You need to source one that is the same year as your vehicle, have Chris White aka GTPprix at whiteautoandmedia.com program it, install and enjoy. He just did one for my SLT Yukon. Contact him through his website during the specified times and he'll take care of you. He can make sure you have...

Yeah, I'm thinking it's the stepper motor.

I guess so. I actually replaced the original alt in early 2008 with a 255Amp from rat ron (member from the other gm site). I hate to replace it, but if it's done, so be it. I guess I can grab a 160amp. I'll get the batt and alt bench tested and report back.

Wonder if the initial battery essentially dying before replacement would contribute to damaging the alt?

Sorry about that. It's a 2007 GMC Sierra Classic Crew Cab SLT Z71 with the flex fuel 5.3. Jared, do you mean to have both the alt and battery bench tested?

Perplexed by this one. Five days ago the voltmeter needle climbed to around 19V. It does fluctuate some, but never below 16V. Had things tested at Advance Auto. It showed everything within parameters, but still gave a result to replace the battery. It was an Optima Red Top I installed in...

Srs?

Location: Mobile, AL Shipping: On you Contact: via PM Free to a good home. The clips are broken in a couple spots.

Saw this over on denalitrucks.com. Thought I'd give it a shot. The driver's side already had the mounting holes. I just copied the pattern on the passenger side. Instead of splicing wires, I pulled the wires out of the connectors and replaced it with the properly terminated...

I did a lot of research on this while swapping in a hyrobooster/master cylinder setup and thought I'd share my experience. Parts/tools: 1. Large phillips screwdriver 2. M/C bleeder kit 3. DOT 3 brake fluid 4. I picked up some clear tubing since I wanted to see the bubbles...

Thanks man. I don't get on the other site too much anymore. I was wondering where everybody went.

Those of us who weren't blessed with a hydraulic brake booster from GM can attest to the less than stellar stopping power of the vacuum assist brakes on our vehicles. For me, that just wouldn't do. So it was new project time. :grin: Let me preface by saying I do have SS lines, powerslot...

For the shocks, I elected to go with Bilstein 5100's. C153 for the front and D147 for the rear. And yes, I am aware of the application that is printed on the box for the rears. Evidently, Bilstein used the shock for 1500 and 2500 applications. Here's what you start with in stock form. I...

I chose to level my 1/2 ton NBS 4x4 with Ford Keys and Bilstein shocks. I had to have it driveable during the week, able to tow properly and go to the camp with ease. First, I'll cover installing the torsion bar keys. You'll need a set of Ford keys Then locate the cross member...

I bet you thought I forgot about the cylinder. They were actually the easiest part of the job. There's two star head bolts holding it on. A 1/4 socket works great. Just loosen those and the brake line. I placed a vacuum cap over the end of the brake line while I swapped the cylinders...

I was told I had a leaking wheel cylinder, so I figured I'd document my progress while replacing both cylinders and shoes. Once you've removed the wheel and drum, here's what you'll see: Notice the single horseshoe spring holding the brake shoes on. It's anchored at the bottom and hooks...

This is a how to for the oil pressure sensor on NBS trucks. It's a common issue for it to go bad. My symptom was the oil pressure gauge pegged at 80 psi on my 2007 GMC Sierra Classic. Parts: oil pressure sensor, GM 12616646, ACD D1846A, $34 on Amazon oil pressure switch socket...

The "big 3" upgrade is a common mod done by owners. It involves upgrading the size and quality of wire for the battery and alternator. This will provide better current flow which can affect many aspects of your vehicle (i.e. less voltage drop, no dimming lights, even better mileage, etc...)...

I though I might do a write up since I haven't seen a how to with pics. This procedure with allow you to flush all the fluid from the tranny, converter, lines, cooler, etc. I did drop the pan and change the filter and seal. If you don't wish to, then skip over those steps (They'll be in...
