  1. Bumpity bump-bump. Rolling back home (2600 miles) at 4AM, so hoping against hope. Thanks.
  2. I've searched the interwebs in vain. There are about as many different answers as there are stars in the sky. 2019 Chev 3500 SRW long bed. What, pray tell, are the correct torque specs for the factory leafspring U-Bolts? On a three-week camping trip and the well-known clunk is getting unbearable (about as unbearable as these pop-up ads), so I want to give this a shot first. Thanks!!
  3. I always wondered what duck butter was used for. Now I know. Geeszch.
  4. Same here (2019 3500 SRW). Braked a bit harder than normal as a light changed quickly. It Sounded and felt like I had a loose keg rolling into the front of the bed/bulkhead. I looked int eh mirror to see if someone bumped me. I have bags and prior to this I was running them pretty high due to a heavy trailer (10k triple axle). However, I did not have the trailer hooked up at the time and bag pressure was lowered. I assume the springs were bound a bit from the tow and let loose. Only 32k on the clock. Pretty disconcerting.
  5. Thank you. Neither scenario is at play here, however.
  6. When I road trip, I'm like a machine. I just keep driving and driving and driving, without stopping. After a number of hours, my GPS will start showing my location as anywhere but on the actual road (which is a big hassle if I have a destination plugged in). In at the dealership (warranty) and of course they can not duplicate it (duh. Unless you fill the tank, grab a 12 pack of Diet Pepsi, bag of jerky, and head out across the US for a few hours, you're not going to duplicate it). The immediate fix is to pull over and shut down the pickup. If starting right back up, the problem continues. It takes a few minutes (for example, while fueling) for the system to reset and for the GPS to start working correctly again. Generally not an issue, but if I have a big road trip it is a problem. Anyone else have this problem? Did you get it resolved? Thanks.
  7. Shopping for a topper/shell and I keep seeing 2019 3500 excluded from the application lists. The products that interest me usually indicate 2020-on. I did not think there were any big changes to the beds or rear of the cab between 2019 and 2020, but perhaps I'm wrong. Can anyone shed some light? Thanks!
  8. After a couple of trips to the dealer, they found a leak and fixed it. No issue since. Well, no issue with the AC since. Brakes went to crap, but that's for another thread.
  9. Took it in. Freon was low. No leak detected. Dye added in hopes of finding the leak. Still not sure that was the cause as it only failed on a 100 degree day, but perhaps. Unfortunately, no more 100 degrees this year. Got my heater plug cut off and an unexpected bonus :-(
  10. I imagine it's a computer board that just can't handle the heat. Worked fine once I parked in the shade after a couple hours. Works fine this AM as well. My guess is they won't be able to diagnose the problem this season. Guess I better turn that appointment into an oil change as well so I don't completely waste my time.
  11. '19 3500 L5P (black/black) Over 100 today and AC isn't working. My guess is the climate control computer got really hot and that caused it. Was in direct sun for about 3 hours. After leaving in shade at home, it's now working. Pretty lame. Anyone have this issue? Is there a fix? Hate to waste a day at the dealer just to be told is a-okay. (Compressor clutch wasn't engaging, by the way. Ice cold now that it's working again). Thanks.
  12. Old post, but... I've ordered a set of 19393290 for my 3500HD. Won't get a chance to install them until the start of April, but happy to report back if still interested.
