HID Headlight Bulbs / HID Projector Retrofit
Jordan18 replied to MotoMedic's topic in 2014-2018 Silverado & Sierra Mods
Last time my truck threw a code I disconnected my battery for a minute then reconnected and all good. It was from taking out my air filter and unplugging the MAF- 3,357 replies

HID Headlight Bulbs / HID Projector Retrofit
Jordan18 replied to MotoMedic's topic in 2014-2018 Silverado & Sierra Mods
The low beams are equal to my LED bulb high beams for throw, and better than my girlfriends VW tiguan all around lol . What amazes me the most is the light projected into the ditches, it's almost like a separate beam out of the projector My XB fogs are probably the best fog light I have ever seen. Just a sharp addition of white light onto the road and into the ditches as well, compliments my HIDs perfectly. Then the 30" light bar in the grille just is the frosting on top, like a mini sun in front of the truck for the night time.- 3,357 replies

Here's some snaps frpm tonight. Pardon the jetski but there was no other place in my driveway to show the fxr cutoff. Again this is 5500k 50w. Lights were professionally worked on, baked and opened all the way up. Removed the permaseal and replaced with butyl for easier future work on the lights.- 3,357 replies

Just had my Sierra retrofitted with FXRS and morimoto 5500k D2S system. Also had the XB LED fogs put in. All I can say is wow what an upgrade. I will try to post pics later tonight. Just crisp and sharp. You could use fogs with low beams and still navigate the dark safely on the highway. What's amazing about the fxrs is even with my 30" light bar in the grille you can still see the high beams project over the flood light of the bar down road.- 3,357 replies

Still Not Sold On A Catch Can? Check Here...
Jordan18 replied to JRaschke11's topic in 2014-2019 Engine, Driveline, & Exhaust
My CC hoses are just slipped on over the "barbs" which my stock PCV line just clips over, they are on pretty snug this way without the need for hose clamps -

Jordan18 replied to JRaschke11's topic in 2014-2019 Engine, Driveline, & Exhaust
I would only remove mine if I ever had an engine issue that threw a code of some sort, and I would want to get the whole can out of there just so they don't suspect anything aftermarket at all since GM is so touchy. My stock PCV line just "clips" into place. -
I think diamond cote is identical to armaguard. Under the body got sprayed as well and looks even better than the frame. Matte black spray paint is actually a good idea. I already have rustguard paint primer as well. Might have to try the matte paint as a good finishing touch in tougher to reach spots I don't want to spray the rubberized coating. Pm me some pics of before and after of your work! Interested to see how it looks.

Headlight Illumination Issues
Jordan18 replied to deputy's topic in 2014-2018 Silverado & Sierra Troubleshooting
I emailed 7 separate GMC dealers in the Edmonton city limit area to see if any of them have actually swapped the new LED/HID housings on the 2016s into any 2014-2015 and none have them have. Some of them even said GM is directing them to refuse this outright on this exact subject which seems like a ploy to force people to buy a new 2016 truck. Really they could do a small money making scheme to offer the 16' lights in 2014-2015s but I think the hassle of establishing the logistics horsepower is just too much for them. Plus they could make thousands more off desperate people to buy new trucks. -
Hey Morris I thought I seem somewhere that you might live around or close to Edmonton? I could be mistaken. There is a shop there that armaguarded my frame. It still chips in small pieces but for almost a year it still looks decent. Any visible chips and I coat it with a rubber guard spray and it blends with the armaguard. I would say to the rest here, don't wait for GM to just band aid your truck, you'll have to resort to a more solid coating or strip the frame and paint. Will post some pics. EDIT: Right after the armaguard was applied. Was applied OVER the frame wax. I was warned it might still easily fall off but I am still impressed at the durability. Limited lifetime warranty as well which I would only take it back if huge chunks started to fall off. Below pics are after a year of use. Lots of gravel miles as well. All the rust/beige spots in these are just the exhaust pipe or dirt sticking to the wax/armaguard. These pics are just after I touch up some spots with the rubber guard spray. This is after a year of use. Plenty of gravel miles as well.

2016 SLT lights in 14/15 SLT/All Terrain almost done

Thanks! That would be cool to see. -

Has the dealer decided if they would do it for you yet? I might ask my dealership now that people are doing it. -

Jordan18 replied to JRaschke11's topic in 2014-2019 Engine, Driveline, & Exhaust
I literally said the same thing in the other catch can thread. I keep my stock hose and tools in the truck to rip the whole thing out it 5-10 min. -
It would be nice to see just to compare. Here's a picture from another thread, 30K miles and no catch can. From this perspective they actually look comparable... but the lighting is everything

Does ELITE have a guarantee the same way K+N will cover your engine costs if the air filter is proven to be the cause? If they do, I'll swap my RX right now.
-
Compared to some others without a can, this is pretty good. Do you have any close ups of the valves themselves? The whole deal with a catch can voiding warranty is BS, it's the same deal with after market airfilters. Honestly if I had an engine issue which required it to be towed, I'll rip out the CC in just few minutes and return it to stock. I keep tools and a stock PCV hose in my truck for this very reason because I know the dealers would bring it up if something happened.
