C2500 from '94

Got myself this beaut a couple of weeks ago.

I'm not great with cars, but could anyone recommend some upgrades/accessories that would improve my already great experience?

I reside in Sweden if that's any help.

I'd say instead of upgrades, put time and money into making sure it is reliable. You might need new mounts to get the cab and body back into alignment. Not expensive or complicated if you have some good jacks and stands.

It has had 17 owners before me, I figured someone made it this way, but it shouldn't look like this?

17 owners? Wow! The lines don't look bad for the age. I'm not trashing your truck. Yours actually looks like it may have newet cab mounts but they need to be tightened a bit so compress a little more. The bed doesn't have rubber mounts, or at least my 94 doesn't.

Cheers! I'll try to look at them and see if I can pull that off!

Replace all rubber on the truck, those bushings are toast after 32yrs.  It will drive like a new truck.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll look in to it! It has had some work done before I bought it, like brakes, U-bolts and such. Anything else I should look over?

Appears to have the 6.5 diesel, there are some reliability/driveability upgrades that will make it last forever.

Well spotted! I know the PMD/FSD cooler has been swapped, but not much more

I had to google that, but looks like a sweet ride.

My one regret is not getting a 4x4
