    Calling y'all out!

    Agreed. But i only needed the one bottom. That ran me close to $300. if it were me looking to do a new interior, that would add up fast

    Calling y'all out!

    I bought a drivers seat bottom, foam and new heating element from the seat shop. Wasnt the cheapest option. But matches factory exactly. Easy install. For the price, might be best off finding a donor interior

    What did you pay for your HD hood?

    I think i have read they allow enough to roll over an edge. My guess would be then some kind of adhesive. Welding would get tricky not to warp.

    Horrible "death wobble" after new wheels/tires?

    im just throwing an idea out, even though i know it will be less likely. Dodges have had issue with death wobble for a long time due to a track bar used for centering the axle. I honestly havent dont much to my front suspension since buying this tahoe, but is there anything that maintains center...

    Dream Garages

    there is a guy on there, i forget his name. He built like a 100' x 180' building, then built his house inside it, and still had a huge shop shape. I think he was in texas. There are some really impressive builds, along with some good ideas for those without Queen Latifah money.

    Yukon dually ?

    the axels, or even panel swap for hood and fenders doesnt look awful. but getting that body line on the rear fender, splitting the dually fender flare, no thanks. Unless someone makes a kit for that. I would F that up severely.

    Is it just me, or does the rear wiper kind of suck?

    its interesting as you guys who have them dont want or never use them. I have barn doors, which i prefer. But it would be nice to have a functional rear wiper when its snow season. Key word being functional.

    from the drivers side, you can reach behind the intake manifold. the bulk of the 8 minutes was fumbling with the plug.
