    4x4 Manual floor stick to push button?

    I lovvvvvved my floor mounted shifter. Only when it was below 32 degrees would it give me trouble, but I replaced some gizmo and it worked like a charm once more. Don't get me started on the GMT800 t-cases......

    The Offroad Wheel and Tire Thread

    I bought my '95 with 285-75-16 BFG MT's on stock steel wheels. Not bad tires considering they were bald. I then bought some 35x10.50 Buckshot Gumbo Mudders, which come to find out would be my favorite tires on this truck. They only lasted two years, so I scooped up some 285-75-16 Maxxis Buckshot...

    Beefy tires?

    I've ran through some Swamper TSL's, LTB's, Boggers, old style Wrangler MT/R's, Maxxis Buckshot Mudders, Buckshot Gumbo Mudders, Mud Brutes, Toyo MT's, and my personal favorite - KM2's. Just depends on how deep your pockets are

    What have you towed lately

    Just a small story to share about my GMT400. Had some 35" Buckshots on my Sierra, and headed to the local quarry to get a load of fill dirt ($20 a load, no matter how big). Being that I lived 20 miles away, I wanted to get it all it one load, so I had the foreman in a very large CAT end loader...

    My 94 ECRB Sierra 4x4.

    3.73's are definitely a plus, I had 4.10's and 35" Buckshots and it had more power than those all stock 305 equipped trucks. A compression check would be the first thing I'd do and go from there. I was getting 13mpg on a good day, usually 11 or so loaded or unloaded.

    My old stable

    Thanks all. I really had no interest in a hot rod square body to begin with. I had an '87 Sierra on 38" Boggers and was looking for a cheap DD. A bargain 350 fell in my lap, and the surface rust was growing on me (and not in a good way). The only logical choice was to build it right, since...

    My new 1996 k2500 eclb

    I replaced over 20 inside handles on each door, and several outside ones due to ice. I always carried 2 behind the seat, it was better than reaching out the window constantly

    My old stable

    Thank ya kind sir. Spent a lot of time and a decent amount of money on it. I'd love to get it down here to NC and put some more miles on it. I FORGOT to mention it only has 80-some thousand miles on it. Motor has about 40k cuz it came out of a '70.5 Camaro and sat for 20 years

    My new 1996 k2500 eclb

    I hear ya! Every door rusts at the bottom, weights 200 pounds a piece, eats pins and bushings for breakfast, door handles are a JOKE (inside and out), and my key lock was far from good. I got rid of my strip on the '95, but kept it on the '06. Some 285's and a level will make it look legit

    My 94 ECRB Sierra 4x4.

    285's and a tired 305 aren't the greatest combo, take off power and mpg would benefit from the right gearing. What does it have now, 3.42's or 3.73's, etc?

    My 94 ECRB Sierra 4x4.

    I've drove two '88 RCLB's with the 5.0L NV3500 combo and they leave a lot to be desired. Once you get it running good, what are you planning on doing?

    You've got a good little project truck there

    My old stable

    Anywho I thought it was fast with the 350...until I got the 383 and big carb. Now its just too fast and too light in the back end. How did you like your 4bt'd beast?

    My old stable

    Thanks! It was my pride and joy for a while, really proud of it. Now its just a fair weather cruiser that gets 10 mpg. Kind of useless when you've got a family

    My new 1996 k2500 eclb

    Definitely got some potential. Those ECLB have the best stance IMO.

    Who do we have from East TN or West NC???

    Not too far at all. I'm looking for an OBS around here that I can fix up

    Thank ya. Bought it for $500 with some body rust, sold the 4.3L to fund the 383 project, and traded a .9mm to have it painted. Replaced all the chrome, weather strips, glass, mirrors, interior as you can tell, and put some Line-X in the bed. Now it collects dust since I have an '01 Civic to DD...
