NEED HELP!!? My 1986 GMC K2500 Sierra Classic came with automatic locking hubs and I hate automatic locking hubs because they are unreliable. Is it possible to remove the automatic hubs and replace them with manual locking hubs, how much work is involved in replacing auto-hubs with manual hubs(what steps do you take in replacing auto-hubs with manual hubs?), and how much would it ruffly cost to have a mechanic do the job????? ANY INFO ON THIS SUBJECT WOULD BE APPRICIATED!!

yes you can and most have already been swapped. buy set of WARN hubs from summit racing or any place like that as a kit and then find someone like me who owns a private shop and knows about the old chevies and can put them on for you for about 75 bucks labor at the most.

have to remove all the allen head screws around the hub and then parts under that, the auto locking splined parts on the outer stub shaft. asnd replace with the manual parts and hub. use lots of chassis grease.



my stepdad has an 82 k-10 and he purposely wants to keep the auto hubs on his because he doesnt like to get out of the truck and lock them in
but they do fail sometimes and cause some noises

he wants to find brand new auto hubs for it but i have not found any yet for him

NOS GM ones.,

Hello, hive! I have a 1999 GMC K1500 Suburban. When I step on the brake pedal, no keys in switch, the dash and marker lights come on. When headlights are off, driving normally, both turn signals work normally, but the dash and marker lights flash with right turn signal. When headlights are on, left signaL works normally, but right signal buzzes a little at the relay, but does not blink, even though the rear lamp does light on the right side. I am at a loss. So is my mechanic. Help??

How did all that work out?
I'm wondering about your preferred PSI for tires.
My mechanic recommended 32 psi for my heavily-loaded 1990 Vandura.
That's what I've used for years (once it was around 36-38, and that felt like I was on rollerblades and could not sense the road . . . ), yet I see videos saying that 32 is way too low and damages tires . . .

(I got 11-12 years out of my tires at 32 psi.)

Thank you for any helpful feedback!

I'm replacing a lower seat foam and leather. The lower foam is attached to a smaller metal frame and is then bolted to the main seat frame. At the rear of the foam/smaller frame there are 2 locating pins that must fit into holes at the rear of the lower seat before the 2 front screws line up with the holes to put screws in. I' not sure what to call them but I need at least 1, 2 would be better, help please.

"I've come across quite a few articles about lifter damage lately. I assume much of it is marketing hype, but I suspect there’s some truth to it in certain cases. Any thoughts or real-world experiences?"
