Picked up a 10 suburban, tried putting on some ram 18”s but they won’t fit due the BBK already installed. Prefer the 18’s than the 20”’s it’s on now. Looks like going back to stock rotors and pads[/GALLERY]

Ok now that the wiper motor is unplugged and removed the rear glass won’t unlatch. I knew the wiring was related between the 2 parts. Does anybody have a wiring schematic for the rear tailgate?


Of course I did not realize this until everything was put back together. ****...
My guess it wont open no matter what you do until the wiper motor is replaced and wiper arm is installed properly in the parked position, it's a safety interlock so you can't open the rear glass and then whack yourself with the wiper arm in the process.

Just replaced my ISS and started on the Dorman Y/coolant lines.

Is there some trick to get the line off from the firewall? I just watched a video and he got it off pretty quickly but, mine will not budge. Is there a tool to help the removal ?

I apply pressure to the locking tabs then push in on the fitting, towards the firewall. This relieves the tension on the tabs and they push in much more easily. If you push in too far, you pass the point where the tension is released and you put them in a bind again. So you have to squeeze them first then push in on the fitting. As soon as they pop in, then you stop pushing inward and continue to hold them in as you gently twist and pull out. Works every time, easy peasy. You can do it with one hand if you have decent pinching strength in your fingers. You can use long-reach 90° needle-nosed pliers, too.

That's exactly what I said and did today, **** you, snip snip :) and kept saying fuuuuuuuuck while it pissed fluid out for what seemed to be 20 minutes haha.
Today was an interesting day to say the least. The only thing that went smoothly was the ISS, heater bit me in the dick and the door pin, who the eff designed that friggin thing.

The only other door pins I've replaced were on my 99 2dr. It was pretty easy, grinding the tops is the same, pretty easy with my dynafile. It fell out on my 99, not the 07. I had to beat the crap out of it and it finally came out. I had to remove the bolt going into the body to fit a socket around the little torque lock nut not like the plastic lined lock nut. It was a pain and it needs to be threaded on roughly a 1/4 inch. Getting the spring out wasn't bad, getting it back in was a ***** because the spring tool didn't really fit. I had to remove the bolt closest to the driver in the door to fit the tool with the spring. I had to use a hammer to fit the tool on the spring and make sure to get the outer most coil and tighten the shit out of it. That and removing the bolt will fit.
So yeah, it is a ***** haha
