GMC S15 Jimmy

[whyismykittyabutt55]

Oh yeah one more question haha i have the same rims but I hate the dull metal coloration. Did you just spraypaint yours

[whyismykittyabutt55]

So how do you go about getting and installing those bottom lights that are on your front bumper? I have the same truck and I was thinking about adding those kinds of lights but I dont even know what they are called or where to look. Thanks for any help.

[KazeNiNosete]

yo tengo una 1985 y no se que hacer con ella... ja ja ja...

[PanthersFanboy]

nice truck.  check out my 1994 blazer

[jordan31483]

stock version is better

[cbr6864]

these are killer trucks i had a 94 they have a few problems one is EGR valve is always getting clogged up, easy fix take it off and clean it. But a huge problem is the fuel system they have what looks like a spider with the injectors at teh end on each line. the lines all cross and rub which creates pin hole leaks. which will make truck run like shit

[TheBigmike5]

sweet truck ma n. i got a 93 gmc jimmy 4 door and thats what i want to to mine. i want it to look like a tank. dam thats a nice looking truck

[dtpchilli4life]

Just a thought, I can't grasp why dudes put (keep) running boards on these things. I'd remove those, along with the.. Spoiler(?) thing.. And the little rain deflector on the underside of the front bumper. Then I'd put a 92-93 front clip/chrome grill on it and lower it 2-3". The two-door 4x4 Jimmy and blazer s-series could look so fucking good.. And they perform too, with the Vortec 4.3 anyway. That's it, I'm gonna go buy one.

[holymuledeer]

Lookin gooood.

[LittleMan00707]

I too have a 1989 GMC S-15 Jimmy 4.3lt 4X4. It is ruff for body. Have you pulled the engine out of one before? I bought a Haynes repair manual. I knwo the 4.3s are a best of a engine. Is it difficult pulling the engine out if you have done it before. I am looking to turn it into a Typhoon.

[bleedout2]

hey what kind of bush guard is that on the front?



[Dizzles]

personally i dont like those running boards or fender flares... i'd take those off or just take the running boards off

[ke228]

Nice. Looks more like a Typhoon now!

[sexybologna111]

Does yours have the digital dash? Damn I miss my truck...

[X2N18]

how can i remove the spiler from the back it seens hard i dont want to brake the rear cristal do u have any idea how i can do this ?

[horseman3788]

@X2N18 hey bud, you can pop of the the covers on top of the spoiler with a screwdriver and beneath that are two screws. just undo those and the spoiler will come off. however there will still be two pieces that raise up to hold the spoiler that are part of the hinge. you'll have to find two flat hinges and swap them out in order to get a clean look.

Thanks for the comment

Cheers!

[X2N18]

@horseman3788 thanks buddy its been a while !!!!

[solecaliburr]

[boobsmaster]

[nonstop454]

[taz275]

[sergioxnn]

Looks great, I just got a 1989 Gypsy, it stored for about 8 years. Is like new. The only thing I have to buy is the tires and a coupkle of seals from the windows. 34000 original miles. Will post some pics for people to chek it. Congrats on yours.

[hink96]

nice truck i have a mint 1986 jimmy with 350 horse power in it i do mad burnouts everywhere

[revenso]

Have you ever had problems with the digital gauges?

[horseman3788]

I have the analogue gauges. But I do know that they are usually problematic.

[101alva]

any answers.. my fuel meter isnt working need a new cluster ? or a new flost in the fuel tank.. i dropped the fuel tank an everythin looks normal

[scotts3kids]

very nice. i am looking at one of these but how much you think have you spent on all the parts?

[pogojose23]

[iLOVECRiSTiAN090408]

hey this is my sis page but i have a s-15 sierra classic and u gave me a good idea on the bumper and the rims check mine when i post it on the future

[amyandmorgan]

nice truck but it looked waaaayyyyy better before

[horseman3788]

Fair enough, too each their own. Although this video was made a while ago and I have changed a fair amount since this was done. If you're interested, check out my most recent update video 'GMC Jimmy'

[fordsRockForever]

cool man car..

[69sparticus]

nice ride

[horseman3788]

Thank you! I have changed A LOT since this was made. I really need to make an update video :P

[dirtjumperjad]

why did u take the bull bar off the front? i thought it looked kinda cool...

[drewme1010]

Have the same year, But I cut the TOP OFF my S10 Jimmy.

and have to hope it doesn't rain.

D~

[horseman3788]

Haha that's what I want to do with mine. But that's the only problem I can see lol. I wonder if it's possible to fabricate a cage and a canvas top?

[BlazerNIN]

I got a question where did you get the paint for the wheels because id like to have my wheels painted black on my 93 Blazer

[horseman3788]

Of all places...I bought a few cans of flat black paint and grey primer from Canadian Tire. It was just basic spray paint. Try to find something that claims to be durable for stone chips and the wear and tear your wheels will see. Hope this helps.

[tmb605]

Nice looking jimmy, takes some work to keep up with all the problems an old vehicle come up with while trying to upgrade. My son has a 94 2dr 4x4 and likes what you did with the billet grille, wants to change that chrome look to black. Where did you find the billet grille? Have been looking all over the web and have not had any luck in finding one that will fit a 94. May have to get out the hammer and start to fabricate one to fit.

[MUDINredneck]

yeah man i resetnly bought a 99 jimmy and im doin some work on it. but lately its just been engine work liek alternator etc. but that looks really good just i dont like the blackrims you should use chrome!

[horseman3788]

Thanks. Yeah I had to do quite bit to my truck. New engine and a lot more. I guess the usual things that go on a 20 year old vehicle.

[DRPraeuner]

im sorry but i HATE running boards they make it look like its for old people that need assistance or something, oh i got running boards off my blazer for sale who wants em?

[horseman3788]

lol no problem. I have actually removed the running boards since i made this video. I think it may be time to make an update video since i have changed a few other things as well.

[crazyfarm31]

great job on it!! you should post it on cardomain!

[horseman3788]

thats a good idea. i will look into that! :)

[themessengerofgod112]

nice my first was a 87 gmc jimmy S-15, with a 2.8L V6. Not much horse power though about 180HP. Have Fun

[horseman3788]

Thanks for the comments. my first car was a 95 pontiac grand am. it was a good car, but after having the jimmy, i cannot see going back to cars. i love the way a truck rides and feels. before the grand am though our family car was an 89 blazer...it was sold for a mazda 3 in 2004. let's just say i never got over the loss :)

[meiermotorsports]

looks good. my first car was an 88 blazer and looking at picking up an 89 or 91 jimmy tonight

[horseman3788]

very nice. seems like you have the jimmy/blazer bug! :P

[crezzyman]

What kind of auxiliary lights are those? They look brighter than your headlights from that angle. How bright are they?

[horseman3788]

They're just basic 'Blazer Original Equipment' brand driving lights. They're 55w and they are brighter than my headlights on low beam which are 35w and 65w on high.

[jovanvictoria]

nice jimmy u still have it

[horseman3788]

Thank you. I think I should make another video. I have changed some things since I put this up. Took the running boards off, moved the lights, took off the pin-stripes and got slightly bigger wheels and tires.

[FoximusPrime]

Very nice ride. I have an 89 GMC S15. I wish it was a Jimmy. They're really cool.

[horseman3788]

That's awesome. I love it! Sorry if I'm mistaken but is yours the pick-up truck version (S10)? Because as far as I know S15 refers to the Jimmy SUV...

[FoximusPrime]

No it's an S15 pickup with a 4.3L in it. I had never heard of one myself and everyone always calls it an S10 but it's a 1989 GMC S15 High Sierra. Google it and you can find some pics.

[horseman3788]

Oh wow. I have never heard of that either, interesting. Kinda like the S10 Tahoe (SUV) or the S15 Jimmy Gypsy. I guess the lesser known models.

[Artyfil]

Nice video. What song is this? Check out my video of my 94 S15 Jimmy. :-D

[horseman3788]

Thank you. The song is Can't Stop the Rock by Fatboy Slim.

[kb8tot]

got to love the s15 jimmey i have a 1986 with a plow on it

[horseman3788]

oh nice! do you have any videos?

[marcmicco]

hey i love the balcked out look but u have go to get rid of the gay running boards. they hurt the entire look of the truck. they make it look like a grandpa jimmy. put some bigger meatier tires on it too it would look 100% better. but for the most part looks good dude.

[horseman3788]

thanks, if you check out my latest video you will see that i put new tires on it. they're a little bigger and they fill out the wheel well better.

[gtman70]

cool truck check out my blazer

[coulas]

Hey man, that is a really sweet Jimmy! I had a '93 for my first. And now I have a 2000 2 door! I love that yours is all blacked out. its amazing looking!! 4.3 vortec for life!

[MLH7686]

Awesome. I also have a 89 Gmc Jimmy. I bought it from a friend and he had a few things done to it. We have the same grille and it was recently painted. Also put flowmasters on it, I absolutly love it. Only thing I have a problem with is the Digital stuff inside, the odometer and what not doesn't work :( and sometimes all of it will just go blank. Kinda scary when you dont no how much gas you have left!!

[horseman3788]

oh geez, that has to be interesting :S mine has the traditional gauge cluster. i plan to put flowmasters on mine too. either 40's or super 40's. i am also looking into getting bigger wheels and tires, possibly some BF Goodrich KO's. the running board's and fender flares that are on it make the tire/wheel combination look too dainty for my liking.

[moparmaniac21]

Where'd you get that billet grille??

[horseman3788]

i bought it off of ebay. search for something along the lines of "billet grille gmc jimmy" or whatever vehicle you may be searching for.

[420witchdoctor]

OK, here's what I think: AWESOME!!! Couldn't help but think of how nice it would look with the GMC badge on that billet grille, but paint it red O_0.

[horseman3788]

hey. thanks, much appreciated :) i was considering doing that. i have the old badge off of the stock grille. however i want to keep everything blacked out, so i painted it. i am also having some difficulty mounting it as the billet grille isn't 100% compatible.

Do you have any vehicles that you are working on?

[420witchdoctor]

I have a '72 Bay Window VW bus that's slammed, and I have the top chopped. Lot's of interior mods to get a 327 Chev' into it. PosiTrac from a Catalina going in back too. I'm picking up a 1962 Volvo 544 2-door pretty soon, and that will be my daily driver sooner than later.

[Artyfil]

That is a gorgeous car. I have a four door 1994 S15 Jimmy. It is a great car. It's the last year they made them with that body style. Where did you get the grill guard in the first picture? Did you ever have problems with rust on the body?
