Finally got my parking brake working again. No thanks to @MadDogDelpho for posting about his not working. I had to go try mine and snap no more cable LMAO. So since his post I've been without one. Not as hard as I thought.

2004 Z71 Suburban Green I have a few upgrades done.

Ok I am not getting anything on their site. Any part numbers possibly so I can find them? Thank you brother!

Just go to Amazon and search for rear bump stops for a 2004 Suburban. I found them in a couple seconds. Rock Auto doesn’t list them for some reason.

Engine cover looks much better. If you decide to redo it just bring it inside. Just the one bolt and it comes off. Any mess ups I just went over with a sharpie.

As far as the lights I learned the hard way you can’t tape off the areas while using the oven cleaner. Tape will soak up the cleaner and bleed through. My next thought would be to plastidip the area you want to keep chrome then spray the oven cleaner then peel the dip. But after all that work you might as well just sand by hand and use adhesion promoter like mark said lol.

My .02 cents


Thanks yea I have removed the engine cover many times lol.

I didnt think of the plastidip idea but I'll probably strip and paint the reflector and get the Profile Hi-Lens for the high beam spot with a shroud

Removed the rear KYB excels and installed Monroe Load Adjust shocks #58639. Rraised the rear 1.5". They are the same length as the KYB's but compress less because of the coil springs. I prefer the stance. So far I like the dampening they provide. I'll update as I drive more.

Did the KYB's get soft on you?

One of the bottom metal sleeves inside the bushing was rattling against the bolt. The KYB's are softer but that's why I went with them. Helps with certain bumps and other ones not so much.
