    Flat towing, engine off, p/s fluid question

    I permanently mounted a tow bar on my old '88 K1500. It's not licensed and I've got some stuff to fix, namely the leaking power steerimg. What happens to power steering fluid when the engine isn't running and I'm flat towing it? Does it just stay in the p/s pump and bypass internally? I never...

    10 bolt brakes

    Leading/trailing vs duo servo, obviously the latter is preferable. The duo servo is stock on my Yukon. The leading/trailing is on my RC stepside. Here's the question. Can the entire Yukon duo servo backing plate, shoes, drums get swapped to the stepside truck? Because the Yukon is getting a...

    Dual Alternators

    Non A/C truck, factory "bypass" pully, and she runs great. But with: headlights, heater fan, amber warning lights, tunes, wipers, snow plow, and low RPM... clearing out 14" of fluffy white goodness from 3 driveways seems to draw down the (new last September) dual batteries. So I'm pondering a...

    Exhaust drone elimination

    1995 Chevy 2500 chassis cab that had a service body when I bought it. Yanked it and put on a flatbed, tool box, dual spare tires, the whole Baja look. The original muffler is long gone, due to New Yuck salty winters, and its replacement was in the same condition when I bought the truck. I wanted...

    Y-pipe upgrade?

    Vehicle is a 1995 Chevy 2500, 5.7 TBI Does the '96 & up Vortec dual converter pipe assy fit the angle and diameter of the outlets of the TBI exhaust manifold? I've got a Magnaflow cat-back system for the 131" wheelbase truck in my "spare parts" inventory, and I purchased a 2500 reg. cab...

    Exhaust diameter

    Question first then explanation. What effect does a short section of small diameter exhaust pipe after the "muffler" actually affect? Higher exhaust note? Now, I say "muffler" because theres no back pressure in the tailpipes and I'm deleting the muffler anyway. The Vortec 5.7 and its dual...

    P/S gearbox

    Is there a difference in the gearbox between a truck with vacuum brakes and hydroboosted brakes? My 1998 2500 Suburban, 5.7 gasser... the frame is too badly rotted so I'm Vortec/4L80/263 8-lug axle swapping my 1988 single cab short bed 1500 TBI truck. Can I keep the 1500 gear box?

    8 lug swap 1500 and upgrades

    I've got four 4x4 GMT400 trucks: 1988 GMC 1500, my first 4x4, the ole Blue 2 door shortbed stepside, the one that New Yuck state and their salty winter roads have reeked havok on the body panels, but the frame is still solid. Originally a 4.3 stickshift, I grenaded the Getrag tranny twice...

    Broken outer door handle

    I have broken the textured outer door handle on my '00 Denali and my '98 Suburban multiple times over the last few years...from yanking on it during the winter due to ice, to just normal wear. Strangely, my 1988 still has the original smooth finish handle (I broke the interior on that truck...
