    Aftermarket Latch for ext cab side windows?

    I have a 96 c1500 with bad wind noise from one side with all new hardware, except seal, but if you pull slightly it stops. I remember seeing some aftermark latches that had very slightly longer arms to create a stronger lock for this particular issue, but I can't find them anywhere now that I...

    My first foray into front suspension.

    My front tires are having cupping problems(I suspect wheel bearings), but I know the ball joints etc are also pretty aged/worn. I decided to go balls deep in this and make it a learning experience. Most of it seems pretty straight forward and ordered quite a few parts to get started. Parts I...

    Finding driver door panel on 96?

    I've had a hard time finding a decently priced Tan driver door panel for my truck. Could someone tell me what all models and vehicles I could search to find a match? Would 99+ panels fit and also look ok where the dash mates up? I'm even willing to try the '94 style panels, since those are...

    Rear Wheels out of alignment?

    I took my truck in to have all 4 tires swapped, but I noticed the old back ones had odd wear on the inside of the tires. It was like every other nub was worn vs the one beside it? So it felt bumpy when i ran my hand over it, because some of them were noticeably taller than the others. What would...

    Need to know Bed Sizes

    I own an extended cab and I THINK it has the same bed size as the shortbed single cabs, is this correct? Are there only Shortbed and Longbed? or does Extended cab have it's own bed size? If it is shortbed, would I be able to throw on a stepside from any GMT400 easily?

    Cruise control acting oddly.

    It works for the most part, but it will randomly lose speed. For instance, I will have it set at 75mph on the highway and it will suddenly drop itself down to 63-65 and stays there. The only way to fix it seems to be to turn it off wait about 5 seconds and set it again. What could be causing...

    95-98 LH Door Panels, can't find them.

    Anyone know a good place to find these? I need a tan driver side(power windows) and couldn't find them on Ebay, LMC doesn't have them, JCWhit doesn't have them, none of my local junkyards have them. There are passenger door panels for days, and loads of 99+ ones, but no driver sides for my...

    Bed out of line, mounts or bent frame?

    My new truck's bed('96 Ext Cab) is way out of line with the cab. I am hoping it is mounts or it is somehow fixable, but I fear it may be frame problems from excess loads being placed in it. At the top of the bed, it's about 5/8" away from the cab, at the bottom of the bed, the gap is about 1...

    Want to find a stockish head unit

    I want to replace my head unit with an aftermarket unit, but I don't want the modern look of them. Is there any decent head units out that kind of blend in like the OEM ones? I want it to look like it's made for the truck, rather than stick out like a sore thumb.

    New member with '96 C1500 Extended Cab Silverado

    Just bought this as an extra driver that will also cure my itch for a project truck. She is beat up and old, but that's ok. I'll make it better. As a matter of fact, I am getting her close to 400k miles with the original motor and, allegedly, the original transmission. I feel like I should mark...
