    It took 5 years for the 6112's to actually be released and available for the '14-'18 K2 GM trucks.

    This was my guess also. The old greasing of the steering shaft boot........

    Was it the "Tenneco" branded Rancho?

    Mine lasted around 30k miles but looked 20 years old on the outside. I called them my pogo sticks and happily switched to Bilstein 5100s.

    The Early years of K2 GM platform trucks had this same issue. Dealer attempted fix consisted of plastic clips that kept the seat bracket from shifting to the side causing the clunk. My fix was a rubber hose and clamp! Sounds like the T1 trucks are plagued by some of the same problems as the K2s Along with creaky rear leaf springs and other. Here is a 70 page thread on the seat popping noise issue. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/154219-seat-movement-issues/page/70/#comments

    Shut down the Wet Markets and bring back manufacturing to the homeland. Just my humble opinion.

    +2 on this. The K2 trucks have this warm up tick also.

    Range type devices only add a band aid to the potential problems and are not a true "delete". Here is a great site explaining why a delete kit works better than tuning afm out electronically. Just my 2 cents. http://bdturnkeyengines.com/afm-dod-info

    There is a special coverage warranty on the Vacuum Pump. For 6 years or 72k miles as long as the dealer confirms that the Pump as bad.

    How do you like the Open Country tires TK ?

    I would not confess that the zevos are better than say other 921s you can get online based on some pics and reviews read within this site. Yes they do bring out the "lines" from the clear lens but then again i remember my halogens did also. The same bulb works in the cargo lights. I have the same set you linked to above.

    They will fit any K2 so it is possible your bed is newer or they were stuck on after the fact LOL

    The newer models came from the factory with black plastic stick on cab and front lower bed corner protectors. Earlier K2s did not. Any of you 2016 and up owners know what i am talking about or have pictures of yours on the truck?
  16. Sierra Dan
    Notice any difference?
  17. Sierra Dan
    2014 and 2015 models did not come with the plastic cab/bed corner protectors
  18. Sierra Dan
    The 72k mile cap is a joke. Especially for us early 14 and 15 owners who are/were already disqualified when this recall bulletin was issued due to 4-5 years of racked up mileage.

    So who has had the brake software update? Did you truck improve or get worse? I have already read here where it made braking worse.
  20. Sierra Dan
    Who else has had the "update" performed? Did it make your truck worse or better? wait for the recall to get the brake booster replaced? You mean the Vacuum Pump? What year and mileage is your truck?
  21. Sierra Dan
    Good news indeed Truston Now we all have to get in line for the Brake Software Recall
  22. Sierra Dan
    Sorry to confirm your suspicion, but yes yours is leaking. If mechanically inclined you can replace yourself for under $200 including new refrigerant.

    Could be the oil pump. This was a common noise on the earlier 14 and 15 K2 trucks. Possibly alternator as well.
  24. Sierra Dan
    The pump is around $135 + the new serpentine belt if you so choose to replace. From what i hear it takes about 1-2 hours or so to change out. Here is a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRNXYmD30e8

    This recall however does not take care of the known faulty Vacuum Pump. Faulty Pump recall came about a few months back where they replace the pump if a loss of braking power is detected. This software update is a band aid quicker and cheaper fix than replacing the root problem. Aside from a possible loss in braking power...……..when the pump goes, it causes metal shavings to enter the oil system thus possibly grenading the engine. Which is another good reason for replacing the newer upgraded Vacuum Pump.
