Looking to do something for Father’s Day coming up and an idea I had was detailing or getting pop’s 92 detailed in and out. It’s just a working farm truck, but has a pretty rare paint job that’s still mostly all there. I’ve been looking at threads but wanted to get some opinions specifically on...
Hey guys, messing around with some upgrades and maintenance lately and remembered my cargo light doesn't work. It used to be toenail-yellow so I color matched a junk yard lens white because it didn't work anyways. The paint is chipping now and I'd like to try to utilize the light again. I would...
1993 K1500 5.7
Hey guys, looking for a little direction here, as I haven’t been able to find anything with my combination of issues.
Last summer ‘21 my transmission overheated pulling a buddies big pontoon. Pulled over and let it cool, topped it off, ran fine again for a long time until now...
Feel like I’ve been done a pretty great job over the years about keeping my ‘93 dash in the garage, using a sunshade, and keeping it sprayed clean, but today I noticed about 4 hairline cracks that I’ve never seen before in it. I’ve read about the 95+ LMC reinforcement mounts, but does anyone...
1992 K1500 5.7 350
Having an issue with my dad’s truck. It seems to stumble, especially when cold, when shifted into gear from park. It gets up and runs and shifts fine, it’s only at idle. It has actually stalled out twice over the course of a almost a year with this issue. It’s a farm truck so...
Hey guys, just want to hear your thoughts and opinions on this. Four years ago I had a lifter issue on my ‘93 5.7 that kind of resolved itself and went away after switching to a heavier oil. Well now that I am daily driving it again the issue has crept back up. It’s begun to do it on long...
Pretty much same as the title. My ‘93 that’s been in the family since ‘94
and has been repainted in ‘13 and continually kept up since then. During this quarantine I’m getting picky and realized I want to finish the puzzle and get a “CHEVROLET” tailgate badge. Is LMC the best source for this or...
Hey guys, been a minute since I’ve posted, hope everyone is doing well and Covid-19 free.
It’s not that big of a deal but I believe the occurrence is starting to increase.
I’ve noticed lately, and I don’t get to drive my truck that much at this point, like maybe a few times a month, that my...
Hey guys, been awhile since I’ve posted but I still creep around every now and then.
1993 Silverado 5.7 350 with about 180K on the original motor. Truck has had the service engine light on for awhile now and I finally found the mind to look into it. I jumped A and B and got codes 32 and 43.
I...
I'll be short and frank. My '93 has been at our mechanic's shop getting a new torque converter, and was going to be done this week. I get home from work and my dad sets me down in the den and says "Son, ____ had a wreck in your truck today." You can imagine the preverbal glass shattering sound...
Hey guys got a couple of small things go out on me here recently. Hopefully nothing big just looking for some second or third opinions.
In the '92 the speedometer, trip, and odometer all went out randomly at the same time. Is there a gear that controls all three? I can find a cluster but would...
93 5.7 350. Made the trip from Huntsville to auburn this weekend (round trip = 414 miles) and at certain points like up a hill or on long straightaways my truck would do this and lose a good bit of power. Almost bogging down if you will. It would do for awhile then it would stop after low speeds...
I'll be taking my DD '93 ecsb to Auburn for the foreseeable future until I can either get another 400 to pound the miles on or a different vehicle completely. Auburn is about 3 1/2 to 4 hours from where I live all interstate and highway. About ~230 miles so around 450 round trips. What do you...
Both armrests in '93 ecsb bucket seats are stuck all the way down. Is there a gentle way or some special trick to get them up or possibly remove them? Or actually is it possible this was just an option and my truck didn't get it? I've been driving it for 3 years now but we've had it since 1994...
I have true dual no cats single chamber mufflers into 4in tips. About to be having to make four hour road trips for the next foreseeable future to college. Got a quote for going stock at $150 and for a flow master or something of that sort for $300-400. College boy here is ballin on a budget so...
Im having some possible ground issues: http://www.gmt400.com/threads/cluster-twitches-bad.34674/#post-908320
I was wondering, if such a thread exists, that if anyone could show me or set me a link on all ground locations for at least a 1993? I'm sure they vary year to year. I search for awhile...
My '93 cluster just started this today. It's kinda hard to explain so I'll try to put it in simple terms. On the interstate rolling around 70-75 I would turn the AC on and the rpms and speedo would go nuts. Speedo would twitch its way to 85+ and peg out, the rpms would read 2500-3500. I have...
My '93's door chime is stuck. It plays when the door is open and the key is removed. I've been having a ton of trouble with the key ignition getting stuck and hard to twist and junk like that. I know a circuit has been closed and will not open no matter how hard I jiggle it. Is there a temporary...
What part is this? Seems to be some kind of foam or filter behind it. Also how do I remove it? Not an AC guru so any help would be greatly appreciated. It's showing its age as the slightest pressure on it will cause the plastic to crack. Thanks guys.
Hey guys I'll be attending Auburn University this fall and looks like I'll be taking ole white girl down there with me for the first year or two. I live around Huntsville which is about 4 hours from Auburn all highway or interstate. Right now I'm running true dual no cats into 4x18" tips. I get...
The website is called www.leatherseats.com and I found this picture when I got bored in my precal class and got curious. They have hundreds of combinations for any kind of leather or vinyl seats for as early as '95 gmt400s. Course if you know what you're doing this also means 88-94 seats. Price...
1993 5.7 350 auto with 162K on stock motor and an unknown amount on 3rd transmission. Pretty far over 100K though. Maybe roughly 110-140K. Happened back in the mid 90s and pops can't remember the exact mileage.
Anyways, been having this problem for awhile but I'll to take this truck to college...

Absolutely immaculate. Never seen this color in its prime like it is. Price is steep but I can understand it, I wouldn't charge a dime less as clean as this thing is.
For anyone that is thinking about doing this, here is a video after I did the swap. Came from an early 90s Camaro. So much better than the buzz. Feels like I'm about to crank a 2010 now. Brown box is Camaro and black box is stock. Took me all of 30 seconds.
This paint job was done 3.5 years ago and was done the right way. Sanded to bare metal, the whole 9 yards. What I think happened was we put the heavy aluminum bed rails back on way too soon and the paint couldn't set in the summer heat. Where's it's currently flaking is where there was massive...
