Has anyone ever addeda factory cruise control system to a 93ish pickup? I've found a LD2500 but it doesn't have cruise and I like my DDs to have it. Just wondering how difficult it would be.
 
That is pretty neat, but I was wanting to use an OE setup. There are some you-pulls near by and thought it may be pretty simple. Thanks though.
 
93-ish?

Not my forte of years, but it is easy to add to the '80's trucks, I assume with a similar/same column adding factory is just as easy that vintage? Really just need to know if the ECM/PCM controlled cruise, or if it was still a separate module for cruise. If separate, should be a real easy add.

I was told this could be adapted to the factory control stalk - of course it'd be different under the hood, but unless you were doing a OE spec restore I'd think getting rid of the vaccum controls would be a good thing!
 
Looks to me like what GM used.

I'm pretty sure a google search of GM electric cruise servo swap or mod will net instructions on how to use a later electric servo onto systems like ours. I'm just not completely familiar with the '88+ C/K's to know for certain it was what was on the '87-91 R/V trucks. I assume yes, other than for things other than how it actually operated.

S10's and Camaro's were using those electric servo's somewhere around the same time the trucks were being built, I'd be surprised if they needed anything different than the 2000PPM VSS signal the vacuum setups needed.
 
Fuse, cruise same thing. :)

Doesn't surprise me. That it wasn't in ECM/PCM.

Should be able to find a truck same body style/column, unplug/take everything connected to cruise, and drop it in your truck.
 
That's kinda what I was thinking. I figured there would be something online, but my google-fu sucks pretty hard sometimes and I've been looking at some other heavier duty trucks that already have cruise. Thanks guys.
