Q: How to clean and lube slip yoke on 99 GMC Sierra 1500 truck?
I need to know how to clean and lubricate the slip yoke on my 99 GMC Sierra 1500 truck. I am a repair novice, but I am wondering if I can do this on my own. I know the lubriant I need (GM Special Lubriant #12345879), but I do not know how to clean and lubricate the slip yoke. If someone would be so kind as to walk me through the process step-by-step (perhaps with service manual?), I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
A: just sand it down with any sandpaper and then use any grease or oil to lube it. Like the other guy said if not rusted no need to clean it. You dont need a special lube they just do that to make money. Just like on lawnmowers they say use expensive oil all you have to use is regular SAE 30

Q: where is the o2 sensor located on a 2005 GMC Sierra 1500 crew cab z71, in front of the cat or behind it?
Was just curious where the o2 sensor is located on a 2005 GMC Sierra 1500 crew cab Z71, because I wanna put true duals, no cats with glasspacks!!?
A: You have 4 O2 sensors and 2 cats. You have 2 O2 per cylinder bank. So there is one sensor before the cat and one after the cat, for each side.
Running no cats will screw you, engine performance will be effected. Purchase some aftermarket high-flow units if you feel that you must get rid of the stock units.

Q: What is the cheapest way to make my 1988 GMC Sierra 1500 into a cool mudding truck? lifted and everything.?
I’m only a 17 year old girl in good ol Wisconsin so i don’t have a butt load of money to go spend. But I’d really like to put a lift kit on it, bigger tires, get a paint job, and I’m already getting a glasspack so the muffler is fine. Any suggestions as to where I should go about making my truck totally awesome?
A: the best advise i can give you is go slow on your modifications.
you want to have a safe ride, by lifting your truck, and adding bigger tire you will be changing the performance of your engine (lower rpm’s and power) and if it is and automatic, this could cause your transmission to run hotter due to shifting and gear hunting) to correct this then you need to change gear ratio’s and while you are at it you might as well add limited slip and/or lockers. since you have a 1500 (1/2 ton) if you are running a 10″ differential then the largest tires you should run are 33″s. if you go bigger then you will need to swap for 3/4 or one ton axles.
you will have plenty of time to make it cool. drive it for a while and figure out if you really need a trail/mud runner and if you do then take a look at the major 4×4 lift kit manufacturers like superlift or trailmaster.
all of this cost $$$.

Q: How to fit a after market speakers into a 2003 GMC Sierra 1500 Ext.Cab?
I am planning to replace my stock speakers with after market speakers. I ask because as was taking off the stock speakers, I notice that my 6.5 and 4×6 after market speakers will not stay on unless I drill holes to keep them in place. Do I need a speaker adapter to keep my new speakers in place without drilling holes or do I need to?
A: There are adapter plates sold at car part stores. Drilling is the easiest and cheapest way though. Before you do anything, remember, you cannot un-drill a hole. Measure first and mark before drilling.
