  1. I have this too, it sounds like a valve tick from my old LS1 days -- It's pretty loud. i can mainly hear it at idle -- when I stop to get the mail and i get out of the truck every day, it's louder than my Borla XR1 muffler w/ deleted resonator......yet it doesn't throw any codes, and the dealership told me its the injectors, and it's "normal" in these engines.....i've had people walk up asking what's wrong with the truck...so that's fun.

    Matched the grill surround, emblem, front bumper, and rear bumper to Sonoma Jewel Metallic -- The cost to paint it all was $650

    Here's the finished amp rack, still have some wire cleaning to do

    Here's the amp that's powering the subwoofers, 800w RMS @ 2 ohms. The distribution block I used is the KnuKonceptz Konfused block for both ground and power

    A picture of the woofers; since they're downfiring, you don't see them when installed

    Hertz Audio DSK 163.5 components mounted in the door using the Metra kits to fit the door openings. Fatmat below for sound deadening.

    Here's where I mounted my tweeters -- Just cut a hole in the sail panel and had to shorten one of the bolts that holds on the mirror, but it was an easy job with a dremel

    Cut pieces of 3/4" MDF wood and JBWelded them to the back of the cab -- it's held the amp rack perfectly with no signs of movement whatsoever. FatMat was laid down across the whole back for sound deadening

    Behind the rear seat once i got them out
  12. This is the one I went with and WOW did it go up in price from when I bought it! I bought the 5.8ft version of it of course https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B012BVG6GM/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  13. Tyger is a great company -- I did buy their bed cover and it's been great for something like $110 when i bought it off of ebay. Took me all but 10 minutes to install, and doesn't leak at all. Glad to hear they stand by their product. It blows my mind that people will drop $2,000 on a bed cover. That's just silly in my opinion. but to each their own I suppose!
  14. 90 views and no responses. cool. But for anyone reading this later, I got it figured out, it was my amp that was cutting out, there's some sort of short in the level adjustment screw; moral of the story, stay away from cheap power acoustik!
  15. Hey guys, I've been battling this car audio gremlin for about 2 months now trying to track it down, and I'm exhausted. I want to see if someone smarter than me can help me out. here is my situation, and equipment list below: 2 - Rockford Fosgate P3SD2-12 subwoofers. They're 2 ohm DVC Subthump Dual downfire box with amp space: http://subthump.com/Chevrolet-GMC-Custom-Subwoofer-Boxes/Silverado-And-Sierra-Crew-Cab-Custom-Subwoofer-Enclosures-by-Subthump/2014-Up-GM-Crew-Cab-Dual-Downfire-Box-With-Amp-Space-Hot-Product.html Power Acoustik Edge EG1-2500D Amplifier -- 800w RMS @ 2ohms PAC Audio PDLC21 2-channel Digital line output converter Here is my problem - After about 10-15 minutes of playing my stereo, my subwoofers just cut out, but the amp DOES NOT go into protection mode, or shut off. The light still shows it's on, and the light on the line output converter shows it's getting power/signal. I literally cannot figure out what's causing it. The amp is not hot all all (to the touch, I don't know if it could still be hot inside by any chance?) Secondary question: The subthump box has terminal cups on each side of the box for each subwoofer. My issue is I'm trying to wires these subs to a 2ohm load, which would be this diagram here: My problem is because I have to go through the terminal cups, Sub 2 goes to the terminal cup, then from the terminal cup to Sub 1's terminal cup, then from Sub 1's terminal cup to the amp. Does this still get me to 2 ohms in theory? If not, could this be the issue? Let me know if there is any more info I can provide to hopefully help out? Thanks so much!
  16. I bought the 40085 and have no plans to install headers or remove the cats Sent from my ZTE A2017U using Tapatalk
  17. You're right on this one, I went to install it last night, and realized the 3" borla was bigger than the stock piping, so i need to get adapters. Also, for anyone running the XR1 muffler on a 2014+ 5.3 -- Did you remove the resonator at the rear of the truck (that's over the rear axle)? I have the 3" in/out XR1 muffler that i'm going to replace the stock with, but need to know if I also need to remove the stock resonator at the back of the truck, or leave it in place? Thanks all!
  18. You're a god among men for the last line of this post. I've been searching forever for the stock exhaust size so I can just cut mine off and replace with the XR-1, THANK YOU!
  19. He's correct, no drilling at all. Literally 0 drilling. Don't even have to jack up the truck to install. There are 3 nuts that are welded to the body (i think thats what it is?) that are already threaded. you sit the bracket over the threaded holes, and you screw in the included bolts.
  20. Yes, it's a 5" backspacing -- it's the only option for these wheels at 20x9 +0 with the bolt pattern for this truck. Let me know if you have any other questions!
  21. Not hard at all, they bolt into pre existing holes underneath. I installed them by myself in about an hour. I still love them! For the price, they can't be beat! Sent from my ZTE A2017U using Tapatalk
  22. Sure, I can get a picture as soon as I get off work here in about 2 hours or so
  23. Here's some nicer photos of my new setup, specs are as follows: 20x9 +0 XD820 Grenade 305/55/20 BFGoodrich KO2 Ziptied back side of front fenderwells back NO RUBBING at all, in any direction at full lock 2.5" Pro Comp leveling kit - No changes to rear suspension from stock let me know if you have any questions! I absolutely love the way it looks!
  24. Finally got them on! This is the only picture that I have, but there is no rubbing once I zip tied back the fender wells, more pics to come Sent from my ZTE A2017U using Tapatalk
