    In the process

    You've signed up for a for a few more issues than flex plate / bushing alignment. ICT Billet has a great page with swap info and even references the differences in the crankshaft end dimensions. https://www.ictbillet.com/swap-guide/ls-swap-guide.html#cat-567

    2002 GMC 2500 HD cluster pin diagram

    Update: well the cluster worked fine for about a week or more, then truck quit while my wife was driving it, lucky she was only mile and a half away from home. She said low fuel light was on and stalled out, truck had close to 3/4 tank so fuel wasn't the issue. I managed to run it enough to get...

    2002 GMC 2500 HD cluster pin diagram

    Update: I found it thanks to the guy that re-did the cluster, I had the wrong pin, ground is actually the black / white tracer, further up in the connector, had lost its ground, re-grounded that wire and it all works now.

    2002 GMC 2500 HD cluster pin diagram

    Evening all, hope everyone is doing well. My 02 HD dash cluster quit working, gauges stopped working, no signal lights, back lights, DIC, CEL, nothing. google search tells me common problem and lots of places fix them. Sent it to an fleabay source, got one out of a pick n pull for temporary...

    05 LLY

    That paint scheme is bad a$$! Nice tie in with the skulls and bow tie on the hood. Love that front bumper too!

    Another 6.5 rebuild...

    Prolly would a been an on-road catastrophe eventually. It was a running, driving truck when I pulled the heads in February looking for the source of the coolant loss... had it not been for pulling the heads I would have driven it all summer. Wouldn't have towed heavy or far with it though, which...

    So much crack in this block the DEA was knocking on barn door!

    Another 6.5 rebuild...

    Cracked web and loose is good enough for winner? I thought I had to do more like, oh I dunno, send a rod through the side of the block burn some holes in pistons? :D I haven't done anything to the truck since spring except make up a wish list, been way too busy between work and house renovation...

    Another 6.5 rebuild...

    Cleaning out the barn, getting ready for winter projects and storage, decided to pull the oil pan off the 6.5 block. Within the inch deep sludge in the bottom was an object of some sort... surprise surprise surprise, it’s a main cap bolt, how’d that get there? 🤔

    2008 GMC Envoy Denali

    n8in8or Thank you for posting the projects and work you do, gives me direction and confidence for some of the work I want to take on! I am planning to rebuild the front differential in my 97 'Burb, looking at your posts and information you put up about it makes it easier to say "yup, I can get...

    97 Suburban differential disaster

    Thanks Ferm, I was thinking about having the driveshaft checked over by a shop because there is a driveline vibe from somewhere. With all the work I've done this summer, front shafts, wheel bearings, and now rebuilding the rear, new axle bearings too, I still get a steady low vibration at...

    97 Suburban differential disaster

    This had 274k miles on it, prolly about time it had little problem!

    99 Suburban 6.5 to 5.9 Cummins Swap

    Awesome looking Burb, can't wait to see this put together, more inspiration for my back-burnered conversion project... I use a set of factory service manuals to keep mine together and working, especially when it comes to wiring diagrams. Really useful when tracing out wiring behind dash or in...

    97 Suburban differential disaster

    From the "Don't worry about that noise, it's nothing" department... this has been a busy, busy summer. Between work making money, house renovation, new heat pump install, replacing windows, replacing carpet with flooring, and putting some work into the 'Burban, taking it off the plow truck...

    Not Going to Lie...

    You found the right place for 6.5 diesel info, as far as the swap plans go, these guys have a lot of knowledge from experience.

    Another 6.5 rebuild...

    No need for plane ticket, mine was hardly used in winter so it's not rusted out underneath. Heck the most it was driven in winter was last year when the 02 busted front wheel bearing. I keep the frame and underneath well coated with used oil and that helps keep any rust at bay. My truck is value...

    Another 6.5 rebuild...

    But at the end of the day I'm not too fond of Duramax design either so I'm probably shopping for a Cummins donor:smuggrin:

    Another 6.5 rebuild...

    I admit, I did mistake the pulley damper for the real thing... was replaced in 2014 and now all cracked up again. The numbers definitely make the point of spending money on a P400 smarter. I've got time on my side (I think..) so I'll push this off to the side of the barn and throw a tarp over...

    Another 6.5 rebuild...

    Yup, head is same as other side, cracked every one between the valves. #7 cylinder wasn't cracked, it's just reflection from way pic was taken. I made some numbers for what I wanted to do to this motor, over 9k on wish list, and prolly needs more... GM 6.5 Diesel "Refurbish" Budget...

    Another 6.5 rebuild...

    More work done, opened up drivers side of engine, looks like I found where coolant was disappearing. Rear of head had some orange color on head and gasket, head bolt out of that corner was rusted also. Cylinders, however, looked great, completely different from other side of engine, can even see...
