88 to 98 Chevrolet Truck Common Problems 

Only problem with these trucks is they stopped makin’ em!!

Common problem: they’re too reliable. You don’t get to have a new truck all the time

An old chevy truck rides better than a new ford truck.

1988-98 silverados are better than modern ones

Old Chevy's don't leak oil, they just mark their spot!!

Out in Montana it is physically impossible to drive 3 blocks threw a city without seeing multiple square body Chevys

I have a 1995 gmc 1500 with 355,000 miles on it. Still tow and drive it daily. Still has a ton of power, and purrs like a kitten.

Frog problems

I bought a 95 Silverado for 2500,about 6 years ago in Vegas,Im now in charlotte.ive made so much money from it!hauling furniture and pallets,great truck!

The comment they don’t rust only holds true in the south everything up north rust where they salt the roads

"They don't get rust holes"

After 3 fuel pumps I cut the bed out and made a door to get to the fuel pump

I’m a Ford guy, but damn this is one of the only Chevys I’d take over some Fords, it’s probably because my grandpa had one when I was little, so it’s probably mostly nostalgia that brings me to it.

For the body and under carriage we use sheep fat here in Norway to stave off rust, works like a wonder especially with heavy salting.

Just be sure to fully diagnose your oil leak before replacing the rear main seal. I have a 99 Suburban that had an oil leak and a mechanic told me it's likely the rear main seal. Well, I got up under there myself and turns out it was the oil cooler lines.

Rocker panels rust like nobody's business

Great video. I appreciate your sense of humor. I've had two of these GMT400 trucks. To me, their greatest weaknesses are as follows: front end steering & braking components - Calipers stick, brake lines go bad, rotors warp, idler arms wear out, alignment becomes difficult. Next, interior quality - this one is more of a problem of the era, and most Ford trucks should have come with super glue or Duck tape as a courtesy, but none the less. The interiors are like entirely ABS plastic and cannot handle years of heat/cycles and baking in the sun. Dashes fall apart. Vents & blend doors break. Knobs, switches and handles break off. Buy a bag of bulk interior and body panel clips. You'll need them. But I love these trucks. GM just announced these Small Block 350s can now be bought brand new, with improved components, made in America. After normal production ceased in the 2000s, they could be had as a 3rd party built crate engine out of Mexico, but that eventually halted as well. But no longer... Now you can buy a brand new engine for your 70s - low 2000s vehicle. That's how popular these engines are.

I got a million miles on mine and it still pulls a trailer no problem.. CHEVY SIL VER A DOOO

Thanks for the video. I had a 95, good bones, but the body was going and I found a 94 with a nice body. Love both of them. The engine out of my 95 has 250000 miles and no leak nor burns oil. Great off road. Almost bullet proof.

I miss my 94, it was just a truck with a motor that always started up. That's all I needed.
