  1. Have you checked Ride Tech or Air Lift? They're big players in the air suspension game.
  2. I don't even like my Trail Boss shocks from new. It was kind of bouncy with the stock 20" wheels and I put on 20x10 wheels with -19 offset and 275/60/20 OEM Bridgestone ATs and it's even more bouncy now. I really think a rear sway bar would greatly improve the ride and handling. It would hinder it offroad but I'm going to look into sway bar disconnects and see if there's any that would work for an aftermarket rear bar.
  3. There is a ridge on the T1 calipers in front that cause clearance issues. You can fit older style wheels with a 5mm/1/4" spacer on the front. The aftermarket wheels I had on my Avalanche hit the ridge on the caliper and once I put the spacer on, it clears fine. They're small enough you still get plenty of thread on the lugs so no worries about it breaking the studs or lugs. Refresh has nothing to do with fitment. They've been the same since the T1's were introduced in 2019 as stated above.
  4. Check the owner's manual because it specifies in there how many miles you should have on it before any towing occurs. I still can't get past the 4 banger in a full size truck. My sales lady said her boyfriend had one and all his friends made fun of him for how it sounded when he got stuck in snow towing a snowmobile trailer. My 6.2 sounds mean with a muffler delete and I like it that way!. Best I've gotten is 20.8 and I average around 15.8.
  5. I had seen some fitment info on ebay that the handles fit 2014-2020, but I don't trust how accurate ebay descriptions are.
  6. There were news articles when the T1's came out that they were supposed to be lighter than the previous gen but got worse fuel economy. I didn't pay much attention at the time because I didn't have plans to buy a new truck back then.
  7. No complaints with mine. They were great in the snow this winter, but still had to use 4x4 to get up my bit of a hill driveway when it was frozen/packed snow and ice. They have been fine on the highway and took a trip from Michigan to Iowa with no issues. I picked up a set of Bridgestone AT's that were takeoffs from a guy with an AT4. I put them on the aftermarket set of wheels I had from my Avalanche. They look like a highway tire and not at all like an offroad tire. I even had a guy comment on having "car tires" on when I stopped at a dealer looking at the few 22 refreshes they had on the lot. Much rather have the aggressive look of the Territory's. I'll put them back on for winter.
  8. The expensive route would be buying RST color matched factory handles. The cheap route is stick on covers. I bought gloss black ones to match the rest of the gloss black bits on my Custom Trail Boss. I hate the textured black plastic so I replaced the mirror caps and covered the door handles. Up close you can see some spots where it doesn't quite cover it all, but it was about $25 vs hundreds for OEM handles.
  9. These are what I purchased for the round hole and oblong hole. LINK
  10. Mine pulls hard all the way till the 112mph cutoff. Wish it didn't have that so I could see where it tops out at. I'm not paying $500+ for a pulsar to get rid of it. Too many oddities with the Pulsar for me to want to spend the money. Still hoping for a good tune option. The HP Tuners hack isn't for me either.
  11. Looks pretty good for just being in gel coat. What wheels are those and what size are they?
  12. Part of the Custom Trail Boss package is LED tail lights. All other Custom trucks get regular halogen tail lights.

  14. Best I've gotten was 20.8 on 2 lane road with the cruise set to 63mph with the AC on. I did a trip out to Iowa and got 17.4 on the way back. I'm not sure if that was due to the straight gas vs the ethanol blend. Normally I'm 15.x MPG driving around locally mix of 2 lane and highway.
  15. If you already have the generic Bluetooth module, download the Torque app paid version. It's like $5 or was when I purchased it years ago. WELL worth the money and you can add PIDs to monitor various stuff the computer monitors.
  16. Because if you have a hitch in the receiver and you drop the gate with the inner gate down, it will hit and damage the inner gate.
  17. It says in the instructions there may be a wire in that location and to remove it and put the wire from the kit there. Unless you already had a wire in the underhood fuse block, you need to replace the one in the BCM connector with the one from the kit. The plug you see doesn't have anything to do with the fog lights. The harness plugs into the headlight wiring harness.
  18. Actually it IS available on Customs as mine is a Custom. I think it was a 2021 addition. Same with the Multi Flex tailgate.
  19. I picked up a power seat to install in my 2021 Custom Trail Boss. The seat was from a 2021 GMC Sierra. I didn't know it had heat until I pulled the cloth off to put my aftermarket leather covers on. I already have aftermarket seat heaters I purchased, but the factory ones are already installed and have the wiring pigtails for the top and bottom easily accessible. What I am trying to figure out is what the wiring setup is for them. There are 4 wires per pad. Red, Black, Red with black stripe and Black with red stripe. The elements are wire and not carbon fiber like my aftermarket ones. All a heated seat is is 12V + and 12V - run in a loop causing the wire to warm up. There is a thermosistor(or should be) in each pad to turn on and off the power when it reaches max temperature. I am trying to figure out how to wire this up to a relay and a 3 position switch like the aftermarket heaters have. The problem is the aftermarket ones only have 2 wires per pad, not 4. I had found mention that there is a controller module under the passenger seat in factory equipped trucks, but I only purchased the drivers side for the power part. Does anyone have any ideas before I rip off the factory pads and just use the aftermarket ones I have?
  20. You should check your tailgate again, it's a plastic cover, not bedlined. It matches the look, but it is a plastic cover. I have the factory bedliner and multi flex tailgate I ordered from the factory.
  21. Your upgrade is why I spent the $390 for the Safety Confidence package that has the cluster you installed and the wheel with all the buttons. Sadly it wasn't leather wrapped so I bought a new wheel that was leather wrapped because I hate the urethane crap and trying to do a leather wrap over the stock wheel would look like crap. Factory wrap is so much cleaner looking.
  22. They're AWESOME in the snow! I got the 20" wheel package and it came with the Territory's. I bought a set of Bridgestone AT's that were takeoffs from an AT4 and put them on another set of 20" aftermarket wheels. I can't believe they call the Bridgestone's AT's because they look like a normal highway tire to me. Guy with the AT4 I got them from was pissed they weren't aggressive MTs. I had Duratracs on my Avalanche and I didn't think they were bad or noisy.
  23. Yes you need an alignment. The camber adjustment is in the lower arms on the T1's. Previous gen trucks the upper arms were where the camber alignment was located.
  24. You replace the upper control arm, NOT the bottom. The angle of the ball joint needs to be adjusted for the lift, hence the new upper control arm with revised ball joint angle.
  25. In the settings menu you can turn the screen off.
