Thinking about changing things up. I think I might pull the curved lightbar and put a straight bar up on the roof rack, then put cab lights up top. Then I can replace the door seals and it should be a little quieter and, even better, won't leak!!!

Yeah I'm pretty sure. And today all the sudden after I put it back in 2wd and get two miles down the road all the sudden I was slowing down and went to get back in the throttle and the rpms went up but no drive like I was in neutral. Pulled over was gonna cut the truck off and decided to put it in auto and I hear this loud noise and then put it back in 2wd and had gears again. Crazy and it drove fine after that. Weird. The mirror thing is just annoying.

It sounds like your encoder ring is going out. Then again, the TC motor has a lock so that it cannot shift out of the drive mode but... that's what it's doing. I wonder if oil is leaking past the gasket & corrupting various parts of the motor. Have you pulled the TC encoder motor off yet? I would be doing that ASAP

1 day it's gonna fu{k around & shift itself into 4-LO (doing 40mph) instead of Neutral, then what?

This is where I went to school and also where I get my supplies. Their big thing with the paints and dyes are they're water soluble. How big is the tear and where is it located?
Here's a Yukon/Tahoe that I've done. This tear is super common with these. Just from sliding in and out.View attachment 182271

Wish I could repair this! Prob be easier to just replace the whole damn seat. That's my intention anyway. I need steps, bad. IMG_2527.JPG

On a brighter note, found a kickA$$ deal on Craig's: case of 5w-30 2dexos full-syn for $30!! 12 F'n quarts. 1-years worth of top-shelf oil changes.

I hate to be like this but what does tc mean? Traction control? And where would it be located for me to even look at it. Sorry I'm mechanically inclined but this is my first Chevy v8. Thanks for the help
