    Good rear gears

    Good Afternoon members. Just got my truck back with the "new" Vortec 350. I want to do some long distance driving with it but was told it's geared too low. It's an 84 C2500 with the TH400. I don't know what are in it now, but want to change them out in the next few months. I'm just doing in town...

    Auto shifter bushing

    I found out the bushing that is on the shifter to column rod is missing. Can someone post a pic of what it looks like for me please? My truck is at the shop locked up. It's an 84 Sierra with the TH400. Apparently the linkage was a little bent from the PO when it was a farm truck. Thanks and...

    Exhaust downpopes

    I bought what I thought was a complete, minus mufflers exhaust system through Jegs a couple years ago, but it doesn't have any downpipes. It's a standard 2.5" kit. No one carries just the downpipes, and mine were homemade. Does anyone know who I can get just the 2 stock downpipes through? My...

    Good Morning members. I have an 84 Sierra, base model with a 350. I put in a new stock radiator last year, but the upper mounts for it are homemade. I have these brackets which look correct for my truck, but online images show different types of mounting. Can someone let me know if the pads...

    Emissions question

    I have an 84 Sierra C2500, base model, and it came from California but didn't have the emissions stuff on it. I'm living in Northern Arizona right now, but thinking of moving to Tucson. If the truck didn't come with the emissions stuff, I shouldn't have to add it if they have requirements for it...

    Good Morning everyone. Would the frame on a 90 C30 be the same as my 84 C2500? I have a chance to get a receiver hitch cheap but want to make sure the frames are the same. Standard long bed on both

    Flywheel tooth count

    Is there a way to find out the tooth count on an original flywheel for an 84 Sierra 2500, with a 250 and TH400? I could get under the truck, Mark one tooth and rotate the engine counting the teeth but I'm looking for an easier way if there is one. Engine has been changed in the past and I'm...

    Question about parts in catalogs.

    Question for everyone. I different catalogs, why is it that some parts cost more for one side as opposed to the other? Example is left side costs more than the right, yet they are pretty much identical. Another question is wiring. I was looking at a taillight harness for my 84 C2500, and the...

    Brake light keeps going out

    Good Morning everyone. Got a question about my right brake light, on my 84 C2500. I've replaced the socket/pigtail twice now, and the brake light keeps going out, then will start working again. When it works, it goes for quite awhile then all of a sudden it quits working. Taillight on the right...

    Back window sunshade

    Just thought I'd post this for anyone interested. I came up with another use for a sunshade. I screwed 3 binder clips to the inside of the cab, and clip my windshield sunshade into them to keep the sun out. Works pretty good. I tuck the shade behind the seat.

    Something Different

    Thought I’d break away from the norm with my gauge bezel. I had some Krylon Fusion matte blue left from other projects so sprayed my bezel then outlined the gauge openings. Came out pretty good. Will try to get it out in tomorrow to see how it looks. Now I want to do my steering column the same...

    Turn signal lever

    I have a base 84 Sierra and looking for a replacement turn signal lever with the chrome finish. Everything I see online is for trucks with wiper delay(mine doesn’t have delay). I have a Dorman lever but didn’t realize it’s for trucks with delay until today. I’m not real concerned but the marks...

    Cig lighter phone holder issue

    Is there a deeper or better power port/cigarette lighter for our trucks to use a phone holder in? I have an original one socket in my 84 Sierra but the phone holder I have isn't tight in it, like it doesn't go in far enough, and I'm seeing small sparks when I try to plug it in. It has a usb...

    No Defrost

    Good Afternoon members. I have a question concerning my defrost not working on my 84 C2500. I'm wanting to know if this little "pot" could be the culprit? The defrost worked for a couple years then went screwy and quit working, but the regular heat works just fine. The "Defroster Actuator" is...

    tighter steering

    I have a 3/4 ton 84 Sierra and was wondering if there is a way to get tighter turning on it? I know these long beds don't turn on a dime, but I'd like to be able to get into straight in parking spots easier than a 3 point turn. Is there a way of doing this?

    Front end dress up.

    Got me some new park light housings and a set of bumper guards for my plain jane Sierra. Guards dressed it up a little. Will add some wheel arch moldings eventually just to break up the white.

    Horn wiring

    I have a question for you all. I bought an air horn off Amazon, and it only haas 2 wires: Black and Red. Black obviously goes to a ground, but can I connect the red to the factory green horn wire to use the factory horn button?
