1982 GMC C1500 Suburban Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 1982 GMC C1500 Suburban covers the four-door sport utility in Base, High Sierra, Sierra Classic and Sierra Grande trim. Three engines are documented: the 5.0L and 5.7L overhead-valve V8s running on gasoline and the 6.2L V8 running on diesel, each naturally aspirated. A Suburban carries far more body, glass and interior hardware than a pickup on the same chassis, so the body sections here stand alongside the engine, driveline and chassis procedures rather than trailing behind them.

Known issues on the 1982 C1500 Suburban. The federal record for this model year is clean, with NHTSA listing no recalls and no owner complaints. The book therefore reads as pure reference: overhaul and tune-up data for the two gasoline V8s and the 6.2L diesel, driveline and axle work, brake and steering service, and the body and interior procedures a full-length four-door wagon demands. Specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostics accompany each of those sections.
