    Just Another Oil burner

    1998 6.5 TD k2500 SLE, ECLB, new to me last week. My first diesel but not first 88-98 chev truck. No rust, high kms (400,000). He was asking 7500, the wife (yes, the wife!) got him down to 5000. I told the wife what was wrong with it, but let her negotiate because I wanted the truck too badly to...

    Need compressor recomendation

    Ok, so this is not "exactly" a bagged suspension question, but I do have Firestone helper bags on the rear of the truck. :) I figured if I was going to get a recommendation for a compressor, the air suspension guys would be the ones to ask. My needs are small: 1. Air the helper bags up and...

    98 style wiper arms

    Looking for a pair or wiper arms for my 98. I have the pin style from my old 89 on it and prefer then as they sit lower on the windshield. They will not work, however, for the wiper shakers I am making. I need a set of the hook style for clearance issues. My original 98 wiper arms were...

    6.5 turbo billet wheel, ebay....

    http://www.ebay.ca/itm/111270944603?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 Yeah, not so sure I buy his claims. I know from personal experience squeezing more than 300 hp out of a 6.5 turbo takes a hell of a lot more than a new wheel and a reflash. I'm at the 300 hp mark and no...

    Need an installer to verify my door locks, 1998 GMC sierra

    The truck: 1998 GMC K2500 Sierra Factory RKE. From what I can gather and looking at wiring diagrams it's a positive triggered system and relays are already built into the system. [/IMG] E is B+, C is the Factory RKE/door switches input for unlock, B is lock. Here's the remote start/alarm...

    I find myself fighting the urge....

    ... more and more to attempt grafting a topkick/kodiak dash into my 98: Yeah, it's really a van body, yeah it's from a newer generation but the sheer available real estate available on the dash is sooooo tempting. A little racket fabricating, a little plastic shaving and it might...

    Build a "wiper shaker"

    Well, no more denying it: winter is here. And yeah, the wipers on the truck are an icy mess too. The heated wiper fluid is dong it's job well, as is the heated washer nozzles. Spraying just fine even when it is frozen over in freezing rain. But those bloody wipers just keep building up that...

    Dual aternator install - 96-2000 6.5 diesel

    So, I HAD dual alternators on my 6.5 Turbo Diesel. This summer I knew I wouldn't be plowing come winter and a "friend" of mine has a 6.5 that he plows with. It has a power pak hydraulic system and he's always complaining about dimming lights and whatnot. So, I loaned him my setup with the...

    Interesting passlock workaround

    Never heard of this one before: http://www.gmupfitter.com/files/media/photo/284/Bulletin_20.pdf Seems like the "security" light stays on with this method. Sounds like it's meant for things like boom trucks and whatnot.

    Diesel sub forum please

    So there's a fair number of oil burners on the forum these days and it seems to be growing. Any chance we could add a diesel subforum in the engine section? I have a fair bit of info to give out, but it will get completely lost in the engine performance section. Would be nice if diesel...
