Gotta love the 3:42 gears. gonna fill it tomorrow and figure mileage. Then next week a new IP.
Once it's warmed up then shut down,, it won't start without a drink of water. ;(
Hope to have it till the kids are grown, the...
with a tad over 200k on my 95, and an ip that after june 1st,, needs a bottle of water poured on it to start, I have sourced a new rebuilt with a few thou miles on it, as a replacement. So looking at going it for that, I thought chain and gears,, maybe all new buttons for rockers, and valve...
I've thought about doing a replacing my stock unit with a GM8 ( I know, not much of an upgrade) in my 95 burb, it's at 200k with 3:42 gears, has a tune, 4in exht, and I just would like a tad more power/mileage. I don't haul, nothing but kids and dogs, or sometimes the rider on a small...

With one mirror glass broke and one mirror not fully working, on my 1995 Suburban, I decided to order a new set.
So I ordered a 99 factory set with Power and Heated glass. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B008G1ZIOI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 for under $51.
My 95 had...
Well those 03 mirrors would of looked cool, I didn't want to butcher things up to make them fit right.
I instead ordered 99 mirrors for my 95. But I got the headed units. I know this has been done before with tow mirrors, but haven't found a good thread on doing it this way. I'm gonna start...
pulled and replaced a dead block heater. just pop it out,, puke coolant all over, and slip in right it,,, I said "Slip It Right In!!!" AH DAMN IT WHY WON'T IT JUST SLIP RIGHT IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy hell, that was a bit harder than it needed to be. for some reason the oring...
Well that was a bust,, with out some hacking involved, the 2003 - 06 mirrors wont fit. So im gonna return those. I did just order 1999 GM mirrors of tad differnt shape, with heat, as the 95 didn't have that option.

Ill keep the thread going once...
each mirror has the same 3 colors, the heated mirror has a separate connector with only 1 black in it. according to 88GMCTrucks posts, that goes to the d9 location, I'll get out there today, and do some probing, and figure it out. Guess I'll do pic's and a write up for clarity.
It's the least...
Bought a set of mirrors for a 2003 Silverado power with Heat.
My burb is power no heat. I found out how to rig the heat part, by installing a wire in cavity D9 (it's right beside the door buzzer) of the convenience center under the dash:
SO here is a pic of my old mirror wires,,, and the...

ok,, maybe not that place,,,, but I want the optimizer long block. Then I'd like to do a holset or a team along with it. I'll be happy that the one I have runs,,, and I get to keep my thousands of dollars! Cause I'm tight like that. ;)
no worries,,, The most work it gets is plowing snow. I don't tow anything, and family vaca's in mid summer is here in Michigan, and I go north. Not to say we don't see 100F here,, but even with AC kicking,, all black and full of family, dogs Kayak's on roof, I have NEVER seen over 205 on the...
new one was HO pump. Single stat,, FTB already done. When I bought it the 2nd owner's mechanic was all about Health diesel, and had most of his products/suggestions installed at the time.
So the Burb at 200K has decided to start hard or not at all when temps are over 80f after a shut down of 20- to 120 mins. Ip getting hot and out of spec. pour bottle of water on IP fires right up. I have located a New only 1000 mile IP a fella had installed then truck over heated for other...
