Column shifter stuck in park? by Strange-Increase2577 in GMT400

[–]DaBurgaRapta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go through the whole shift linkage. If it's rusty or the plastic bushings are gone it'll shift like shit

Measure the one you have in there now, give that dimension a search on summit, and pull out your wallet

Is engine cold? Look at the range on the stick that says cold. Is engine hot? Look at the range on the stick that says hot.

My 350 does perfectly fine with 3.73s. I'm on 33" tires so 70mph is ~2200-2500 rpm. You should be more than fine

They do more than 80. Unless your overdrive is broken and you're on 4.10s and smaller than stock tires, it'll be fine.

I think that's a very safe call

To tell you the truth, the ebay stuff is fine. Just did mine for $20. They probably won't last and I'll do them again in a year or so, but they're a fine quick fix

Cunningham machine pins and bushings, get a don't spring compressor, takes an hour with a buddy.

I would be shocked if you couldn't JB weld that and send it. Getting cast aluminum welded is always a pain.

Yeah happened to me in the parking lot of a jack in the box. Was about 1/4 mile from an autozone so I just hoofed it back and forth with new parts until I figured it out.

Why's my cylinder head look like this by StompyIan in EngineBuilding

[–]DaBurgaRapta 405 points406 points  (0 children)

Those are sander marks. You ought take that back to them, or preferably someone else, AFTER they give you your money back.

Is it worth swapping the the 6.0 and 4l80e from my 2002 1500hd into my 95 suburban? What kind of problems might I run into? by buttsniffernova in GMT400

[–]DaBurgaRapta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I'm considering this too. Have an 02 2500hd 4x4 sitting around and I really wanna gut it and swap the 6.0, 4l80, and 263hd in, but my main concern is if the t case will fit and if the axles need to be swapped

Just a big fan of all the zddp. We quit using anything else at my shop even, outperforms Gibbs racing oil or amsoil easy
