Thread: 2002 Chevy Silverado extended cab composite bed

The truck is a 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500 extended cab with a composite bed, not stepside. it has 220,000 miles on it but the engine, transmission and transfer case have been rebuilt. the truck has been upgraded with flex fuel fuel injectors. future mods might include caltracs, a return fuel system, a dual fuel pump system, a turbo, a coil over setup for the front end and a 12 bolt rear end.

looks much better with the right grill on it.

what condition is the cab in? it still got seat covers and foam?

i sewed up the seam on my tahoe, leather also, a year later my work is still holding up well.

My friend had one with the plastic bedsides. Not a bad idea if you ask me, I liked the design.

You may have a point there because the structure may be beefier. I believe the reason for that option is corrosion resistance.

5.3?

Google "GM RPO Codes" Should have multiple site results. Probably need to bounce between 2 or 3 to find a match for every one. I have yet to find a full list that matches each of my codes.

Looks like it's smaller than a 6.5 bed and more like a 5.9in bed but hard to tell from the pictures. They did that with the later years too, very odd option.

A few things though. 2002 should be cable throttle body and factory return style fuel system. The drive by wire trucks went return less. Dual fuel pumps is silly, a single walbro 450 will support something stupid like 700hp on pump gas. 12 bolts are cool but a 10 bolt with a correct rear end setup will handle a turbo setup just fine.

A 4L80e is a must, the 4L60e will grenade in a heartbeat.

I doubt that truck has auto level suspension or computer controlled anything like that.

Those years don't even have stabilitrak and it's rare to find one of those early trucks with factory traction control.

You're glove box has all the options that truck should have come with.

It's a meaningless RPO code from everything I read. It has zero information past those three words.

It's not a computer controlled suspension by any means on that particular truck.


Here are a bunch of other RPO codes with the same wording. Sounds like GM just had a generic code for what I want to call "mass produced parts" that everything used regardless of trim level.

lol private thinks his junk is special. its a junk truck, should have bought something worthwhile.

Someplace I have a link to a website that makes replacement seat covers, ranging from $120-$300 depending on if you want "leather" or leather.
