Mine came with one from the factory. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

What condition are your tires in? Worn tires will always-always-always feel sloppy. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

Your engine will handle that just fine. Use Tow/Haul mode, and you're already ahead of the game with the Range module. I just put one in my 2017 and wish I had done it sooner. Smooth and strong. Set your driver info screen to display your transmission temperature just to keep an eye on it. It will get a little hotter than it usually does, but it shouldn't run away either.

65-70 is probably a bit optimistic. I think 55-60 is probably going to be a more stable speed. Does the trailer have brakes? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

The universe is trying to send you a message. Go Android! Come to the dark side, we have less expensive phones that work great! [emoji1787] That's a problem for the dealer. If they can't get it to work, they need to replace your radio. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

Still too high with no load. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

That is too high. I live in Central Florida and our ambient air temp is about 85-93F, and I am usually between 185-190F. Your transmission thermostat is probably stuck shut. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

2014 Tahoes and Suburbans got the same L83 (Not LS) that the Silverado got, but ok. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

That is for the LS engines. GM stopped building AFM LS engines with the 2013. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

2014 Double Cab 1500 LT, Z60 5.3, 6L80E Needed regular oil changes, air filter, cabin filter, front brake pads and rotors and shocks at 100k. AC kept shitting the bed. Otherwise a good truck. Headlight bulbs around 90k. 2017 Crew Cab 1500 LT, Z85, 5.3, 6L80E Oil changes, air filter at 50k, diff change at 50k, at 67k now and not a single major problem. AC is different from my 2014 and seems much better. I do have a catch can on, but saw no issues on my 2014 related to oil and carbon buildup. Seems like a good truck, these K2s. I don't have much bad to say. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

I think I have seen maybe 5 or 6 since the K2 trucks first appeared, not counting the white WTs. When I bought my 2014, I would have loved to get a RCSB. I went with a double cab instead, and a few years later to the crew cab. The majority I see here in Central Florida are crew cabs of various trim levels. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

Where did all these RCSBs come from? Never saw one on the lot. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

If your phone is connected to the truck through Android Auto or Apple Carplay(Projection), you can send a response text by voice. It works pretty good. Alternatively, if you are not plugged in for Projection, you can reply using the screen, but you can only select a generic message from the list. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

Have you tested the battery? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

I usually have my radio turned down so I can hear my CB. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

There are three volume settings. One for radio and audio inputs, one for the navigation (if equipped), and one for the phone. Next time you are on your phone via your truck or on nav, turn the volume knob. You will see it's separate. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

That's an extra step. The truck will recall volume settings. Just turn it to 0. Full functionality of the rest of the screen, no radio sound regardless of the audio source it is set to. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

Pull the fuse? Radio on is the default. Seems like keeping the radio volume at 0 would be ideal so that you maintain functionality of the other features in the touch display, like the phone. The truck won't forget the volume setting between shutdown and startup. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

I had one in the GMT800 series. The rear was a different animal entirely, but the front was the same as what you'd find in a pickup. In the old days, the trucks/full size vans/SUVs had front springs that depended on chassis (1500/2500/3500) as well as what engine was in it. A 1500 van with a 350 had the same springs as a 1500 truck and SUV with 350. They may do more fine tuning of springs that also account for the frame length and body configuration. That I am unsure of with the K2s. A good way to check would be to do a p/n check for springs between a 5.3 Tahoe and a 5.3 1500 truck, then make changes to the search to look at other cab configurations and see what they use. The shock will change depending on suspension package, as a Z60 and Z85 have very different "feel" on the road. I have a Z85 CC with 5'8" bed now, and running my tires at 38 PSI cold makes that truck ride like it's on clouds yet feel firm enough to give assurance. My Z60 double cab felt a lot more sports car-like, and rode like it was on rails. The drawback to that was that I could feel a lot more characteristics of the road, which can make it ride a bit harsher. Wheel size and corresponding tire has an effect as well. They all have roughly the same diameter stock, since the smaller wheel has taller sidewall tires (ex: 18" wheel with P265-65-R18). As such, there will be a bit more flexion or "give", when compared to a 20" wheel and P275-55-R20 tire at the same pressure. This translates to a more cushioned ride.

They do, it's just not readily apparent. They cannot and do not use the same front springs in a 6.2L as they would for a 4.3L. I'd bet there are differences in the rear as well, but to get the lighter spring, you're going to have to choose a truck with the right configuration. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

This is exactly it. It's important to look at suspension package (choices are Z71, Z85, Z60) and also look at what rear axle you have. There are several gear ratios and depending on which you have, your differential case is one of three sizes. I believe the 9.5" is the largest. This dimension is on the passenger side of the diff on the flange that runs midway, horizontally. Larger dimension is to accommodate the physically larger gear that goes inside. Generally, the 3.42 or 3.73 (on the max tow, in some cases) is going to have the higher GVWR. When that is coupled with the larger available engine, you're getting a firmer riding truck. There are 5.3s with factory 3.08 rear ends, I believe that you may find those in the WT or LT1 trim. Higher trim level usually means heavier duty suspension and drivetrain, but not always in the cases of custom ordered vehicles. I do know this: A 4.3 truck with the 3.08 has a significantly lower rating across the board. Lightening up the spring from what it came with means that the spring will be cycled more, and those cycles will be greater in displacement. It means faster wearing of parts, as well as lowering the actual capacity of the truck. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

Try a midsize truck then. [emoji2369] You know a Tahoe is pretty much a 1500 with a rear stabilizer bar right? There is also an important thing to consider when buying. Suspension packages ride different from each other. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

Are you talking about a 1500? If a stock spring 1500 rides too harsh, maybe a truck isn't for you. Unloaded 2500 and 3500s are harsh. The 1500 really isn't. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

Try something simple first. Spray some Seafoam or CRC into the intake. Follow the instructions on the can (spray it downstream of the MAF) and hold about 2000 RPM while spraying. Probably just a little carbon built up. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk

E85 in a stock truck that will burn it is a noticeable change. I agree, shame they don't offer an ethanol tune. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J727A using Tapatalk
