    Oh WOW. I LOVE 8' bed trucks in the 3/4 ton variety! That's a pretty rare combination. I'm guessing you have 4.10s?

    Stutaeng's 1999 Silverado

    No truck "update". I'm working on a large home renovation project and using the truck for hauling materials: some misc. roofing materials (got 38 squares of shingles items delivered), 6' patio door, 6' window, self leveling compound, trim, tools and old flooring haul off... Old girl just keeps...

    I’m having an issue with my transmission when starting the truck.

    You have to manually shift the gears? Is that what you are saying? And then you get to a stop, the truck will shift automatically? Strange! Never heard of those symptoms. That thing sounds like an automatic transmission, but identifies as a manual...

    Miklo's 2001 Silverado 2500HD Build Thread

    https://ppepower.com/products/heat-sound-insulator-firewall They sell this firewall noise insulation blanket designed for the diesels, but also works for the gas models. Looks like it fits 1500, 2500/2500HD pickup models and even the SUVs...

    Miklo's 2001 Silverado 2500HD Build Thread

    Yes, perfect time to reloom the harness! I did mine initially, but in hindsight, I should have waited until my engine came out. https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/how-to-re-loom-your-ecu-engine-transmission-wiring-harnesses.143808/ Ditto on painting the frame while engine is out!

    FW_Z71Burb's 2002 Suburban Z71

    Correct. Another GMT800 destroyed probably to sacrifice for an old rusty POS in the name of the legendary LS drivetrain...oh well. How are your headlights/tailights? If you want to get those, and get them to me, I can sand them and shoot them with 2k auto urethane clear whenever I do my...

    FW_Z71Burb's 2002 Suburban Z71

    Oh dang, that Z71 looks to be in great condition... Your 2002 Z71 has the lights on the rear door panels, right? I think that was the last year of that. I've been meaning to add that, along with the footwell lights on Suburbans.

    On BAT - 37k-Mile 1999 GMC Sierra 1500 SLT Extended Cab Z71 4×4

    Very nice. The 3 doors were only produced in 1999, I'm pretty sure.

    FW_Z71Burb's 2002 Suburban Z71

    Maybe also the oil pick-up tube o-ring if you also drop the pan? For the RMS, there's an alignment tool to center that cover on. I have the SacCity version rear one https://saccitycorvette.com/products/alignit-pro-series-rear-main-tool , then last year I bought the Amazon-special aluminum...

    I dig that... All you need is a Harbor Freight paint gun now :)

    Engine Color Schemes! Post em' up!

    Also, this video shows an easy way to do it: That's basically what I did. @ORVietVet The technical data sheets for the regular oil-alkyd stuff sold everywhere shows the temperature rating of 200F. "Technically," one should be using the "high temperature" paint versions meant for these...

    Engine Color Schemes! Post em' up!

    Oh, I see. How about Orange Chevy? Kinda like this: I like the aluminum covers left mill-finish looking, with the valve covers matching the block as an option. Looks very refined and classy to me. I've seen where EVERTHING get's painted and that just looks horrible to me. Looks too...

    Engine Color Schemes! Post em' up!

    I did a black rustoleum for my 06 Suburban LQ4 refresh job: And black again for the other engine I built. Gen IV 6.0: So black for me :)

    Stutaeng's 1999 Silverado

    Thanks. I will look through your 55 build thread. You are saying DON'T use #80, #120 and a DA? Is that for the paint removal or body filler steps? Point taken on only using #600 block sanding. That's what I did on my 04 Suburban hood (dry though) before basecoat and it turned out fine. And I...

    Heater Blower Recommendation & Warnings?

    It's been maybe 18 months that I replaced it. My previous blower only made squealing when the temperature was below 40F-ish. I didn't notice any different fan noise when I replaced it with the new one, no. Let me check which part numbers I used... Edit: here's the link. Not sure why I bought...

    Rock Auto Discount Codes-Post 'em Up

    Oh geez @Mikloangelo ! I always "assume" all members here know of this, but recently another new member mentioned he didn't even know Rockauto existed...[crying emoji] Can we lobby to create or move this most to a sticky? Or I guess, do we even gave stickies on this forum? If not, I'll try to...

    Heater Blower Recommendation & Warnings?

    I've bought a 4 Seasons blower and blower resistor for my 06. The blower was imported but the motor resistor was made domestically. The old motor was making a noise, which I thought was a bearing. In the process of replacing the motor, I accidentally shorted out the blower resistor, so I had to...

    Stutaeng's 1999 Silverado

    Probably no paint experts here, but I'll ask anyways: I'm coming up with a repaint schedule or procedure for this this truck. One of the things that's kinda ambigous watching the paint/body work YT channels I watch is: production settings they'll go with 2k urethane primer/sealer/surfacers vs...
