  1. Yeah the burb was a auto ride. This truck was a long bed originally. I shortened the chassis right after I bought it and put a stepside bed on it. The truck was in a slide off and the original bed was damaged and I just happened upon a stepside bed and well that was that. I'm wanting to say that's been 5 or 6 years ago time kinda Flys. Anyways modifying the chassis wouldn't be much of a deal I wouldn't think. I guess I'll have to give it a think. I figured I'd ask a little about that chassis here.
  2. Do any of you know how much difference there is in the frames between the truck and Suburban. I have a 05 Suburban and that thing just rides so good and it's 4x4. I was thinking about swaping the RCSB body over to the burb chassis. I like the truck and just always wondered what it would be like on that chassis.
  3. I got it fixed the passenger side alternator plug was unplugged. When I got that taken care of my codes for the fan and the charging circuit went away. She's got a clean bill of health.
  4. He all , I have a 2010 Duramax Ambulance that has the charge light on. I normally wouldn't ask cause it would be pretty easy to figure out but this thing has 2 alternators. It is throwing charge and runs up around 14volt on the gauge, but I have the charge light on and that is throwing a code that flashes on the message center thing. The ambulance was tipped over on and landed on its side and could've messed something up in the wiring, then again it could just have a bad alternator. How could I check the circut hat turns the charge light on to see if thats the culprit 1st? I've got a fan speed code I need to dig into also I believe is for the cooling fan which could be wiring related. The main trouble is the charging for now.
  5. I'm talking to a guy that builds stand alone harnesses. I'm not entirely sure theres enough wire to do what I want on the factory harness. There is quite a difference in engine bay length between the 2.
  6. So I bought this Ambulance with a Duramax the other day for less than half of what just a motor would have cost. 2010 Chevy Express 3500 ambulance. I own a 86' GMC Suburban C2500 that is in pretty nice shape for a old squarebody with a 350/400 combo. The ambulance was layed over on it's side and stamped as a salvage title. From what little driving I have done with it the motor and trans are great. The suburban drives good but I overheated the motor last year on the way home from camping and I had replaced the heads which were both cracked but I had been thinking about a cummins swap when this Duramax popped up and with everything there to make a full swap I figured whats the worst that could happen. I done some research on the job and studied a tread that was done that's similar to mine with a van motor and wiring harness being fitted into a dually truck. I would like to retain the cruise, tow/haul, & manual shift if at all possible.
