    I’m a DA…what maintenance have you screwed up?

    Worked many years at a Toyota dealership. Had a late 80's Land Cruiser come in with a rotted oil pan. These guys had a big inline 6 and the pans were a PITA to remove. Managed to get it out, went to the parts counter and got the replacement pan, got it installed and proceeded to fill the...

    5.3 + manual swap

    How are you going to really enjoy/drive your truck? Be honest with yourself. If you NEED to be the baddest guy in the 'hood, then yeah go big or go home as they say. But if you just want a nice reliable driver that'll make you smile when you step on the pedal, either the 4.8 or 5.3 will do just...

    You're quite welcome. Glad you got it sorted. When I was in the trade, the hardest problems to diagnose were the easiest ones to fix

    Reading this posting is more fun than being in a movie theater, sitting in front of a kid with a crinkly cellophane bag of candy. Bring on the popcorn!!:popcorn::popcorn::popcorn:

    Stering column broken

    I would use a column from '94 and back. Starting in '95 GM started to do weird things with the steering columns. Guessing you have a stick trans? You won't need the NSS that's mounted on the column, as the clutch pedal has a safety switch, and the trans has the reverse light switch. The newer...

    This may be way out in left field, but how much play is in the output shaft of the transmission?

    Tape Deck Delete

    I was in the same boat as you guys when I got my truck. The player didn't work and the PO's hacked off the wires and left the unit laying in the hole. What I did was epoxy a piece of textured ABS panel into the vent panel. If you have a U-pull it yard, look for late 90's early 2000's Full size...

    89 silverado gauge swap altenator not charging

    When you spliced in the "new" cluster plug into the "old" harness, did you join the three "new" hot wires to your "old" harness? You may have a bad connection at your splice point. The three points of reference on the "new" plug being pins F, O, and U. The one pin on the "old" connector being...
