This video includes the new 88 to 94 LMC Truck dash being installed into my 1992 OBS Chevy Silverado truck with the help of my wife and daughter. Nothing in this video is sponsored. I selected my parts and supplies based on past use or testing, I use what works for me. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
A big help and my new favorite tool is the 12v Enertwist cordless electric ratchet shown in this video. It cut the time dramatically for both the truck dash removal and install. I highly recommend getting one or one like it. The item is still on the first charge of the first battery after using for a couple hours then sitting on my table for a few weeks between videos.

Great video and your truck looks great! Every "cool car" I build my wife and daughter want to take it over too! LOL. Our 1994 Suburban is the family "favorite" and will never be sold. My daughter will eventually inherit it...she is grown and wants it now!

I just subscribed to your channel...I have a 1991 ck 1500. I have the gray interior and want to swap out the Grey for black. I'm getting alot of info from your videos. Can you suggest any other videos on a removal and instal of the dash. I plan on just painting it black and putting it back in.

@thisoldhooptie Год назад

Welcome. Have a look in my truck playlist its all in there. The easiest way if yours is not broken and just coming out to paint then replace, follow my removal guide and add disconnecting the wire harness from the cab bulk heads. Then remove, paint, and connect in reverse. I show everything except the removal of the wire harness. I left mine in so I could drive it for a a while without the dash. Mine was broken in many places. Also have the dash painting tips in my truck playlist. The only thing I woukd change if its in the budget is use 2 part clear over what ever you paint. You can get it in the can if you don't have a gun. The 1 part stays soft for a really long time. Good luck and reach out if you need any info. 👍

How did u get the Gauge cluster wire back through the dash I have a 93 Chevrolet 3500 Dedham replacing the dash off and I can’t get the wire to go back through the hole

@thisoldhooptie 2 года назад

Turn it sideways pop one end through then should be able to lock back in place. Easier to do with one hand behind and the dash tilted forward.

Sweet, Looks great. I’m Looking forward to buying a new dash from LMC also, instead of buying a 20+ year old dash that’ll just end up cracking next summer (;

@thisoldhooptie 3 года назад

Thank you. That was my feeling too. However if I was to get a used one in the future I would fiberglass, then paint and Clearcoat it. Should be like a boat at that point :)

@GH-ur3zx Год назад

What is the size of the bolt for the pivot stud? LMC didn’t send them with the dash

@thisoldhooptie Год назад

It's not a standard bolt. Your best bet is to hit a junk yard and pull a pair. The lmc truck dash re uses all your old dash bolts and components.

Are you talking about the metal from around the steering column? If it unscrew you can screw it to the new one. The lmc dash has all the dash bits needed except what you pull off the old one to re build it.

Hey do all these LMC dashes make the speaker grille pop up on the passenger side speaker grille? all the pics I see installed the dash seems to do that not sure if its just a manufacturing issue or maybe someone used LMC speaker grills and they sit higher.

@thisoldhooptie 3 года назад

The grills are fine. For me it was the dash. The way the ac vent behind the dash on that side sat it was 1/2 inch higher. Once you know what the issue issue its a pretty easy fix.

@GhettoWagon 3 года назад

@@thisoldhooptie Ya your grilles seem to sit lower someone else I saw on the internet had one and the grilles sat really high in the back. I would assume the dash is made offshore somewhere right? :D I might get one 540 shipped with our new Internet sales tax in FL :( Have to paint it burgundy.

@thisoldhooptie 3 года назад

I feel you, taxed to death. And pretty much everything is made offshore these days. Mine sits right because I heated up the air vent and depressed it about 1/2 inch so the speaker can drop lower. I still need to do that one more time its a fraction high on the left. Pretty easy to fix with heat and a big socket or anything shaped like the speaker magnet.

@GhettoWagon 3 года назад

@@thisoldhooptie Ahhh.. I see. The air vent you mention, is that black plastic piece that goes to the defrosters? Yea. Well.. Everyone gets charged a internet tax now FL held out for awhile. Blame Wayfair they started the whole case. I think I have some Pioneer speakers in the front of mine I had to rig washers around the brackets to get them to fit right under the grilles

How did you install the glove box light switch

@thisoldhooptie 2 года назад

The cover you see on the front un clips from the back side then you can remove and replace it. There is one wire plug in the back too. You need to remove the 4 screws for the inner glove box plastic cover to get to back side.

@jasonmitchell7677 3 года назад

New subscriber, I'm doing very similar work to my 94 sierra. The 92-94 LMC dash is out of stock, but they have the 88-92 dash. What is the difference? Looks the same to me and I really need a dash! Glad I've discovered your channel. Thanks for sharing.

@thisoldhooptie 3 года назад

The 88 to 91 dash is slightly different. The only big one is the way the gauge cable/plug mounts up. Its not the same on the older dash. If you cut out that small section from another dash and epoxied it you would probly be fine. Search for a video by rockerpat another youtuber who just did what you are asking about. Ill grab his link and post back here.

@thisoldhooptie 3 года назад

Totally agree. I also like the one off stuff though. Im waiting on someone to blow a huge wad of cash on the OBS TMI interior. They have some really nice seats and door panels. They don't look as comfy as the seats you and I got though.

How did you fit those speakers in the dash ? I’m looking to upgrade the 4x6 that are in mine , thanks!

@thisoldhooptie 3 года назад

I used the stock size in the dash and the back panels. By installing a better aftermarket version speaker with an aftermarket radio, they have great sound. You can also add a 4 channel amp for more power if that's your thing. I added an amp and 2 tens behind the seats. With the sound deadening all that I needed was more bass.
