Hi all - been dealing with an issue for a while now and it's finally gotten bad enough that I need to resolve it. On occasion, I've attempted to start my truck (1500 High Country w/ 6.2L) and it just clicks once. Other times, it will start right up but I'll get an almost continual barrage of warning messages (e.g. Service Trailer Brake, etc.). What I've found has helped me eliminate the issues (in the short term) has been to pull the key, lock the steering wheel, and actually rotate the entire steering column a few degrees. I'm doubtful I should be able to rotate the column at all in the first place, and wondering if that play has actually caused some sort of a short in the steering column wiring harness. Can anyone speak to whether there's a wire in the column that would prompt the starter to simply click instead of turn over? My mechanic (a solid Chevy guy) says any clicking like that is an indicator my starter is going bad and that I may also have a wiring harness issue, but considering I've been able to resolve the starter issue every time by rotating the column, I'm pretty convinced this is a wiring issue and don't really want to jump to replacing the starter yet. That being said, I do need resolve the issue ASAP as it's occurring more and more frequently and getting harder and harder to get it to resolve itself. Any help is appreciated! David

This is even more reassuring as I hadn’t even checked whether his was also a 1500 like mine. Thank you!

Thank you!!!

As the title mentions, i’m about to drive six hours to pick up a Leer 100RCC canopy and just want to confirm that the model used for a 2015 double cab would be the same as a 2014 crew cab if they both are 6.5’ beds? I can’t imagine there being a difference, but you never know with these things! Thanks in advance for the help. David

Thanks for the explanation. It’s much appreciated! Seems like you’ve got it tuned nicely.

Pardon my ignorance, but two questions for you: 1. is this what they consider a leveling kit? I don’t see anything in the kit that addresses height in the back. 2. how is it adjustable from 0-3” of loft? How do you have adjustable height that doesn’t sacrifice steering and suspension geometry?

What Camburg kit did you go with? I'm coming from an 80 Series Land Cruiser so this whole IFS thing is new to me, but I really like your setup.
