    SAS'd 90 Silverado (the Long Story)

    Well my story starts with my 91 Silverado 2500, that I bought without a box and put some time and money into. But I'll start with the new truck, and end it with the story of how this all came to be, that way the goods are shown off the bat rather than a big story :P And on to the good stuff...

    Battery Dieing

    Well I've had an ongoing issue with this truck (91 Silverado) that no one has been able to solve. I have no driver side rear brake light (and now blinker). I have a driving light, and had a blinker, then the blinker started doing weird things like it would blink once then miss 3, or just miss...

    TBI Injector replacement

    Well my 91 K2500 has been misifiring since I got it on the road 3 months ago. I did plugs, wires, cap, rotor and that didn't fix it. So I checked the timing and it was retarded 4 degrees, so I set it back to 0. That fixed the misfiring, but it still seemed down on power. I went on a 800 mile...

    Cab Corners

    Wish I had time this year, but it probably will not be until next year that I can do this. But I need rockers and cab corners, but I would like to remove the inner part of the cab corner as well. It seems decently solid, but after 1 more winter, I would rather just do the inner and outer cab...

    TBI 350 Misfiring

    My 91 2500 has had a misfiring issue for a bit. So I changed out the Plugs, Cap, Rotor, EGR Valve, and Fuel Filter. Hoping one of those would get it, also just doing a bit of maintenance as it has 284k on it. But none of those things solved it, so I checked the timing and it was retarded by...

    After basic tuneup still misfiring.

    So the truck has been having some issues misfiring under moderate load the the beginning of the gears. I replaced the cap/rotor/plugs and it helped slightly. Next I plugged the egr line running to the TB (after the electrical part) and it seemed to run very good. So I picked up an EGR valve...

    Drives Side Brake Light not working?

    Trucks been on the road for about 2 weeks and this was working fine, all new bulbs, both brand new circuit boards, and a cleaned ground. One day driving I hit the left blinker and it was beating really fast. So when I stopped at my friends I checked and the filiments aren't burnt out. We checked...

    Cranking: How To?

    I've tinkered with cars basically my whole life and finally have a truck to mess with to. Just got a 3" Body Lift and 35's on it. But it's apparent the front end is a good amount lower than the back and I am not a fan of the raked looked on the truck. I see a lot of talk about cranking, about...

    Some electrical issues

    Trying to get my truck back to good running order and got a few things left. 1. My windshield wipers don't work. I'm hearing the circuit board on the motor itself is maybe the first place to start? 2. My truck came with no box and no tail light wiring harness, all the wiring for the towing...

    Trying to decide on some 35x12.5x15 tires

    I live in Minnesota and this will be my winter truck. I been looking through a lot of reviews out there, I really like the Wrangler MT/R with Kevlar. But I'm a bit confused on the ratings, almost all of the tires I have looked at are great in snow, but Ice with a mud type tire doesn't get the...

    Box sits 1/2" too far to driver side

    Picked up my 91 Silverado 2500 last year without a box, so I got a box for it. Just finally got it on today and all the bolts in, and the thing sticks out about a half inch on the driver side, and of course a 1/2" in on the pass side. My dad ran his own Autobody shop for 25 years and said he...

    Footwell lights stay on

    Well my 91 Silverado 2500 is going to be on the road this week, this is one of the last loose ends I have to figure out. If the battery is connected, these just stay on, any ideas?

    Broken Hood latch

    Well my 91 Silverado was parked over winter, and the hood opened fine then. This year went to open it and pulling the cable sounds like it's doing something, but nothing happens. Tried putting pressure down on the front of the hood, tried lifting up some, neither worked. Looks like the hood is...

    POR 15 Frame

    Looking to coat my 91's frame when it gets a bit warmer out. Being a Minnesota truck with 280k on the body, the frame is scaled obviously. I have heard many good things about POR, and it seems to be the best for rusted surfaces, just clean off the scale and use POR. But I have also heard of...

    Tail Light Wiring Harness

    Not sure exactly all of what I need here as I can't find much info about this at all. But my 91 Silverado came without a box / tail lights. And I have a wiring harness that runs to the back and has a 4 prong male plug. So I'm assuming theres a wiring harness that runs from there to the lights...

    Replacing Box Carriage Nuts?

    Trying to figure out what to do here, the box I bought they had to cut 4 of the bolts to remove it. I managed to get a pipe wrench on the end of one and get it out, but the other 3 are too short for me to do this. So the idea so far is to drill out the nuts and retap them as 7/16th and put in...

    Tail light wiring harness

    Wondering if anyone has any pictures of this, when I bought my truck it had no box and no tail lights. Theres a wiring harness that goes to the back that has 4 plugs on it, then theres an adapter that I assume is from hauling a trailer (but the wires are as messy there after so not sure). It has...

    Box Bolts

    Bought my 91 Silverado 2500 just a while ago with no box on it, the truck has a 3" body lift, but I'm pretty sure some of the bolts for the box are missing. Will I need special bolts, or can I just go down to Fastenal, get some Grade 8's of the right length and bolt on my new box?

    Interior Lights Stuck on?

    This is on my 91 Silverado 2500, I'm getting it ready for winter, just got it a few weeks ago and hunting down all issues and solving them. First on the list is this, I don't see the dome light on, but that could easily be a bulb out, but the interior lights under the dash stay on 24/7, it...

    My new Winter wheels, 91 Silverado

    Well I just picked this up last week, it's a 91 with a 94 front end swap. It's got 280k on the body, and is in darn good shape for a 19 year old northern truck with that mileage. The motor and trans were rebuilt at 230k. I need to find a box for it before winter, but here it is as it sits right...
