    1999-2000 Escalade parts - Center consoles, etc

    I sold my 1996 K2500 'Poopy' a few weeks back and want to offer these items to the group before posting on ebay or elsewhere. I have two (mostly complete) center consoles for GMT400 style Escalades. One is a decent but-needs-painted unit and the other is a useable, but not so nice condition...

    Hello From the UK

    Welcome to the site. From the engine pic you have posted this looks to be either a Camaro/Firebird TPI 5.7L V8 with the truck accessory brackets on the front or a Truck 5.7L with the Camaro/Firebird Tuned Port injection installed. The TPI setup could be a decent truck system, due to its...

    Occasional slow start

    The FPR is inside the intake plenum on the 5.7L Vortec. It is mounted to the side of the Spider manifold itself.

    96 C3500 CCLB lowered 454 Dually project........

    Thanks. Mine is not really 454 cubes anymore, so the sticker lies.

    96 C3500 CCLB lowered 454 Dually project........

    Mine are similar but Victory Red. Did mine 20 years ago. I first did them black when I rebuilt the motor in 1995. My truck had stamped steel VCs because Mark IV BBC. I wanted covers without the logo (like both of yours), but they weren't available at the time. When I redid the motor Red in 2000...

    Thanks. You read my mind.

    So... I did it

    The 4l80e is far superior to the 4l60e. The 4l80e is based off of the TH400, with an added overdrive and electronic control. The 4l60e is a time bomb ticking. Every one of them fails. Sometimes more than once. Nobody has luck with them, even if built pretty stout. If you were running a...

    Thank you for your response. That would've been my next question. Thanks again!

    96 C3500 CCLB lowered 454 Dually project........

    I was out in my 2500 last night and said to my self 'I need a better set of headlight bulbs'. As far as I know they are stock - I've never touched them in almost 5 years. I was gonna get a set of Silverstars, but now with a little digging I find the HIRs are far better then the Silverstars...

    99 burb Vortec No Crank

    The only reason I suggested the bulkhead is I have seen it on S-10s many times. I haven't really seen it on many GMT400s. Once I saw SAATR's post I was pretty certain that would be your issue. I forgot about that relay in the Dist center. I have fixed a few Jeeps with a similar issue. Glad to...

    What would it take to put the used whipple on my 5.7L Vortec?

    99 burb Vortec No Crank

    I would have said the Passlock, but if removed in the PCM, you should be fine there. Does it not crank at all when it acts up, or crank but not start? Do you have 12vdc on the yellow wire going down the column from the ign switch? The bulkhead connector can get corroded and cause intermittent...

    odd tab on the door, what is it?

    Window guide for sure. My 454SS pass window will not go up at over 70mph, because the wind moves the glass just enough to hit the guide. If I slow down below 70 i can put it up just fine. It has been that way for the last 25 years, and everybody thinks it is funny that I don't fix it. Nothing is...

    Lets see them 8 lugs!! 2500-3500 Photo thread!

    Very nice Budrick!

    So... I did it

    Then yes it is a 10.5" full floater. Again that info was not shared previously and I only saw the photo above. Listen you can get off your high horse buddy. I am not trying to sound like a know it all (like you are - or at least your shitty delivery). I have worked on plenty of these trucks...

    So... I did it

    Maybe you want to check your own facts. From the photo above, you cannot tell if the diff is a full floater or a semi floater. 8600 gvw gmt400 trucks have semi floating axles with a standard flange where the wheel bolts on. This would make it a 9.5" ring gear inside the 14 bolt case. A full...

    Service manuals?

    I think I paid $75 at Carlisle swap meet for a complete used set. One of the manuals had a missing cover and someone made a photocopy and glued it on. Works fine otherwise. A few greasy finger prints already in them. Don't bother me, 'cause I've added several myself.

    So... I did it

    Agreed. 2500's look tougher without the valance. Also I peeled the 4x4 sticker off my truck pretty early on. Much cleaner looking without it. ALso the tailgate CHEVROLET foil/ugly thing. I too find these trucks are much stiffer than a 1500, and never wanted to crank mine. My old 1500 was...

    So... I did it

    Hummer H2's with 285s and no crank on my 96. Nice looking truck. Looks like the same cap mine had for the first hour I owned it.

    Service manuals?

    ^^Agreed. Better than any aftermarket manual. I have all 3 pieces for both my 90 and 96.
