Transforming Our GMC Sierra 2500HD Duramax - Full Build From A to Z!

In this build series, we restore our tired old 2002 GMC Sierra 2500HD, 6.6L LB7 Duramax Diesel. We replace 90% of the body and add tons of awesome aftermarket parts. When we're finished, you won't be able to recognize this truck! This episode provides an overview of the entire build from A to Z.

Underrated, most definitely. Beautiful work, love the paint. Keep it up!

[@Motorbolt]

Thanks! Glad you like it!

[@T-HandyMill711]

Awesome build, I specially like the clips of working in the grass on your back and improvising a little lol I can def appreciate that! Did a lot of this on my 2000 Sierra, it wasn't easy. Looks great though, look forward to more

[@Motorbolt]

Thanks, glad you liked the video! We have a lot more cool projects in the queue, stay tuned 🤘

[@theSvrh]

Amazing job. Super motivating as i am about to start the body work/paint on my 2500 suburban. Just waiting on some warm weather!

[@Motorbolt]

Right on! Good luck with your project!

[@bobmarley-ni5rq]

Very good looking truck and perfect job 👌👌👌👌

[@Motorbolt]

Thank you!

[@STREETRACEN4U]

looks great!!

[@Motorbolt]

Thanks!

[@JoelsWorkshop]

Looks mint! The hood and paint especially just look so sick. Great compilation.

[@Motorbolt]

Thanks man, glad you like it!

[@Thrill569]

That gmc looks like a new truck now 👍

[@Motorbolt]

It sure does!

[@ThatWisco5.3]

wish I could redo my truck lol

[@briizcustoms9543]

Could you do videos where you are explaining what you’re doing to the vehicle as you work on it?

[@Motorbolt]

We actually did this! We have a full 11-episode playlist that explains the entire build.

[@josephdemarco1469]

this is awesome guys. I'll be in the Ottawa area in a few weeks, I'll be keeping an eye out. Im not quite as handy as you guys but I have an 03 LB7 Silverado that im going to convert to a Sierra and have some minor body work, swap the bed then have it painted (colour undecided).
can you please provide me with the name of the tint you used for the door handles and the fender liners? what did you used for the frame coating -- going to need that after pulling the bed, taking a steel brush tot he frame then putting it al back together.

[@Motorbolt]

Glad you like the truck! Hope everything goes well with yours. For the trim, we used Adam’s Black trim restorer. For the frame, we used Fluid film black.

[@JuanMejia-m4y]

Where can I get the lower bumper?

[@nismor3490]

Yoooo this is awesome! Where did you get the new bed? I’m looking for an 8 footer too

[@Motorbolt]

Glad you like it! We found it on marketplace a couple years ago. We have a parts truck that has a pretty good 8’ bed if you’re interested. Not sure how close you are to Ottawa though.

[@rileys681]

I have that exact truck but in silver and zero rust. Like the front bumper swap and hood. Curious about the hood tho looks like you modified it

[@Motorbolt]

Have a look at Episode 10 of the truck build series. We show exactly how to swap the hood from a Chevy 2500HD

[@rileys681]

@Motorbolt awesome! Just came across your channel. Cool stuff!

[@WildWillysProductions428]

What tunes are you running on the truck I want it for my truck

[@Motorbolt]

Check out Episode #8 in the truck build playlist. We give details about the tune

[@mitrexz6399]

Is that stock height or are you running a lift kit ?

[@Motorbolt]

We’re running a 3” lift from Rough Country

[@rileys681]

What's the hood?

[@conniewallace7870]

Where did you find the headlights and taillights?

[@goin200mph]

The truck looks amazing- it’s the first GMC of that era that I like the look of. However, repairing rust holes with bondo?!?! Yeah, that’s gonna hold up 😂

[@javieresquer1166]

Love the paint what cooor is that????❤

[@Motorbolt]

It’s called desert tan. We have a full episode of the painting process on our channel if you want to learn more!

[@nickrpg3881]

What plastic tint is that

[@Motorbolt]

We used Adam’s Black trim restorer.

[@bryden_smith]

Sweet build how long did this take

[@Motorbolt]

Too long 😂 We didn’t count the hours, but it was 2-year process altogether.

[@bryden_smith]

@@Motorbolt dang well looks great ima try to clean mine up a bit needs injectors and some other stuff at the moment that she’s good to go

[@Motorbolt]

@@bryden_smith right on, well good luck with everything!

[@schlabachcs]

Is the paint plasti dip

[@Motorbolt]

Yes it is. If you watch Episode 11 of the truck build playlist, we show the painting process and describe what we used.

[@Josh905]

What mudflaps are those. Maybe I missed it!

[@Motorbolt]

They’re universal mud flaps from Rallyarmor. You can learn more about them in Episode 6 of the truck build video series.

[@danemaddalena9674]

What's the name of the choice of paint

[@Motorbolt]

It’s Desert Tan Plasti Dip. Have a look at Episode 11 of the truck build playlist. We go into detail about the paint.

[@patrickgoggin1907]

Looks great but why not take cab and bed off and rust proof it and clean it up

[@Motorbolt]

We did!

[@devon.browning]

i love the video just really wish the music was not in the video. would be better to hear the video and not music

[@FF-po6gx]

Not a huge fan off Matt trucks… but whatever floats ur boat I guess!

[@Motorbolt]

To each their own!
