    Weight Distribution Hitch

    I bought the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control, 10,000lbs for my 24ft enclosed car trailer. Rich Maple Valley, WA 1992 GMC K2500, 454/4L80E/3.73

    Normal 4L80E temp?

    I’ve already installed it inline just BEFORE the stock cooler. Will try that for the first tow. Had to order a new gauge as the first one was defective.

    Normal 4L80E temp?

    You’re saying a 92 OBDI has a temp sensor in the pan? I’ve been all over mine and haven't seen it. Guess I can look again.

    Q Re Proper hookup of 7 pin connector

    Yes, John, it was relative simple to hook up the connectors, but there were FOUR additional wires to the 4-pin connector. Those contain the 12v power and Aux Power. Just trying to figure out where those should be hooked up to. The few sources I consulted online did not specify constant or...

    Q Re Proper hookup of 7 pin connector

    GoToGuy - I bought a Cut kit 7-pin to 4-pin connector. The wiring diagram says "12v power" and "Aux Power". It says no more. There are red LED lights on the outside of the 7-pin connector (that is supposed to let you know if you have a good connection with the trailer, I believe). Those two...

    Q Re Proper hookup of 7 pin connector

    Yesterday I installed a 7 pin trailer connector to my 92 K2500. It appears the original came with a 4-pin. It's a Camper Special and I'm not sure where the connector would be for hooking that up - the manual says it's up front in the bed. Since there is a plastic bed liner, I haven't looked...

    Normal 4L80E temp?

    Yes! The renovation of this truck has been an evolution. I delve into the topic dejeure in this forum and sometimes I hit pay dirt, other times it doesn't come until I post what I did and kind folks like you, offer more sage advise. I did a good job plumbing in the tee fitting (no leaks...

    Normal 4L80E temp?

    The unit underneath/next to the Master Cylinder. As you probably know, ABS on a 1992 was only the rear drum brakes. Yes, this truck has the JB7 brake package.

    Normal 4L80E temp?

    I installed the sending unit in the hard line just before the cooler. I understand and accept that this may give me higher readings than the pan, but I'm okay with that. As Stutaeng said, I'll be mindful that it may be reading higher than if in the pan. The whole point of installing the...

    Normal 4L80E temp?

    I don’t know what the loaded trailer will weigh. I am planning for the worst scenario I can think of. I’ve rebuilt the brakes, including upgraded Master Cylinder, shocks, flushed/cleaned radiator, every sensor replaced & complete tuneup, Air-Lift 5 air bags, 4pt weight distribution hitch, new...

    92 K2500 Trailer Brake Controller connection

    I found wires in the rear above the spare tire and in the front below the brake booster. That you guys very much. The Prodigy P3 is suppose to arrive tomorrow. Installed the 7-pin connector today. Rich Maple Valley, WA

    92 K2500 Trailer Brake Controller connection

    I did find those wires (after cutting away all the electrical tape). What I can’t find is the other end, under the dash.

    92 K2500 Trailer Brake Controller connection

    I crawled all over the truck - under the dash and under the rear plug. I could not find a separate wire that may work for the Brake Controller. The 7 pin plug only has 4 wires going to it. I'll have to run a wire from the Controller to a new 7-pin connector. Rich Maple Valley, WA 1992 GMC...

    92 K2500 Trailer Brake Controller connection

    Rained all day, but hoping tomorrow I can check for those wires. Got a quote to install one (parts & labor) of $495. I think I’ll do it myself.

    92 K2500 Trailer Brake Controller connection

    Thanks for responding because you confirm what I suspected - the convenient plug I want came on later model years. Now I'm wondering if its a DIY or pay a professional. I'm so wary of taking my vehicles anywhere these days - seems it's a crap shoot whether you get anyone knowledgeable and a...
