@@hunterstevens7208 agree, but disagree on steering. Dont know if the 95 and up gmt400s ditched the rag joint, but i like my steering as tight as i can get it. While i dont think a steering stabilizer is needed if your not sending your truck on the regular, at least swap the steering shaft for the jeep yj one and ditch the rag for a proper ujoint.

I know this is out of date but I wanted to say that I have a 1999 Tahoe 2 wd with the 350. Absolutely the best vehicle I have ever owned. I have 321k on it now. I have never had to go into the motor or tranny, only alternator and starter and serpentine system. I sprung an unknown leak on the rearend and burnt up the rearend. $350 salvage yard cost for replacement rearend. A weekend of swapping the rear end and back on the road for 40k so far. I wouldn’t trade my Tahoe for a brand new one.

The very FIRST thing you should do to your 1500 Like that is take the Rust starting wheelwell mouldings off your wheelwells..All they are good for is holding dirt, grime and road salt and causing Rust to form. 2nd is invest in a set of weather tech floor liners. 3rd is change your exhaust to a true dual exhaust. 4th change to new headlights like you stated.

Cut a hole in the bed above the fuel pump, and use the piece to make a little door with weather stripping. Some people get lucky and don’t ever have to replace the fuel pump but mine failed more times than I can count in my 96 and also buy a lifetime warranty fuel pump if it does go out so you can take it back if it. And never let you fuel gauge go below half a tank lol

Thanks for the video and the very practical tips for enhancing a truck. I have a 1992 K1500 Suburban with the 6 speaker factory stereo and first thing I did when I bought it is upgraded to a modern Kenwood with Bluetooth etc. so I can answer phone hands free and stream music from my IPhone. The console in my truck is bigger than the 96/99 trucks and my 4 x 4 shifter is on the floor where I like it. I have purchased Anzo headlites and park lites but haven't installed them yet. I'm surprised you didn't mention changing out the taillights for plug and play LEDs as they are inexpensive and easy to change out. My Burb came with the RPO NZZ - OFF ROAD pkg and surprisingly 225/75 16 tires as I guess they weren't part of the Odd Road Package. I have bought a 2015 GMC factory 18 inch rims and a set of 265/70 18 inch tires but again haven't installed them.. I will be checking on you suggestion of the front stabilizer and leveling kits but will not be lifting it at all.

I had my eye on this truck for about 3 years so I'm excited about it. I'll definitely look into new headlights; that leveling bar (my truck is lifted); and that steering piece cause the steering wheel has some play in it that I don't like. Thanks

1 fuel pump for sure 2 shocks 3 trudual exhaust 4 454 radiator 5 lights for sure 6 steering stuff 7 take the stock center console out put 07 to 13 center console with the 3 cup holder or do the whole front seat conversion fits right in 8 make sure the back window and windshield are still sealed right or will leak pretty bad 9 make sure the dash lights still work have a tendency to fail 10 and most importantly take care of that 4l60e .other than the seats that's what you should do when you get an obs Chevy c or k anything. One more thing if your truck is a k1500 and didn't come with the 14 bolt rear end invest in one

Was gonna subscribe but I think I lost brain cells. I own a 99 Tahoe cranked the stock torsion keys and a lift block in the rear and rides better than it did stock. And also the first thing you should do if it hasn't already rebuild the ticking time bomb under it aka the 4L60E 😂😂😂 definitely one to laugh at
@TrucksandWater
@TrucksandWater 5 жыл бұрын
You don't want to crank the stock torsion keys do to they aren't designed to do that. The 4l60E is not a ticking time bomb. If taken care of properly and not abused, they are great transmissions. It is all about taking care of your truck and not abusing it.

#5 make your truck trackable? No thanks. #4 Real men don't fear the clutch. #3 Okay, I'll give you that one. #2 Is part of #3 no question. #1 You're almost right. For the headlights, having them all LED is a bad idea for winter as they will get covered in snow and reduce your vision to nada pdq. To do them up right you could try this mod. Pull the stock wires and replace with 10 ga. Run relays for both high and low beams. Put in a crossover so all four come up on high beam. Use HID lights for your lows and LED's for high beams. Snow will melt off the HID low beams, instant on for the LED highs, you won't cook your switch with the relays and your voltage drop in that circuit will be dropped putting more light out front with the heavier wires. It's your truck, if you're happy with it then that's what counts. Carry on.
