    OEM or Aftermarket Bedliner & Bed Cover (plus GMC banner question)

    I have seen one or two of these items in the past two years, and was wondering if these are GM made or custom made by somebody. 1. The original GMC banner / stripe Mine has a pretty good dent in it, and short of finding a used tailgate and swapping them, is there a source of new banners...

    Floor Mat Differences

    I was searching and found two different variations of the floor mat that goes in the floor of the extended cab part. In my 92 GMC, the mat in the extended cab area has a shape like (sorry I don't have pictures): Then I saw an auction for these GM floormats: I am not sure which shaped...

    Found some major brake damage

    Ever since I owned this truck, the brakes have been on the "mushy" side. I could pump the brakes a couple of times to build the pressure up, and it would stay pressured for a while, then loose it all. Recently, I could pump the brakes and no pressure would build at all. I checked and found that...

    Opinions on dash carpet?

    I'm toying around with the idea of putting one of those carpet dash covers in my '90 Sierra. Thought it looked neat, and is another measure to prevent the 24 year old plastic from cracking. :smile: I searched around and found some sources of them. One thing I didn't quite see is if they cover up...

    Standard vs Metric Door Bushings

    Was getting tired of slamming my door every day, so I replaced the bushings and pin in it. I found that after I replaced the bushings, I still had to slam the door to shut it fully. On my truck, the hole where the bushings fit into is a tiny bit bigger than what I had seen on a different GMT400...

    My 1990 GMC Sierra

    Well, here's what you'll find me driving around most days: I bought it back in July, and had to drive to the next state over (Tennessee) to get it. Didn't have any luck finding a GMC in VA. :) Back picture: That is one of the main reasons why I chose the specific year of this truck. I liked...

    Strange sound after I installed an oil pressure sender

    I re-installed the oil pressure sender in my '90 Sierra to get rid of the aftermarket gauge that was in there. I got it installed snugly and properly connected, but now when my truck is running, I hear a rapid clicking coming from the rear of the engine. Also when I accelerate, the clicking...

    Identify a GMC truck?

    Don't know how this would be classified, but it somewhat pertains to the body. A few months ago, I drove by a used car dealership and they had a GMC truck that had this exact grille style.... ......except instaed of the Chevy bowtie, it had a GMC logo. I have only seen this (C1500?) grille...

    Successfully fixed my receiver box

    For those who would love to keep the original radio and cassette player in their 88-94 trucks, but don't want to pay a lump sum to get the receiver box fixed, I've fixed mine with some new capacitors and some soldering skills. The problem with these receiver boxes is over time, the capacitors...

    Questions about the radio receiver box.

    I've got a few questions about the receiver boxes in the 88-94 trucks. -First, did GM officially recognize it as a faulty part? -Second, were those receiver boxes used only in the 88-94 trucks or were they used in other vehicles as well? I don't think they were used in the 95-98 line, since...

    Howdy from southwest VA!

    Hello all! I'm Ian and I've now found myself driving a 1990 GMC Sierra around. :D Always liked the look of the 90s GM trucks. That stemmed from a '90 Chevy W/T we had when I was very young. I liked the look of it, and I enjoyed watching the disc-cluster speedometer (always preferred non-needle...
