    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Not much, fired it up (it complained, a lot) drove it to the other side of the yard, parked it there. That thing is such a piece of junk, I just cannot explain why I like it so much, something about the way these engines clatter away contentedly, it’s a very soothing rattle. 😂😂

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Seriously bro every man needs a bench vise, keep a look out for a good old one at garage sales or something, not sure I trust the newer ones as much. I’ve picked up several old 4” English-made Record vises for under $15 each, and I can get by with those but I’m still waiting for a 6” to show up...

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    I got a laugh for this but I’m serious, they made those, remember? 😂 I can’t see the vid so I’m just going off what I see in the pic, not sure that one is factory though? I mean obviously it would have to be modified to be used like that but that’s the generation when they made the (short...

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Oh it is pretty common to swap in a pump from an 04-06 BEW TDI, I just haven’t found one yet at the pick-n-pulls I frequent, someone always gets them first 😠😂

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Anything 04 and up does I believe, an 06 BRM does for sure.

    Not on the older ones nope, mine is an ‘03 with the ALH and the injection pump pulls from the tank. 😝 @dieselolds thank you very much!!

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    If you could find me some more info on where to get one of those I would be eternally grateful! I need something like that for my CAT filter on the Jetta, the old Napa filter head I have is kinda crappy and to have one with a primer would be VERY handy.

    Project FRANKENTRUCK 2nd Gen Ram / Cummins

    Now that is cool! Means you have to pull the case cover off though unless one has a sexy billet one like yours eh?

    Project FRANKENTRUCK 2nd Gen Ram / Cummins

    Beautiful! 🙂 Nice to hear an update. Curious, what’s the adjustable timing gear all about?

    Are my headlights too bright

    I was referring to the ones from Amazon you linked.

    Are my headlights too bright

    You’ll likely ignore this but, in my experience (and that of anyone else I've talked to) pretty much all aftermarket lights absolutely SUCK for output, since they’re designed to look “cool” and that’s about it. Have to go really high end to get anything that actually works for seeing at night...

    im new here and looking for information on a project i have in mind

    Not sure about the Burban but 96 isn’t a great year for GM trucks, first year of the Vortec and the 6.5’s went electronic then too. Not sure which engines yours have...

    What's available for a 4" stainless exhaust these days?

    If I ever get a custom stainless exhaust on anything, it’s going on in sections, with V-band flanges and clamps so it’s fully removable. Just something I saw a while back that I’ve been wanting to do.

    The dragging saga continues.

    Yeah that’s part of it, but I think mostly it’s just the fact that these forum search functions are about as useful as the search bar on Amazon. Which is, basically useless. 😝 Like I said, I’ve found using Google is the best way to get relevant results, and I spend a lot of time searching for...

    The dragging saga continues.

    Best to use Google. Type in whatever search terms you’re looking for, and throw this in the search bar with it: site:thetruckstop.us That way it uses Google to search the site here. The search bar here is useless, a common forum problem.

    Three different issues, opinions welcome

    Lol you’re funny. It’s a junk heap not worth being fixed. Miled out, rusted out, and beat up. I don’t think you’d attempt to restore it either... 🙄😂 So sorry for insulting your headlights, didn’t realize that meant war 🤣🤣
