    1989 Silverado Interior Color Code?

    Got the light oak color in and it is definitely not it either. I might just pick a color and repaint all the pieces to match.

    1989 Silverado Interior Color Code?

    I purchased the Duplicolor " Desert Sand" interior paint today and it too is not the color. Awaiting the light oak from Summit next week. If it doesn't match then i will choose the closet to the original color and paint the other dash pieces the same to match.

    1989 Silverado Interior Color Code?

    Thanks everyone for you help. Using "xXxPARAGONxXx" information concerning RPO code 69I I found the color to be called LT OAK/VERY DK PEWTER which would be the two different colors used for the dash. Going from there I found some paint at Summit called Light Oak that from the picture looks...

    1989 Silverado Interior Color Code?

    Hello everyone. I have a 1989 Chevrolet Silverado. I am trying to find the interior color code of my truck and have been told the number is on the Service Tag in the glovebox. The color I'm trying to match is the center section of the dash, particularly the piece that has the ac vents and where...

    Blower fan speed problem

    I too am having some strange issues with my A/C blower system. Got in today and drove into town and back with no issues. AC blew fine at different speeds. Came back out 30 minutes later and had now blower motor speed control. Hooked up 12v and ground to blower and is turned on no problem. Blows...

    88-94 Split bench swap to buckets and console?

    I believe the front seats would be able to swap OK. Not sure on the back. Does your rear seat fold up? If so then they should swap. I know some of the older years didn't fold up and those would need the mounts that go in the cab sides.

    ZQ8 sports suspension option steering box vs. Standard option

    I thought the same too about the standard gearbox being adequate but since I can get the ZQ8 steering box for about half the cost of the standard OE steering box I thought I'd get some input. I did notice the improvement on my 94 truck when I swapped it out but again it might just be because it...

    Staggered but leveled on 17s ?

    So looking at some tires and the specs at TireRack.com it doesn't show much difference in diameter between the two sizes. 255/50/17 and 275/50/17 wasn't available so I looked up 255/40/17 and 275/40/17 in BF Goodrich and it shows a .6" diameter difference between the two sizes. Pretty negligible...

    ZQ8 sports suspension option steering box vs. Standard option

    Getting ready to redo the front suspension on my 99 Suburban with all new Moog parts. Also looking to upgrade the steering. To do so I'm thinking of replacing the stock steering box with the ZQ8 sports suspension option steering box. I believe they are a direct bolt up replacement. Has any one...

    Project Green Goblin

    Though I'd give the truck an identity and pay homage to Chevrolet's past at the same time.

    Project Green Goblin

    Well I finally got some time last week and got the rest of the truck in primer/surfacer. Now the fun begins with blocking the truck out to ready it for paint. Decided to keep the chrome grille for now and got an alarm installed. What a difference the truck looks now compared to the day I bought it.

    88-94 Split bench swap to buckets and console?

    I swapped in a front and rear seats from a 1998 Extended cab into my 94 Extended cab. The outer bolts were fine. Inner bolts had to be redrilled. Back seat was a direct fit. Even was able to upgrade to power seats out of the swap. Before and after pictures attached.

    Overhead Console Blanks

    I need the dark color so #2 looks like a winner.

    The Overhead Console Thread

    OK I've read through all 23 pages of this post and either I'm just being thick and not understanding or it isn't clear. To hook up the map lights to work with the clicker lights, not the regular dome light, I just need to hook the orange wire from the console to the the wire for the clicker...

    Overhead Console Blanks

    Still available? Not sure of the color I need. I'll have to compare to my console tonight if they are still available.

    Project Green Goblin

    Its been a few weeks since I got the bed primed and mounted. We had two days of good weather last week so I took the opportunity to get the cab primed. Also picked up a new front left fender to replace the damaged one. Hope to get the front clip done soon. May even do them separately since I...

    High mileage

    I have ~369,000 on my daily driver. Original 4.3l motor and transmission replaced @~320,00. I put about 55 miles on it a day to work and back. Still get between 18-20 mpg per tank.

    Project Green Goblin

    Over the last weekend I got the new bed mounted and everything reconnected. I think it looks pretty good but needs to be blocked out. Also need to start now on the cab. No dents anywhere on the doors or cab so it should go pretty quick. The fenders will need a little more work. Probably going to...

    Project Green Goblin

    Got the old bed off yesterday and today I installed a hidden hitch to work with roll pan on the other bed, installed a new fuel pump (thought I might as well while it is readily available to get at), and got the rear of the cab primed. As soon as I get some friends together I'll install the new...

    Project Green Goblin

    Started into the body work. To make things a little easier I got another bed that was a lot straighter. Molded in the roll pan and reversed the tailgate latch. Next is to start blocking it out to get it as straight as possible and swap over to the truck. When I do the swap I plan to prime the...

    Thank you very much for the confirmation.

    Extended Cab Rear Seat Mount

    Does the 1998 extended cab rear bench seat mount the same way as the 1994 extended cab rear seat? Basically are they interchangeable? I have a 1998 front seat and would like to get a matching rear for my 1994 extended cab. Thanks-
