HOW MUCH Did I Spend on this DURAMAX at Auction???

I purchased a 2005 GMC 2500HD with a Duramax diesel engine at a Copart auction. In this video, I introduce the new project and we figure out if I got a good deal.

$3400 is a steal for this truck especially considering you're willing and capable of doing all the repairs yourself. Seeing the clean interior, new-ish batteries, and all the fluids at the correct levels are promising signs about how it was maintained. This truck is definitely worthy of being saved. You could replace every single part on this truck and the cost wouldn't even come close to that of a new 2wd base model 1500 gasser let alone a crew cab 2500 with a diesel and 4wd. Plus its more reliable and way cheaper to fix than a new truck. IMO Chevy already hit their peak with these early 2000's pickups. As you said these trucks hit a sweet spot between being modern enough to be comfortable and powerful, while still being reliable, simple to repair, and not loaded with tons of BS electronics and emissions garbage. I just don't see Chevy ever topping this generation of pickups.

[@makojuicedaniel9307]

3400, thanks thats all i wanted to know

Exactly why I’m hanging on to my 2007.5 2500HD Duramax even with 335,000 miles! And it’s a southern truck, Zero rust 👍

Nice truck! 👍

[@dankanchovy1963]

Take care of it , it will last you , my friends dad has a 2001 2500HD but it’s a 6.0 & has 500k miles

[@johnsipes4422]

Yessir. My dads got a 09 2500 Duramax with 345,000 miles and it’s had no engine issues. Had many minor issues with the interior, drive train and other small things. And some more major issues with drivetrain like the transfer case and transmission but the engine has been outstanding. He takes care of his stuff really good so that helps.

[@markm.9590]

Wow, a steal at even 4 thousand ! I bought a 2005 Tahoe with 150 thousand miles and paid 7 thousand! And No Duramax! I looked but what I found with Duramax was a 1/2 ton Van and the Trucks were off the charts High priced ! 12 thousand & up. I'd love to have that Engine.

[@woodscreekworkshop9939]

That is a stock driveshaft, fuel cooler and fuel lines tend to rust and leak. Looks like most of the brake lines were replaced, that’s good. Stock tie rods are undersized and likely worn out, will likely need an upgrade to a stronger aftermarket along with the pitman arm. Also the intermediate steering shaft most likely makes clunky sound, replace with newer design. My 2005 is going strong, congrats Waldo!

[@WaldosWorld]

Thanks for the info! Actually, I did notice that the tie rod ends were flexing quite a bit when I was checking the ball joints. Sounds like a good upgrade candidate 👍

[@polaroy2]

Great find! LLYs have the largest turbos out of the Duramax family, therefore a larger turbo horn should be installed to keep temperatures down. The EGR valve should also be looked at as that is a weak link too. My LB7 Duramax has 326K miles and climbing, it's a great platform!

Sweet deal Waldo. I just picked up a duramax myself at Copart. 06’ LBZ cat eye extended cab 4x4. Way more miles though & I paid more than you. So you got an incredible deal. I’ll try to get a video posted myself in the next week or so. Good luck on the build and that’s a great truck you scored for an incredible good price.

Nice, congrats on the truck!

[@chadm3985]

Love that green color! I have the same year and spec Sierra Duramax. I searched for a loooooong time to find a stock truck, rust free, and with just over 100k at the time. Regarding the exhaust, I used a 4" Diamond Eye with muffler. It's barely louder than stock but it really helped the towing EGTs.

[@offthegridoutdoors9666]

Great buy. My 98 dodge with 550k miles and 06 with 300k i spray my used oil on the frame, doors, rockers, etc. every fall and have zero rust on either after all the years and salt no surface rust even frame and undersides still look new just an idea for your trucks.

Looking forward to see how you repair that frame. There seems to be enough rust that it's mostly turned to dust.

[@WaldosWorld]

We'll get a closer look once the bed comes off, but in my experience, it's mostly the crossmembers that rust out. They're easy to replace. If the main frame rails rusted through, that would make it much harder to fix 👍

[@bodymanruss518]

@@WaldosWorld I am a collision tech in PA and if I'm not mistaken,...Gm sells a service part( back half of frame) that you can replace,...as long as it has no diamond in the measurements. From the looks of it,....you will be replacing more than just crossmembers. At the very least,...you will be plate patching some of the rails in the back 1/3 section. Pick 4 symmetrical holes under frame and do a x measurement to make sure she is square first,...before you do anything. Hmm if ya got anymore questions. Russ

I don't mind the frame repair so much, but the body work is not something I enjoy. Unfortunately, it's either do the body work myself or pay a HUGE amount of money to buy a truck that doesn't need the work. Oh well, at least it makes decent KZbin content 🤷‍♂️😂

[@AcmeRacing]

Even my 2002 Silverado WT had automatic headlights. They were standard equipment. I didn't have the crossmember rust, but I had to replace the leaf spring mounts in the back. When I got rid of it, the back bumper had holes through it and the bottoms of the doors were getting soft. Brake lines, fuel lines, and evap lines all had to be replaced at one point too. GMT800s are good trucks, but they are prone to rust.

[@peteschiavoni]

Brandon is going to be a great build. I think an aluminum skirted flatbed would look great and give you at least 2 small toolboxes. For the vibration also check exhaust mounts and make sure no baffles are broken in the muffler. They can give bad vibration also. Love your The Office shirt. Very cool. I hope Aspen likes her new ride. If you ever need awesome snow tires for that check Bridgestone Blizzak tires.

[@WaldosWorld]

Hey Pete, thanks for the tip! I'm sure Aspen will love her new truck 😂

[@mrmotofy]

@Waldo's World Check the drivers engine mount they tend to tear rubber off the steel from the torque. Some have throughbolted to limit some of that. Some claim huge decrease in vibration from a fluid crank damper. The control arm bushings are probably splitting rubber by now. And get an EFILIVE tune for better operation etc

[@williamdalbey4867]

Waldo, Ill be following this build closely. I have a 99 sierra sle z71 4x4. It is a single cab short bed fleetside truck. Im only the 2nd owner. It has 150, 000 miles on the ls4.8. The rockers are gone and the wheel arches are shot. One frame rail has some rust through. I picked up a rust free Texas bed for it very reasonably. One of the fuel lines along the frame has started to leak. So ive purchased all new fuel fuel lines and stainless steel brake lines from inline tube. They are high quality and vry affordable. Since youll have your bed off anyway, you might consider them. Im having the frame media blasted and repaired before I coat it liberally with por15. Looking forward to your progress

[@WaldosWorld]

For the brake lines, I have copper nickel tubing that I'll be using, but I'll definitely take a look at the fuel lines -- they're a lot easier to do with the bed removed 😂

[@nominalvelocity]

I'd say that's a fantastic purchase and a fantastic price. One of the other Achilles heels of the early year duramax was the injectors, so said an old friend of mine who ran the classes for GM technicians. I think the LLY engine in yours mostly resolved that issue, and I think you don't have to remove the valve covers if need to get at them. Sadly, I've never had good luck in winning any of the auctions in my vicinity. All of the ones I've participated in seem to go way too close to retail to justify buying a salvage vehicle that will need a fair bit of work.

So either you got a great deal, or you're going to be finding out pretty rapidly that it has a lot of issues. Head gasket, oil cooler and the list goes on.

@@WaldosWorld you're welcome and this is true! I've been taking my truck to TMS Diesel in Weare because I don't have the means to do a lot of the work myself at home. Well, I'm sure I could but without a lift some stuff is just too big of a hassle. I've yet to determine how I feel about them yet. Kind of still to be determined, but they definitely have some type of ego driven attitude, like "we're so busy and so good we don't need your business, so if you don't like what's going on you can go somewhere else" type deal. At least that's the way it seems. They never used those words with me. h However the 1st time I had a complaint, the guy on the phone told me if "I'm going to swear I can just come get my keys". This is after spending over 25,000 at their shop. On warranty parts that I have to go through them to have the warranty made good on. So... depending on how they handle things this time, I may have some interesting KZbin videos on that situation coming up in the near future.
