OThink they are separate if I understand what you are asking. With that said, i would be wary of the 'Vader Chrome'. Mine started peeling last week all of a sudden in several spots. I have yet to take it in but did search online and apparently it is a common issue with those particular grills. It appears like its a very thin tint or something over the regular chrome grille. Don't know what if any warranty yiu would get if you just bought the parts.

After I cleaned it

Been doing some maintenence (oil, fuel filter, etc) and decided to pull my MAP sensor. Truck has 21,xxxkm (13k miles). It was fairly plugged up. Its simple to remove. I popped the hood, waited an hour to make sure the truck was sleeping, popped the connector off, took out the 10mm bolt, cleaned the soot off with MAF sensor cleaner, let it dry for 30 minutes and reinstalled. Will likely start doing this at every oil change.

I don't believe either my 21 or 22 had separate turn signal functionality in the taillight assembly. The one LED strip (C) did double duty. With that said, the Aussie light could have been modified for their laws which I believe from living there 20 years ago state that the turn and brake lights need to ge separate and I am almost sure the turn functionality must be amber.

I feel if he hasn't figured it out in the 6 years since he posted it, he probably never will lol

Scroll through the thread below. I put both Huskies and the WT on my truck and ended up with the latter. Both are much better than the GM accessories ones that I had on my previous three trucks.

They come with the locking pin for the height adjustment (at least mine did). You can opt to have the receiver lock keyed alike or buy it separately and deal with two different keys. I checked and my balls lol are 8k for the 2" and 18.5k for the 2 5/16. The case is helpful as well if you don't just leave the hitch in.

I have a Weighsafe hitch, very well made, does not rattle loaded or not and the quick adjustment for the drop allows me to tow all sorts of different trailers level. I think the 2" ball is rated at 8k lbs.

Out of curiosity, why would you want to have a turn signal function in your marker lights?

Vehicles generally draw air from the cowl area by the windshield. If you have it to full cold but are not running the A/C, it will be unheated (by the heater core), outside air. If the air around the cowl heats up from idling in place for example, you will get air that is that temp. When you cycle the A/C, it removes the heat from the air. Driving blows higher volumes of fresh air by the cowl so you get back to relatively outside temps.

Wouldn't hurt to check it though.

When looking at the rear end ratios, be sure to take into account the transmission as well to compare apples to apples. For example, the ten speed with the 3.42 will actually have a lower first gear ratio than the six speed with the 3.73.

Makes sense to me on the 1 tons out there. I am pretty sure here it's by weight but I'm not 100%

I am in Ontario. This truck was definitely a dealer order for inventory. I did take pictures of the rear spring pack of the old truck right before I traded it in so I could compare the difference myself as I wanted to know. They both appear to be a pack of four with an overload spring on the bottom. The additional 2 on top seems to be the major difference outside of what could be thickness, spring rate etc. that I have no idea about. The length and where the spring is wrapped at the rear anyways could be different as well. Both trucks are 2024 2500 Denali Ultimate. The 3/4 ton trucks seem to be a lot more prevalent here in Ontario than their 1 ton cousins.

Mine has that and I frankly wonder why it says 2500 in the side instead of 3500 unless there are other differences I don't know about. The spring pack is definitely more stout. My first 24 was a real 2500. I don't notice any real difference in ride, the road here are so terrible the ride in a civic is fairly brutal.

I'm on my 2nd 2024 and I don't remember either having that option.

In Canada they are an option on some trim levels of 2500/3500 trucks although most have them. I am on my fourth with them, same as mentioned above and no problem yet.

I could be mistaken but I don't believe the DEF is heated when plugged in. DEF freezes at -11C and it just freezes until the heater thaws it (powered by the truck when running). It does not expand like water. Agree though when cold, the Diesels make all sorts of noise as the idle up, drag the torque converter or whatever.

If it is 'normal' why doesn't every trick do it. My 2024 (first) did it and they were going to replace it but i traded it in before the parts came. My second 24 doesn't do it (yet) and neither my 21 nor 22 did it. This is a cop out for shoddy workmanship in my opinion.

Some of the insurance companies up here in Canada have jacked premiums and added a $1,500 surcharge on insurance for these trucks given how easy they seemingly are to steal. I would take the 'inconvenience' of having to use a key to start it any time.

Don't have the wiring diagram but my '21, '22 and first '24 all did this. Although I have towed with my new one, I have yet to have a trailer tooked up when it's not running. I read somewhere that it is the trailer module but never had any of them looked at before I got rid of them.

I remember back in the day it had a 2008 Sierra half ton that had heated washer fluid. Great idea but they recalled them all and even though i tried to avoid it, they eventually disabled it and gave ne a cheque for $100 or something due to the loss of feature. That or a heater grid would solve this for sure. Are you listening GM?

Maui - if you have the HUD, you will have these buttons to the left of the wheel:

Makes sense as I imagine the regular cab doors are longer so you can reach stuff behind the seat and whatnot whereas CC models have the pillar in the way.
