    New Interior Door Handle Bezels

    That design is for the trucks that had the somewhat unusual combination of manual windows but power locks. As you already know on your truck with power windows and power locks, those switches are together on the trim panel ahead of the armrest. Richard

    Fuel pump

    Yes, because it matters - year, model, engine, etc. any relevant info so we don't have to guess. The TBI tanks have a baffle tray that sometimes can come loose as it's just held to the tank floor with push nuts onto studs, sometimes rust they away. Early Vortec truck tanks - 96 and some 97 -...

    3500 cab swap

    Enough differences in the 89 and 93 harness even if same engine.. that he'll be doing some hacking either way. I'd try to swap the block on the harness where it attaches to the firewall, if possible; as I said I haven't done it that way yet. So far my swaps have involved year models that were...

    3500 cab swap

    Welcome, The 89 and 93 cabs are extremely similar except for a few details. As you already wondered, you'll need to cut the holes for the shifters. Easy enough to make a template from your existing cab. Slightly trickier will be the hole on the passenger side of the firewall where the wiring...

    Headliner

    Trim panel for the area above the rear window on the extended cab is very different so it may be possible the headliner board shape isn't quite right for fitting a regular cab or crew cab. Regular and crew cab share a shallower trim panel. Richard

    Best 8 inch wheel trim rings

    No idea on the part #. You're talking seriously obsolete parts by now anyway, the only market I'm aware of would be the used market. Hit up a boneyard, FB marketplace, craigslist.. again, in this particular style there's only one choice in 15", and one in 16". They look the same other than...

    Power window nose diving

    There's a couple 10mm-head bolts that hold the front window channel in. It's real easy to forget the bolts when re-assembling, and it will cause the window to fall forward. I've also seen it mangle the window regulator scissor assembly if it doesn't get corrected. Richard

    VIN Decoder

    The Philcos probably always stayed in the "danger zone" ... ;) Richard

    VIN Decoder

    I mean.. GM did make 'em.. Half a life ago (or longer actually) I rented a house that had an old Frigidaire in it. Still worked great, other than it was pre-"frost free" era so you had to mine the ice out of the freezer every now and then. Cool old emblems those fridiges had. Many variations...

    1992 Factory CD Player

    Pretty cool options! I've seen a lot of these trucks and have never seen this setup in any of them. Closest I've had in "old school" changers was when I bought my '92 in.. '99? It had a Sony 6 disc changer under the driver's seat. It was old and full of dog hair, but once cleaned up, it...

    1994 C1500 4L60E no shift and no speedo

    The tricky thing about reconfiguring the two bank DRAC is the settings are inverse of each other, if that makes sense. Take a look at the one I pictured with the case open - and imagine the jumper postions like this: 7654321 1234567 So in the example pic, FIRST bank - 7,6,5,4,3 are "on" and...

    Can anyone help me identify this truck?

    Y'all quit entertaining the A.I. ;) Richard

    1994 C1500 4L60E no shift and no speedo

    Haven't looked that deeply into it but that one wire might be for other (non-GMT400) applications; my 1994 had cruise and so did the 1994 I have the spare dash from sitting in my garage (the one I just took the pic of the DRAC from a few minutes ago) - no second single-wire connector in that...

    Best 8 inch wheel trim rings

    Those are the regular trim rings that came on the 15" GMT400 steel wheels. They only made two sizes - 15" and 16" - and only one width. Richard

    1994 C1500 4L60E no shift and no speedo

    A 1994 GMT400 doesn't use that other connector. I just looked through a bunch of pics from my (now sold) 1994 and it's a little hard to tell from most of the angles, but I don't see it - in this pic I'd cut a small hole in the glovebox compartment and poked the wires through so I can have the...
