    Best trailer brakes?

    I've got a 1988 GMC K1500, I recently got a job in a new field. I tow more trailers than I used to, most fully loaded with A/C units. It's getting sketchy towing without trailer brakes. I want one that's easy to install, electrics aren't my forte (I can tell you there's positive and negative...

    First time, always the best

    This thread turned out way more innocent that the title led me to think.... Anyhoo, I recently bought a welder. I'm liking it a lot. So cool to watch 2 pieces of metal be fused together by electricity!

    Climate control panels

    Interested in both. My A/C controls aren’t in the best shape. I’m just outside Duluth, MN so the drive wouldn’t be bad. I’ll DM you about it.

    Hello everyone

    Truck is still going strong. Recharged the air and put new shocks in. Still works hard. Towed a 10 ft trailer with it the other day, didn’t even feel it.

    Hello everyone

    It's been quite awhile since I've been on. I got it home on the 10th. Runs really good, no issues so far. Tagged and registered with ND plates for now. Transmission just needed fluid. The seats are really comfy, it gets my trash to the dump, 4x4 works, and I'm really pleased with it. I'm gonna...

    Hello everyone

    I'm still out here, I'm waiting to get the bank to get my money out. Takes those losers 4-5 seconds to take the money in but 4-5 business days to take it out :rolleyes: Truck is good, I'm gonna call it John. My Bravada is named "Jack" and my 98 is named "Diane", hinting to a specific song. Did...

    Hello everyone

    I haven’t found one yet but have been offered one in Minot, ND by my girlfriends uncle. It’s an 88 GMC K1500; Extended cab short bed, crate 350 installed in 2015, TH400 (so I’m told) automatic, it has different handles than a normal 400 (instead of lifting up you pull toward you like a GMT800)...

    400 vs newer

    Being a little younger than most here on the forum, I can throw in my thoughts. I can't get over how bad new cars are styled, the mid 90s Dodge paved the way for good looking trucks, and cars by anyone up until 2005 or 2006. I myself have older cars, I also don't like drive by wire junk. My...

    Hello everyone

    I found a few more today https://up.craigslist.org/cto/d/jackson-1994-silverado-x4/7466778982.html If it were me I'd sell the plow but it could be handy. I don't really need a dually but they are really cool. 4x4 is very helpful, winters out here get slippery @Cadillac Bob I found a blazer 4x4...

    Hello everyone

    My budget is no more than 10k. I had a Ford Escort that I sold for a good price, paired with saving up from work. I think I'm one of the few people in my age area that can write a check and drive stick! I have test driven some, I love the feel of it. These trucks are super smooth and no frills...

    Hello everyone

    My dad bought his truck from Minnesota Truck Headquarters and they have one for sale but it's a little much. https://www.yourmth.com/St-Cloud-Inventory/1988-GMC-C_K_1500-Saint_Cloud-fSpYN3VIGEOP~0SrQp6X5g Found some others around the country, I found them on CarGurus but the link for them are...

    Hello everyone

    I’m going to be 20 next month. I know they make those covers for the bed but I mean like over the backseat. I do plan on owning it for awhile, and I’m not quite ready to have kids but I don’t need more than an extended cab for that and again, if the price on a crew cab is good I might go for it.

    Hello everyone

    Wow! That’s worse than I thought too. I don’t mind the rounded interior but I don’t need to carry more than myself and my girlfriend occasionally so I don’t need the dual airbag ones but I don’t mind having extra safety for sure. Also I do like having an extended cab. Even if my need to carry...

    Hello everyone

    My girlfriend's dad sent me this one last night https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/ctd/d/minneapolis-1992-gmc-sierra-1500-club/7464125775.html . Looks good to me but I don't understand what those fins on the bed are for. Extensions to the bed or a roll-bar? I would like buckets but I'm not...

    Hello everyone

    I'm for sure willing to travel, I'm willing to go out west to the end but east the furthest is likely Indiana. I'm willing to go out to Arkansas and Tennessee and everywhere in between those. I have a small list of things for me to ask about from what I gathered. Mostly on rust and most...

    Hello everyone

    Thank you, I'll keep that in mind for when I post it.

    Hello everyone

    Would it be fine if I put it in the eBay and Craigslist finds section for the time being? Miles don't really matter much, I don't want more than 500k miles. Rust is fine, just not major. I prefer the look of the GMC's, reminds me of my grandpa's truck and like it a little more than the Chevy...

    Hello everyone

    Where should I post that? I have a few things I'd like and want a separate post for that I'm in the suburbs of Duluth, I like it here but Rochester keeps calling my name.

    Hello everyone

    Hey everyone. I'm looking for some info on a GMT400 before I buy one. My granddad had a 1992 Gmc Sierra extended cab 4x4 when I was growing up and I have good memories of these. I am used to smaller cars but I need a truck now that I'm more independent and I know these are good work trucks. My...
