    2000 Silverado z71 refurb

    Yeah that’s what I figured. I assume the outer black piece is just a beauty trim that can be pulled out and seal with silicone behind it? Or should I seal the trim piece to the body?

    2000 Silverado z71 refurb

    A break in the rain today means I get to figure out where the water leak is coming from… So I pulled the cowling cover off, aside from being extremely dirty which I cleaned up as best I could, the cover over the air inlet seems to be intact. I’ve seen others that were just a plastic cover...

    2000 Silverado z71 refurb

    Well the rain today added something to my project list and may change my priorities. I was planning to look at the blower motor, controller and resistor but located a pretty decent water leak on the passenger side. It seems it’s coming from maybe the base of the windshield on the passenger...

    2000 Silverado z71 refurb

    Got my phone mount installed. Panavise in dash metal bracket uses factory dash screws behind the beauty trim bezel. The magnetic charger mount used to be made by another company but looks like they got bought out by scosche.

    2000 Silverado z71 refurb

    ~$200 they are listed as 99-06 Silverado ext cab. the fronts weren't terrible. There's 2 nylon straps with buckles that run front to back under the seat. Then there's 2 elastic straps on each side with a plastic hook that I believe are supposed to run under the side and hook to each of those...

    2000 Silverado z71 refurb

    I was successful in getting the front seat covers installed. Not sure I’m a fan of the center console condom thing. But we’ll see. So far I like that the seat covers don’t move when getting in and out of the truck . Next gotta work on the rear seat. Then steam clean the seat belts.

    2000 Silverado z71 refurb

    Actually the brake/tail move to the bottom and the turn and reverse move up. And no reflector. Interesting how different they are. At first glance all GMT 800 look the same until they switched the pickups to the all red housing. Interesting the dually never got those red ones. My buddies 06...

    2000 Silverado z71 refurb

    So maybe it was a z71 thing? Doesn’t explain my dually though. Yeah the suv and pickup invert the brake/tail with the turn signal I believe and they are a bit wider in shape compared to the taller shape of the pickups.

    2000 Silverado z71 refurb

    Yeah that’s interesting. These are definitely original. I’m the original owner of the truck and know for sure they were never swapped. I found an old pic of my dually and it had the same design. I’m not the original owner of that truck but I will say the black trim ring finishes it off nicely...

    2000 Silverado z71 refurb

    Interesting. If I remember correctly my 2006 Silverado dually had the same design tail lights is this one with the raised black trim. These housings aren’t terrible I think I was looking for an easy way out to get some clean looking housings. I’ll just plan to put in some elbow grease and...

    2000 Silverado z71 refurb

    Well I ordered replacement tail lights and headlights/marker housings. Headlights and markers look ok. But the tail lights are missing the black trim around the housings like the originals? When installed they look like crap. They don’t line up well at all. Anyone have any luck finding...

    This was a non z71 I found at a local dealer and sorta got the idea to 2 tone mine. The biggest difference is the door panel also has the dark gray for the door lock panel where mine is still the original tan color.

    ORVietVet 2004 Silverado K2500HD Crew Cab 6.0

    That’s what I thought but when I was researching it I found some non z71 Suburban’s with a two tone gray/light gray combo. This was the original color combo in ours

    ORVietVet 2004 Silverado K2500HD Crew Cab 6.0

    Very nice truck. Well cared for. I always really liked that color interior. When I got the Yukon xl 2500 for the dmax swap it had the tan interior. I started pondering swapping over to the charcoal color. But I tried a door panel swap and determined the color combo seemed off to me. I...

    Tried/Considered Hellwig Bars

    I installed my first hellwig big wig sway bars front and rear on my dually when I got the truck camper. That thing handled like it was on rails. Unbelievable how stable something that big could be. That proved to me that hellwig was no joke. Next rig was 2014 Jeep JK. Hellwig bars front and...

    Also drove it to the office yesterday. Fits right in nestled amongst the Audi’s and Tesla’s.
