Too far , yes. Within the range of operation is acceptable. Ride height adjustment.

I added weld to my stops so that the tires did not rub

Throttle body cleaner and a rag. I shove the rag down to catch most of the dirty stuff and pull it back out of the intake. Can be a little tricky to hold the throttle open while spraying. The wet rag also helps to wipe the big stuff off the throttle blade and body. Then a final spray down before sta...

Cool trip down memory lane

thx

Check and clean the throttle body. The IAC passage may be dirty?

Stock wheel info

Lots on our website

Check the vacuum hoses for dry rot behind the brake booster going to the vacuum canister in the driver side fenderwell. Make sure the hose is attached to the nipple just under the fender lip.

Check out the selection from Nitto sometime. I have moved from BFG to Nitto. Looking forward to my next set being Ridge Grapplers

No. Removing the fuse disables activation.

Check for a worn clock spring. (steering wheel)

Test port is easy. Or try the ELM27 / Torque and a smart phone?

Pinion bearing on rear axle? Mine had soft shims that squished out on the stock rear. I went to the more robust ZR2 rear soon after finding that.

The answer to the registration question was easy when the trucks were younger. Seems the Sonoma name is fading with current owners. That question and answer has served very well in denying bots access :) I am not around as much as I have been, but I am still available. I do get the emails and PM. I ...

Sounds lots like the transmissions that have cracked the sun shell , or planetary. A full transmission rebuild is in your future.

Boise springworks kits will not change the range of travel. It will only move the resting height upward. Stock length shocks would be fine

No regular production models were 2wd in USA

Has anyone tried Sikaflex 1a? It is pretty awesome construction adhesive. Seems like it has pretty good chemical resistance. Sticks to anything. It is expensive at over $15 a tube and like urethane once exposed to air it cures. Open it and you don't usually get to save much of the left over. Might b...

Should. Some had a different size U-joint and require and adapted cross to fit the driveshaft. Mine was direct bolt in

If you have 3.73 ratio the odds are in your favor as most were that ratio I believe.

Are you sure that the shift fork is on the slide and not beside it? Sounds like the actuator may not be on the correctly. I did that wrong once.

How about the cable for engaging the front axle?

That is what I was hoping. Simple stuff

The stock rear is pretty flexy. Best to upgrade to the ZR2 rear axle. Many of those will have the GovLoc. I like them

If you really want a locker and do mostly offroad the lunchbox lockers (Powertrax) do work. They can be harsh and really beat the axles and transmission though.

I'd start here: Fuel system diagnosis You will need a pressure gauge.

Ditto

Replace the transfercase switch. That is likely filling your vacuum system with fluid. From the sounds of it your reservoir is full. Probably need to replace that and many of the lines too. I suspect you will find it in your heater controls. If so...it will be a long road to getting that mess cleane...

Good news. Thanks for sharing!

Dang! just like all the shows out there...you left us with a cliff hanger

Don't forget that the crew cab has an Isuzu Hombre "fender bulge" bed

That price seems pretty good. The only other option would to be get lucky and find a used one, or build it yourself.

Congrats

welcome

Maybe a front receiver and a winch cradle would be cheaper?

Wheel rearspacing. 2wd has lots less rearspacing. Clearance on the front fenders may be an issue.

I am sure that you know polarity is important for LED. They won't work backward

+ has to be +

Do you have 12v at the battery? At the alternator? In the electrical center?
Suspect a bad ground if the rest of the stuff checks out good.

Beautiful!

How is the ignition system? Cap and rotor? Coil?

Cool. Literally

The right (passenger side) axle is two piece and disconnects

Make sure you have a module: http://www.s-10crewcab.net/og1/modinfo/ ... ssant.html

worn clock spring would be top of my list for a suspect

I was one

Good to know! I have yet to be "burned" on an internet purchase, but come close a couple times. If you purchased using a credit card, any chance they will fight for you? I purchased a security camera. It was terrible and would not focus. I returned it and waited. 17 days and no refund even after rep...

We pulled a trailer with ours for quite a while http://lh3.ggpht.com/_RO9V0wGzLJg/S661tDyc92I/AAAAAAAAALI/_7nypujRvws/s640/IMGP0366.JPG Even a smaller trailer like this was a struggle once up to 9400ft. It did the job, but a couple more cylinders makes it much easier and gets better mileage. I think...

Good detailed information, Thanks!

Heat soak is normal. The stock gauge, IIRC does read a little higher than actual temp. Sounds like you may have it solved?

First thing that comes to mind is bad head gasket. There is a hydrocarbon test kit that can check the coolant for combustion gases.
Another thought is the plugged cat. Overheating is a symptom.
GL

Nice

Sounds like the right answer! You were already ahead of us

welcome aboard :wave: I really don't recall a heat shield for the starter on these trucks. I have seen small shields for the solenoid on one or two V-8 engines. I fabbed a couple shields for a couple engines. In the end the high torque mini starters were the answer to solving a heated starter proble...

This thread might be worth a look: Spectra gray paint

Fixed up a Crosman 1322. Nice shooter. The parts removed in the upgrade went into the old 1377 I have. Freshened it up and updated it a little.

iF anyone 9 Know 9 is turning 65 today...Have a great one, you deserve it

I think the flying will be easy. How long do you think I should wait? Is the price on the Phantom 3 pro going to get better than this: DJI Phantom 3 Professional (Pro) Drone Quad Copter W/ DJI Hardshell Backpack

My son has a samsung galaxy tab. That would likely be the display if it will do the job. downloading app to try the flight simulator.
Doh! only works when connected to the device! Boo. Would have made a better sales tool to be able to test before purchase.

Either time, or money :( getting the two lined up can be difficult. We will look seriously at it though. I have had the DJI Phantom 3 Advanced bookmarked. Should I be looking at DJI Phantom 3 Pro instead? Am I better to buy a kit like these, or should I just add pieces that are needed? What are the ...

Very cool stuff. I have been following your facebook posts. A drone is still on my wish list. My son has a light weight and is getting good with it. When some mad money comes our way I think we will upgrade.

Welcome

build sounds impressive !

Good to know!

Shiny

Check for and clear any codes. Long story - short. Just went through an identical problem with the neighbor kids 2001 2500 silverado last night. Replaced pump , tried passlock relearn. Turns out some where in the process a code for low voltage to the TPS was set preventing the fuel pump from pressur...

Cool, thank you. I will add it to that page

From the modifications page linked to the logo up top: Boise Springworks kit

I don't think it has exact dimensions, but if you show it to your spring shop they should be capable of building the kit

Drilling and tapping would not be a plan in my book. Either use an available location, or look for a better transplant option.
As much trouble as you are going to put a 2004 V-6 in there you could install a V-8

Quite a few differences in the fuel system and emissions on the 2004 engine.
Easiest answer might be to use your sensors, intake and exhaust on the 2004 engine? Basically just use the 2004 long block. Retain all your stock wiring , PCM and BCM.

Wow, I didn't remember that one. Guess it has kept the spammers at bay. It is "What is a GMC crew cab?" I'll PM the answer

SPLASH!

Jordan Craters, OR

Look for and download the GM upfitter manuals. They have details frame specifications and you will see there are many differences in the ZR2 frame. The excab comes closer , but still not a good match. SAS may be the best bet for saving with all the cut and patch that needs to happen, barring a good ...

You know what an "expert" is right? Former (ex) drip under pressure (spurt)

welcome

Quick trip to the gulch

Easy bolt on improvement for the crew cab

Big improvement over the flexy stock housing

The S-10crewcab.net logo at the top of the page links to our home page. there are several useful links there including "Stock information" and modifications. All this was complied by members and added to those pages over more than a decade now :) Great resource! The answer you seek is here: Trim hei...

Adjusting to max z-height is fine. Exceed that and you risk CV boots, or joints and ball joints. Careful with shackles if you intend to tow. There can be enough lateral movement to rub the driveshaft on the fuel tank.

You know what they say..."anything worth doing once is worth doing again?" In this case "Fool me once shame on me , fool me twice shame on you" might be more appropriate? I guess you could have been wasting your time and money on booze and bar flies.... actually after a third radiator that is starti...
