    How to use Tow/Haul shifter buttons to control Android radio

    Very cool. Been meaning to update my single din to a double din. I think this would be a great upgrade. I've noticed a lot of the newer radios are much easier to program buttons for, just never thought of something like this. Thanks for the information

    1999 Tahoe Engine Code 430 and 442

    Never had to drill them out. The ones you buy at the auto store you do need to drill, but the ones on ebay have a through hole the correct size of the o2 sensor...

    Bought a K2500, wrong mileage, needs some work, advice?

    Honestly in my opinion any truck over 175k is going to have these problems. **** if the truck made it that high and it runs fine, then you’re already in a good spot. What’s the difference between a high mileage truck with all new suspension and steering replaced and a 50k mile truck that’s been...

    1999 Tahoe Engine Code 430 and 442

    I’ve always used the ones on eBay that come up when you search o2 spacer. Should be less than $10. They also make ones that have mini catalyst in them, but I’ve never tried them

    How to wire power seats like stock?

    No I totally agree with you. Why go through the work to install new parts or upgrades that will only need to be removed to be fixed in the future or will always be on the list of things to fix? I've got a bit on that list of thing to fix, but most haven't been a big enough problem to get fixed...

    How to wire power seats like stock?

    The seats probably could benefit from being cleaned and greased. They are not really meant to be fast. Definitely slower than modern car seats. As long as they move while you are sitting on them, I wouldn't be too worried about the speed. I think I adjusted the power seats in my 2500 twice and...

    How to wire power seats like stock?

    How many wires are running to the seat? I believe on older models, most time its just a power and a ground. If that's the case, you should be able to test out the seats before install to ensure they work and then just run a fused power to the seat and ground out the other on the seat frame

    New here from Gallatin, Tennessee

    Beautiful looking truck. Everything about that just flows perfectly together. Makes me want to get a 2wd dually now

    2500 crew cab rebuild parts

    I appreciate it. I still haven’t had anyone come look at it yet, but the more I think about it, the more likely I am to rebuild it. I’ll just have to wait for the snow to disappear and the ground to dry up first

    2500 crew cab rebuild parts

    Thank you for the knowledge. I’d be surprised if the trucks were different from one another. There is a crew cab on market place for parts near me right now, but it’s always much harder to get them off than buy new replacements. Also I know this is most likely true, but it would probably be...

    2500 crew cab rebuild parts

    I’ll update when I get a call. Should hear something by Monday. It looks like I could repair it myself. Figure I can get a head start on pricing parts out now

    2500 crew cab rebuild parts

    Good deal on that SS. I’ve been wanting one for so long, but it’s impossible to find one around here in decent shape for 15k or less

    2500 crew cab rebuild parts

    yes I wish I didn’t live in Ny either. Between the salt and the drivers it is hard to keep anything nice. I might still buy it back and keep it to fix or what not. Sucks that it was a perfectly running and driving vehicle that still runs and drives mostly fine now

    2500 crew cab rebuild parts

    Great to know that. Just bummed about it since I’ve only had it for a few months and was looking forward to rebuilding it when the weather got nice. I guess I’ll see what check they cut me and how much it would be to buy it back

    2500 crew cab rebuild parts

    Hi all. I woke up today to find out my truck was hit in the rear while parked. Besides the main and cosmetic body damage, it looks like the leaf spring and the hanger took the worst of everything. I’m not buying parts yet to fix it, just want to find out and know which parts are compatible...
