Hello Fellow Truck Guys,
'95 K3500 dually, crew cab, 6.5TD, NV4500. Bought her in '07, took me a year to find her given the configuration. Cheyenne version so bench seat, rubber floor mat, no power windows/locks. Paint is showing its age, so I'm not likely to post up a pic. Maybe in a few years I'll look into some fresh paint. A flatbed will replace the factory box before that happens.
Currently looking for donor trucks for factory bucket seats, center console, and power windows/locks. If you have a bench seat, then you know how it feels to want for a center console. A previous owner put in an alarm system, which I do not like, but it came with keyless entry. Recently one of the lock solenoids died. Instead of digging it out and trying to find a replacement, I intend to swap in factory keyless entry and power windows. I've found a how-to walk-through on the web, so it is doable.
Before the creature comforts, I need to rebuild the front suspension. While I'm tearing it apart, I'm going to swap in the GMT800 front brakes for a much wanted brake upgrade. I found the how-to on this web site and I'm looking to revive it. Hopefully I can contribute to the how-to. I'm hoping the authors of that forum thread are still active on here. I would love to hear if they still have their trucks and if so how the brake swap is still working for them years later. The thread seemed to just go silent, so getting some closure/feedback would be great.
The square body Chevy truck is hot now, prices keep going up and up. The GMT400 is in line to become the next hot ticket. The 3/4 and 1 ton trucks are already going up in price as 'affordable' work trucks. It's a great time to be a GMT400 owner.
Thanks.
