2000 K2500 CCSB

Not yet. Trying to find some bed access nfab bars, might have to cut down a set for a CCLB. I did replace the non-AC clutch fan, get the winch installed, and start to put on the topkick handles though...

2000 K2500 CCSB

The Hellas are great for rural roads at night but they can't be run all the time and the existing low beams on this truck were beyond awful, so an upgrade was needed. Low beams: GTR 4300k HIDs/NHK Fast Bright 55w Ballasts High beams: XenonDepot Xtreme 2800k LEDs Hardwired 4-Hi mod with two...

2000 K2500 CCSB

Didn't grab any pics of the module during install, but here is the link for the one I got. I tore down both mirrors earlier this week, installed the Morimoto reverse lights, and ran a separate wire for the signals in the glass. Everything now works as it should. Today I installed 75w...

The Overhead Console Thread

Are you planning on adding the 5 switch panel to the website? I'm needing one for the CCSB and yours looks like a much better product than the current ebay offerings.

2000 K2500 CCSB

Yesterday after work decided to start wiring the mirror lights. Curt 58240 3 to 2 wire tail light converter significantly simplified the wiring vs the old method with diodes and resistors. Signals get spliced in exactly as you'd expect but the brake input is tied to parking lights. All of the...

There's multiple shades, but this angle definitely exaggerates the difference. Driver side front door has been replaced (hence the GMC1500 emblem) and the bed has been repainted.

285/75/R16 E range BFG ATs, tow mirrors, and a full set of the correct GMT400 center caps. (not pictured) Kenwood components in the front doors and Escalade front door panels.

Vortec 350/4L80e/NP243, 285k miles. Trans shifts beautifully and after a new O2 sensor it runs great.

2000 K2500 CCSB

As per usual... Too good of a deal to pass up, 4x4, small block. A bit less usual is that this one didn't need to be trailered home. Slapped on the old Smittybilt and two Hella 4000s. Gave it a quick wash, didn't bother with the running boards since they're coming off anyway. More coming soon...

2006 Escalade ESV 2500 Platinum Build

I've abandoned the fruitless search for a reasonably priced 4L80e/NP246 combo from behind an LQ4, and instead have decided to use the known good 80e from the 97 Suburban and a much more common locally available 27 spline NP246. TransGo HD2, 4L80e flexplate and crank spacer showed up today. I...

Build a hypothetical 3500HD.

It's worth noting that the 05-16 10 lug 450/550 used a Dana S110 in the rear. The 99-04 450/550 and 08-10 F450 pickup used a Dana 80 with a large 8 lug pattern. 17+ uses a 10 lug Dana M300. I was looking into it a while back and failed to find any 99+ Ford configuration that came with a 10 lug...

2006 Escalade ESV 2500 Platinum Build

Still tons of work to do, but it's back together well enough to roll it around. Had two spare 285/70R17 BFGs to throw on the H2 Special Edition wheels, so I mounted those.

Build a hypothetical 3500HD.

I've serviced a lot of the 05+ Super Duty trucks over the past few years, many of which were beat to death in the oil fields before going to auction. Cab mounts are a major issue on those trucks and I've done a handful of TREs, but I've yet to see any major wear or failures on the radius arms or...
