    Rise of the Turd-burban

    For a well kept vehicle, it would be a number of pride. For a sucker like me that paid what I did, for one in this condition- it’s embarrassing I bought a well maintained 09 Silverado 2500 duramax with 416,000 miles. All original. I did head gaskets on it, cleaned it of some inefficient...

    What is this, and do I need it?

    What is this, and do I need it?

    Thanks for the replies! I haven’t seen an antenna nor any location where one may have been. I’ll look closer tomorrow. I haven’t inspected the roof rack closely… could’ve been mounted there. The bumper looked clean. The previous owners didn’t strike me as CB users, but ya can’t judge a book by...

    What is this, and do I need it?

    Hey all- I was doing some spring cleaning on the turd-burban and found this apparatus hiding behind the floor console. One of the cables goes under the carpet. 1- What it be? 2- Do I need it? 3- Where does the time go? And also that cable (any idea?) Thank you for any input or advice, good...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    Captains log, entry 0ICU812 Took a trip to LKQ today, in search of some plastic bits and a few unicorns (dash top in sweet condition, un-bent front bumper, the ever elusive un-tattered drivers seat). I realized a couple things- these shorts, plus sweat, and my underwear riding up made for a...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    Round four Maybe there is something in the wiring… And there was- A LOT! I removed an alarm system (old Hornet) with windows controller, an XM box that was probably really cool at one point, an air horn, a hands free apparatus, some junk speaker wires, etc. And to my surprise, it still...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    Round 2 1/2 (backed up a little) Just wanted to put up a pic of my trans cooler set up. Honestly, it’s probably over kill and will have a negative affect in the winter. Behind that one beautiful grill is two 1405 trans saver coolers, in series. “Whoa, Nooj- save some trans cooling for the rest...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    Round three Probably something in the wiring… So I inspect and double check all trans connections. I was fiddling with the round connector when all of a sudden it hit me. Right in the face- a small stream of water. Was it in the plug? Heck if I know, but I checked the solenoid functions with a...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    Round two This turd came with a spare trans which, by appearance, gave me no more confidence than the one already installed. So I opted to buy a rebuilt 4L60 and put it in myself. I mean, I installed it, I didn’t put it… never mind. What a pain in the **** ordeal that is- exacerbated even more...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    Greetings all. I hope you’ll forgive me for bringing the long roof to your Tahoe and Yukon party- but I’ve found good help on this forum, so I thought I’d share my story of woe. Not that it’s gonna be a big help to anyone, unless you consider it a warning of what not to do. Round one- I...
