    I installed lift keys to get it level & installed bilstein 5100 shocks. Huge improvement in ride - it was resting on the bump stops before. Took a quick test drive and the steering is very loose now that the front end isn’t resting on the a-arms! Planned on getting an alignment this week but I’m...

    First road trip plans require another seat. I’m on the search for a tan/neutral leather bench 2nd row to swap out the captain seats. I’ve found several on marketplace in the wrong color. Any suggestions on where else to look?

    I am potentially buying a 2003 suburban z71 this weekend (if everything works out). I will then need to drive it home 15hrs. The owner has suggested new tires before the trip (due to tire age). My goal is to match the exterior of the suburban in the video below. With the same set up bilstein...
