Those pictures are just sickening . I Hope everything works out well for you...

Welcome!

Hey think I just saw you around 12:30 at Alaska Club, I was in the drive thu at Weebees LOL. I'm pretty sure it was you because it had blacked out grill and brake ducts and a bike rack. Didn't stop because I had to go home then make it back to my next class. I'll honk or say something next time! P.S. (if you still have that sub out thing, in a month I might get it, just can't right now because I'm buying an extra set of stock wheels and new studded tires so don't have much extra $$ lol)

I'll have to try that next time it acts up, thanks for the link its got a good procedure as well. I can't turn it off before I turn on the key on because it is digital climate control. I heard on the digital ones when you do this procedure to make sure it is set to "AUTO" and that is how the digital one relearns. I'll keep you guys updated if it messes up again.

I tryed doing this yesterday and after disconnecting the battery for 5 mins I reconnected it. It still didn't work so I parked the truck. Got in it an hour later and all of the sudden everything was back to normal and working fine??? I have a feeling that its going to act up again though, you guys are probley more on track with the bad HVAC controler or blend door or something like that. I'll just wait till it acts up again to try and fix it.

I was so close to giving you a call to buy this truck, but just didn't want to drive the extra miles from AZ to AK, so I got one in California. Sure looks good you should have no problem selling it at this price!

These are awesome cars and they do great in the snow! My mom has one with the same mileage and its got no problems. Good luck with the trade.

Just picked up 5 stock chrome wheels off craigslist with 4 de-studded winter tires mounted on them. Plan was going to be to restud the tires when I bought the rims, on further inspection once I bought them I relized they can't be restuded. So now I've got to buy new studded tires for them. Bought the 5 rims for $800 which might have been to much? Also the center caps were missing but their trying to find them at their house. I may just buy the caps off ebay. What do you guys think? At least I will have 20" rims winter and summer was going to put 16" rims and studded tires on there....Haha, Guess my real question is the 5th rim has a crack along the edge of it is about an inch long, it is mearly a spare now but is it even usable to mount a new tire onto? The tire thats on it has a cut in it and when I plug the cut I can put 30psi in it no problem and it holds air fine with the hole plugged. Picture of the crack.....

Wow, I am so sorry to hear for your loss, good thing everyone is alright. I can't imagine what it would be like to be driving along and your truck catches fire.

I was just searching though all the different craigslist sites to see what ss are out there and found this: http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/1379487719.html This has to be the worst look for an SS I've ever seen, why would you lift one??? , Lower it! The lifts are for Z71's and stuff like that. Anyways here's the pics.

Just picked it from the stealership, while they order the "fuse box" or whatever they think is wrong.So I get in start it up, now the passenger side A/C is stuck on full blast with recirculate mode, and the drivers side is blowing heat like no tomorrow. It's also now stuck blowing at you instead of defrost. When I try to turn recirculate off it flashes 3 times and then stays on, also changing the temperature settings does nothing. This is different than what it did before it used to be just be all heat or just all cold out of all vents. Any thoughts?

I know there are quite a few posts about this already but this problem is a bit different... I finally took the SS into the dealer on Wednesday because the Climate Control has been messing up lately (guess it never was changed from the A/C setting in Cali). It kept getting stuck on full blast heat or just a coldish warm air blowing out. Fan speeds still worked just as normal. The other thing that stopped working at the same time is the vent selections it also would get stuck on whatever it was on last. Anyway took it in Wednesday morning and they called today and said that the problem was the fuse box and it needs to be replaced so they are ordering a new one. Seems sort of weird I thought the problem would be with the Blend Door Actuators or something like that. Anyway have you guys ever heard of this happening? I'm going to pick it up tomorrow while the parts are on order.

Haha, ya I know what you mean with the kids in the parking lot, I could barley get in my truck the other day because an idiot parked way to close. I just don't want to walk that far to get to my classes....I'm their Mondays and weds in the morning and tues thurs in the afternoon. I'll keep an eye out for ya!

I also had this problem in my 2000 GMC Sierra at night you could see the interior lights and headlights flickering drove it for 2 months and then alternator finally stopped charging. I Replaced it and the problem went away in my case, not to this is your problem but it could very well be....

Sure, I might be interested...How much?

I've had a couple different trucks with transmissions from Hansen's.....The transmissions from them seem to be good for the most part. The ones I have had rebuilt there are: 96 GMC Sierra(last owner had it rebuilt before i bought) , 97 Suburban (Rebuilt around 04-05), and my last truck 2000 GMC Sierra (Rebuilt around August 08). All of them cost around 2k! They held up pretty good but were costly in my opinion. The suburban transmission was built wrong and had to be taken back and they replaced the torque converter and some other stuff but still charged labor even though it was there problem?? The 2000 GMC got the passenger side seat cover screwed up but transmission was awesome. So maybe their work has gotten better. The 96 was fine drove it for two years, keep in mind these were stock rebuilds. Anyway good luck and hopefully my SS won't need a transmission anytime soon....

I'd buy one with or without a zipper!

I moved the tank from behind the seat to in the frame rails on my 69. I used a reproduction blazer gas tank. Worked good!

Where did you get those floor mats? Did you have them made? There are some for sale on ebay that just say "ss" but don't have the silverado under the ss logo...

I saw a SS up here in Alaska with one of those racks and a trailer behind it. I would never put one on my truck, although my bed has been well used.....

Wow, that is absolutely amazing!

I'll keep an eye out for you, I'm around anchorage quiet a bit my truck is completely stock and has a plastic bed liner. Also might be in the 69 in my sig, See you around....

Cool, I read though the thread and you moved to AZ right? I know there are an amazing amount SS's up here, I see about that many a day as well. I do need to figure out my 03 Reg Cab Short bed with the LS1, its not running right (because of the tune but I have no way tuning it yet or knowledge of tuning ). Thanks for letting me know someones on here!

You can add me its, blueaksss
