    Sub 2" Lift- stock 97 k1500 z71

    This is my first post- hope I'm not posting in the wrong place or beating a dead horse. After reading other threads, I gather that once you start cranking the TBs and adding blocks, things can get out of whack pretty fast. But I also don't want to do a real 4" lift or a BL or anything. I...

    Alright, I've dug and dug but can't seem to find something similar to this one. I've even tried using good ol Google. I have a 1996 Z71 with a 5.7 Vortec and pushbutton 4wd. When I push the button for 4HI it stays blinking, 4LO I get a solid light and you can hear the clunk plus when you...

    Does a frame-off restoration (removal of the cab, specifically) require the floor-mounted 4wd selector to be removed?

    Greetings all, I hope this the right section for this thread. I’m removing the ext cab on my ‘93 k3500. I was busy loosening the 4wd selector to ensure that there is nothing in the form of a linkage holding the transfer case to the cab. Can anyone clarify this, as i’m having trouble...

    4Wd Fuse Blowing, Tried Every Fix I Know

    Hello, on my 1993 K1500 the 4wd fuse will not stop blowing. I've read every post I could find on here and other websites, and nothing will do the trick. I was hoping that someone would have a fix before I spend another $150 on a Posi-Lok after spending $150 on a new electric actuator and t-case...

    94 K1500 blowing 4wd fuse on startup.

    Hi Folks, I'm guessing this is a short somewhere - but I wanted to ask for help as it sounds different than most things I've read about 4wd and fuses. The truck is a well maintained 1994 K1500 4.3L with automatic trans. The 4wd blew a fuse a few weeks ago, I replaced it, and all was good. A...

    4WD Won’t Shift Back to 2HI

    Howdy, I have the 4-button (2HI, 4Auto, 4HI, 4LO) system in my ‘98 K2500 Suburban and am having issues shifting from anything 4 back to 2HI. I have no problems shifting from 2HI to anything 4, but after driving in 4 for about 50-100yds the “Service 4WD” light appears in the cluster, although...

    Front Axle issue? Dumb question.

    Okay, I bought a 1999 k2500 and have been trying to get it running right. I jacked the front end up today and hand turned the tires, the entire axle shaft spun on both tires. It is in 2WD. Is this normal? I feel like maybe the bearings are bad? When I put the truck in 4WD, it violently shakes...

    Trans slips a bit at start of 1st gear ONLY in 4x4 LOW

    I have a fairly recently rebuilt 4L60E transmission in my '97 K1500 with 4.3L v6 (4x4 floor shift). It works perfectly in 2WD and 4WD high. In 4x4 Low, from a start, 1st gear seems to slip quite a lot to about 2mph before engaging fully. Given that the trans works perfectly when the transfer...

    LED Parking lights/Turn signals with one plug-in

    So, I got myself a set of LED parking light/turn signals for my 95 Sierra. They came with just one plug-in on each light. Of course, I tested them and yes, hyper-flashing. But when a bulb is put in the empty socket with the new lights they work as they should. I'm I going to have to create a...
