    Paint prep

    So I got this hood for my wife’s 4Runner: Very good condition, but the 4Runner is Magnetic Grey, so this will need to be repainted. For prep, do I just sand down the existing paint and spray base and top coats over it? Or do I strip it down to bare metal, spray primer then base and top coats...

    Clank noise, Torsion bars at Rear

    On the ‘94 I get a momentary clank or ping noise when first backing up. Had my son observe while backing up and stopping and he said it was coming from the rear of the torsion bars where they insert into the crossmember. This also happens when going over speed bumps. Any ideas what is going on...

    ABS Light

    Ever since I bought the ‘99 K2500 Suburban in 2010, the ABS has been an issue. PO had pulled the plug to the ABS pump to avoid the ABS light. I briefly got it working by replacing senders at the bearing hubs. Then it went back into ABS light mode, until a couple episodes where it briefly worked...

    Door lock pin backing plate

    I went to install a new door lock pin on the ‘94 Suburban. Undid the pin and the backing plate dropped down into the door pillar. Shouldn’t that plate be spot welded in place? I was able to fish the plate out with a mechanic’s magnet. I’ve got it mostly held in place with a pair of needle nose...

    New Lift, Still Biting, Splash of Air

    Installed the new Raptor lift pump on the ‘99 K2500 Suburban It is very quiet, like I have to crawl under the truck to hear it working. Took it for a spin and it’s biting/stuttering badly. Got a video of the clear line and I can see periodic pulses of air: It gets worse the higher the rpm...
