Re: finally come

Safety Chains go over the receiver in front of the hitch then hook onto the eyelets. This way if the hitch comes undone it doesn't dive into the ground.
You'll have to paint the same colors as the Burb. Your not looking for hard to find NOS pieces for the trailer are you?

Re: finally come
 

well its lisa's project, with me being silent(yeah right) ima just restore/repair items to working condition, the interior will get a full redo. its gonna be same color as the burb, but shiny aluminimum on top and same body color stripe as the burb with white on the bottom. thanks on the chain location i wasnt sure which was best, glad it didnt come apart. any other tips we should know, or better yet come by and walk us through. we'll cook!!!

Pimpston
How is your armrest holding up after painting it? My paint is all cracking on mine, so now I have to figure out how to either re-do it, or strip it.
I cleaned it real good, and prepped it, but it didn't hold. Hope you had better luck.

Re: finally come
 

mine is in perfect condition!!! but its in a box uninstalled. that sucks for both of us!!!

Here is my armrest now, and the paint I used on it.

Re: finally come
 

i used the same paint, im gonna look for a better paint!!!

Re: finally come
 

They make a product that it is a plastic adhesive helper. I used it for painting all the hard plastic parts in my cab and it helps the paint to bond to the material better.

Re: finally come
 

I will look into that. I'm thinking the flex from resting my arm on it, and pulling on it had something to do with it as well.

Re: finally come
 

just mess'n around. it "kinda" fits ima need to do some mods to make it NOT come off on the road!!!

Re: finally come
 

I like it! Gonna look good together.
Now to incorporate Suburban tail lights on the trailer!

Re: finally come

Re: finally come
 

Somewhere in my stuff I have lenses and bezels but not the sockets. Their yours if I come across them.

Re: finally come

Yes the house should be the first inline. Fun new skills. Nothing like learning something new, and doing it correctly. Enjoy--------------
