    99 K2500 Burb Adventure/Camping/Hunting Rig

    On the last trip I noticed some voltage anomalies as well. On the trip up, the voltage was hanging right around 12(verified with a 12v plug in digital volt meter). Had me a little concerned, but everything seemed to be operating fine, and the voltage wasn't dropping. On the trip down, voltage...

    Edit: accidental post, but since I needed to put something. If there is interest, I can make a separate thread, and document my camping/exploration as well as showing all the nice gear I bought myself.

    99 K2500 Burb Adventure/Camping/Hunting Rig

    I guess I can be a little more descriptive and add some pictures ;) Thule 415 feet (also may be under 1054 p/n). They are discontinued so I found them on Ebay. I used to have these on my Subaru and they worked great. Inno 65" square cross bars. Same exact dimensions as Thule bars, for 1/2 the...

    I also was able to get out camping for the first time on Saturday. I was hoping to see the Norther Lights, but we were not lucky enough for that. However my kids and I did have a great time, and I got 11.8 mpg on a 130mile trip through the mountains. That impressed me especially with the...

    Finally resolved the brake issue. Yes over a year later(I was deployed for 6 months, and then barely drove it over the winter). The issue was the front drivers wheel. I put the truck up on jack stands, and could rotate all wheels freely. I started the truck, pushed the brakes, and could not...

    Looking on how to Wire up sequential “turn signal” Tow Mirrors and make them function?

    These are the ones I bought, power, heated, and lights/turn. I haven't had a chance to wire them up yet, but they function well. The upper glass does shake a bit, but not as bad as others I have seen. https://www.ebay.com/itm/185265684126

    Next up is getting the brake issue fixed. I believe it's actually the rear drivers side that's grabbing. I'm hoping it's just an adjustment issue. Then fixing the AC(has a hole in one of the lines at the compressor). Wiring up the mirrors so everything works. Mounting the rooftop tent.

    Finally got around to doing my center caps. I think they turned out great! At first they were significantly darker than the wheels. The wheels were real dirty though. The last picture is after a hard rain. Still not a perfect match, but they look way better than not having center caps.

    GCWR -Suburban

    This reflects what I have found in my searches as well. I have crossed the scale at the dump at 20k lbs(so 3k over GCWR) though. Oops! Loaded a dump trailer with dirt at night. It rained all night, and was extremely heavy. After that load I didn't load nearly as much for the remaining runs I...

    Suburban leather seat cover set

    I've been looking at leatherseats.com. Seems to be legit, have some good videos, and also have ventilation kits available. Priced out for all 3 rows on my suburban with ventilation in the driver/passenger seat was around $3k. Completely customizable as far as colors and leather/vinyl quantity...

    Newer AT4 Wheels

    I've never been a huge fan of aftermarket wheels, but have always LOVED putting newer wheels on older vehicles. These are super sharp!
