Re: [MBZ] OT email list for 6.2L GM

I end up doing some work on my dad's 1/2 ton suburban (with 6.2)...

The sad part is how expensive some parts are (like the fan clutch...)

While not cheap, the clutches don't seem expensive by MBZ standards.
It might be fun figuring out which one you need though. Here are some listings

Maybe.

I'm learn'n.

Short term plans are:
  * install slow, no-swell glow plugs and a manual glow controller
  * wire brake controller and trailer electric socket
  * repair the dual battery system
  * transplant 3rd row seat mounts
  * replace headliner
  * wire radios, lights, 'phone, etc

Longer term ideas include:
  * find/build a sturdy and usable roof rack
  * install tachometer
  * install transmission cooler
  * add airbags to rear suspension
  * repair A/C

There are cables missing and the port side battery tray will
needs a hold-down clamp.  I also want to put a relay between the
two so when the engine is off only one battery will discharge.

[MBZ] OT email list for 6.2L GM

I found a couple web forums, but I really prefer email lists.  

And I'd sure like a list as good as this one - but for the GM

Yup.  In a 3/4 ton Suburban.  I got it cheap with a dead
transmission.  The replacement transmission is in and it seem to
be ready for inspection and license.

The 300TD just doesn't have enough room.
