I'm replacing the original GP harness on my '93 Cheyenne, and have some questions about removing the factory one as it is hardwired in to some other spots I was not aware of. Specifically, on the driver's side, the hot lead from the GP side of the relay (passenger side terminal of the relay)...

I know this subject has been covered before, but wanted to share my own adventure if for anything else to have a reference online for when I lose my notes So on the 1993 dump truck that is nearing completion, I wanted to do the lift pump relay for obvious reasons. The previous owner had also...

Given how much conflicting misinformation is on the internet, I wanted to ask the crowd here, in particular our residential fuel expert @Will L. To be clear, I am asking only about use in farm and off road construction equipment. Dyed fuel in on road applications is illegal and not endorsed...

Stripped down the original engine that was in the dump truck when I purchased it. Every GM 6.5 I've owned has been a carnage candidate so I never paid much attention to the blocks, they self destructed. This had insane blow by when I purchased it and I knew the engine was toast, already had a...

Downpipe adapter that bolts to the stock downpipe and turbine size of a HX35 on the stock manifold. Bought new from Quadstar 2 years ago, barely 10 miles on it. No longer using stock manifolds so no use for it. $100 plus the ride. Includes mounting hardware

I feel extra stupid not being able to accomplish the most simple of tasks, but in an effort to avoid insanity by repeated effort with no result, I'm asking for help here. Truck is a 1993 K3500 Cheyenne 1 ton dump. Been picking away at it for the past 3 years, finally almost ready to get the...

Need to get both front and rear shocks for the '93 1 ton dump project. What was on the rig appears to be original. Don't need anything fancy, just something to work as designed for the truck's use. All suggestions welcome

Selling my Penninsular towing turbo and all intake piping plus aftermarket upper intake. Direct drop- in for factory side- mount turbo setup I purchased this turbo brand new back in 2019 and it's worked flawlessly on my P400 without issue. Selling because I need the money more than I need the...

Doing inner and outer tie rods on my 1 ton dump project today. Genuine TTX inner and outer tie rods from NAPA. Attaching to the center link, it seems that the hole in the threaded part of the tie rod and the castle nut don't line up at all. Torque spec is 46 ft/ lbs. After tightening down, the...

Came across this on the Fakebook, located in NC. For those who don't use Fakebook it's (according to the seller) a Navistar 6.5 short block with a forged crank, balanced rotating assembly and splayed mains. Apparently purchased by the seller at an auction from a defense contractor Asking price...

I have the same issue on several steel rims- one my front tractor tire, the other steel rims for the pickup. The inside of the rim is rusted enough that the bead won't seat fully so I have perpetual slow leaks. The tractor tire in particular bugs me as it's only 13 years old and is mostly kept...

After sitting on my shelf for 2 years, I finally got around to making this upgrade happen. Sadly the Sidewinder manifold is discontinued and no longer available from Banks, but hopefully this helps the few who already have one or are lucky enough to score a used one. There are several others...

For an upcoming build, I'm hoping to incorporate a CAC (intercooer) by using the DMax first generation rad & cac in tandem in the K3500's core support. I've read on other forums about this mod being done before, so I'm hoping someone with firsthand experience can chime in with any helpful...

I'm wondering if anyone knows for certain if there are any differences in the front brakes (caliper, hub, rotor, pads) between a GMT800 2500/3500 SRW and a 3500 dually/ cab & chassis I'm gathering parts for the GMT800 brake conversion for a GMT400 1 ton dump, and want the best braking...

Not sure how much one could recoup by selling the boat specific hardware, and the IPs would need adjustment for truck use, but may be a good deal for an engine...

As title states, wondering if anyone has used a decent and accurate kit they would recommend? Found this generic one on Amazon, but any hands on experience/ good reference is appreciated https://www.amazon.com/VCT-Diesel-Compression-Cylinder-Pressure/dp/B08KGQ7GQS

This thread is several years past due, so I hope to get it caught up to speed quicker than the build took in real time. I was going through a divorce and career change around the same time, which put posting everything here on the back burner. In some ways it feels that the build is still...

It's way too late for posting on the east coast, but I had to tow the truck home with the tractor and could use some guidance. I spent the past week/ 2 weekends swapping transmissions and fuel tanks on my truck. Finished tonight just after midnight. Only brought a 5 gallon can of diesel to...

I'm pulling the tranny this weekend to swap in a new one, but wanted to post here in case I'm missing anything before tearing into it and can't get parts after hours. Last April I did a new clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing, fork, fork pivot, and slave cylinder. Clutch was NAPA brand...

Howdy gang, So out of nowhere, at a very inconvenient time, my 4WD decided to stop working. Short history: T- case is original as far as I know. Drained and filled with new fluid last April. 4WD worked last Friday. Topped off gear oil in front diff as I had a long day of hauling ahead of me...
