Spent the day getting all the seats and console holes drilled so I could get the carpet in. After all that, I realized the carpet I got was for a low hump, not the high hump that I ordered. I called the place I got it from and they are supposed to order carpet again Monday and they said it may be in this weekend. I did get my slosh tubs pedal cover polished and installed. ![]() |

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
Just sat down and went through the entire build. You are doing a hell of a job and your Burb is absolutely beautiful.

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
once again nice build. I was just wondering how and where you mounted the elevel sensors. Also what aluminum dash bezel is that. I thinking of switching my autometer gauges to the vhx. If you can post pics that would be great.

![]() The aluminum dash I got from someone locally but I believe its the same one LMC and the other companies sell. Got some more parts ordered. I should be home for a while in a week or two to get some work done. |

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
I think I can make this kit work http://www.oldairproducts.com/catalo...it-p-4509.html
When I get back, Old Air isn't too far from me, I may take the cover up there and see if they have a demo unit that I can look and see if it will work. |

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
Spent the better part of the day working on getting the brakes put on. I only got one side done. I ordered the spindles for a 72 and apparently I had 63-70 ball joints. I had to pull the lower A arm to swap out the ball joint which meant I had to take the header loose to get the mount A arm bolt out. Im hoping to get the other side done tomorrow.
While the truck is on jack stands, I still have a lot to the under side so before I take it off jack stands, im going to try and finish that all up too. ![]() |

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
What color carpet did you use with the parchment seats? It looks good.

Might be a cool idea, maybe make it just a little larger to make an aftermarket evaporator fit in it, could add a rear dome light and speakers...hum Know anyone that can do it? Thanks, I bought carpet for just the passenger area and it came in two pieces and I also ordered the matching floor mats. I really like the carpet!!! |
