The Chevrolet K2500 Silverado for 1996: Improving on 1995
Standard equipment in the K2500 for 1995 and 1996 includes the 5.7 liter engine by General Motors, weighing in at 8 cylinders and sixteen valves. A 4-speed Automatic Transmission puts the power of the Vortec engine to the pavement. This is a long-standing favorite for buyers in the Cab & Chassis arena.
The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are drum. Steering is handled through a power-steering gear-style configuration. The K2500 uses power-assisted brakes, with 2-Wheel ABS support. Load balancing is provided by torsion bar front springs and leaf in the rear.
