    Having the known GM taillight issues. Who makes the best aftermarket tailights? What are yall running?

    Thanks Erik for that. Yeah so far I've heard and read that TYC and Anzos are what everyone recommends. I didn't even know they sold the board separately, that's like going in a old school auto parts store and actually fixing the old one rather than buying new as you mainly see today. I had to...

    K2500 sputtered for about 5 seconds and cleared up, acts like it's low on gas when I turn corners and sputters and feels like it's loses power

    That's what I'm starting to think also is that little hose in the fuel tank, dad was even saying it could be that also. Appreciate it Richard on the input

    Turned my 2000 k2500 on this morning for work and turned my headlights on and shut the whole truck down, won't turn back on HELP!!!!

    Well I figured it out someone who had the truck before the owner I bought it from did a tacky positive ground rigging. Used a bigger nut that wouldn't fit on as a spacer and the darn thing would come lose over time. Had to cut the rubber insulation to make it connect properly and get a new bolt...
