  1. For those who are debadging their trucks, and have removed the gold bowtie from the tail gate, would you contact me by pm? I want one of them for my new truck. Thanks!
  2. Decided I'd rather have an older truck that I'm not making payments on and will do what I need it to do better than a half ton truck can. If anyone knows of a good late 90's early 2000's diesel GM truck, hit me up. Sent from my VK815 using Tapatalk
  3. Hate to sell it, but I cleaned it up for pics for the ad.
  4. That's what I was thinking, I love the two tone look, but everybody has done it wrong until now. This way looks awesome.
  5. Same axles, same motor and trans, stiffer springs, bigger brakes. Not a whole lot of difference.
  6. I looked for 6 months to find a green one in a lower trim level, but only ever found LTZ's and high country's. Then a month after I bought mine I found one. Such a pretty color.
  7. I got teased pretty good for adding the roll bar and lights to my '14, but I like it, so I don't care. Sent from my VK815 using Tapatalk
  8. So I found the correct pins, but dang if couldn't find a diode anywhere within a 30 miles of my place, so I'll have to order some. I did try it out with a jumper wire and the theory works, just need a diode so I can get it to work how I want. Sent from my VK815 using Tapatalk
  9. Thanks for that, I'll give it a go today. Sent from my VK815 using Tapatalk
  10. Make sure it's dark out? In a similar thought to wiring up the cargo lights to the reverse lights, which is btw, an awesome idea and I might do it if I can't figure out the way I really want to fix them. Is there a way I can do a diode jumper from the cargo lights to the interior lights? I want the cargo lights to come on with the interior lights, but not vice versa. Just like the way they used to on older trucks. I don't have access to wiring diagrams and I don't know where to look other than under the dash like has been described before. Any help?

  11. I have the S&B intake on mine, works very well, pretty easy to install too.
  12. Since no one wants chrome (don't blame anyone, I don't want chrome either) I painted the factory steps I had in bedliner and put them back on. We'll see how they hold up.
  13. Painted the factory chrome tube steps with bedliner material.
  14. Got the factory tube steps covered in bedliner and reinstalled them on my '14 after a good wash.
  15. Anyone have a set of the black tube steps (round or square) they would like to trade? I have the round chrome ones and want steps, but not shiny ones.

  17. Kid is ok, just really bummed out about it. His plastic Corolla looks far worse. My bumper didn't even move, just the wrinkle in the bed and a broken taillight housing.
  18. Gotta love a good bumper though, tore his Corolla up and my bumper didn't budge.
  19. I did this to my truck today: Well, my landlord's grandkid did this to my truck today...
  20. I installed an oil type filter in my truck, yet I've no such issues. Nor have I ever had issues with the oiled K&N filter replacement on my 99 Yukon. I'd find a different dealer.
  21. I put the S&B intake on my '14, and other than some noise, I didn't notice any real difference. But car manufacturers generally tune their motors fairly laid back, at least on my truck, my exhaust pipe is black from all the soot because of running rich with a timing curve that's pretty laid back, and torque management. Torque management really kills the responsiveness of the motor. As an example, my 99 Yukon feels more lively and powerful even though it has a 100 hp and 200,000 mile deficit compare to my '14, because of torque management. A tune can turn that off, which really makes the truck feel more peppy, and readjusting the ignition and fuel injection curves can make a real difference in both power and fuel economy. Get a quality tune though, cheap programmers are just that, cheap.
  22. Mine is the original as far as I know. It did have some trouble when I first bought it, but I figured that was because it sat at the dealer for over a month with only very short trips. But it's ok now.
