    Thanks for the education. I contacted both my local Chevy Dealer and Chevy HQ trying to find the axle ratio of my 1998 Silverado. Both blew me off telling me the truck was too old and their records don't go back that far. When I ask both of them if they had any suggestions on how I might find the info, both said "NO". Neither of the mentioned the RPO Codes in my glove box which, after I viewed your video, those codes and the link you provided, enabled me to find the RPO Code descriptions and figure it out!! THANKS FOR NOTHING CHEVROLET!!!!! I'll remember you "Customer Service" next time I buy any vehicle.

    hey brother i realize this is an older video but i've just bought my first duramax...a 2009 like in your video. and its exactly like you talked about there at the end. i got it at an auction and whoever had it had done quite a bit of aftermarket stuff to it, and i'm trying to figure out what all exactly that was and what came factory....but there's no owner manual, nor unfortunately any little extra book like you showed thats specific to the duramax. i haven't had a bit of luck finding any of those publications....you don;t happen to have any advice for me as far as where to find an owners manual and/or a service/shop manual do you??? i know its a shot in the dark but i'm out of ideas....thx for any help you got

      @MikeL-vu7jo 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for the reply , one more question if you would , I'v owned my 09 1500 Silverado since I purchased it new , I've had a random amount of repairs over the years some serious some not so serious , my latest issue is a fairly large amount of end play at the passenger rear axle , when I jack the rear up off the ground I can grab the tire and pull in and out about 1/8 inch or so , it's enough that it can be heard when driving , you have the same truck as I do have you noticed this end play , also it's just the passenger side. The driver side is tight , What are your thoughts on this ? Thank you . Also the truck has 115,000. Miles , thanks .

    • @southernsilverado5349
      @southernsilverado5349  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I no longer have the truck in this video. My new truck is a 2006 duramax. When I had the 2009 there was no such play in the axle, and I traded it in with 105k miles on it. I do know that there are pins that keep the axles in place so that is the first thing I would look into. They are most likely wore down and are allowing some slack to occur. I am no master mechanic by any means and this might not be the problem at all, but that is the first thing I would check.

    Very good info. I just purchased an 07 Silverado crew cab and I've been unable to find some of the rpo codes online. Perhaps you could help. They are: AL0, DK8, JF3, JIG, KG3, LY2, NT8, NX7, NZ4, QPR, R6K, R6P, R9N, R9Z, SSB, YD5, ZPR, 1SZ, 6HH, 7HH, 88B, and 88I. If you're unable to decipher them all, that's fine. But any help would be much appreciated.

      That website has a list of most of the codes you have listed. I know myself that the code that begins with "LY" is your engine code. My truck has the code LY6 and has the 6.0. According to the code, your truck has the 4.8. The other ones I am unfamiliar with, but hopefully this website helps. Thank you very much for viewing!

      There are two codes that relate to remote start on the vehicle.
      AP8: Remote start prep package which means it is capable of remote start if taken to the dealership
      AP3: Remote start equipped
      If you pause my video at 1:42 and look at the top line you can see the AP3 code and my vehicle does have remote start. Thank you for checking out the video and I will be more than happy to answer your question if I am able to.

    • @southernsilverado5349
      @southernsilverado5349  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Michael Mullner The RPO code “G80” is for a limited slip rear end and not the gear ratio itself. I would run the other drivetrain code to see what the code for a 3.42 and a 3.73 is.
