How many miles do you put on in a year? If you can use up the tires in 5-7 years, run michelin. If it doesnt run a ton of miles, consider something else. Michelins do not age as well as others, get all dryrotted and crackly much sooner. Im sure garage storage and possibly armor-all might help...

Me personally I'd investigate the leak, and it sounds like the hoses are letting go at the aluminum crimp, so hopefully just new hoses and should be good to go. If for peace of mind you end up changing the pump, I'd like to buy the old one. Make sure and research the EVO system and whether or...

Ferm, what design was the factory 94-95 Suburban? They looked quite a bit different than the trucks. I went ahead and snagged a pair last time I was in the pick and pull yard up near the Idaho farm (3 great pull yards within 40 miles, versus one yard local that is overpriced here in KS, so I hit...

pump I dont think ever ran out, just low. I had put fluid in it after it sat for a while. Fired up, drove across the yard, hit brakes, pump started to growl, I shut off and topped off. Fired up and quiet again. hot, low idle in a parking lot it will whine slightly, and steering is slightly...

Hey all, I have fluid leaking out of the steering gear output on the 06 Duramax, and frankly have never been impressed with the performance of the system compared t a GMT400. What is the best stuff quality'& longevity wise for a 06 C3500 that is never going to have bigger than 235/85r16 tires...

I guess count me biased the other way. :) stock for stock I've had way better luck out of the DS4. Cold starts, MPG, low end torque (hill holding ability in 5th gear) lower cost of ownership, longevity, etc. have all favored the DS4 for me.

I threw my back out bad August of 2019, finally back to "normal". Best thing I did was walk in some good shoes. helps build up muscles to stabilize things. Good diet and healthy living helped a ton too. went from barely able to walk to the mailbox to carrying tractor weights again. Still not...

Any updates on this? I have a 95 K3500 6.5 5spd 4wd that is twitching, and I just replaced the speed sensor on the end of the transfer case. no change. Im suspecting the VSSB, as this issue popped up all of a sudden, and I cant feel any wear in the rear bearing or bushing. What are the...

how did this turn out?

So where can a guy check to see if a vendor is a certified Delco reseller? most of my 60Gs have been swiped off ebay, but a few have been off rockauto.

Im really not liking this 20 minute editing window...lol Anyways, I think the 15801087 is the panel behind the headlight with the rib that is plainly seen in pic 2 and pic 4, and the one that the foam strip is resting against the rib in pic 1. Is this correct?

Hey all, I'm trying to get the OEM air filter setup put back together, and I wanted to check with anyone who has a known complete setup to check and see what I am missing. I know I'm missing the 15834077. I think I have the 15801087, but the one I can't really identify is the 15258717. Is...

I thought the insulator was NLA, but I hope im wrong.

How many of those brackets can you get ahold of? As far as the airbox, I only have a half dozen on hand but I dont plan to quit buying 6.5Ls, so the more the merrier. :) I'll stand back in case a new member wants it for theirs, but if you dont sell it I'll probably be interested.

@ak diesel driver do you recall who you bought yours from?

Dragging this thread up again, buying my first power set of GMT800 style mirrors, 4th set of GMT800 mirrors total. (love the manual ones! :) ) Rigging up my new to me 95 K3500 with GMT800 style power mirrors, as the factory power left side is missing glass, right wont adjust, and of course being...

@WarWagon 2250 RPM in 5th, 4.10 gears, roughly 65 mph seems to run fine, stock vac system. Around the big cities I'll twist her tail a little, but once out of the crazy zone I'll drop speed back.

Hey all, On my 06 it appears they have been in it before, and around the power steering pump things dont look quite right. (cables rubbing on intercooler pipe) Does anyone have a 06-07 that has not been messed with that they wouldnt mind snapping pics of what fastens to the plastic clip on the...

Love that grade braking coming into SLC on I80. ;) NV4500 in 4th, a/c on, and the GM turbo will choke down 20K... lol Basically drive with a tender foot and an eagle eye on the temps, and a guy can keep it alive. Dont be afraid to throw the 4 ways on and get down to 1st gear if you have to to...

Ya'll missing the "budget" part of this. :) IMO find a good GM8 for cheap, put the wicked wheel on, and retain the vacuum wastegate control. For extreme budget, just keep what you have and keep vac control. I might be the only one that feels this, but if a guy is running the GM turbo, the vac...
