Tom Wood's Heavy Duty Driveshafts
|
Tom Wood has been making custom driveshafts for some years now, and is well established in the four-wheel-drive market. He sponsors a number of Calrocs and NARCCA competitors, and many of his shaft have withstood the ultimate tests of off-road abuse. |
Jeg's Engine Storage Stand
|
We found ourselves short on time, but in need of an engine stand. Enter the Jegster line of engine storage stands. We picked up a low profile one rated for a big block chevy knowing that one weighs nearly the same as a 6.2L or 6.5L diesel. Let's see how it did. |
LMC Polyvinyl Rear Mat
|
Not every suburban is a two-wheel-drive wonder that totes children and moms to soccer practices around the world. There are few out there that actually use the cargo space for hauling things heavier than groceries. Follow along as we install heavy duty rear flooring for our blue project suburban. |
Choked to Death
|
Stock exhaust systems are rarely tuned for performance, and our 96 6.5TD suburban is no exception. We install Kennedy Diesel's 3.5" exhaust solution. |
More Power for the 6.2L
|
With about 20,000 miles on our newly rebuilt 6.2L, we had enjoyed more than enough low-powered naturally aspirated miles. We were ready for forced induction. Follow along as we show what it takes to install an MHI TE06H turbo with Banks hardware. |
Poison Spider Custom Shock Tabs
|
It's doesn't take more once or twice of hanging up on the rear shock mounts to get a little frustrated. We had bent the rear mounts more than once, and so it was past time to replace and upgrade. Many times those two are the same thing. Poison Spider Customs sells some heavy duty shock tabs for cheap, and they're just the ticket when you're on a budget. |
Hayden Severe-Duty Fan Clutch
|
After building an engine that was ready to make big power and tow bigger loads, it was time to address one last detail in the cooling system. Heath Diesel provides us with one very important and often overlooked piece of the performance puzzle. |
6" Tuff Country Rear Lift Springs
|
The big blue suburban finally gets rid of its old blocks and stock springs. Take a look and see just how easy it is to get rid of your old 52" half-ton springs and upgrade to 56" heavy duty springs. |
