    P0200 and P0300 engine codes after Rear Main Seal repair.

    Agreed, though I'm not familiar enough yet with 800's to pinpoint one. I *think* there's one at the passenger rear of the engine/trans that may have been disconnected when the trans came out? The glue on those range switches I believe has to be heated a little bit for it to separate from the...

    2004 RCSB 4x4 - The Mail Truck

    It was stenciled in a nice fancy font on the rear fender of my '82 FLH, white on the flat black, just under the taillight. :) Probably still have the stencil around here somewhere.. though the meaning of the letters has changed with the times. Richard

    2004 RCSB 4x4 - The Mail Truck

    Can't speak for the GMT900 stuff as I've never owned one, only driven a few as work trucks in the past (3500 so-called HD's) On the GMT800's, the only reason my 2006 SS came with drums on the rear is because it's a RWD model (the only version available in 2006) with the 9.5" 14 bolt. If it had...

    Gauge cluster replacement...no sure where to post.

    Yep, that's the extra gauge at the bottom left on your new cluster. The heavier models got them - 2500/3500, but also the Silverado SS's, too. Richard

    2004 RCSB 4x4 - The Mail Truck

    Correct, the "1092" pads are for the dual piston caliper used over quite a few models. When I did the '06 Intimidator, I went with Wagner Thermo-Quiet ceramics, QC1092 Richard

    Replacement for G80 limited slip

    I'd pop the cover and inspect for broken parts before buying the rebuild kit. Richard

    Work out of my garage/driveway-Entire tool set for sale

    Sounds like a good test plan. My hunch FWIW is you'll find it's the sender, since it set the code. A bad stepper motor causing the gauge to read low will trigger the low fuel warning on the DIC even with a full tank, I've experienced that myself in the '06 - and the remaining range display...

    Factory touchscreen nav current dvd

    It would take knowing whose maps they used and what format they're in. If you're handy with stuff like that, pop the disc into a PC and see what you can see. There was a small hacking effort on the discs for the Mopar stuff, but I think all they did was eliminate the "in motion" feature that...

    2004 RCSB 4x4 - The Mail Truck

    Sorry for all the individual replies - there's no "multi-quote" like I'm used to on the GMT400 forums. So the future wife at the time had a '93 Suburban (I'll note with the appropriate '94-up grille upgrade)? Nice! This was her own doing, or with your involvement? My wife drove my old...

    2004 RCSB 4x4 - The Mail Truck

    Cheater pipe? I'll guess for the ball joints? Been there, done that!!! IIRC I used the jack handle, slipped over my extra long Craftsman breaker bar. Didn't help that the ball joint press set I borrowed from the auto parts had been badly abused and the swiveling tip on the screw was damaged...

    2004 RCSB 4x4 - The Mail Truck

    With the Silverado SS it'll be all 2006, and possibly 2005 though 2005 had AWD and RWD choices. The dual piston caliper has been discussed a bunch on the SS forums typically referred to as upgrading to the "Tahoe brakes" - before they were available on the SS. I'd be really surprised if the...

    Factory touchscreen nav current dvd

    Welcome, No personal experience with it but in general, support for those units lasts a few years at best. 2016 is actually more than I'd expect considering the GMT800 line's full production ran only through 2006 with a few carryover models afterwards - 10 years is a pretty good run. I don't...

    Gauge cluster replacement...no sure where to post.

    Sure, just didn't know if it talked to the PCM -> gauge cluster, or was analog like the older stuff. If it's the sender I know exactly what to expect - a repeated swing of low end to high end on the reading. If it wasn't cold and pouring rain I'd be out there messing with it now. For another...

    Gonna Interview Again

    I can understand them wanting to farm out the initial calls, but maybe they're unaware of how out-of-touch an operation like that can be with their particular industry and the types of professionals that fill those positions. Richard

    Gauge cluster replacement...no sure where to post.

    Hmm, does the sender communicate with the PCM? I wouldn't have thought it did, but I'll throw the ol' Launch CRP123 on it (I still chuckle when I see the word "CRAP" in the model #) and see what it thinks. Richard

    2004 RCSB 4x4 - The Mail Truck

    Pretty sure those are the same brakes stock on our '06 SS, if you don't wanna have to tell them you have a GMT900 just to get brakes. I mean, the shame of claiming a GMT900. ;) Pic is from when I did upper/lower ball joints on the truck but should give a nice view of the 2 piston caliper and...

    Gauge cluster replacement...no sure where to post.

    I've still got to take the cluster out of my wife's '06 SS and do all the steppers and bulbs. Everything's fine except the oil pressure gauge has decided to go into constant sweep mode, left to right, left to right, over and over. Every once in a while when it goes left it will give you the...
