    98-00 Vortec and LS1 Computer Swap Custom Tuning

    Sorry I missed your question. I have not been on here in a while. I have been on the swap page more. Sorry, no i do not have ecm's or a way to program them. There are many people that can do this. Me personally, not only did i get the wiring pinouts from Lextech but i contacted him to set up and...

    best bang for the buck 4x6's any recomendations

    I would have to agree with some of the other guys. just put something in it that sounds better than what you have but dont go over board. On the other side for those looking for suggestions, I had an 88 at one time and it took 4x6's in all for corners. I installed a Pioneer plate in the front...

    Rear 4x10 speakers in Suburbans, etc . . .

    I actually did modify the brackets in my 97 Sub. a while back and installed a set of Pioneer 6x9's. The speakers are definitely heavy but the brackets hold just fine. The covered grilles hang a little lower and there is just a little gap on the sides of the grilles and the headliner but not...

    Amazon ECCPP Tow Mirror Question

    I was just looking at that brand on Amazon for my 2004 Suburban. The reviews were not very good. It looked like the ones sold by Yitamotor are better quality and better reviews. They may have them with black caps and also for our GMT400 trucks as well. I just have not checked yet.

    2014 bumper conversion

    Sorry this isn't going to help much. I saw a FB marketplace post about a guy selling a later 90's Suburban with a rear step bumper off a 2015-16 Silverado. It looked good. Tried contacting the seller multiple times about the install on the bumper but would not respond. It really did look good...

    Whine When Radio On

    I've run into this on many of our fleet vehicles with the Vortecs. Weather it was the 5.7's in the full size trucks or even the 4.3's in the s- series trucks. We found that it would happen more when broadcasting over our hand held communication radios. What we found was that when we could here...

    98-00 Vortec and LS1 Computer Swap Custom Tuning

    There are different variations. If you do the 0411 ecm swap, then you are most of the way there as far as the harness. When swapping to the LS its a matter of adding a few wires and changing some pigtails. I have not done the swap yet but researching as much as I can before I proceed. Found a...

    98-00 Vortec and LS1 Computer Swap Custom Tuning

    Get in touch with Lextech on this forum. He can help you out with the ecm pin out sheets to repin your vortec harness to the 0411 ecm, he can also hook you up with an 0411 ecm. If later on down the road you decide to swap an LS into the vehicle Lextech can also hook you up with a/c brackets so...

    Want to add an auxiliary rear power lock switch at the barn doors.

    My 97 c1500 Sub has a rear liftgate not barn doors and came with the auxiliary lock/unlock switch factory. Also factory keyless entry with trunk button just to open the cargo area separately. The truck has Lt trim. One might be able to look at wiring diagrams for this application and see what an...

    99 Suburban Tow Mirrors

    They look good guys. Just a heads up. I found that K-Source is the manufacturer of the OE mirrors on the gmt800 series and later trucks. I am not sure if they make any for our 400 series. You can find them on eBay and Amazon. They are the mirrors that actually sit flat across and are not angled...

    Need Wheel Dimension Help

    I am not sure of back space either. My 97 Suburban is 2wd. I put the 95-96 Impalla SS wheels on mine. 17x8 or 9" wide (sorry don't remember) with 265/70r17 fits flush. I also have a 97 K1500 ecsb Z71 GMC with a factory 05-06 Chevy 5 star wheel with the same 265/70r17 tire. Sits flush.

    12200411 PCM swap for 1996 to 2000 GMT400 trucks

    Ok that works. Will this ecm work with a drive by cable set up? I understand the ecm has to be reflashed, but can you tell me what all has to be done in the ecm? Again, i will be running the 5.3 LS not the vortec. May I pm you in regards to the pin out sheets? Thanks, Chris .

    12200411 PCM swap for 1996 to 2000 GMT400 trucks

    Thank you Jeff. Now knowing that it will work is there different pin out sheets for that ecm versus the 0411? My plan is to convert straight to an LS not using the Vortec 5.7. Would i modify the Vortec harness to fit the LS or would i modify the LS harness to the Vortec? I would like all of the...
