    4l80e clicking/rattling noise

    It was just a fluid and filter change. I have heard horror stories from people flushing there turbo hydromatics so k didn't want to risk it. That is a possibility though. A cracked flex plate might be another possibility. Can you see from the inspection plate if your flexplate is cracked or is...

    1998 c2500 brakes locking up

    Update: I replaced my wheel bearings, rotors, brake pads and calipers on the front wheels. At first I thought that solved the problem however when it rains they still act goofy and lock up at low speeds. I'm thinking along the lines of ABS? Or maybe the drums in the rear. If it's the abs is...

    1998 c2500 brakes locking up

    Hey guys I have a 1998 c2500 8 lug truck. One night coming home from work a deer ran out in front of me and I locked up my breaks. They have never been the same since then. At certain speeds braking my steering wheel will jerk left and right and the truck will kinda hop. And recently after it's...

    Hey I'm looking at a Maxxhaul adjustable headache rack part number 70234 for my truck. I'm wondering if anyone has one on there truck and how it conforms to the contours of the GMT400 cab.

    350 Vortec loosing coolant?

    The oil doesn't look milky but after I topped of the coolant with 50/50 the oil level isn't going down. But the oil doesn't look milky. It doesn't leak a drop of any fluid either.

    350 Vortec loosing coolant?

    I just purchased a 1998 c2500 with a 350 Vortec with a 4l80e. It's a decent truck except that it uses coolant. When I first got it I changed the oil and drove it for a while. I noticed it was burning some oil so I was adding a 1/4 quart in 500 miles. My stupid self forgot to look at the coolant...

    Ok thanks for the replies. How many quarts does it take? It has the factory trans cooler (I think they all do?), And what trans fluid is the best for a high milage trans?

    To change? Or not to change? 4l80E fluid

    Hey I just bought a 1998 c2500 350 Vortec with 204,000 miles. I'm going through it and doing a bunch of maintenance and I was wondering about the trans fluid. I've heard horror stories that the fluid was changed and the trans started to slip because the clutches got used to the way that fluid...

    98 C2500 popping noise

    It's hard to make a video because of my straight pipes... Honestly it's more of a "feel" than a sound. I can defenetly hear something but can most certainly feel it moving. The feeling I can feel is something moving from my feet on the floor pan- firewall.

    98 C2500 popping noise

    Yeah the streering is sloppy and the truck walks all over the road but, I'm used to it from our other GMT 400. Is there a special greece to use on the zircs? Or can I use any Ol' multipurpose that I have in my gun?

    98 C2500 popping noise

    I just had an alignment and the shop said everything looked good upfront. Yes it is a long bed. And it makes the noise whenever the suspension articulates ie. Bumps or uneven ground. How could I check the driveshaft carrier bearing? All of the u joints in the drive shaft are good. So I'm not...

    98 C2500 popping noise

    I didn't know where to post this so, I'll just put it here. Anyway, I recently purchased a 1998 Chevy Cheyenne 2500 2wd 350 Vortec. I like the truck but it does have 200,000 miles and some issues. The main problem is a popping noise I hear when I'm moving in any direction. It's hard to explain...
