    Original GM gearbox vs aftermarket, which is better?

    Need to replace gear box on my 95 c3500 CCLB, I have a lead on a new GM 26087034 steering gear box. Would this be better than an after market one from NAPA, Orielly or AutoZone? The GM was discontinued to 2005/2006 timeframe.

    1999 K2500 Suburban - Hydroboost leaking, replace or upgrade?

    I had to replace mine on a 95 c3500 cclb that was leaking for over a year. Picked one up at Pick A Part, put it on without messing with the brake master cylinder and hasn't leaked a drop. Picked up an ATEAM gasket kit for the leaker, but have not put it in yet.

    How to Replace oil filter adapter gasket & o-ring

    Replaced the leaking o-ring and fiber gasket with the gm kit. Took about 30 minutes or so, cleaned all the gunk off the cooler lines and mating surfaces. No more leaks. Guess it wasn't the rear main seal after all.

    Door sag

    Checked a body shop on pricing the front door hinge pins and bushings. Said $250.00 without even getting out of his chair to rake a look at it. I mentioned that the hole on the body side of the hinge was egged and he said that the would have to replace the hinge. Maybe I'll invest in some...

    Door sag

    I went out to the truck and took new photos of the upper hinge on the driver's side. The upper (small) bushing is worn/broke so that the pin is against the outer edge of the hole (does not appear to have elongated the hole), the lower (large) bushing is also broke and the lower hole on the body...

    Door sag

    Needing to replace the pins/bushings on the driver's door. The hole for the top hinge lower bushing (larger one) is visually elongated and the door sags about 1/4 inch and rides up on the striker bolt. Enough wear on the latch to have a nice groove in it. National Parts and Abrasives make...

    Had to unplug the controller just to see if I could get the truck started. Plugged it back in and no start. Just guess it fried itself.
