    Rats... need a new part

    So I'm investigating a check engine light situation on my '93 K2500 5.7L and I found this under the air filter... damn rats! I've been looking around but can't find a name for this plastic part that the tubing slides in let alone if anyone sells it. Anyone know its name and if it might be sold...

    Yup, that's what mine was doing badly, finally had to do something when the rust showed up.

    Anyone here paint their truck flat OD green?

    The prep was fine, nothing is currently peeling as happened with the stock paint. It's about poor quality paint which is why I'm looking for something that will hold up better with UV resistance and general weathering characteristics. But yea it sucks, as did the stock paint for that matter.

    Anyone here paint their truck flat OD green?

    Here ya go, it's a mix of flat OD green and flat black, haven't washed it in probably 5 years, just keep the glass clean and hose the mud off when needed The green has faded over the years, hopefully the new paint will hold up better

    The Stupid Electronics Questions Thread

    I did some searches and didn't find any specifics on this question. In my 93 I want to swap out my non-tach instrument cluster for one with a tach. Based on the service manual it seems the connectors are the same, and my dash has a connection for the tach that my non-tach panel lacks. If I...

    Transmission RPO list

    Thankfully their report matched the list of codes in the truck. My unknown was XBK which per other lists is a tire code, no biggie

    Transmission RPO list

    After running into too many dead ends on the free look-up lists I went ahead and ran that compnine report, sure saved a lot of time, thanks. They only had one unknown code. But I haven't yet compared this report to my actual sticker, that comes next.

    Transmission RPO list

    Do you understand how to use this chart? I'm stumped. Here's a pict of my service parts ID label from the glove box of my 93 k2500, any assistance sorting this out is appreciated EDIT: figured it out :cool:

    Anyone else have different gray shades?

    Is there paint that exactly matches the dash or do you end up painting everything to get it to match? Can't say that difference would matter to me but I respect it matters to you. If/when you paint it please share the results.

    Anyone here paint their truck flat OD green?

    I'm looking to paint my truck flat Olive Drab, have come across some options online but wanted to ask if anyone has done it, what they used and how it's holding up. My truck actually is an OD green currently, the original blue paint was peeling badly and I needed to do something to stop the...

    If You Could Do It All Over Again...

    If I could do it all over again I'd buy a lot more stock in Apple and Microsoft :D But as for trucks, I'd never have gotten a b2000, what a gutless wonder. First and last mini truck, full size ever since. I'd care a lot less about form and more about function. Too much gets wasted on vanity...

    Noob from Sacramento

    Hi All, Glad to be here. I've got a 93 GMC K2500 extra cab short bed. Nothing special though a friend said it being a 6-lug is rarer, I have no idea how true that is, folks here know better than me. I bought it from a neighbor several years ago. I'm finally dealing with some deferred...
