People flashing their brights at me...
I don't have a 2021 but there are lots of adjustment videos out there. I have Hella hid's on 3 vehicles and set them a couple degrees low so I don't blind others while topping hills. -
Barn Door Hinges
I constantly oiled the hinges but they were still stiff. Installed Zerk fittings. The doors have never been so smooth. -

Update 5/2/21 - Bounce and Porpoising - Especially Towing
No help other than what the others have mentioned. I have about the same vehicle, 2005 2500 8.1L, all stock except for the H2 wheels and somewhat oversize tires. Have towed trailers from aluminum snowmobile to 10k travel trailers and I haven't had porpoising. Tire pressure and tongue weight is...- iCajun

If you have a roof rack you might want to check in the area of the screws that hold it on. -

Surprising how many of what appear to be new SUV types with LED's that are aimed way high. On hazy mornings I can obviously see their low-beam cutoff going over my roof. Yes they are blinding. -
Sorry to ask this question!
Sometimes a fence charger will work, depending on how the cat jumps up on it.- iCajun

1998 Suburban C2500 Towing Performance
Plan on 12-13 mpg with a 454. interstate, cruise control, no trailer. Not terrible for 6500 lbs shaped like a brick. Plan on 8 mpg fully loaded, towing and doing what it was designed to do.- iCajun

1998 Suburban C2500 Towing Performance
Had a 99 K2500 Suburban with the 454 and towed various trailers through Kentucky and Tennessee, thought it did well. I consider the 454 very reliable, though the oil pressure sensor is a pain to change.- iCajun

New member, same story
For an easy and cheap upgrade I recommend swapping in 88-90 quad headlights, much better beam pattern. Relays and heavy gauge wire is a plus. I didn't find that burning all 4 on Hi Beam was a real improvement. -
Exhaust System Replacement
This was an evolution, not a well thought out plan. Started with long tube headers, a Flowmaster 10 on each side and duals out the rear, nothing is in the stock location. I don’t have a photo but I’ll try and describe the present configuration. On each side, from the header is a couple feet of...- iCajun
