No Jeff, I was alone on my truck and the lady I hit was alone. She said she wasn't hurt and it honestly felt like I barely bumped her. My back was definitely hurting worse, but that was about the extent of my injury. I ended up having to get the transmission fixed a few weeks after the wreck. I...

Small update:. Well I have not been on here in quite a while, so those who are not friends with me on social media might not know that my truck was recently involved in an accident. It was just a few months ago, and I still have not had it fully repaired. I replaced the busted transmission...

Well if you used some GOOD Iridium plugs then you will not have to do it again for another 100k miles. :thumbs: Plugs are not exactly considered a maintenance item like they used to be. That's why car manufacturers don't care about making them easy to get to. If they will only need to be...

That's why so many cars use Iridium plugs these days. The plugs are SO difficult to get to, that they use the 100k mile Iridium plugs so you won't have to replace them often. The average person should get at least 5-7 years out a set.

The back passenger side plug on my 01 Suburban is by far the most difficult. I have a 1 inch extension that makes it the perfect legnth to get right in there and makes it a LOT easier. I've helped a few friends change theirs on Silverados and it was actually easier. I finally realized that my...

Hell yeah! Now I can place yet another order and add to my Rockauto fridge magnet collection. :D

Damn Corey that sucks. Who put the leveling kit on? If it was a shop, I would at least blast them on the internet. I know that you can't get them to take responsibility after 2 years, but you can at least give them a negative review on Google or Yelp or something.

Mine went out this summer. Since I can't remove the bed on a Suburban, I had no choice but to drop the 30 gallon tank which happened to still be about half full. I ended up tilting it down so I could drain as much of the gas as possible into a bucket. I then had my 16 year old son help me lower...

I can tell you for SURE that the wiring was indeed changed in 2003. So a 99-02 harness will NOT work in a 2004. A 2003-2006 harness should work fine though. And the lower courtesy lights stopped in 02, the 2003's did not have them. But it's a very simple upgrade to just add some lights and...

I'm sure you will find another vehicle in no time that you can put those tires on.

Oh, and I almost forgot, I replaced all my front brakes this last weekend. I used Powerstop black zinc plated rotors, the Powerstop red powder coated calipers and brackets, and Wagner Thermoquiet Ceramic pads. I used 2007+ brakes which are a little over an inch bigger than my stock sized rotors...

Shopping for a new battery for it. The Autocraft Gold Battery that's in it now is over 5 years old, so I guess that it's about time. I'm considering a AGM "Duracell" battery from Sam's club. It's actually one of the cheapest batteries I've found and come to find out, it's made by DEKA/East Penn...

I'll take 6 quarts of 5w30 please. :D

I remember my brother had a 1990 Sedan DeVille. It didn't have VATS though. :dunno: I'm not sure if that was an option or not, or exactly what year they started if it WAS standard. But I do remember that he had a similar problem with his ignition switch, it would start to stick sometimes so he...

I have well over a dozen of these magnets on my fridge. LOL

Glad they finally saw it your way and took care of it. :thumbs:

I have a friend in theNew Orleans area looking for someone who can tune his 1987 Buick Grand National. Do you guys tune Grand Nationals?

I've been running Yokohama Geolandar AT's for the last few years now. I just bought a new set this summer. I don't have 4wd, but what little bit of mud I manage to get into, they do OK in. I have had the pleasure of driving them in the snow and they did really good in my opinion. I can't really...

If you have not already done so, you need to permanently ground the yellow wires. That will make your low beams stay on with the high beams, that way all four headlights stay lit instead of the lows turning off when you turn your high beams on. Doing this mod "may" also solve your problem as...

On my 2001 Suburban, I do remember when I first replaced my original factory spark plugs at about 70k miles or so, they were actually NGK plugs. I also remember reading somewhere that the AC Delco 41-110s were actually made by NGK. Last time I replaced my plugs, I didn't see the AC Delco...

Trust me, I would get rid of it if it was that easy. Because of the accidents, its now lowered the potential resale value of the car. We actually tried to trade it in after the 3rd accident and every dealer we talked to ran a history report and SEVERELY lowballed us on trade in value due to the...

Just got back from New Orleans. The ole Suburban is still an awesome road trip vehicle. We actually have a 2015 Altima rental car that sat in the driveway for the last 5 days while we were gone. It sure was tempting to take the rental, but I MUCH prefer the extra room in my Suburban when...

Replaced the knock sensors and the wiring harness, replaced the air filter, replaced the cabin air filter, replaced my DRL bulbs, replaced a rear window regulator assembly, replaced the fuel filter, replaced my old yellowing headlight with new TYC headlights, and I FINALLY installed my chrome...

I finally got around to tackling this. I've had the parts for months now, just been putting it off. BeBut I finally started working on it this weekend. Back was killing me though, had to keep stopping and take breaks. John, I did take your advice about the oxycodone. :lol: There was 15 years...
