    GMT400 on a tow tolly? Possible!

    If anyone has ever wondered, yes it IS possible to tow a GMT400 on a uHaul tow dolly, and with another GMT400 no less. I needed to get one of my trucks out of shop hell and this was the easiest way for me to do it. Mind you I only towed it a distance of about 2 miles and I kept it under 35. The...

    Hey all, I was wondering if anyone had any experience installing a shallow chassis single DIN radio in the cassette player location? I don't use CDs anymore and really want an aftermarket radio that plays USB and AUX. I don't like how a regular single DIN unit sticks out and was thinking a...

    SUV Door Panel Swap

    Hi all, I found a set of door panels from a 94 2 door Yukon that I want to get for my 93 ECSB. I know the panels themselves are a direct swap but I was wondering about the switches? Will the harness in my pickup fit the switches from the Yukon or do I need to get the wiring from it too? I need...

    Government of Canada Surplus

    I routinely trawl the Government of Canada surplus auction website for interesting things. Fairly often GMT400s pop up for sale. Most of them are quite low mileage as they were used in national parks and the like. For instance, a few months back a 1972 Ford F-350 was for sale with 77000 kms...

    HELP - No Start Issue

    I have a 98 K1500 with a 5.7L. It is in long term storage at my parents' house, but I have recently come to need the truck so I'm trying to get it going again. A couple months ago my dad moved it in his yard to get his plow out and when he went to put it back the truck wouldn't start. We pushed...

    Park Brake Cable Part Numbers

    I need to replace the park brake cables on my truck and was hoping someone may have the part numbers for my application as the listings on Rock Auto are rather confusing trying to figure out which cables I need! I have an ECSB 1500 with a 14 bolt semi-float swapped in. I looked in the 2500...

    WTB Quad Headlights

    I'm looking for a quad headlight setup out of an 88-89 truck. I have an 89 parts truck but the headlight pots are rusted away to nothing. I think I could get away with just the pots but if I can get the whole setup rust free all the better. Don't need the bulbs, can supply those on my own. I...

    OEM Wheel Swap Picture Thread

    I'm wondering what kind of wheel/centre cap combos folks have come up with swapping OEM GM wheels (Chevy, GMC, Cadillac) rims on GMT400 trucks. My contributions: My dad's parts truck 94 with Tahoe/Suburban/Astro wheels: My 98 GMC with PF9's: I really wanted to change my wheels for...

    Canyon/Colorado Rims?

    Just wondering if anyone has tried putting Canyon or Colorado rims on a GMT400? They have the same bolt pattern and should be a straight swap, I'd think... Tried searching here but didn't have much luck.

    Which Colour?

    I am going to have to do a bunch of painting to replacement components for my truck, maybe even a full re-spray. The problem is I'm finding conflicting information on what colour my truck actually is. It is a 1998 GMC and according to the paint codes it was originally Copper Metallic Upper...

    1998 GMC K1500

    1998 'Holden' K1500 Hi all. Back in my introduction thread I was planning on fixing up a 94 Chevy K1500 that my dad had originally purchased for parts but came across a deal I couldn't pass up on a 98 GMC K1500. It isn't much to look at yet (has been old-man-ified) but it has had nearly the...

    Fuel Pump Relay Buzzing, No Start

    Hi all, I have a 1994 K1500 5.7L that I'm attempting to get running again. The truck has a bit of a hacked wiring harness due to someone installing a remote starter at some point. The wires from the firewall to the fuel pump have been replaced as well as the fuel pump itself with a known good...
