    1991 Chevrolet Silverado (TX)

    Well, it's time to move on. I've had a lot of fun on the forums with you guys and it's been a blast working on this thing and shooting the breeze with everyone but life is telling me I need to let go of her. My 1991 Chevrolet Silverado is up for sale, you can find the build thread in my...

    Wiring Gremlins >:(

    So I have a problem with my 1991 C1500. I have a short or something that's causing battery drain somewhere. I pulled the engine harness as I had a couple of frayed wires. Repaired them, and put it all back together. Put a fresh battery in, and within a week it's dead again. I also took out the...

    TBI to Carb?

    Alright, I know I'm gonna catch flak for this but at this point I'm at my wits end. My truck came from it's previous owner with a strange wiring harness. Lots of sketchy clamps, some frays, etc. I recently took it out to repair some spots and redo some connectors. Took plenty of pics...

    Strange Grey Box

    Hey everyone, I'm back from the dead! But my truck sadly isn't. Got a wiring short somewhere, and I think I found it in my engine harness. Currently removed and exploring options to have it rebuilt, but I wanted to ask about this strange grey box I found amongst the wiring. I've never seen this...

    Replacement Oil Dipstick Tube?

    I finally got my dented oil dipstick tube out, and now I'm trying to source out a replacement. It seems like every option I come across is littered with bad reviews regarding fitment. Anyone found a good replacement?

    Liland Global Radiator?

    Has anyone ran this brand radiator before? It's an all aluminum one, and after my radiator decided to crap out on me after the truck not running for three months I'm looking to replace this radiator and (hopefully) never worry about it again.

    Gauging Prices: Stock 1/2 Ton Spindles (Ext. Cab)

    Just looking to see if anyone has any stock spindles for my 91 ECSB lying around. I might possibly be taking my truck back to stock form to sell the lift kit and tires and go a different direction (i.e. just leveling the rear out with some lowering shackles and calling it done). Let me know if...

    2WD SAS Possible?

    I guess it was only to be expected at this point. From planning to lower this truck to lifting it. Now I'm really ready to see some mud and dirt in this thing. I know the general consensus is that selling it and buying a 4WD would be easier, but I feel such a personal connection to this truck...

    Z28 (Rectangular) Exhaust Tips?

    Anyone ever installed Z28 tips at the rear of their truck? I've always loved the rectangular style exhaust tips and think they'd go great with the shape of our trucks, I just want to see if someone has done it before I pull the trigger and buy the $90 a pair tips lol

    Idler Arm Removal (2WD This Time)

    Hello everyone, My truck has been sidelined by what I thought was a bad ball joint(s) due to the fact my truck had a horrible passenger side wheel wobble while driving 30-65mph, but after closer inspection it appears the ball joints and pitman arm are fine but it's the idler arm that's about to...

    Camper Top Interchangability?

    Is anyone aware if camper tops designed for a 99-07 6.5ft camper top will fit the fleetside 6.5ft bed? Kinda want to get a camper top to both use when camping with friends, transporting my hound to the lake and around town, and because extended cabs with campers just look great honestly.

    4" Cowl Hood

    Looking to sell or trade my all steel 4" cowl hood (think it was made by KeyParts?). Ended up not lowering/modding the engine and honestly I'd prefer a smooth OEM hood over this. Price is $200 obo for the GMT400 family, got it listed higher on CL. Would also trade for a white hood and white...

    Replacement U-Bolts for Rear?

    On the off chance that this deal I have in the works goes through, I'm going to need a set of replacement OEM U-Bolts to replace my extended lift U-Bolts in the rear of my truck currently. Does someone know where I can get my hands on a replacement set? All the ads online I've found are extended...

    Under Seat Powered Sub?

    Just wanted to throw a post out there and see if anyone's done an under seat powered sub in their GMT400. I'm debating doing it because I don't want to take up a ton of the room in my extended cab area and have always wanted a bit of a stealth sub setup as well to be honest. Anyone done this...

    Sagging Headlights?

    Hello everyone, I had a quick question regarding my headlights as I'm looking to get this issue squared away soon. I recently purchased an eBay special core support to replace my bent one from the PO, and also bought new headlights. I've tried adjusting the headlights as much as possible but...

    High School Kid’s Build, Question...

    Hello everyone, I’m sure most of you know me and my truck but it’s a little known fact that I have a little brother who just started his sophomore year in high school and is looking at buying his first vehicle. Of course, I’m trying to get him into a GMT400 so I can help him work on it if/when...

    Composite to W/T Headlight Wiring

    Hello everyone! I know I've been relatively quiet on the forums lately as I've been busy with relocating myself to a new home and work has also gotten a bit much as well. However, now that the craziness has died down to a tolerable level I'm looking to get some more work done on the truck...

    Side Marker Securing?

    Hello everyone, I got a quick question that I can't seem to dig up. What do you call the little nuts that secure the corner markers to the grille, and where can I get a set? I've used my stock ones multiple times and they're starting to break down on me. I can't for the life of me find...

    Wheel Space Issue [Fixed]

    Sorry if this is in the wrong category, didn't really see a dedicated wheel and tire section and right now my wheel is interfering with my brakes. Long story short, I threw a set of 15x8 wheels all around my lifted C1500. The rear works great (mainly because of the 1.5" spacer in the rear that...

    Tow Hook Alternatives?

    Anyone know of a good alternative to sourcing out OEM tow hooks for the front? I don't mind paying name brand price for some parts but $100+ for two hooks without bolts is just ridiculous IMO. I'd love to see/hear about alternatives you guys have relied on for this (aside from junkyard, might go...

    Awesome Spare Tire Carrier Idea

    Pulled from my local CL, loving the idea. Since lifting and installing my trailer hitch I wasn't too confident in putting my spare 32" under my truck so I've been looking into spare tire carrier ideas. Guy said it was custom fabricated (and I was the 5th person to ask about it lol). I asked the...

    Bed Rail Caps

    I was hoping to get some pictures of GMT400 owners with bed rail caps, tailgate protectors, bulkhead protectors, etc. Thinking about picking up a set for my truck but can't decide what I want. Not sure if I'll like the black rail caps on my white truck bed but also unsure how the chrome ones...

    '91 C1500 5.7L, Extra Oil Port?

    I have a set of aftermarket gauges I've ran to monitor things more closely (Trans temp, oil pressure and voltmeter). All electric. I'm looking for a spot on the engine for the oil pressure sender that doesn't replace the one near the distributor in order to keep everything kosher with the PCM...

    Let's Talk Towing (With a 25+ Year Old Truck)

    So I wanted to start a thread and get some personal experience from others about towing with their trucks, and wanted a bit of advice myself. I'm relatively new to my '91 C1500, and the only time I've ever had to tow something rather large was helping a friend move (which towing a loaded down...

    15x10 Wheels 2WD?

    I wanted to know if anyone has 15x10 wheels on the front of their 2WD GMT400. I'm looking to run them with my front spindles which pushed the wheels out considerably, but I'm half afraid they might rub on the spindle itself since my stock rallies rubbed when I installed them. Anyone got any...
