to find a square body Suburban in Ontario, Canada that either isn't rusted beyond salvation...or fully restored n' going for around $10,000. So when the moment arrived ...(were talkin' 5 years of looking here) ...I pulled the trigger. Hardly any rust...
