  1. Gloss black would look better, but I'd paint match the grill before ditching the chrome bumpers.
  2. New trucks are auto-learn TPMS. The sensors from your old truck won't work. Even the pre-refresh sensors won't work.
  3. Flat spacers would have been fine. You're paying for the Bora name. The only reason everyone cries about hub centric is they don't realize the bulge lugs are what actually centers the wheel, the hub ring only helps get you there. I ordered my truck back in 21 because I had the option to after the dealer couldn't find what I was looking for. I was able to order the 6.2L in the Custom Trail Boss trim and ordered the safety confidence package that includes the steering wheel audio controls as well as crash alert and pedestrian alert. I saw from your other thread you weren't able to order because ordering for regular cabs stopped months ago. I've been tempted by the 0% for 60 month financing GM has currently but I'd have to take what is in stock and can't find a diesel in the bright blue color because it too was built out months ago.
  4. The rear width is slightly wider than the front already and there's no caliper clearance issues so you won't need the spacers. I had run them on mine initially but it stuck out noticeably more so I've left them off since.
  5. I told you in your other thread all you need is a 6mm spacer. You don't need extended lugs either with the 5mm spacer. I really don't like extended lugs as they don't seat in the wheel if the studs are tight in the lug holes. The spacer size wasn't a guess for me. I had a set from a 2016 truck on my Avalanche and someone on this forum asked if they would fit a 2019+ truck. I test fit one and it didn't work as is. I had a 6mm spacer I was using for my summer wheels since they are aftermarket and didn't clear the calipers and the previous gen OEM wheels fit just fine.
  6. A 5mm slip on spacer is no big deal. I run them with my summer aftermarket 20" wheels. There's a LOT of thread still. It's not like you only have 3 or 4 turns of the lug. Been running this setup every summer for the past 5 years with no issues. I run true spacer/adapters in the winter with the stock wheels. 2" spacers that bolt on to the stock lugs and wheels bolt on to the lugs on the spacers. Again, 5 years with no issues.
  7. You haven't been off roading and hit a rock with that stock steel rear diff cover then. Seen several people who did and peeled it back enough to lose all the diff fluid. It's more to slide over stuff than protect from damage to the diff housing itself since it's cast iron. The big "ears" for bracing to the axle tubes are what will snag as well as the steel diff cover that hangs down below the diff housing. I ended up putting an AFE aluminum diff cover on which doesn't hang below the diff in the center.
  8. At least it was hopefully a relay. On my 2008 Avalanche I had a weird issue where the rear doors would lock, but not unlock via the power lock switch or remote. Turns out the unlock for the rear doors ONLY was BUILT INTO THE FUSE BLOCK on the end of the dash! I had to buy a whole new fuse block to fix the issue. Luckily it was cheap used.
  9. You don't list where you live, but there's known issues with the ground strap behind the passenger side fender well liner. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2026/02/some-chevy-silverado-1500-units-need-a-new-body-to-chassis-ground-strap/
  10. I have a Custom trim so I just have black rubber. I want to add the gloss black metal trim like the factory high trims. People with the chrome factory trim have done either vinyl or peel coat stuff.
  11. This is the only full outer trim covers I've seen in black: https://www.ebay.com/itm/397248020680 This is the crap I bought saying it was black stainless but the pictures in the listing I bought didn't show them flexing like this one so you KNOW they are plastic. https://ebay.us/m/xwjmbK
  12. From what I've read, 3.73s are the highest you can go with the front diff. This guy just put them in his truck: https://www.trailboss.org/threads/long-travel-wide-body-build.3892/page-5#post-37321
  13. The plastic "steel" ones I finally got the seller to refund me my money. They weren't happy but it was all of $14 shipped.
  14. I haven't been able to find the GM part numbers for the Denali or High Country trims that have the gloss black trim from the factory. I did see a kit on ebay that appeared to be a metal formed and stick on. The panels between the two doors are all plastic. I bought one that said it was black steel and I received it and it arrived as plastic. I was not happy.
  15. Why'd you buy another scanner if you already have one?
