I used these on my Yakima rack and it is a very nice and elegant solution. Mine worked great and was super easy to install. But, yes they are on the expensive side.

I saw these at Expo East also and I thought it looked mighty bare. However I haven't been able to get this thing off my mind. I have a hard time justifying the expense of a dedicated trailer for camping and the idea that I have something that is dual purpose is extremely appealing to me! I have...

I saw that video about cutting a hole in the floor but that is above my pay grade at this time. It was definitely an electrical or possibly a rotational sound. I wonder if it just got hot pumping fuel for 3.5 hours or so. I do have heavy jack stands and have watched videos of how to change it...

2001 suburban 1500 with 150,000 on the clock. I drove back from Asheville on Wednesday, probably 3 to 3.5 hours of highway speeds time. When I stopped to drop off a passenger I heard a very loud humming buzzing sound coming from the rear of the vehicle. I didn't notice any performance or...

Rayra you are the man! whoa! they have ac delco for $3.00 thanks for the heads up!

Wow!!!! I expect some markup but that is steep! How hard are these things to change yourself on the 5.3 with average hand tools? I haven't changed a plug in 35 years myself. As a kid I would watch my father work on stuff and he would spend a week doing it with multiple trips to town to buy...

Well I took the Suburban and dropped it off at the shop and asked them to go over it. Surprisingly they said it was in overall great shape. Bushings looked good, ball joints looked great and were tight. The Nivomat shocks looked great and they suggested not replacing them, plug wires were...

I could be talked into parting with my '06 F550 4X4 Lariat for the right price... :smiley_drive: It can pull awesome but mileage is a little bit on the shall we say low side. :Wow1:

Justcuz: I was just thinking about the brake swap options today. I was thinking that I had heard something about this a while back. I have the ZW7? with the self adjusting shocks. I talked to a shop today that is associated with strutmasters and he was saying I could switch to an active...

Thanks Rayra. I have found bits and pieces in various threads but I was wondering if someone had written up a thread that had more details in one place and my searches had failed to find it. I check out the thread you listed above. Have a great one

I have noticed that the ride on my Suburban is getting rougher and tighter feeling. Thinking it is time to redo the suspension. Looking for suggestions or links to threads that have had favorable results. My local shop only wants to replace with factory replacement style products but I would...

I thought the same thing. How bad can it be? I have a 2006 F550 4wd with around 90k on it. I have spent around $7,000 so far this year on various problems. (as my bookkeeper just informed me) I have replaced 4 injectors, the turbo, had to have both fuel tanks removed, cleaned and recoated...

Thanks for the blinking light tip. I have been running a 2000 for 5 years now. runs 5 sets of 4 foot fluorescent lights and phone charger for eight hours on one gallon of gas. Amazing! I change the oil once a year when I take the truck down for maintenance and it has been a champ! Starts in...

OK, why are all of my images sideways??

a few more pictures

Just wanted to share my first thoughts on this awning. I got it for Christmas and couldn't wait so I headed out to inbox everything and check it out. The awning is well built and comes out of the shipping tube just begging to go on the vehicle. Likewise the brackets came out of the package...

Got home today and I believe the fourtreks made it before the big day! Wtg Santzs helpers! Merry Christmas to all and to all good shade.

OK its official! You guys are bad influences! I have it on good authority that Santa will be dropping an awning down the chimney. I measured and while it will be tight, the awning can make the turn to come out of the fireplace and into the room. Also a set of fourtreks brackets will be...

Thanks for all of the info guys! I downloaded the guide and was blown away by the number of options that were available. It was fun looking up what the codes meant. Almost like opening presents! Sounds like I should be in pretty good shape with just regular maintenance and a trans temp...

So if BOB has upgraded brakes does that mean it has the same brakes as a 2500? That is a very big plus if it does!
