Re: 86 Suburban daily driver

Yep, this one has always been a half ton.

Two steps forward, one step back. Rear window motors showed up, so I went to installing them. AC Delco, good old USA made parts...ah....nope - not anymore. First problem was that the stamped brackets bolt holes didn't line up very well. When "forced" into place, they put such a bind on the motor that they didn't work. The fix for that was to drill out the holes so they could be bolted together and not induce a bind. First one in, and amazed with how fast it goes up and down. I may not need to do the relay mod after all!

2nd door, everything was going really well until the duct tape I was using to hold up the glass let go, and it came down quick and broke the glass. Anyone know where to source factory dark tinted glass?
