Shift to park

Obviously been seeing online this is a common issue, and the zip tie method did not work. The shift to park message doesn’t come on every time but becoming increasingly more common. 2022 Trailboss. Anyone take it to a dealership to get fixed? What was the cost?

2005 2500 6.0 Purchase?

170k miles with one owner. Photos look clean and asking price is 8900. Thoughts? Would use it to tow my wife’s rogue to Texas and it would then be my daily for normal truck stuff. I’m in Southern California for climate thoughts. What should I inspect when I check it out?

Help deciding on a truck please. 2 Chevy's to choose.

I've got two trucks I'm looking at. I have an fj40 I use for more serious trails. I need a truck I can tow my 19ft bass boat but also occasionally hit a light trail to go to a camping spot. I'm in Upstate NY, I'd be going to like Piseco/Powley road or a few spots that have some small ruts near me.

The one truck is an awesome deal at 6k but it's longggg 1999 3500 4x4 Chevy long bed crew cab dually. I'd swap it over to single before using it, probably keeping the dually axle and put it on 33s-35s. 70k vortec 454 with 150k on the truck and trans. Also has new brakes all around including lines, as well as the fuel lines and some other miscellaneous stuff. I don't think this will have a problem with what I'm looking at other than a few approaches into certain campsites. Especially if I throw some bigger tires on to help with the clearance. It's just about 21 feet long!!!

The other truck is a 87 Suburban 2500 4x4 454, decently clean chassis, original paint peeling on the frame but not rotted anywhere by the looks of it. This has the advantage of a solid front end and being much shorter. They're looking for 4500 for this one.

Both will tow what I need without an issue, I'm mainly stuck on how good of a deal the 3500 is. How bad are these one tons off road? Links https://www.facebook.com/share/1EXcaZPoxA/ https://www.facebook.com/share/1K6drfqmcc/

2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 turns over but won’t start

I’ve had this truck since mid-April and it has started right away with no issues up until two days ago. I’ve checked the crank and ignition fuses and they are okay. I appreciate any help!

ETA: I can hear the fuel pump running briefly after releasing the key.

Help

Couldn’t get ball joint off for upper control arm, so I cut it with a rotary tool. Still can’t get the stud loose. It almost seems like it’s welded on the knuckle boss or something

2024 Silverado 2500 DRL Override Question

Looking for some honest feedback from anyone running an amber DRL Override module on a 2024 Silverado 2500.

I’m intentionally not naming the manufacturer because I’m still actively working with their technical support, and I want to give them the opportunity to resolve the issue before drawing any conclusions. I’m simply looking to see if anyone else has experienced something similar.

The module has been anything but plug-and-play. The passenger-side turn signal doesn’t work, and the passenger DRL randomly switches between white and amber. It’s intermittent and honestly looks ridiculous when it happens.

The manufacturer reviewed my installation photos and confirmed everything was installed correctly. As another troubleshooting step, I removed the module and plugged the factory harness back in. As soon as I did, everything worked perfectly again—both turn signals, DRLs, and no intermittent issues.

Their solution has been to send me a resistor that requires me to install T-taps into my factory wiring. My concern is that I spent nearly $200 on what was advertised as a plug-and-play product, and now I’m being asked to modify my factory harness just to make it work.

Has anyone else experienced this? Did adding a resistor permanently solve the issue? Is this a known problem with the 2024 2500s, or did I just happen to get a defective module?

I’m genuinely looking for honest experiences before I cut into my factory wiring. Thanks in advance.

Happy Birthday America the beautiful!

250 years in the making and although the world is constantly in chaos. We don’t always agree with the choices people make. But at least we are free to make those choices! I can’t think of a place I would rather call home than America! From sea to shining sea, I am proud to be an American.

Also where I can buy 2 different type vehicles and always have the right to worry which will break down 1st🤣🫡
God bless America and here 🍺is to another 250 years of freedom! 🇺🇸

Got lucky at the junkyard today

I had another truck with the storage box a few years ago and wanted another for this one. Didn’t realize they were kind of hard to find until recently when I started looking

1997 K1500 TCCM where!?

Does anyone know where to locate the 4x4 TCCM for a 1997 K1500? My mechanic kind of just stopped working on the truck after ripping everything out (see photos). Is the TCCM accessible from what is shown here? My understanding is it would be like 4”x6” box so I don’t know how we are missing it. Push button 4x4.

Silverado Power Steering issue

Looking for some help - I have a 2018 Silverado 1500 that’s been having intermittent power steering issues. It started while turning at very low speeds (in parking lots usually), I’d feel the wheel catch slightly, then lose power steering altogether, and get a message on my dash saying “service power steering - drive with care”. If I put my truck in park and shut it off to reset the system, it would kick back on and reset completely, driving normal again. Truck has 93,000 miles.

It’s now happening more often, and occurring when the steering system is under less stress. Still at low speeds, but sometimes I’ll hardly turn the wheel and feel the slight catch, then lose power steering.

I’ve brought it into multiple different shops and each has quoted me insane prices to fully replace the steering rack. I have to believe the problem is electrical, as it resets and kicks back on. From what I’ve researched it looks like the system has a fail safe from being overloaded, and it’s tripping. Maybe due to a loose connection or fuse? Is this something I can problem solve on my own?

Truck has a 3” lift and running 33” tires.

Thank you!

Anybody now this truck?? It’s sitting in my buddy’s shop currently. Some guy was doing a fraudulent giveaway on it through his shop “ozark speed co”. If you ordered anything from him you’re getting ripped off. Just a heads up.
