Huh, never heard of that. I had an '02 Silverado and now this '00 - both cabin filters required removal of the plastic "pan" under the dash on the passenger side. These guys show it well: My job was harder because I had to go buy a 1/4" ratchet set to duplicate the one I already own but is in...

Spent two days on the paint - using a polishing compound then a good carnuba wax. Got a look at the spare and it was 9 years old, so got that replaced at Discount Tire and lubed up the tire winch while it was out. Decided to take advantage of the blank slate status and do some sound...

Howdy all. Just picked up a clean '00 3/4 ton 4x4 Suburban to start a mild camper build on. It's got the 6.0, rear hatch, a bit bigger tires than stock, and a nice aftermarket stereo. I've got a '08 Toyota Sienna that we've been camping out of for several years (more on that build). Basically...
