Just don't pull out on them. Pull the whole cover foward...

Jongo88

On my gmc you pull the plastic pins above the tag mount and just pull it off. The side clips just pull off.

Jongo88

I replaced the sensor today.. What a PITA that was. I hope none of you have to change it.
You have to remove the dissy and the fuel lines and it is still hard. I got it though. Time will tell if it works.

Jongo88

I hope you don't find transmisson fluid it it...

Jongo88

I just had to replace my cap and rotor. I had a Duralast Gold that lasted about 4 months. I replaced them with Accel cap and rotor. The Accel has brass contacts.

Jongo88

Well it's almost done... I can't find the bolts for my step bars. The hardest part was the hitch. lol.. Well it was. But it is all done but the step bars. So as soon as I can find some bolts I'll get some pictures. I think the GMC is easier than the s10.. You don't have to cut the front bumper or dr...

Jongo88

I'll have to get back with you with this. I have not got to the bumpers as of yet. I had the hardest time with the bed. But it was dark out and I had a very hard time finding the holes to get the bolts started. As for the instructions. I used the ones that came with the kit but the BDS pictures are ...

Jongo88

The bolts that go through the core support. I had to use bigger washers. The bolts that I took out had the washers like made to them. They won't come over the threads.
I now have the bed on and lined up. The fuel fill is done too. I ran out of day light. I should be done tomorrow.

Jongo88

The cab is lifted.... Had to work today. I got home at 2:30.. The only problem is the washers for the core bolts are to small. The ones on the bolts that came out won't come off the bolts. I have bigger washers though so not a problem. I would never trust them little washers they give you... I probl...

This is the only forum that I have a very hard time searching...
Thank you for the help... This looks so much better...

Jongo88

I have read and read and I'm lost.. They say to remove the blinkers. The sonoma headlights are made with the blinkers. So I guess I remove the headlights. They say to trim the valence. I don't have a valence. So I guess I have to trim the bumper. They give you 3 hoses and a peice of pipe. I don't kn...

Jongo88

That's the one... You know the before the install worry... I just was wondering how the bumper fits. The Sonoma is one peice.

Jongo88

That part is the same.. The bumper cover is what I'm worried about.

Jongo88

I have a 2002 Sonoma.. What do you have??

Jongo88

Is there any difference between a s10 and a Sonoma? The front ends are different... I ordered my body lift so I can join the club. I read up on the install online and they talk about the Chevy and say nothing about the GMC...

Jongo88

I'm no help.. I'm still rockin the stock ones..

I run a 180 with no problems... But I live in Florida.

Jongo88

Well guess what... The code came back.... I have a Scan Gauge 2 now.. lol. It is a PO 327 Knock sensor.... What will cause it? I will clear it and see what happens....

Jongo88

A clip that looks like a "C". It holds the axle in..

Jongo88

That cross shaft wore at all? That is what holds tha axle from going in so the c-clip can't come out. Is the end of the axle still there?

Jongo88

Have you had any work done in the past? There is no way for the c-clip to just fall out. If it did there is something wrong. Look at the spider gear on that side to make sure it is not broke. Look at the diff lock pin to make sure it is there and in the right place. Look at the spider gear on that s...

Jongo88

Very good info.. Thanks big time.. There is no way to see it in the truck...

Jongo88

There is a snap ring on the cv shaft and the little axle shaft on the pass side. Most likley the little shaft will come out with the cv shaft.
Does this help?

You really want to know????

Jongo88

If you want good ball joints get them here. I had these in my old Blazer for 200,000 miles and they are still good. I have them in my Jimmy.
I now have them in my crew after the Moogs wore out in 18,000 miles.

The last set of moog joints I got were made in China... I had to change them out allready...

Jongo88

That's high on the cv shafts and the hubs....

Jongo88

I picked mine up at the junk yard for 5 bucks. Just get one from a two wheel drive.... I replaced every vacuume pod too. The main one that was full of tranny fluid was the top one by the gas peddle. The other one that was full is the one in the glove box. I got all of them for 10 bucks.

Jongo88

I have 31/10.50's 373 gears and I get 16 city and 19.5 highway.
I have a ScanGauge 2 and it don't lie...lol.

Jongo88

That is a beautiful truck. That is my favorite color!!

Jongo88

This is a two peace drive shaft. It won't fit a crew cab.

Jongo88

I think you got a good deal. I bought a 2002 with 52,000 miles for 5,500.

Jongo88

Bad radiator cap? bad intake gasket? There is air in the system.

Jongo88

Everything was 255.00

Jongo88

Sorry to hear that. If you think the bearing is bad and you have been driving it for awile you will need a axle kit. In this kit is a new axle, bearing, seal and new studs. You will need to get two things of oil and a new gasket. It takes about a hour to do the job if you get the right kit to start ...

Jongo88

Just another update.. My parts came in Tuesday. I got home from work at 4:00 and started the job. I replaced the front diff seals and cv shafts new upper and lower ball joints and new hubs and to top it all off new brakes. Drove it to work Wednesday and I hear a grinding comming from the back.

I had the ball joints on my old Blazer for years and never replaced them again. The Blazer had 240,000 miles on it when I sold it. it is still going today.

I messed up the cv boots myself. I tweeked the t bars just a little to much then went four wheelin and they got full of mud. I was going to wait until winter to change them out with the ball joints but the hub want let me...

Jongo88

I know... But.. I don't like the China made hubs they have around here. I'm going to do brake pads, Hubs, cv shafts and upper and lower ball joints all at the same time. If I have to buy a rotor too, oh well. I'm going to check it every day. If it gets to bad I will have to so something else. The pl...

Jongo88

On the way home yesterday my right hub started talking to me... I ordered two hubs and four ball joints today. I jacked it up and the pass side has a little play in it. It don't make noise when I turn it by hand. I drive 40 miles round trip to work four day's a week and I need it to last two weeks. ...

Looks good.. I'm not a fan of the chrome fender trim though.

I have a 34 ft. SeaRay sedan bridge. I keep it on the saint johns river. We travel the river and go to the Silver Glen spring and stay for a week. I just came back from a 9 day trip to the spring.

Jongo88

I too have the full size bump stops. I have this big bump in the road on the way to work. I use to have to slow down to 25 so my front tires would not rub. When I put the full size bump stops in I could go 35 before they would rub. Then I put the bilsteins on and now I have been up to 50 and no rub....

Jongo88

I know you are going to post us some pictures...

Jongo88

Thanks man.. I drove it to work and back home and it got me wondering.
More drive time will tell. I like the little power though. I hope I get more mpg...

Jongo88

I just put 89 oct in my truck and it seems like I have more power. It seems to idle better. I have not floored it but just driving it I don't have to hold the gas peddle down as much.. Am I nuts?

Jongo88

160 miles and still no light???

Jongo88

Thanks. I will keep that in mind. I will get the code.. I hope there won't be a next time but we know there will be....

Jongo88

The thing is that there is no problems. It runs perfict. The ses light just came on. When that happens there is eather a problem or a bad sensor. So when the scanner came up with a knock sensor that to me means it is bad. I think it's just a matter of time before it comes back on. Bad gas will make ...

Is it in a water jacket?

They all do it if your on the brakes alot. City driving.. I have seen alot of them like that.

Welcome to the site. Looks like a nice truck. All the info you need is here.

I'm not for shure but I would think it is the same. It looks the same. The only thing that won't work are the tails. The link you show above is for turn with fogs. Yes they should be the same. And my I add. Not to call you a kid but it is so good to see you working on your own truck. Kids today don'...
