    T300 Mirror Heat Circuit

    Just looking at the mirrors and noticed that while the main mirrors are heated, the spot mirrors under them are not. I was thinking of getting larger 8" spot mirrors and moving the smaller spot mirrors to the top since its nearly impossible to see the upper part of the box. If I were to add...

    Van Body Radius Corners - Open or Closed

    Just installing some plywood and e-track and noticed the front corners have a 6-7" section (betwen the yellow lines) that is left open - you can see daylight, there is about a 1/2" gap. Is this normal or should I seal it up?

    3126 Governed RPM

    Is there somewhere I can find general specs (seems to be very little on cat's site) and/or does anyone know if all 3126 models have the same max governed rpm? Just setting up a Gearmaster and I'm not sure if they are all set for 2400. I know some say waste of money but having never driven a 10...

    Cutaway Van Body Lining

    I'm going to be removing these slats and install plywood/e-track. I see at the front corner there isn't vertical rib and the slats extend out past the first rib. So when I go to install the plywood and e-track should the e-track also exend forward of the first rib and then add an aluminum L...

    KW Steering Wheel Removal

    OK, I got this late model wheel I want to swap on the T300, on the new style ones the cover just pulls off to gain access to the hub. How do the older ones come off............just pull? And will I need a steering wheel puller to get if off or ?

    E Track Length Available

    I need to get some E track and it seems online and locally they only have it up to 10" lengths yet I'm pretty sure I've seen it (installed) in full lengths - ie: 24" van has a single 24 span for each row, my truck has F track with a full length single span. I know this is mostly for shipping...

    Chain Up Tool

    There was a thread about chains not long ago and I ran across something called snap-on chains. Trouble is they only come in either 5 or 9 bar models. While watching that video again on youtube I spotted this tool that looks to make chain installation quite fast and easy for either singles or...

    T300 Exhaust Conversion

    I want to convert this vertical stack to a horizontal. If I add the frame brackets can I remove and reuse the vertical muffler by adding a straight or flex pipe to connect to the cut pipe and add a 45 degree outlet or will I need a new one?

    Do regular automotive ones stand up in trucks (T300 if it matters) or do you need the OEM type ones?

    Savanna Computers

    Can GMC Savanna ecm's be programed to limit top speed and will they display idle percentage or is this asking too much?

    6.0 Vortec

    Are these engines any good on reliability and longevity? I was looking for a 5 or 6 year old diesel around $15K but a dealer has an 07 GMC cutaway, 21K miles - price reduced from $25.5K to $21.5K. Truck is for city use with short highway runs mixed in - I need around 40K miles per year for 3-5...

    3126 w/10spd Shift Points

    Well it looks like I may have to try driving this T300 before getting some lessons on shifting a 10 speed, there's only about 10 potential stops between the dealer and where I need to get it for an inspection and traffic should be minimal on a weekend. I know the procedure, 1 through 5 -...

    Used T300 & Van Upgrades

    Looked at a used T300 today, just looking for thoughts on it. Truck looks to be in nice shape, no body damage to truck or van, no significant rust (other than parts of the lift) and price looks to be pretty good. 2003 T300 Day Cab (ex Paclease) Cat 3126-250 187500 miles Eaton 10 spd 12/21K...

    KW Cab Mounts

    Been trying to peek under cabs but this might be easier. Can a T300/370 be converted to air ride cab mounts? I assume they don't offer then from the factory but since its the same as the other B cabs, what about a retro fit?

    Pete 384 Straight Truck

    Yesterday while on the hunt for a new donut shop I stumbled upon that Pete ST I've seen on the road now and then. The donut shop had closed its doors some time ago and I was just about to leave when I looked down the alley next to it and found this. Turns out its a 384, has what looks to be a...

    Isuzu City Trucks

    Anyone have any experience with Isuzu NPR's? I'm wondering if the smaller (14.5K) ones are any good and what the lifespan of the 175hp diesels is. Looking at getting one from Ryder, strictly city use, they seem to be pretty clean, well taken care of, not abused and most have mileage figures...

    Landing Gear Placement

    It seems there is no set position for landing gear placement for and aft. Does it matter if they are set further forward near the (tandem) drives, further back or does it really matter?
