    May have gotten to you too late, but here’s my setup on my 2016 Silverado, with the same wheels as you - 2.5” front 1” rear 295/55/20 Toyo MT (33x12.2) brand new 20x9 GMC AT wheels I have stamped steel UCAs, and the tires did rub them a good bit. I added 1.5” bora wheel spacers, and that fixed the issue, however I do get a little fender rubbing at full lock now.

    Sorry, don’t know how I missed this response. I’ll grab my vin when I get home today. I’d like to bring this thread back, as I finally got around to ordering the inserts yesterday. My question for you is (excuse my lack of knowledge here) if it’s the leaf spring inserts, why does the creaking sound persist when I suppress the brake, even when in park and on a flat surface like my driveway?

    Awesome, thank you. I'm going to order the parts and have my preferred shop that I take all my cars to do it. Hoping that it's covered under my B2B warranty, especially since there is a service bulletin about it. I'll pass this information on to my shop and I'll shoot you a PM if they think there will be any issues. Good stuff, and appreciated!!

    I appreciate the info! I googled and looked on Amazon and Dorman's site, but can't seem to have anything that will fit my truck. Do you happen to know the part number? order directly from GM? Assuming I need a total of (2) inserts?

    Hey All - For some time now, I've had a braking noise coming from the rear of my 2016 Silverado. Tried to pinpoint, and it sounds like it's coming from the axle/leaf spring area, but can't tell if it's the perch, the actual leaf springs, or parking brake cable tensioning something involved on the rear axle. This noise is NOT a squeak/squeal like you would hear driving on worn pads, etc - its more a creaking sound similar to that of stepping on a loose floor board. I notice it at lower speeds, however it also happens when I suppress the break while the truck is in park. The sound is consistent through the full brake suppression to the floor. Anyone seen this issue? Any ideas? (I'll see if I can get a video of the noise later today, however it might be tough to hear since I have exhaust)

    Subbing for updates. I've got a 2016 with the same issue. Pretty gnarly howling sound at anything above 35mph. I I've got mud tires and exhaust and can still hear it over that, especially when cruising @ 70 or so.

    Great news. Thanks again!

    Thanks for following up, Mike! If you don't mind me asking, did warranty cover the RCDLR replacement? (if you are still under warranty of course)
  9. Travis1024
    Thanks for the follow up. I too overuse my clicker out of habit haha. Looks like Mike (below) had the same issues, but with a different fix replacing the RCDLR. I think I will try the fuse route first to see if that works.
  10. Travis1024
    Any updates on a fix here?
  11. Travis1024
    Any update here? I’m having the exact same issues on my 2016
  12. Travis1024
    Did the RCDLR replacement Ultimately fix this? Any issues since the fix?
  13. Travis1024
    Do you mind providing a follow up here as to if you’ve had any issues since the fuse replacement? This is a great write up, and I’ve been having the same issues. when one fob works, the other does too. When one DOESN’T work, neither does the other. I also had TPMS sensor error as soon as this happened as well. they work intermittently, and it seems as if they have a mind of their own (work one day, don’t the next). follow up post on the success would be much appreciated.

    That is exactly what I needed! I greatly appreciate the information! I'm a firm believer in backing in almost everywhere I go, so the backup camera will help a ton getting into a garage as well. Right now, my garage is only 19', so getting this thing to actually fit in a garage will be a new thing for me lol.....

    Hey All - We are looking at a new house with a 2 car attached garage and a separate 3rd car garage. We have 3 vehicles, and My worry is being able to fit my truck in the 3rd car garage w/ measurements of 11'8W x 20'8L I've searched all over for legitimate measurements on my truck, but all I can seem to find is length w/o bumper, and width w/o mirrors. I honestly don't understand why they would base the length and width on this, but I'm not Chevrolet. It looks like the measurements on some sites that don't specify "without bumper" or "without mirrors" still match the ones that do specify them..... Anyway - Does anyone have, or know where to find ACTUAL measurements on their truck as it sits? Specs - 2016 Silverado 1500 crew cab short box (5'8) 2.5" level, 33s, factory 1500 mirrors (not tow) Thanks in advance!
