Unknown Bracket from 2002 Avalanche 5.3 Vortec.. Where does it go??
Hi Guys, This isn't really a gmt400 question, but I had the engine in my 2002 avalanche rebuilt and I'm in the process of reinstalling it. And go figure, one of the parts I didn't label I don't know where it goes.... It's this L shaped bracket. Attached are some pictures of it. Anyone know...- Perry_Fager

For this I'm using all GM OEM switches and hardware. The triple blank was HARD to find, but it finally turned up on eBay the part number is...- Perry_Fager

So next project is my favorite: electrical!! I love wiring up things. I got some cheap Chinese 7" LED light bars to fill the holes in the bumper where someone else had installed lights in the past. I haven't started on the wiring yet as I'm waiting on parts still. I'm going to rework the air...- Perry_Fager

I've been having trouble with the play in the steering wheel also. I replaced the steering gear again its a bit better but still has some play in it. I really hate sloppy steering..... not 100% on what to about it at this point.- Perry_Fager

I also added a modern 7 way trailer plug. The truck was pre-wired for most of it and came with a trailer brake controller. I spliced in the modern GM whip and got a nice plug that has the 4 way on the side for smaller trailers. I welded the bracket onto the receiver bar as a mounting point as...- Perry_Fager

The receiver bar was cracked pretty bad also. Not the best welding in the world, but it's holding.- Perry_Fager

Also, before we left to Washington I installed an ARB Air Compressor. I've got the larger one in my Avalance, it's a bit big so I got the smaller one for Clifford. Also, I more sand beach jet ski launching in my Avalanche so I have to air down more in that truck hence the larger one in there...- Perry_Fager

So the trip went well, I didn't get all the play out of the steering before we left so 2,200 miles of lots of steering input to keep Clifford straight was a bit rough. While we were up there the main wiring harness melted on the EGR hose and shorted out a bunch of electrical necessities. Took a...- Perry_Fager

I also replaced the headlights with the Chinese $60 kit from eBay also. They are junk.. you can't adjust them properly. I'm going to replace them with Chevy ones before my next road trip. So I got Clifford all fixed up and drove to White Salmon, Washington State to spend a week with a friend of...- Perry_Fager

While I was dong that I figured I'd replace the mirrors with something that was, let's say, a bit more useful. I got the $100 Chinese towing mirrors from eBay. They aren't as bad as I thought. Before: After Much bigger ears!- Perry_Fager

Hello GMT400! I've been reading your forum for a while now and figured I'd share my truck with you as well. About a month ago or so I a deal on this pretty good 96' K3500 Quad Cab 454 long bed truck. I've always wanted one of these since I move to the states in 99'. What an amazing truck this...- Perry_Fager
