  1. Jumper going from GRY-1 to PNK-26.
  2. Had a friend tell me to use Rhino-liner. Not to sure if I would go that route.
  3. From the album: Ravenkeeper's 2015 Silverado LTZ Z71 (Black) w/ Off-Road Package

    From what I've seen online, you don't need the special tool to run the calipers back in, on the front NOR the rear.
  4. If you're referring to the ones that Kubs posted, yes, all the bulbs in the high mount brake and cargo light assembly are 921s.
  5. Crossed 50K a little over a week ago. Think it has 50400+ on it now. But ODDLY, it was the right inboard pad as to why I had to change them. (See picture above)
  6. Yesterday afternoon, my son and I replaced the front brake pads. Wil post pictures after I get home from work tonight. In the picture below, you will see why I had to change them. When I got my oil changed, they informed me that one of the pads was less than 2mm, that was 2 weeks ago. The top one is the outboard pad, and the other one is the inboard pad. Pads on the other side had a little more pad left then the right outboard pad, and they are evenly worn. Went ahead and replaced all four. Keeping the left ones, as a spare set.

  9. Updated my post from Friday at 03:26 PM, to include pictures from when I actually hit 50K, on my way home.

  11. Not just Firestik, but several (if not all) other CB antenna sources out there, all state that your mount needs to be grounded. Magnet mount antennas get "grounded" through the shielding of the coax, back to/through the radio. And to answer your base station question, YES, it gets grounded too. And like you, me and my 30+ years experience are done.

  13. They still get grounded to a vehicle ground.
  14. Come to find out, I put the antenna on my mount bracket incorrectly. My bracket is getting a great ground with the way it is mounted to the bedrail, especially as long as the "gasket" is on top, between the top of the bedrail and the mount bracket. Meter SQUEALED at me checking the ground between the mount bracket and the right rear door catch. As stated elsewhere, bed is grounded through all of the nuts/bolts. The fuel tube ground is for the fuel going into the truck.
  15. 8.1 miles from 50K, maybe I'll hit it when I go to lunch tonight, or I'll have to take pictures of it in the dark, on the way home. We'll see.

  17. Welcome to the 109th day of January.
  18. I put my phone holder in there, with some modifications to make it fit. I have a few pictures of it, in progress, but none of it done. I'll post some complete ones tomorrow or Friday.
  19. Had my oil changed, 27 point inspection, transmission fluid changed, and washed. Then we went to look at a few model houses.

  21. Yeah, I found them, before. But I'm not looking for anti-glare, I'm looking to not get blinded by the sun, off both side mirrors, with the sun at "my 6."
  22. WAIT!!! You're saying that it's part of the mirror? Looks more like it's a polarizing film laid on the mirror. Man, I wish that they would have done that to the entire mirror, and have it available for the other side.
