Heed his warning. The Chevy trucks are notorious for their brake lines rotting out. I have had to replace them on every Chevy truck we have owned except our 2015 HD2500 (so far). The worst part is they rot through and with little or no warning. You are going down the road and suddenly you lose the front or rear brakes. NOT a good thing especially pulling a trailer. GM says 1998 through 2003 but I have replaced them on my 1998 and my 2004 so I think they have those numbers are a little off. I just bought myself a newer truck as well to replace my 2004 HD2500 with 220,000 miles. It has been a fantastic truck but I kind of like rocker panels and the 04 no longer has any. I replaced it with a Silver truck I saw on sYc recently. Great truck and an even better seller.

Oh, and congratulations Ryan on your new acquisition.
