I already had a cold air intake and the. Borla exhaust when i installed all this , not sure if there were any real gains but i am very happy with it, i know im late with my response

You wont need the grill or the bumper. You'll need the hood and the hinges and springs at the bare minimum. The intake duct work, the hood vent, all of the clips associated with it. I dont have my parts list but lots of guys on here do.

I'm not sure I did the borla exhaust around the same time but it does feel pretty good.

The 2500 sir box fits in the stock 1500 location

Yea I was recommended to do it that way from the start by a buddy

This is how I ended up doing the air box

This ended up not working we used a k&n cold air intake tube and just trimmed it to fit the ram air box

2500 ram air box mated to stock intake .

Just painted mine Friday, hopefully we will have it on next week. We are doing the ram air box too that the hood lines up with.

My truck has the rugged cover 2 on it and it's pretty water tight... I never see wet spots inside and I live in Louisiana. It also has led lights built into the back panel. https://www.realtruck.com/rugged-premium-hard-fold-tonneau-cover/

Man this is a real bummer I feel for u guys. I cant believe the extra cost of this and the fact it was so poorly designed. My Sierra Denali came with a dealer installed bed cover thing and its never wet inside. Even here in Louisiana where it rains for days at a time. It crazy that GM will just kinda write off the very high trim level trucks which are pretty much all profit to dealers .

Yea it was morning time lots of Dew here . The inside is kinda what sold me on it , it's got the rear entertainment like my suburban and the kids really like that. I'm gonna do the hd hood swap they talk about in another thread I think.
