I put bed covers on them. That way suitcases, bags tools and whatever fit in the bed. Not for everyone but works great for me. Ben driving RCSBs for 20+ years. I'm just use to it.

I could do the swap myself. I strongly considered it. I am going to super charge the 5.3 instead and not spend the money. if GM built it I could finance it. If I have to built it, it takes cash.

I will not spend anything on a 4 door. I had no issues dropping $44,000 for my RCSB Sierra with the options I required. I would have dropped $55,000 if they would have made me a RCSB Denali. Heck, I would have spent $70,000 for a 6.2L 4x4 Denail RCSB. I will not buy any new truck that isn't a RCSB the minute they stop making them is the minute I never buy another new truck. Thats just me... I hate 4 door trucks. I dont need and dont want 4 doors. Your search included V6 long beds.... find loaded ones. Typically one in a 500 mile radius.

Thats not actually true. I have 3 brand new RCSB trucks loaded as high as I could get them. There are 0 rebates on the regular cabs. Because there are so few of them GM doesn't need to offer rebates to move them and likely makes more profit on the ones they do make. I have paid close to sticker on each of them and had to travel close to a thousand miles to find one. It is possible if dealers stocked more, more might sell. About once a month someone says to me they didn't know GM even made RCSB any more.

Added a 3/2 leveling kit, differential drop, bilstiens in the rear. 275/65/r20 BFG's on factory wheels with 2" spacers. The tires do rub. 1.5" spacers should arrive today. I think the 1.5 spacers will remove the rubbing. If not I will trim a little. The tires do not rub with no spacer.

I put 40,000 on a 2015 in 2014 before all this complaining about upper control arms. Never had any issues at all.

I paid $1400 for the truck. A tranny from a junk yard is $800 + more for shipping for a 2007. Its a one year only transmission. I can install it. Did two last week. I will buy every 2007 you can find me that kinda runs and drives for $1,000. Book is $7000. I will sell it for around $6000 with a new tranny. Its very much worth fixing. Please... find me a couple dozen 2007 Chevy trucks for $100 each. I will gladdly pick them up pretty much anywhere in America, fix them and make $6000 a truck. No one ever mentioned thousands for a trans. Its only $1200 full warranty with stronger then factory parts and my guy is taking it out and putting it in. Freeing me up to work on something else. That puts me in the truck for $2700. Low trade in is $3200. Around $2500 profit for a days work.

Turns out the transmission is shot. The message was gone until I got on the highway and truck tried to go into 4th. Its trashed. Seems clutches in 3rd and 4th are no good. I am keeping my fingers crossed that rebuilding the tranny will make the message go away. Not likely but hopefully.

Yes. Over night. Message went away and came right back.

nope. Hose coming off the back of the engine to the booster like most gm trucks. It a know issue when power steering is low, or the cluster has been changed. There are several service bulletins about different things causing this issue. From spending a few hours in google its pretty much a guarantee its not the booster.

Except if you google the issue. Everyone says that "Service Brake Booster" will never be triggered by the brake booster. I have no issues replacing it if it fixes the problem. From everything I read there is nothing in the system to actually check the brake booster. The message is porely written and points to other issues.

All fluids are good. I spent a couple hours googling the issue. Nothing helped. Nothing clear. I learned that pretty much everything but a bad brake booster will cause this message.

2007 Silverado 1500 W/T 4.8 automatic regular cab long bed. Just bought this 2007 from an auction. 170k miles. Trucks runs and drive great but the service brake booster message comes on and stays on when you start the truck. I tried pulling codes with my reader and there are none. This must take the TechII ready that pretty much no one can afford. I dont want to run out and replace the brake booster if that not the issue. Any ideas?
