I LIKE those! Now if there was only a 5-spoke version...

Thank ya!

Technically, there is a 5-spoke version. The Chevrolet cladded wheels have 5 spokes. Their big pain is the center part where the lugs are is a big open cavity so making a center cap isn't so easy. But, I think I saw where people were using center caps from another Chevy wheel and it was a direct fit or just fairly easy to make it fit.

*EDIT*

Here's a pic of the Chevy wheel de-cladded and it has the center cap from the 17" NBS truck wheel:

Nice but what’s with the passenger headlight?


Have to talk to the previous owner.

I'm looking at new headlights now ... May go OEM .. or I do like the aftermarket but concerned with quality, durability. And then, black or chrome??

Oh, and did an oil change too .. was running AutoRX for a few cycles. Bought a dozen filters, two bites of AutoRX and have been doing shortened oil change intervals.

Almost looks like a Mustang Cobra rim.

I have been chasing a recurring CEL for catalyst deficiency on the Suburban; P0430. I figured I would try a $20 O2 sensor before I dropped big money on a converter. Turns out the offending sensor (B2S2) was hand tight, likely had something to do with it.

The whole job was done in 5 minutes, we will see if the CEL comes back after a few drive cycles. The scanner still shows a permanent code stored, but I haven’t driven it yet to fully cycle it.

I got my DRLs fixed and changed out my rear diff fluid. Used 75w-140 Lucas full synthetic and a new Fel-Pro gasket. Its a much bigger pain to change the axle fluid on these trucks than it is on my old S10 on the S10 you’re only fighting a sway bar, on these you’ve got the panhard bar and the sway bar in your way- and the spare tire. Oh well. Goter done. Pic attached is the newly functional DRLs.

Do your DRLs seem to go out often? Just curious as mine always seemed to. I just stopped putting them in. I always see our gen Tahoe's and Avalanches with one or both DRLs out.
