GMC K3500 Parts

General Motors manufactured the GMC K3500 pickup truck between 1988 and 2002 for one-ton functionality within its C/K series lineup and brought continuous engineering improvements to its production period. GMC K3500 customers could choose their power source between gasoline and diesel options using a 4.3L V6 and either a 5.0L V8 or a 6.5L turbocharged diesel V8. The standard V6 engine gives the GMC K3500 200 horsepower measurement but the V8 power unit delivers 230 horsepower alongside 285 lb-ft torque that yields exceptional GMC K3500 driving performance. Different transmission types affect performance output from both the three-speed THM-400 and four-speed 700R4 and four-speed 4L80-E and five-speed NV3500 and five-speed 5LM60 systems. GMC K3500 machines with four-wheel drive featured a solid front axle because durability and loading capability were more important than smooth handling. The chassis' frame presents a fully welded construction where its boxed front section boosts strength along with additional galvanized steel protections against corrosion. The GMC K3500 receives dual benefits from its aerodynamic design elements which include a flush grille along with sedan-style doors that improve fuel economy. Using original GMC K3500 parts allows vehicle owners to achieve continued reliability and performance because the sections align with factory standards for genuine GMC components.
