    1988 brake booster, Non HD brakes

    Thanks! I couldn't find a darn thing on this subject. Will the booster swap help me out without swapping the brakes? Also my truck is a k1500 so would I need to swap knuckles? Its 4x4 so I don't have spindles.

    94 Chevy Truck Tailight issues

    Im currently having a similar issue. Ive replaced the circuit boards on the taillights and all the bulbs. I also inspected the whole rear harness for damaged wires. Ive narrowed it down to a bad ground somewhere in the truck. Ill let you know if I get my issue figured out.
