#102 of 233 Re: 2000 4x4 blinking and not working, its not the switch [jasdav1] by jbeyhi Aug 01, 2008 (10:45 am)
Replying to: jasdav1 (Mar 11, 2008 11:01 am) I have had the same symptoms on my 1999 Silverado K2500 4x4 pickup. The first time it happened the dealer changed the actuator. I don't know what the part is and it worked but after 2 years the problem is back. So I am in search of what the actuator is and how to replace it. Could it be the switch that you referred to? Is the switch the push button panel? Any advise on your experience?
#103 of 233 88 silverado rear shock mounts by wv_hillbilly Aug 04, 2008 (5:47 am)
I have a 88 silverado 4x4, 350, auto trans. The rear top shock mount broke due to rust. any suggestions of where to locate replacements? Ive called everyone here in West Virginia and Im told its a dealer item only. I cant afford $102.88 for just one mount and I need to go ahead and replace the other one as well. Surley someone out there sells the mounts for a bit more reasonable price!?!

#106 of 233 2003 Silverado 4x4 switch by circuit1 Sep 27, 2008 (9:01 am)
I noticed the other day the red light on my 4x4 switch panel was on and when I pressed 2WD or 4WD the engaged indicator light for those switches just flashed. Later the red indicator went out. anyone know of this indicator light and what may have happened?

Replying to: tpruitt (Mar 23, 2008 10:54 am) "Actuator" It is a electronic piece that tells the front end to kick in. A new one will run you around 80 bucks on a GM and you can always buy a used one from a junk yard for 35 - 40 bucks. It takes 10 minutes tops to change it and all you need is a cressent wrench. This information is all from experience on a late model GMC Z71. I hope it helps!
#108 of 233 Best Tires on a Silverado? by blckislandguy Sep 30, 2008 (5:37 pm)
I have an '08 Silverado 1500 (non-Z28) that came with some fairly unagressive all season tires. Does anyone have any suggestions for the best replacement tire that would deal well with snow, ice, and highway driving? Replies to this message: obyone (Sep 30, 2008 9:57 pm)

Replying to: blckislandguy (Sep 30, 2008 5:37 pm) I'm assuming you mean non-Z71. I've always installed Michelin LTX M/S on my trucks after the stocks wore out and sometimes much earlier. However, while visiting tirerack looking for tires other than the Michelins I stumbled upon these and picked up a set after reading their survey results which were stellar. Firestone Destination A/T After 5K miles, they are everything that their survey results say they are.
