We picked up a tow vehicle on Saturday, its a 96 3/4 ton suburban with 184,000 miles, 454, 4x4, with tranny cooler and tow package. We basically stole this from the guy that was selling it, but it has a few issues. Issue one is the gear selector is broke, it shifts out of park, but then you have to move the rods under the steering wheel to select the gear you want. Is there an easy fix for this? Issue two is the brake booster is leaking, is it cheaper to just replace it or have someone look at it?
We plan on using it to tow for the next two years or so, then it might just become the next truggy, yes indeed Carwash it will be just as ugly as the original.
Here are a couple of pics.
