    Need driveshaft parts numbers or where to look please

    Thanks for all of the replies... we have a fabulous shop here in the Birmingham, AL area. I will pull it and take it there. You are a wealth of info. I've never had to deal with driveshaft issues before.

    Need driveshaft parts numbers or where to look please

    The rear driveshaft in my 88 C3500 is slightly bent and vibrating. Not too bad, but bad enough that I want to replace it. Can I just replace the rear of the two piece shaft? Does it just slide off the spline coming out of the carrier? If I can just replace that one shaft, can someone please...

    Extended cab side window head scratcher

    The driver's side is like that; the passenger side has NOTHING. No hinges at all. So, the driver's side is correct, and I need hinges for the passenger side, correct? Just don't want to order something I don't need. Thanks for the response.

    Extended cab side window head scratcher

    My 88 C3500 extended cab has a head scratcher where the pop out windows are concerned. The driver's side has the hinges that, I suppose, the windows glue into. It looks like a bolt goes through, but I figured that was for show. The other side has... nothing. I never noticed until it tried to...

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    It has a lot of fluid on it... and the puddle was big; like 15x18 inches or so.

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    Passenger side under the tranny. Not overfilled. I've had it for over a year. I regularly check all of my fluids; it was in the safe zone between low and full.

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    It puked at least half a quart after I pulled into the driveway... it took it a day to a day and a half... all in one big puddle. Does that fit into the narrative above?

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    Anyone have thoughts on this? Look... I'm really ignorant when it comes to trannies... after I put the high line back on (after pulling it and checking it) I filled it up with fluid and drove it several miles down the road and back. It pulled and shifted just like it always did. When I got...

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    No... it was so late when I got in on Sunday, then it was too rainy that week to even think of crawling around on the ground under it. Sunday was my first chance. I guess I'll splurge on enough fluid to fire it up and see where it's leaking... Thanks so much for the info!

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    It blew out coming up a very long, steep incline pulling my pontoon boat... spraying fluid all out behind the truck... when I got to the driveway it poured out into a big puddle on the driveway. So not just a leak, LOL...

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    I pulled the high pressure line and inspected it closely. It has no visible signs of damage. What is the next best place to look? I guess I can fill it back up with fluid, drive it, then see where it's leaking... maybe I should have done that to begin with, but I was just relieved to have truck...

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    It actually looks like the 4L60 is more like the TH400 so far as where the high and low lines go into the trans... lots to think about...

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    Sorry I've been out of pocket and not able to keep up with my own question... I thought about the 4L60 and the 4L80, since it's more like the TH400 compared to the TH350 being more like the 4L60, and pulled up similar pics of both of them and a TH400. I have been thinking that it could be...

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    So... a set for a 4L80 would NOT work? No way to start with something close and make modifications? I'm not averse to making my own... but I also hate reinventing the wheel.

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    Hard to find TH400 stuff... but we have a good Pull a Part here in the Birmingham area.

    HELP!! TH400 tranny cooler lines...

    I can't find them... I find plenty for the 4L60/E of course. Will ones for the 4L60 work, or do they have to be TH400 dedicated? LMC truck has no listing, and Classic Industries says "Available soon." I don't have time for available soon. I hate to go with the braided lines, but is that going...

    The real differences in 700r4/4l60/4l60e transmissions by year

    This thread doesn't mention the TH400 tranny in my 88 C3500, but I still have a question. My cooler lines are leaking badly, and I need to replace them. Do they clip onto the radiator, or do they screw on old school style? Also, I've found lines from a company for the 700r4/4L60, but not for...

    Source for factory or replacement seat bases?

    I still need pics, but I got the new seat bases installed. I now know that the seats that came in it, though nice, are far from factory. I had to custom fit them, but they look really nice. If only my wife could get up in them now!! They are much higher. Thanks to all who responded.

    Source for factory or replacement seat bases?

    I've kind of put the truck on the back burner... not dropping the ball. I'm off all next week and hope to go to Pull a Part and at least look at the two extended cabs they have that should match my truck.

    Source for factory or replacement seat bases?

    The seats are bolted to adjusters, which are bolted to the floor... am I missing something? I assumed that the seats bolted to the adjusters, which bolted to bases, which bolted to the floor. Have I been ignorant in this thread? Do the adjusters finish the sequence, or are they bolted to...

    Source for factory or replacement seat bases?

    The interior and engine were pulled for the repaint that was done to it, blue to silver on black. The seats appear to be original. I have no clue what happened with the bases.
