  1. Well I would but if you read through the thread I already sent all that I have to people for free.
  2. Make sure you've got enough weight at the front of the camper. The wife loaded ours once and put too much stuff in the back making to tounge too light. The slightest breeze was throwing the truck all around. Only made it about 7 miles before I pulled over and moved things around.
  3. I normally use a billet shorty antenna. However I trimmed the factory antenna by about 4" so it is about 2" taller than the top of the shark fin. In the unusual case that I'll need to park in a parking garage I put the trimmed factory back on as a height indicator.
  4. While those bulbs will technically work in the backup blubs spot they aren't really bright enough for you to be able to see anything with. You might not even be able to tell they are on over the light your brake lights put out.
  5. Simply read back through this thread and install the diode between the highs and fogs. It will work exactly like you want.
  6. If you look though they also turn off as soon as you flip your high beams on. Keeping them on with the highs was the original point of this thread.

  10. You need the diode to prevent current from flowing back and turning on the high beams when you activate the fogs.
  11. Washed and waxed the truck: Then got the truck ready for Rally North America Ohio Valley 700 in a few weeks. This is a charity rally to raise money for the Epilepsy Foundation of Western Ohio. If you'd like to donate to our team it will help us move up in the starting order.

  15. Picked it up from the dealer after Oil Change #1 and Recalls #4 and #5. They also replaced the cap on my windshield wiper that blew off somehow for free.
  16. 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 Double Cab 5.3L 3.43 towing a 22' camper that is 5250lbs dry and around 6k loaded Best trip was ~200 miles and I got 11.8 MPG, worst was almost the same distance and I got 10.5 MPG.
  17. I bought them separately from different vendors. However... The part number for the tonneau is different to work with the Invis-A-Rack since it piggybacks off the clamps for the rack. I think it also may be narrower. I'm not sure if you can convert the regular Low-Pro to fit with the rack on. Probably best to call Truxedo on that one.
  18. I'm happy to see the diodes making their rounds.
  19. Loaded the kayaks on the Invis-A-Rack for the first time. Love being able to close the tonneau with the rack on. It's a shame it's been a rough year so far and this will be their first trip out.

  21. I plan to run a switch for aux backup lights and the cargo light remote switch wires at the same time. After that I hope to never fight with the e-brake boot again on this truck.
  22. I'm planning to install a light bar so I like having them tied to the high beams. I plan to use the fog circuit to signal the relay for the light bar and also install a switch to interrupt that so I can prevent the light bar from coming on if I want. So then I'll have: Lows (With or without fogs) Highs + Fogs (With or without light bar)
