Mitchellb2005's '15 Denali 1500 4x4 6.2L Build

[mitchellb2005]

Here's my build thread.

 

I bought the truck pre-owned just a few weeks ago. It's a black on black 2015 Denali 1500 4x4 with the 6.2L 8 speed 3.23 drivetrain. It is super clean without any flaws save for a few rock chips in the front.

 

The truck has every factory option including Power Sunroof, Driver Alert Package, and trailer brake, but with the machines wheels.

 

The truck already came with a painted ARE bed cover with electric lock, Bed Rug, Under-Seat rear storage, GM all-weather mats (still wrapped in plastic!), and new Michelin LTX M/S2 275/55/20 tires.

 

Here are the pictures from the original owners classified add.

The very next morning after buying the truck I took off the running boards. I like the look better, plus I plan to install either AMP electric running boards or NFab nerf bars

A week or so after buying I did a couple of small things.

 

AMP black bed extender; super easy install and nice quality.

 

 

GM rubber hitch cover and lock carried over from my Tahoe

 

 

And an Antenna-X shorty 13" "off-road" antenna

Very nice truck! I have the same one and am building it right now! Excited to see how yours and mine both turn out!

Wow, see is clean. That engine bay looks spotless. I'm waiting for spring so I can do a good detail on my 2014. You have me thinking about a new bed cover as well. My UnderCover Flex leaks like a faucet.

I like to see other people ideas. Soon I'll be doing a 2.5" level, 285/65 BFG K02's and maybe a few other small things

Thanks, I was surprised at how spotless the engine bay was myself.

 

if you were local I'd sell you this cover. I love it but I want a power retractable cover; for my very short girlfriend to be able to open a close it and so my do can ride in the back.

Last night I replaced the license plate opening with the chrome filler. Looks much better.

Where did you purchase your antenna Sir..?

I think it was Amazon. Antenna-X 13".

 

To make it look perfect, the male end of the antenna (on the vehicle) should be ground down 1/4". Other than that detail I like the antenna

Not really part of the build but had an opportunity to take some good pics tonight
