    Did I just buy the wrong Service Manual?

    I got a (what I thought was) a great deal on eBay for the Service Manual for my 1999 Chevy C2500 Classic Longbed 2WD truck. The cover clearly says C/K and Silverado, and I was sure it would cover my GMT400. The first page (see pic), however, doesn't say anything about C/K, only...

    1999 C2500 Windshield Wipers Not Going Down Far Enough At Rest

    After looking at many pictures and actual GMT400 trucks on the road, I notice that my windshield wipers seem to stop at rest several inches too high.
