    I’d like to see more service videos on this truck. Diff service or cleaning up anything leaking on this GMC. In short, making this thing mint again. Maybe some interior improvements/ mods as well. Lights, steering wheel etc….

    I just acquired a 2005 sierra, and subsequently I started looking for videos on this vehicle, which is how I ran across your videos. And I’m definitely picking up on some good ideas and things to do with my truck. I’ve really been enjoying watching and learning some of the ins and outs of this truck. Thank you for the good information.

    When checking ball joints, try and jack from the lower control arm so that the suspension doesn’t droop all the way out. Get the tire a few inches off the ground and then slide a pry bar under it and pry up and down. Sometimes on an IFS jacking from the frame to check a ball joint and allowing the suspension to droop out will hide a sloppy ball joint. Just a suggestion. Also, great way to identify worn steering components is to have a helper start the truck and wiggle the steering wheel back and forth with the tires on the ground while you crawl under and visually inspect each component. You’ll be able to easily see any play in steering components this way.

    I have a 2006 Sierra 4WD also. Awesome truck since I bought it new. Get ready to pull your instrument cluster, replace the stepper motors and resolder all the cracked solder joints. They pretty much all go bad. There is also a steering shaft clunk issue (you will feel it at low speeds going through parking areas), on these that is easily remedied by packing grease into the steering shaft tube that the shaft goes through. Last year of the great trucks! After that they started with the cylinder management nonsense.

    Awesome truck brother, I've always had GMCs and I love em. Last July I found an 02 crew cab GMC 2500hd with 86,000 miles on it, had to go all the way to new jersey from Colorado to pick her up. Pretty excited about all the mods I'll be doing, the biggest being a lift and tires since I almost got stuck elk hunting in some deep snow. I was thinking about a cold air intake too but my engine is stalk and probably won't make much difference, plus it'll probably just trigger the check engine light. I'll probably just go with a KnN drop in filter. As for Mods for your truck, I'd go with an exhaust, maybe a 7 inch BDS lift with 35s. Would look pretty sweet. But there's a bunch of other things you could do too like diff covers, new spark plugs and wires, optima battery, rainx windshield wipers with rainx 0 degree washerfluid, coolant flush, change transmission fluid, kryptonite steering components, wheel bearings and upper control arms. Possibilities are endless lol
