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...

I want to replace the passenger side lower control arm on my truck. The area where the ball joint gets pressed in is so worn that ball joints don't stay in anymore. Shops have been welding them in for me, but too often than not the idiot doing the job doesn't take the grease fitting orientation...

Found this on craigslist about an hour from me, figured someone may be interested in it especially the trans as it seems early model years are not interchangeable with newer ones https://rochester.craigslist.org/pts/d/rochester-65-detroit-diesel/7341768448.html if the link expires the listed...

Howdy gang, As the thread implies, I've got some sloppy steering and could use some guidance. Long story short, my Saginaw 800 box was leaking from the pitman shaft. I pulled the box, and when trying to remove the seals trashed the pitman shaft bearing. Since I could only find the bearing in a...

Turned on my lights today and the illumination lights for the cluster aren't on. All dummy lights on the cluster work, high and low beams work fine. I had this happen once before, and noticed a bad connection at the headlight switch. Jiggling the connection fixed it temporarily and I forgot...

As the title states, My ABS light is on, but when using GMTDScan Tech, the only DTCs I get are 46 and 88 I know DTC 88 is related to TDCO, that's another story for another thread. Thought a local mechanic with the correct scanner set the timing, but according to Scan Tech actual and desired...

As the title implies, I'm attempting to set the timing on my 1995 K2500 OBD-1. I purchased the GMTD Scan Tech software and 12-pin to USB cable and have everything installed and connected. When I attempt to connect, the following is displayed: Initializing communication (green light) COM3 Port...
