This is a video that several have asked about. What are the differences in years in the nbs silverado and sierra. What year of silverado and sierra do I like best? What changes were made in the nbs silverado and Sierra? Which is the best NBS and Why? I try to answer all the differences and explain why I like one over the other. The GMT800 or the NBS GM Trucks ran from 1999-2006 and 2007 Classic. It is commonly referred to as the NBS or New Body Style. It replace the OBS or Old Body Style. It is a very popular model and easy to mod and make look good for cheap. I wanted to talk about the things I like and dislike about the trucks. Which year is best and some of the things I would change if I did another build. I may make a follow up video on how to buy and what to look for in the nbs platform when shopping. This also gives you a chance to see all the NBS trucks together at one time that we currently own. I have done a lot to the green 2002 GMC Sierra. We have done the power window conversion a LS Swap from the V6 and of course lowering and cosmetic upgrades. If you are looking for one of the best platform trucks to modify I really think the NBS is the one. Hit the Comments and let me know what you think.......

99 Silverado/Sierra was the only year of the NBS that came out with blue interior like the OBS. Also the power buttons are grey on the 99. The 99-00 had pull out cup holders on the dash instead of being bellow the middle seat like the rest of the years. The center seat on the 99 and some 2000 are more like the OBS they had the writing pad. Transmission cross member on the 99 was also flush.
More good information
I got the rare medium oak interior 2000 (peanut butter color )
I love that color
@@nbsgio07i ordered mine with it and when its clean it looks brand new
I love my 99 blue on blue. Getting interior parts is damn near impossible
Just found your channel a month ago when I was looking at shop building videos and I really like the size and layout of yours so I subscribed now your becoming one of my favorite UA-cambers because we have similar taste
Thank you
Nbs content is always great!
Thanks for the info.
Thank you
Great comparisons! Your knowledge is awesome of all the differences. Love these helpful videos. Keep it up. Thanks
Thank you
I have never been this early. I love these comparisons
Thank you
My brother just a 305 v8 305 in a 98 shevy pick up
Awesome. I really enjoy the NBS content ,Brings back fond memories of my youth. I believe from 04-06 GM offered the LQ9 engine on extended cab trucks. Known as the VHO. Without the SS option.
Also OnStar & XM where available as an option for the 03 MY.
Yes like a vortec max truck. They did make those.
Love this video I got a green 99 Sierra and currently doing some 03-06 conversions
That would be the best of both.
Another well done video! Thanks for all the great info. You have a nice setup all around.
Thank you
Good comparison between the different year models, but I love my 2000 Chevy Silverado Z71 Stepside 3 door! I think the black nbs Stepside is one of the cleanest and sharpest looking trucks so far. Looked like the little one was cleaning his ride. ✌🏻
Thank you. He is always spraying water on something. Lol
Man I learned so much from this video thank you
Glad it was informative
Totally agree, the 99-02 front end looks the best. No need for an HD hood, looks clean the way it sits. Was looking for a newer model and doing a backwards conversion, but ended up finding a 2000 for a good price, love it!
I wish I would have bought a 06 and done the conversion
That black stepside is gorgeous! Hell, all three trucks are - you have immaculate taste. Love the content.
Thank you
Great content!
The 05-06 rear drum brake trucks had larger front rotors and calipers that ended up being what was used on the GMT900 platform. That ends up being a nice upgrade to GMT 800 trucks. It does require at least a 17 inch wheels
I have actually done that
My 04 also had rear drum brakes that I upgraded to disc from 04 suburban
👍
Great video 💯 I’ll be waiting for the floor mat video
May be a while
Great video for us nbs guys!
Something I found out recently for a visual upgrade is the windshield cowl trim piece around the wiper arms. Most have the wire mesh vents. They get surface rust or get pushed in usually. Ended up finding these other style cowl trim pieces off the HD trucks, or maybe a 3500 series, that have the vent holes without the wire mesh and have plastic molded vents. Looks way cleaner.
Interesting info. May have to upgrade lol
Link to the piece?
@@josejosejose33 local wrecking yard may have some.
Best place to find stuff sometimes
I love em all!!!! Still rockin my 03 cateye ext cab and loving every minute of it!!!!!
Me too. Wish I could keep them all
@@TWAMotorsports Hey brother I am finally about to do the belltech kit on my 15 escalade (I’ve had the kit for almost a year lol)…still waiting on the front spring cups to come in (backordered til 4/3/23).
I just wanted to say thanks for all the quality info you provide. It means and helps a lot man. We definitely share similar interests and tastes when it comes to vehicles. I really enjoy your content. You da man bro you da man 👍👍👍
God Bless America 🇺🇸 and the 2A
Thank you very much
I love the 1999, 1 year only blue interior. That's one of my unicorns.
Love the gmt800 platform/content. Keep em coming.
Saw one of those for sale recently actually
@@TWAMotorsports maybe one day someone will save one and make some content doing it.
Maybe
Terrific informative video, considering a 2006 and this was a huge help…thx!
Thank you. Glad it helped
@@TWAMotorsports to be honest I thought 2006 was the final production year for that generation. I was unaware of the 2007 “classic”…how long did that go on for? I am always interested in the final run when usually all the bugs are eliminated and improvements/twethave been made.
@TheKingInHiding half way thru the year
My 2002 GMC Sierra 1500 SLT has factory drive-by-wire with the 'traction assist' button. It was surprising to say the least. I thought all 99-02 were cable driven. Great video!
A few 02s had that
Been waiting on this one!! 🤙🏽
Missed several things.
Love this video ! I have an 02 and personally I’d take that over anything besides an 06-07 classic year one
I just like the 2003 up interiors better
99-02 have a serviceable cabin filter. 03-07c that was eliminated completely.
Also 99-02 had under dash lighting. 03-07 that was eliminated.
Good info
And a Locking center console etc. The bean counters were getting pushy in 03.
..you can make it servicable iirc.
Not sure
Love my 01. Only 165000k. My grandpa gave it to me. He bought it brand new. Haven’t done any upgrades yet. Had it just under 2 years now. Got tired of searching for a decent square body. Nbs trucks are everywhere and so much easier to get
Definitely good trucks
I have a 2006 GMC 1 ton crew cab. It has a 8.1 which is now 540 cubic inches. I thoroughly enjoy this truck .
Had one a while back.
Raylar 540 stroker kit with the 4.75" stroke?
Love the videos brother !!!
Thank you
Nice collection man very beautiful rigs
Thank you
@@TWAMotorsports np
Good block of instruction on the NBS trucks cause for the longest I had no idea what OBS or NBS truck style was 🤷♂️. But then again I not as up to date on all of these.
If I had to pick I’d pick that green truck but I like the black truck as well. Personally I do not care for electronic throttle bodies, I like cable, just my old school preference.
Good video! You schooled us all well or at least this old man 😉
Thank you. Definitely a lot more info being added in the comments I didn't cover
Nice little collection... 👍
Thank you. It's about to thin out
I'm with ya on the front end. I love my 2001 front end just the way it is lol.
👍
Cat eye are my favorite nbs trucks. You definitely convinced me to buy another and put the 99-02 gmc front end way better then 03-06. Great content keep it up 👍🏼
Yeah I like old gmc front best.
So you put the GMC front end on your Chevy? I never liked the cat eye Chevy headlights, I always wondered how hard it would be to put the Sierra headlights in one.
No I didn't. All front ends are stock on these teucks.
@@TWAMotorsports sorry, my question was for the other comment.
I got a 02 GMC Sierra love that truck
Thank you. Me too
Keep the great work hope you have a great day I have a 2005 and 1987 and 1972 I'm still looking for 1995 to 1999 rcsb and 2016 to 2018 rcsb my dad has 1999 and 2002 and 2005 and 2006 and 2007 we like regular cab shortbed
Sounds like you guys have the same problems. Lol
Love your videos
Thank you
Thanks for the video, very interesting. I have a 2003 Chevy 1500 with a V6 5 speed 4WD stepside single cab and a 2002 2500hd with the 6.0 and 4L80e 4WD long bed single cab. Definitely a lot of differences between them ignoring the size and engine differences. Will eventually do the 99-02 front end swap on my '03 as it looks way better than the cat-eyes in my opinion. Definitely glad I have the rear discs on both trucks but did have to replace the rear calipers on the '03. My 2500 has the hydraulic boosted brakes while the 1500 has the vacuum booster. They did leave the cable controlled throttle on the V6 models at least into '03 as that it what I have.
Yeah all the v6s have the cable throttle bodies.
Beautiful looking trucks sir!
Thank you
I might add that swapping the din and a half for a double din in a 99-02 is a pain in the ass. I had to buy a new double din bracket housing and new front dash cover. And then still had to modify the new double din bracket to fit in a full/normal sized double din stereo. I’d highly recommend that if you’re considering going double din in the 99-02, buy one that is shallow mount. It’ll be a lot easier to install and no need to purchase a new double din bracket. A shallow mount will fit perfectly. JVC makes great shallow mounted double din stereos with apple carplay/android auto for a decent price.
I may do that eventually with a metra surround
3 clean trucks! Love em
Thank you
Love my ext cab but would love to have single cab one day. I just love having the extra room. Crew cabs are badass too
Extra room is nice
@@TWAMotorsports what's the tire size on the 20s on the GMC. There's a gold '03 I've been looking for. I got asking looking to buy my ext cab. Going for the same look. Lol thanks
245/45-20 on green truck
I have an 07 classic and one thing I noticed is that the oil filters are different than 99-06, the threads are bigger. Another difference is the 06-07 classic throttle pedals are different from 03-05 and I think 03-05 feels a little more responsive off the line.
More good info
How come they are more responsive?
Electronic throttle body
I've had 4 of these only one of them was newer than '03.....All have had a double din radio. Two had a double din with the cassette player down on the center console, and one had am/fm cassette in the dash. Also the newer models have the option for a 6 disk changer in the dash.
Must have not been stock. Double din started in 2003. 99-02 was din and a half. Same as all gm vehicle ls from 80s until then
@@TWAMotorsports My bad, I misheard you. I thought you said they had a single din.
Great video
Thank you
When I did the engine and electric swap for my 2002 sierra, it came out of a 2002 suburban. I got a different version of drive-by wire and flex fuel.
My 2007 classic did not have tpms, I think lt2 and lt3 trims did.
Good info
This video was a wealth of information....but this comment section is a treasure trove!!
👍
Great video!!!
Thank you
I have an 01 love this truck
👍
Man I love these trucks. Easily the best trucks GM ever produced. And I'm biased of the 99-02 body style myself as I own a black 5.3 powered 2000 model 3 door Z71 stepside Sierra. Truck is fully loaded with leather & every option available except on star😎.
I like the look of the 99-02 best
Buddy you have some beautiful trucks! I’ve finally got me a 2007 gmc sierra 1500 WT SWB classic. V6 and manual transmission. No power windows or locks. Almost 93,000 miles on the odometer. I would love to have a 5.3 v8 instead. I do not have the skills to do that kind of work. Still recovering from two neck surgeries and hand surgeries. Great job on your trucks!
Thank you. Sounds like you have a nice truck.
Call some local shops ask how much to v6 to 5.3ls swap cost out the door. Enjoy
Probably high
@TWAMotorsports with inflation yup. Thanks for video's.
👍
Awesome video, learned quite a bit! Sold my 02 black rcsb because I thought I wanted a obs, after seeing your line up and how great the green truck looks kinda changing my mind🤪 just wish nice ones weren’t so hard to find! Seems like obs are so much easier to find 🤷🏻♂what’s your opinion? Thanks
Obs looks good too in my opinion
Im a huge fan of the OBS, it was my first truck so I never fell out of love with it. They're harder to find around here than the nbs, which seem to be EVERYWHERE!
They are getting harder to find
@@TWAMotorsports and expensive! I've seen 25 year old trucks with well over 100k going for more than say a 2012 or 13 with less miles. Should have kept all my old work trucks, I'd have a fortune!
For sure
03 or 04 GM scrapped the under hood light which sucks cause everyonce in a while it would come in handy. My 2006 crew cab I bought new didn’t have it. Also it don’t have tpms sensors so it may of just been the Tahoe like you mentioned.
I agree on hood light. Pretty sure tpms is only tahoe
Yeah. These trucks are pretty reliable but that hood light still is nice. Would of came in handy a few weeks ago when I was adjusting my headlights after replacing all four lenses. I want to hit a local scrap yard to see if I can find one. I think they reproduce them but there’s no electrical included with those.
Mine never makes enough light to do anything
@@TWAMotorsports Great Vid, my 05 NBS STS need under the hood lighting, how about doing a duel LED setup on the stepside. ?
Probably wouldn't be a hard add
07 Classic here, 4.8, manual windows lol
Its fairly simple. I've learned about the fuel filter in the tank trick they pulled, real stupid. And this nylon on the Ujoints?! Whats that? Thanks for the rear disk info, Ill keep it stock there. Not used to the new trucks and rack & pinion is excessive I think. The 79, 87 and 96 trucks are so much different. I refuse to by a newer truck. Too many great ideas coming out in later years from engineering.
Yeah lots of different combos
Nice clean trucks
Thank you
The rear brake lines that go from the differential to the calipers are different to the 99-02, one is shorter than the other because they meet closer to the driver side on the rear differential. On 03-06 the rear braklines meet on the middle of the differential and are around the same size. (I own a 2000 GMC Sierra 1500 Z71)
I prefer the 03-06 GMC Sierra HD front ends and overall I prefer more heavy duty off roading trucks, but I do plan on owning a sport lowered truck. But It prefer either crew cab with regular bed (6.5") or dually (8"), extended cab regular bed (6.5") or Long bed (8") or long bed dually (8")
👍
Beautiful trucks
Thank you
Also, Vortec Max 6.0 trucks retained rear disc brakes in 05-07, also quadrasteer trucks as well
Yeah that's right
New to this trucks, recently bought my brothers 2000 gmc sierra that needed doors and fenders found some from 99 Silverado that I believe had a HD conversion. My question is can I use my hood and grill with those fenders ? Some guidance would be highly appreciated
No you can not. Gmc and Silverado fenders are different
Do you ever plan on putting an hd hood on the green sierra? It would look badass
No plan to
Trucks look grate 👍🏻 I my self have an 06 RST John moss edition
Nice
I also have a an 03 gmc single cab Sierra 5.3 2wd with 89k for sale idk if you would be intrested in it
I don't need anymore
I still want that HD hood......
You can buy it
@TWA Motorsports r u serious! Price?
Comes with the truck.
@@TWAMotorsports LMAO I knew it
Lol
Great video👍🏽. I just picked up an 02 Chevy stepside this past Saturday. What do I need for the cleanest double din conversion?
Not sure what fitment is like yet. Hopefully someday I will do this.
Several companies make 99-02 double din conversion trim that just swaps in, you will have to cut/dremel out the plastic behind the stock stereo but it's not too bad.
Eventually I will do that
I got a 2000 gmc 3500 utility box bucket truck that im combining with a 09 yukon denali , 6.2 ls9 , doing cam swap now , afm delete , 6l80e transmission , im wondering if i can cut up this newer denali dash and make it fit , trying to use as much denali interior as i can
Nice
your trucks are nice man. I have a 2001 LS work truck version. Basic everything, but I love it. almost 300K miles. Treats me good, and have taken it in some hairy situations in back country Utah. Where do you find your modifications on line?
Buy a lot of Amazon and ebay
the 03 and up GMC grills heavily remind me of the late 50s gmc grills. Think 1957, it's a bit hard to see but I think there is some resemblance.
I can see that
On the 99-02 what did u have to do for the power window swap because i have a stepside one but it has the roll up windows
I made a whole video series on this on my channel
I think the TPMS was more of a SUV thing. My 04 Tahoe has TPMS sensors but my 06 crew cab truck didn’t.
I think that is right
I’ve been wondering are the two different engine covers interchangeable, I’ve been wanting to put the newer style engine cover on my 2000 Chevy Silverado?
They should be
Are those oem mirrors on the gmc in the middle ? Idk I feel about them I got my oem ones on mine but these look so sleek and racing style like forsure ! Super nice video btw 👍
No they are not. Calvu mirrors
@@TWAMotorsportswhat are your thoughts on them compared to the oem ones ?
@fredisolez4276 better looking
I like the 02 Sierra front end but you have to have the HD hood. That is what makes them look classic .I have always thought the cat eyes front end does’t match the rest of the body. The hood has a that big gap from the side and sharp edges. Again the 99-02 Silverado looks better with the HD hood.
I like hd hoods on the 99-02
Do you know if the lower valance from a 2002 gmc sierra will fit a tahoe valance? Or will I need a new bumper?
It will not. Different bumpers
The L33 Silverado/Sierra was 4wd extended cab shortbed 6.6 bed only
ok I have a question....I am looking at trading my Excursion for an 03-06 gen Sierra crew cab. BUT It is a duramax crew cab truck and I would LOVE to slam it like guys are doing to the gas trucks......Is. this. possible without doing the "low & wide" look? I figured you were a good source to ask because I have not seen anyone stance a duramax like a 5.3 truck except for duallys which I dont want. Thanks brother.
Not a lot of parts for the 2500s but it can get lower
What radio are you rocking in the green truck? I need a better single
Crappy old alpine that came in it. Lol
Only 99-00 model extended cab half ton trucks were available with a manual transmission. 99-00 trucks also had better cupholders on trucks with a jumpseat.
Good points
What's your wheel combo on the green truck
20 inch ltz wheels
What’s the paint color code on the green Sierra? Beautiful truck by the way!
Can't remember
What would be a good price to buy a 03 gmc rcsb truck? Been looking at some and prices are all over the place
15k for a really nice one in my opinion
The tail lights are different from 99-07c, 99-03 have the red surrounds, 04-07c have black surrounds. Also noticed the badging changes, 99-03 have the 1500 badges on the doors, Silverado and Chevrolet on the tailgate, 04-07c no more door badges and 06-07c no Chevrolet tailgate badge just Silverado.
Absolutely right. Forgot about that
What kind of bumper do you got for your 99-02 gmc sierra?
Stock
Quick question can you swap 03 climate control a year down to the 99-02 (Single Zone) climate control? If so how it’s a much cleaner look in my opinion.
No you can not
Didn’t think so, thanks anyways
You're welcome
Does anyone know what escalades years are compatible with a 99 sierra???
Some parts from 2001-2006
I had a bare bones '04 Tahoe and it had the tire pressure sensors. Not sure if all of the '04s had them or just select ones.
Crazy they only did suvs
Is the fog light switch connection the same on both nbs
I don't think so
When I grow up!!! Clean!!
Me too. Lol
The interior design and quality was much better from 99-07 vs the generation right after. My humble opinion, but they didn't get it right again until 14-15 and even then there were still too much plastics. The 19 and now the 23's have great interiors again.
I agree with that
The 99-02 do have the auto headlights. At least mine does. I have to hit the button 3 (4) times to turn it off.
Right but a different switch
Honestly just to get the chevy 99 to 02 and square body to have pretty much every bodystyle lol
I know. Need to sell some.
My 2003 Tahoe has TPMS sensors as well
So it started early in those
can u put on and show us how to put auto remote start on NBS trucks? please
Maybe some day
Will the rounder grill fit the more squared grill
I don't think it will
I had a 04 silverado 1500 with manual throttle
Interesting. Not a factory option
The hd hood on the right is where its at
Thank you
My 06 sierra has no tpms but it tells me washer fluid low turn signal on all that stuff and it had the aluminum block from the factory aswell as electric fans also
👍
My 02 Silverado cable throttle felt more responsive than my 08 drive by wire. Of course that’s a nnbs vs nbs but anyhow.
Really. I don't feel that.
I like the step sides more then fleetsides, just my opinion
I am more of a fleetside guy
I own a 2000 Suburban from California and it has a 5.3 that’s drive by wire.
That's interesting
What bedliner is in the green truck?
Line x
What size of wheels and tires are on your 05 ?
20s, 275/45
I don't really like the cat eye Chevy look but I'd get used to it if that's what was. I prefer the GMC front clip.
Gmc is definitely better looking
Any engine in these is good enough if you just have RWD and if you don't tow. Friend in Mount Vernon has an extremely nice 99 V6 3.73 final RWD.
Nothing wrong with the V6
The phenolic pistons on the single piston calipers would swell and not go back in the caliper that caused the issue
If you had the issue and it was a new caliper you probably have the master cylinder leaking into the booster replace both and bleed the system front with the engine running if you have issues with it
What type of rims are on the stepside?
Cadillac escalade replica
