Re: slamburban

let me know if jim carter still sell the rear valance. if not i can ask the guy that makes them. he sells them for a bit little more money. but they are just as nice. the only thing is. they do come with bracket just like the original, but are they are made of fiberglass also. the valance isnt drlled for them. but i didnt use the brackets anyway.i really like the smooth look. so i just screwed it into the body with self tapping screws.

Re: slamburban

i finally took the maiden voyage in suburban. i took my wife and son for about a 2 hour drive around town and it ran perfect. the only problem i had so far is one of my headlights went out, but the halo lights worked fine.

Isn't that a great feeling driving it for the first time... all those long hours and hard work seems to fade away after a few miles...
good job...

I agree, the first ten to fifteen minutes you keep listening for something to go wrong. Then you settle in for lots of smiletime....Jim
