Expert Answers about Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup


  • Replacement Tarp for TruXedo TruXport on 1994 Chevy C/K Series Pickup with 8' Bed
  • If you have the TruXedo TruXport # TX241601 on your 1994 Chevy C/K with the 8' bed then the replacement tarp is part # TX2416-CVR. If you have a different tonneau cover then I'd need to know what the brand and part number or style it is before I could let you know what the replacement tarp is (provided we carry it).

  • The LED Triple Tail Light # 328-003-30LEM2 that you referenced is sold individually. If you needed a pair of them you'd need to order a quantity of two of these. I attached a review video for the light assembly for you to check out as well.

  • What Size Light Fits the Custer Light Mounting Box # MT-BOX4-2
  • Yes, the difference in diameter of the openings of the Custer Light Mounting Box # MT-BOX4-2 that you referenced and the diameter of the lights that fit into the holes is the grommet. The Peterson Trailer Tail Light part # 435800 is the correct size for this. It is overall a diameter of 4-1/4 inches and when using the included grommet it fits the hole size perfectly.

  • How to Use Circuit Tester to Find Brake Light Switch Wire for Brake Controller Installation
  • The video you referenced in your question about trailer brake controller installation is linked for you. At the 7:20 mark our installer does begin the process of identifying the brake light switch wire that will connect to the brake controller's RED wire. He used a circuit tester like # PTW2992 and # PTW2993 to probe the wires at the brake light switch to find the one wire that carries 12V power ONLY when the pedal is pressed. There will be other wires for other functions clustered in...

  • Do Longer Leaf Springs Require Relocation of Trailer Spring Hangers
  • It is quite common for old worn-out leaf springs to measure longer than they were when new. This elongation is one part of the wear process. The modest length difference between the 25-1/4-inch and 25-7/8-inch springs you reference is small enough that hanger relocation should not be necessary. Spring length should be measured with the springs removed from the trailer. If still installed on the hangers and under any load the spring will not measure the same as when removed from the suspension. The...

  • Best Mounting Kit To Install B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Hitch On a 1998 Chevy C/K Series 3500
  • In order to use the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # BWRVK3255 on a 1998 Chevrolet C/K Series 3500 you will need the B&W Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit part # BWRVR3200. That said, I understand you are looking for a kit which does not use L-brackets like the above but the problem is that they don't offer a kit for the truck above with the one-piece side plates which I think it what you are after. The kits which contain one-piece side plates are custom install kits...

  • 1971 Chevy C20 Custom Cab Steps
  • The steps we have as custom fit for your 1971 Chevy C20 are made by Aries Automotive and come in Black # AA204036 or Silver # AA204036-2. These are just your standard nerf bars that give you a step-up to get into your cab but they don't have the rough tread like the DeeZee Rough Step Running Boards you're looking at. You might be able to get the DeeZee to fit but you'll definitely need some fabricated mounts for that.

  • Availability Of Replacement Spindle For 7000lb Dexter Trailer Axle Beam W/ 4" Drop 8327872
  • I have another option for you but there is not a screw on spindle available for the # 8327872 you were looking at. To replace one of the spindles on the Dexter Trailer Axle Beam with 4" Drop E-Z Lube Spindles - 94" Long - 7,000 lbs # 8327872 you would need to have the #42 E-Z Lube 4" Drop Spindle w/ Flange for 5.2K to 7K Trailer Axles - 3" Diameter # TRU39FR welded on by an axle shop as it will need to be perfectly square to the axle and the other spindle. I included a video of the #...

  • Do Buyers Products Hitch Plates Get Bolted or Welded to Truck Frame
  • The Buyers Products hitch plate part # 3371809065 that you referenced is designed to be welded on by a professional. The bolts holes are there for you to hold the hitch in place for when it gets welded on according to our techs at Buyers Products. They do not provide any written instructions either as they want you to take it to someone with the experience and skills needed who wouldn't need them.

  • Electric Tailgate Locking Kit for 1996 Chevy 1500 C/K Series Pickup
  • I have a solution for you, but the Pop&Lock Custom Tailgate Lock # PAL1700 is not designed to fit on your 1996 Chevy C/K pickup and will only fit on 2004-2020 GMC/Chevy small trucks. You would only have the option of adding an electric lock with the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock # PAL8100. This is does not come with a new handle, but simply adds in an electric locking mechanism that is compatible with the existing power locks on your truck. If you don't already have power locks on your...

  • Troubleshooting Tekonsha Voyager Operation on 1998 Chevy Silverado 1500
  • The Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller # 39510 sounds like it is working. The brake output sounds like it could be adjusted much higher for when applying brakes, but the issue is that the testing will not be accurate when not in motion except when using the manual override slide. The Voyager is a proportional controller so it will apply brakes in proportion to the deceleration of the tow vehicle. Since you get manual override and proper voltage on the red wire, it appears all...

  • What is the Fitting Size on the Stainless Steel Furrion 2-in-1 Range Ovens
  • The 21" Stainless Steel Furrion 2-in-1 Range Oven # FSRE21SABL has a 3/8” Male Flare fitting. If you are wanting to use a 20 or 30 lb propane tank with this oven then I recommend using the 4' # 100040-48-MBS, 6' # 100040-72-MBS, or 12' # 100040-144-MBS hose along with a dual stage regulator, part # 108220 with the fitting # 204120-MBS for a single tank or part # CAM59005 for dual tanks. Once you have all of this connected you just need a pigtail like part # 100833-15 to your propane tank(s)...

  • Hitch That Fits 1977 Chevy C/K Silverado with 35 inch Frame
  • The mounting holes of the Curt hitch # 13028 would be slotted enough to allow it to fit on your 1977 Chevy C/K Silverado that has a 35 inch measured frame. Most likely what you have is the exact style this hitch fits but due to the age of your truck it could have been in an accident or just the variances in the vehicles back then cause it to be unique. Either way worst case scenario you could drill new holes as needed.

  • Will a 1999 Chevy CK Bumper Fit on a 1997 Chevy CK?
  • It truly depends on the model. Most of the time, manufacturers create specific models of bumpers to fit specific years/makes/models of truck. They also make specific mounting hardware for installation. With that being said, sometimes there is overlap of compatibility between the two vehicles. For example, the Westin Fey Diamonstep with Mounting Hardware # 20009-92230 happens to fit both 1999 and 1997 models (as long as they aren't flareside or stepside models). If you know the model...

  • Finding Brake Switch Wire to Install Brake Controller on a 1989 Chevy K2500 Pickup
  • The white brake switch wire was the common brake light only wire on 1992 and newer Chevy trucks and SUVs but not on the 1989 C/K series trucks. I am not certain which brake switch wire you will need so the only way to know is to test the brake switch wires using a circuit tester such as # PTW2993. The truck key may or may not have to be in the on position. You are looking for the wire that only has power when the brake pedal is pressed. If the wire also has power with the headlights or...

  • Can the Hopkins Brake Controller Install in a 1996 Chevy Truck
  • The Hopkins part # HM47294 is going to work just fine on your 1996 Chevy Truck. The fitguide just doesn't go all the way back to 1996 is why your vehicle isn't listed. Brake controller are pretty universal and can hardwire to basically any vehicle. I attached a help article that details how controllers get hardwired to vehicles from scratch. I also attached an install video that shows the # ETBC7 install kit being used to install a similar controller in a 1996 truck just like yours.
