Hey everyone.. heavy hitter post here..
got a 97 bravada with 104k.. Great car runs good
squeaky/scraping s ounds from under car no idea where or what really.. rear axle and/or passenger side can't really tell.. redid cv joints and front brakes 1.5/2 years ago (10k ago id guess)
Codes for purge valve leak.. replaced it... (also a while ago... ) codes back.. not sure why lines and everything seem fine havent 100% checked) unforu ately stripped manifold while investigating recently

starts hard every once in a while which i heard can be a side effect but does t seem to be drastic.
Also code for misfire cyl 1 which I think is random happened a time or 2 before....
Decent body hood dent on crease and busted front right fender a little bit... and scratchy paint but overall good...
Wanna make this my random sleeper I'm thinking...
Looked at lift kits ones 4" and up i was thinking 6 havent seen ma y for the gmc suv group just trucks maybe still similar...but all the transfer case stuff and it seems my car is heavy on the electric side is kinda scaring me.
Definitely want a V8 im a suckered for power and speed ya know coz its fun (i wish every car person Could see my great uncle talk about engines and going fast its worthy of a movie rebound/climax scene).
Any body work that will accommodate a lift and power and all that but id imagine it'll be pretty limited without going crazy custom since its not exactly a classic lol
Definitely don't have to but I really wa t to cuz cars are fun and I'm silly.
Def not a guru mexhanic but if I have examples/ a good idea I can get it done.. plus I've got car nuts for family Michigan GM OG'S. (Said great uncle was on the team for the car even) Only problem is no garage/good space to work.
Thanks for anything!
