    Miklo's 2001 Silverado 2500HD Build Thread

    To give you folk some insight about how my brain works here's a run down if my thought process. I got to replace the heater core, which involves removing the dash. So I might as replace all the blend door actuators and Will probably repaint the dash and trim with some SEM paint while I'm at it...

    I appreciate the info. Yeah I think after I decided to go full-ham on ordering parts I did see that it was a misfire code. But it didn't much matter by then, since *spoiler alert* I'm replacing all the coils, spark plugs, and wires along with new heads and lifters.

    Speaking of the transfer case. I did receive it. And installed it. Of course when I pulled the drive shafts, the u-joints needed to be replaced. I replaced those with Moog parts. I also replaced the slip yoke since the transfer case company offered to send a new one in case the old one was...

    My daughter decided to hit a parked car for the second time in as many months. So i decided to humble her and make her drive my truck. It has no backup camera so it forces her to really go slow and watch her corners and just be extra cautious. Two weeks ago she tells me it has a check engine...

    The truck has no heat or AC, but I figured I could tough out the Texas "winter" and take the truck to the lease for the start of deer season. Bagged a nice buck opening weekend so it made the trip on the truck that much sweeter. After that my nephew offered to drive me to the lease since he...

    Took the truck and got it aligned. And it drives pretty well now. The tires were the cheapest all terrain tire that Discount Tire had to offer. They ride pretty well and overall I'm satisfied. Without testing out the truck on any long-distance trip I drove 100 miles to east Texas and picked up...

    I then tried to tackle the 4WD light. I ordered the transfer case switch fir it since that's a common issue. When it came in, I went to install and found that someone had swapped out the electeonic transfercase to a manual 261 transfercase. Presumably to get the truck down the road since the...

    Thanks. It wouldn't have been my first pick but it's the one that happen to hit my daughter's car. But the color has grown on my especially since it isn't as common of a color.

    The truck came with a service 4WD light and ABS light for free. So I decided to tackle the ABS sensors first and swap over the steel wheels to the stock Aluminum ones while doing so. I replaced the wheel sensors and saw the brakes could be could be changed on the front. It had one decent front...

    Should I?

    haha. Yeah well... there was a lot wrong and a lot things that should just replaced out of caution due to high mileage. But the cam and heads and all that go along with it are more for smiles over function. Admittedly, i think of something new almost daily that i should do while im having shit...

    Should I?

    decided to go for it. Bought the TSP stage 2 cam, after reading reviews and verifying. Also replacing the lifters and trays and rockers and springs. Planning on a tune after, just have to research one for my area. Hoping for an extra 75-100HP. Realistically I should do the main and pistons,

    Should I?

    A bit of back ground. I have stock 2001 Chevy Silverado 2500hd 6.0L 4x4. Most will be a daily driver with minimal towing. Towing will involve moving my mahindra 4500 (45 hp) tractor around, which will be my heaviest load. I have a ton of work ahead of me and will be replacing a ton of things...

    Thanks everyone! My daughter did suffer a concussion, which we are handling the personal injury through the insurance. My neighbor is an insurance lawyer, so he gave us helpful tips on that aspect. Otherwise my daughter is fine now. As far as the Truck, the brakes were exactly as ORVietVet...

    So my daughter was rear ended in my one year old car. The person that rear-ended my daughter was driving a 2001 Chevy 2500HD, which he was on the way to sell for $1800. Long story short, i got the truck and $3000 for the damage on my car. It was neglected probably the last 10-15 years, because...
