So I bought my 96 GMC Yukon 5.7 4dr with the electronic 4x4 (switch on dash) a couple months back. The previous owner made it clear that the 4x4 doesn't work, after all it was a project truck at the time he sold it to me. I'm just now getting around into working on the 4x4 and the previous owner...
Hi! I’m curious if someone else has ran the lt4 hotcam in an l31 with a 4l80e and as changed the torque converter from the stock one. I’ve read the stock converter does like 1500-1800 stall and that the lt4s are better with a higher stall. I’m not sure what a good one would be. It’s a 1997 k2500...
Introducing my '00 GMC Yukon Denali. Owned by our family her whole life and maintained by my parents with pride. Lots of childhood memories in those third row seats. Bought from my dad and shipped across the country to use as my daily driver.
She sat in the garage for a long while, so I've...
Howdy all. Did an exhaust leak test on my 90 K1500 4x4 5.7 and found multiple leaks everywhere. Talked to a few shops and from the ballpark estimates, I’ve decided to do it myself.
Ordered a set of those PG Powergo short headers from AMZ. Supposedly they will bolt up to the OE collector...
I’ve got a ‘92 Chevy K1500 I’ve done some research collecting answers. She’s pretty level 6” wheel gap in the rear 6.5” wheel gap in the front. I’m wanting to lower her without having to notch the frame nor take extra unnecessary steps. From what I read I can probably lower it 4” front and back...
Hi everyone,
I have a 1997 Suburban which has a vortec 5.7 and a style of exhaust which has two pipes that are separate leading into the muffler. It looks like the picture below
What I'm wondering is if a slightly newer exhaust system from a 99' would be intercompatible AND allow for me to...
Hey Everyone, my name is Ashton from Iowa. I recently acquired a fairly clean ‘89 3/4 ton Chevy with a stock 350 small block. It currently has the 3 speed manual which I find to be horrendous for anything above 55mph. I’m looking into the idea of a 4l80 swap and was wondering if anyone has a...
Hey, y’all! I’m trying to rebuild the front end on my ‘94 K1500 pickup and I’m having the hardest time finding lower control arms for this thing. I knew it would be hard but I didn’t know it’d be close to impossible. I’ve looked aftermarket and OEM. What are thoughts on pulling and maybe...
Im new to all this and just wanted to know what wheel sizes i can run on my 95 k1500. It has a 4/6 drop and theres slight rubbing on the front but im going to get my fenders rolled soon.
Hello all.
I am purchasing a 92 K1500 5 speed Manual with a 350 small block, off of someone who is moving away. The pevious owner removed the front drive shaft and the guy I'm getting it from said he believes the U-joint probably went bad. He mentioned the shifter does seem to get stiff/stuck...

I recently purchased a 1988 Cheyenne K2500 4X4 and a couple of days ago the truck stalled while idling at a red light and the power seems low when accelerating. I got home and noticed the SES light came on so I checked for any codes and I got code 51 which says there an error with PROM. I...
Howdy,
I just got an 1988 Chevy 3500 4x4 regular cab. I want to put the biggest tires and new rims on this truck but I am not sure what I can get away with. Currently 235/85/R16 tires.
Any direction is greatly appreciated.
I have a 1994 Chevy K2500 with the 5.7 TBI and have been having issues with my fuses lately. Used a test light and there’s no power going to my “htr/ac, brake, 4x4, or crk” fuses. I have little experience with electrical and any ideas/suggestions would be helpful With these fuses not working, I...
Hi everyone--I read the sticky about transmission compatibility, and I'd like to ask for input about what to do, what it'll cost me, and what the problems might be. Apologies in advance for a long post and thank you if you're reading it.

Let me elaborate, I just bought a 1998 Chevy crew cab long bed 4x4, well it used to be a dually and the previous owner left the dually axle and the dually leaf springs, I might sound dumb but if I’m not mistaken the dually trucks had bigger or at least different style leaf springs then the other...

Hey, brand new to the forum and thus this is my first thread/post. So go easy on me ;)
I have a 1999 Suburban K1500 5.7L V8 at ~168k miles. I'm currently chasing a vibration/rumble and I'm falling down the rabbit hole.
I noticed a couple weeks ago (drive in to work was normal/good) that on my...
99 tahoe
4wd autotrac
5.7
No Service 4x4 light
So the truck drives just fine under its own power but has a loud rattling or hissing sound while the light on the dash says 2wd or 4hi. It won't engage 4lo or autotrac but I know for sure the sound is drivetrain related as it only happens when the...
