    Jump seat swap

    Hey, I've got an 01 Tahoe that has the captains chairs and low console (kinda like the obs trucks had). I'm interested in swapping to a jump seat like came in the newer Silverados with the three cup holders and the storage under the seat. I've heard they swap right in, just that the fabric color...

    Yet another AC question. Regards to blend doors.

    After replacing many a part on my AC I feel very stupid. It started with a blower motor controller (replaced with a beefier one. Old one was a bit worn but might have still worked) and went to the fan control switch. Ended up snapping the brittle plastic on the AC head. Replaced the whole panel...

    Black Betty gets cool

    Well the next week radiator thing didn't happen but I did end up doing an oil and filter change with a top up of power steering fluid. This weekend however I managed to get the new radiator installed. Radiator was an OEM style one off of Amazon. Took the bottom cover off and the fan shroud...

    Possibly looking for a new HU

    Probably has been answered before, but because my grandfather has had to put a new HU in his Silverado, I figure I should ask if there are any single dins that don't have a bunch of flahy lights on them? What I mean is like while I'm driving there won't be a bunch of garbage scrolling across the...

    New brakes for 'ol Black Betty

    My project for the weekend was to put some new brakes on my '97 'hoe so I don't go playing bumper cars every time I wanna stop. Took all the wheels off and removed the drum from the back so all the pads could be checked front and rear. Found that the fronts were nearly into the metal on the...

    Factory options

    It wouldn't surprise me if people have installed x aftermarket part, but was there a factory option to have a bigger gas tank? My manual says it has a thirty gallon tank but it seems more like the mid twenty range. The gas gauge hasn't worked since I was little so I can't compare when I fill up...

    Crazy fuel gauge

    I know fuel gauge problems have been addressed before but that's not my point. Today I was driving and I noticed that the fuel gauge was going insane. It'd snap from a quarter, to full, to empty, up past full, and got to the point where it was turning three sixty and knocking the oil pressure...

    Ammo cans

    Has anybody mounted ammo cans on their truck anywhere? (Like maybe in the back or on a rear gate) I'm wondering if there's any good place to mount one or two. Starting to get ideas for an offroad camper in the back of mine .. Obviously space will need to be used wisely. Posting in general...

    Overhead console blank ideas

    Figured since I don't see a thread for it after a quick search, I'll start one. Post pics of your overhead console mods, maybe it's yet to be seen. Have only seen one pic of an OBS with an inclinometer. I know the switches and gauges are popular to put up there, but what else might be put...

    Humming, type noise when in gear

    On my 97 hoe, when I'm im any gear besides park, there is a humming noise. I don't think it's the engine, and my dad says that some gears in the tranny have some chipped teeth. It hasn't really effected it, it seems. Still goes over 320 miles a tank. Thing is, I'm afraid it's screwing up the...

    Stupid question for the two door owners.

    I currently have a 97 four door hoe. Love it to death! My father used it to tow his f350 today, actually. Anyways, my question, since I'm interested in a 2 door Hoe, is as follows: Do the rear seats fold flat in your Tahoe or do they remain at a bit of an angle? Ive done my best to answer...

    Newbie from MO

    Hi, I'm The Arkle. I'm a gender fluid/androgynous furry from western Missouri here to join the fun. I'm a musician, gamer, and a bit of a racer (12D Scott Drake, baby!) I own a 1997 fully loaded LT hoe with almost 300K, but am considering a 2003 LT hoe if I can find one I like. Hit me...
