    Roof rust under weather stripping

    Hi guys, So I have finally started looking at my 97 GMC Sierra, cataloguing all the things that need doing to it at a minimum and lo and behold... Rust. There is a little in the floor, which I am not too concerned about, but the rust building on the roof has me worried. Now I am located in...

    4L80e from a TD into a 350 K1500

    Hi folks, I have yet to start sorting out my k1500 Sierra, as I am in Australia things are trickier to here. My extra cab truck is a 350 sbc with the 4L60e with the NP246 and the 14 bolt semi floating rear diff. Just wondering if the 4L80e and transfer case (np243 I think) from a 99 Suburban...

    97 Sierra engine miss while driving

    Howdy from Australia

    Hi guys! Somehow I found myself a 1997 GMC Sierra in the north east of Australia... so I bought it. It needs a few things to neaten it up, but mechanically it is rock solid. Unfortunately I'm not in the north east of Australia yet, so the old man has it in his shed, and given his words "if...
