Driving the 1993 K1500 5-speed Blazer

[@01KINGCOBRA]

Nice looking truck I myself have a 1995 GMC Yukon with a 5speed with 4WD and it is awesome to drive, no one ever believes me that its a manual.

[@andresgab]

I think they are very rare I just buy one today! 1994 yukon 5 speed 4x4 too, this is the only Video i can find. We so lucky for sure! Enjoy yours I would enjoy mine! 🤠

[@612eddie]

@@andresgab Hey man I just bought the exact same one you have. Only problem is it’s automatic…I’m looking into making it manual. What transmission is needed to do so? Or what transmission does yours have ? Would be awesome if you can give me that info. Would be GREATLY appreciated!

this brings back memories of riding in my dads old 91 chevy work truck. I guess he shoud have never got rid of it, because now we don't even have a truck. We used to have two of them.

I have a 92 with the 5 speed, wouldn't trade it for the world. Absolutely love it. May upgrade to the 6 speed tho.

Hillbilly Jim What kind of fuel mileage do you get with yours and what engine is in it? I'm looking for this gen blazer or silverado for my daily driver. I'm getting 10 mpg in my 2wd f150 and I heard these get better even with the 5.7

Thats quite a treasure u have there. I have a white 1994 z71, sadly its a 4l60e but these trucks are bullet proof.

Awesome! I want one of these trucks at the moment I think there so cool. I had a 79 k5 I just got rid of love these old blazer

[@rangerpru]

nice one! noticed you had an air freshener hanging from your rear view mirror like many people do. i was once pulled over driving through a dinky town. i hadn't done a damn thing wrong. i asked the cop why he pulled me over. he said my air freshener impeded my view of the road. we all know that was a pathetic excuse to pull me over, but apparently a legal one. i don't hang anything from my mirror anymore.

what model 5 speed is it? I'm not well versed in gm trucks I'm more of a dodge guy, but my buddy is wanting a 5 speed for his 82 he don't tow or anything so a lighter duty one would be fine. Just trying to figure out what years and models came with what

+cumminstd90 It's a Getrag MG5/NV3500.

[@cumminstd9090]

+WhoSaidTyler ok thanks

[@bo2zombslayer]

+cumminstd90 also to add to that the getrag and the nv are the same externally however internals are a might different for the getrag had a 4 shift rail design with a selector finger to switch between rails which was a cast steel part prone to breaking (I know I've done it) where as the nv3500 introduced in 93 had a single shift rail design with a little beefier internals

[@thud9797]

@@mattconner8469 The NV4500 with the granny low gear was also available in the 1500 and the Blazer as an option.
