    K3500 Gearing

    So we bought our 98 K3500 crew cab 454 dually to haul a camper. We ended getting a relatively small camper (25 ft, 4500 lbs empty). Just my luck someone swapped the 4.10 gears for 4.56 gears. Obviously overkill and poor mpg/high cruising rpm has limited its use to just hauling. I have finally...

    K3500 and K2500 Front Differentials

    Good morning. I have 98 K3500 dually and looking to replace the front differential. I am finding a lot of 8 lug K2500 differentials. Do the K3500 dually and HD K2500 use the same front differential? Thank you.

    Luke Warm Heat

    Have a 91 K1500. Truck gets up to temperature but heat is only about 105 out of the vents. I flushed the heater core and put in a new thermostat with no real changes. Only other thing I can think of is the coolant is not circulating well. No noises or leaks from water pump. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Supercharged Towing

    Has anyone done any towingwith a supercharger on their 350 TBI? I am within trucks towing specs but looking for a little more oomph. I know the Whipple is ideal but no longer available. Anyone running a procharger? Or another brand? Thanks.

    91 K1500 350 TBI Running Rough

    Hi guys, I recently picked up this truck with 163k miles. Guy was a straight shooter and it was his backup truck. Drove it today for a few hours running errands etc. Ran like a champ. Took it back out in later in the day and it is running rough, no power and will hardly stay running. My...

    GMT400 Fan

    Good morning all. I have strayed a few times but I always come back to these trucks. People think I’m crazy for getting older vehicles but I like having something that I can fix. I still have the crew cab and recently got the standard cab 4wd. The brown and blue ones I have sold (should have...
