I swore I wouldn't use anything but the BFG All Terrains on my trucks - except I don't like the slightly tighter tread pattern on the KO3 vs KO2. I'm leaning towards the HD Terrain. This struck me as odd, because tread life is part of what makes a 'good' tire to me. Not arguing, calling you out or insulting...

Have you pulled the ABS fuse to rule out ABS activation in the rear?

Had to go back and refresh myself with the thread. Looks like the last freeze frame data was showing a dig differential between the banks on fuel trim. That is controlled by O2 sensors - doesn't look like you were able to determine whether that was a cylinder specific problem though. You may have gambled correctly the O2 sensor could have been miss-reading and altering the fuel trim incorrectly to the point of an induced miss fire.

What are the ceiling parameters? Are those Banks or GMs?

Thats funny!

Then its not a miss. See next. Take this off. In order to diagnose (including OBD) eliminate unknown variables. No telling how the device keeps the DOD from functioning, but it certainly won't help. This sounds transmission related - your code reader may not be picking up all trouble codes. Given how hot it got, inspect the transmission fluid. Consider a flush, it might be cooked. Is the check engine light on? Can you monitor torque converter lock up?

Who's got the data for how much colder the IAT's are on a stock GM intake vs. the GM CAI?

I think the best solution is... The EV Silverado is not the same truck as the ICE Silverado. It should be. Just like how Ford converted the lightning. They should have taken the ultium battery packs and squeezed them in around the frame rails. Throw the front and rear drive motors in and call it a day. That storage compartment at the front? Totally encapsulated prepackaged range extender. It doesn't matter what it is use the 1.2l 3 cylinder. All it does is sit up there and hum away at fixed RPM recharging the batteries, when the grid, regenerative braking, etc. isn't recharging them. The ultium battery pack that is so big and heavy - halve it. 100 miles of chargeless range is fine. Especially, if I know that my little generators is going to pick up the slack. The generator is going to re-use all the refueling infrastructure in place too. Waiting at a charger for hours, nope, re fuel the generator in 15 minutes and go on. The generator will never directly power the wheels, its power output can be minscule. You never need all 400+ hp of any engine all the time now. Coasting, idling, cruising, parked - it recharges batteries; as long as it can keep the batteries from fully depleting.

Weight distribution hitches can lessen the tongue weight. The weight taken off the trucks rear axle goes to the trucks front axle and trailer axles - mostly the trucks front axle, The lesser tongue weight won't usually be enough to make a difference.

I'm just talking... ...anything specific would be to my 18.

Yep, no pictures. Honestly, I think they would make the 'review' worse with additional confusion and paranoia. Its a bunch of wires. The screen does seem to sit a little low and I understand why many other makes are making them higher - it seems like a more natural line of sight. The top of the screen is about where the 8" screen was, but some much more is down lower that it feels overall lower. Which is weird in itself because this generation's dash always felt like a giant vertical wall in front of you that you have to look over compared to the GMT900. I've learned the more appropriate term for the Chinese "Auto Head Unit OS" is the "Android Car Launcher" its an app and there are others to pick from, each of those apps having there own themes as well. Finding one I like is next. They all have a weird focus on speedometers that use the GPS, don't need one, I already have a speedometer, and I need to move the GPS antennae. Need to get steering wheel buttons figured out. Maybe an onboard app that I connect to an ELM thing to pull up codes or other stuff with out having to use my code reader/scanner. Maybe monitor other PIDs besides what my Banks gauge already does, so low priority.

Were the converters weld in or replace the whole y-pipe? Brand? O2 Sensors brand? New sensors (parts) does not equal good Sensors (parts). As an easy check swap the two upstream sensors side to side and see if the 'lean' bank swaps sides too.

These head units are everywhere, they are cheap, and of course suspect quality. I bought one anyway. Here's why, my factory screen would randomly take some time off, sometimes it would come back on when you restart, sometimes it needed the night off. It was just the display, the touch functions still worked, the sound still worked, you just couldn't see anything; annoying. Checked the internet recommended frequent problems to no avail. New display $150-200, Amazon part, Amazon quality. Not reassuring. I never cared for the display integration in this generation dash, it looked too small in its bezel, the control knob below it is a material smorgasbord of black to chrome to black to silver... and discreetly below all that. A CD player, from the 1900's. The half dozen buttons, 8" screen, and CD player look so spread out on the bezel it almost like they downsized the screen at the last minute and spread everything out on the bezel. Side note: No need to maybe consider bringing the seat HVAC controls up from behind the shifter to anyone's line of sight. Looking at all the products on Amazon is mind numbing, the reviews are pointless, the specifications are all over the place, prices vary quite a bit, Android tablet size, Android version, core quantity, RAM amount, memory size, etc. Buyer beware. Based strictly on the pictures I knew I wanted a 10" tablet, as I alluded to above, this size seems like what GM wanted to put in to begin with - then that guy from the 1900's came around and pointed out the missing CD player. Then the guy who wears gloves, pointed out lack of volume knob... I get that one, I kind of miss the knob. If the unit functioned like a piece of junk and sounded terrible - I would be hard pressed to swap it out. It looks perfect there. How I picked the tablet I ended up with? Start with 10" tablet, some mention or acknowledgement that Bose adaptation is possible, most recent Android version, then the highest numbers for the rest. Except price, lowest price. ...experience Amazon buying experience... Opening the unit is intimidating. Wires, wires, wires, wires, wires, wires, wires. Some plugs, wires, a panel removal tool (cool freebie nowhere in the description), a speaker, a reverse camera, two sets of reverse camera cables, A hopelessly optimistic single page installation sheet. Slightly more realistic owners manual. And the unit, mounted in the bezel. Then the Bose Fiber Optic Adapter, one obscure box, another set of wires (see above), no instructions, no manual. I watched some youtube videos, paying close attention that they were installing into a similar truck WITH Bose. Everything is supposed to be plug and play - just finding the right plug to play with is the key. It seems that there are essentially two harness typically provided, one that makes the truck plug in to some of the devices (I call this one the one with the green plug) and another that connects the devices to the Android (I think they call this one the power cable.) This green plug harness ended up being a hitch in my giddy-up, the FIRST Bose adapter I bought didn't come with its own green plug harness... I had to return that one, and buy one from the same 'store' as my Android came from - it showed a new 'green plug' harness included with it. Physical installation is simple enough. Pop the bezel off, disconnect seats, set aside. Unscrew factory display and pull out, disconnect and set aside. Unscrew, remove, disconnect, set aside CD player. Remove two screws at bottom of glove box, open, remove two screws at top of glove box, pull out and set aside. Behind the glove box is where the reverse camera harness plugs in. Like most of these harnesses, unplug the factory connection and plug it into the new harness, plug the new harness into the truck where it plugged in previously. Run the new harness up behind everything to where the new unit will install. Put the glove box back. The steering column cover has to come off to connect the steering wheel control harness. It's pretty brutal - I think it breaks, you'll think it breaks. Grab the tilt lever and proceed to pull with all your might straight out of the truck towards the drivers door - but not so hard that when it comes loose and smack yourself in the head you don't knock yourself out. It gets worse. The bottom pulls straight off down. There are clips at the holes on the bottom, that I suppose with enough probing you could accidently get them to release, but not likely. Instead, you'll pull on the bottom until it sounds like you've literally ripped it to pieces and smashed you're hands down into you lap filled with broken glass, because that's obviously where the blood comes from. Hard part over, there is a steering wheel harness in the kit, unplug truck, plug into harness, plug harness into truck. I spent some time carefully zip tying this little bundle of joy up tight to make sure the shroud has the best chance of going back on. Run the new signal wires behind the knee panel, that conveniently and effortlessly just pulls forward, up to where the new Android unit will be. Put the knee panel back. Put the top shroud back on, put the bottom shroud back on, carefully aligning it to the top shroud AND AT THE SAME TIME use your third hand to align the rubber shifter boot. Snap it all back together. Convince yourself the gap is the same size it was before. Transfer the HVAC controls from the old bezel to the new one. I bought some USB A to mini adapters so that I could run the '6 PIN' USB cable down to the factory USB plugs in the console. The rest is really easy. Referencing the youtube install video, unplug the truck and plug it into the 'green plug' harness, plug in the CANBUS Box, plug in the Bose adapter box, then start plugging things into the Android unit; the 'power cable', antennae adapter, reverse camera, steering wheel control, USB's, GPS antennae, etc. After I had everything plugged in, I carefully untangled and stretch the wires out and began zip tying them into one bundle. The CANBUS and Bose box have a nice home where the CD player was. Then carefully fed and tucked this mess back into the dash. Basic function check at this point is a good idea. Attach it with four screws from removal. Reattach seat HVAC controls and reattach bezel. Admire the finished product. Turn it on and get lost in menus and preferences and where is CARPLAY? What is this snowflake button randomly floating in the screen? How do I turn 'button press beep' off? CARPLAY isn't called CARPLAY... its something else, but once it's connected - it's CARPLAY - and wireless - and comes back on every time you start the truck back up - you might never have to leave CARPLAY. I'm not a CARPLAY fan but its clean and simple (more on that to follow) and plays my music and makes calls, everything I need this thing to do. Learn new Android Head unit. That's as far as I've got with this thing. To put it simply, I think the Android OS runs a 'auto head unit' software as a new 'OS' of sorts, it has access to Android/Google apps but I haven't seen an Android tablet home screen. About that 'Auto head unit OS' So far pretty useless to me, not very customizable (yet), there are default three main apps displayed here. A car, that has a speed listed, but its blank (I think the GPS antennae is going to have to move to on top of the dash). A music app that can play music loaded to the devices hard drive (who does that?), an FM radio app (from the 1900's) there is a page of/for loaded apps. This device can connect to my iphones hotspot for internet use, but it doesn't do it automatic (yet?), so I can access the Google Play Store and whatever else. Biggest problem - I'm not an Android guy, so I have a learning curve of what is Android here vs. Chinese "Auto Head Unit OS". I'm not really sure what it can and can't do yet. Supposedly the '6 PIN' USB cable allows screen mirroring - but I haven't tried it yet. I'd lie to see what I can do for a home screen that better suits my need, there is nothing on it except the app shortcut to CARPLAY that is useful. Track up button on the steering wheel doesn't, track down on the steering wheel tracks up. Volume buttons work. Reverse camera works, but the guidelines behave terribly, I'd like to turn them off. Links to the only three things I bought to make this work: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CHF62MMG?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D9Y95VR8?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09FXQ9TXL?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

This kind of question always leads me down the 'why isn't my next truck a base model' road. Things that are a must vs. things aftermarket does better, looks... 1. Leather - easy to clean. 2. Climate control - handy. 3. Heated steering wheel - stupid, but by far one of my favorite options. 4. Leather wrapped steering wheel - its the one thing you touch every minute you're in the truck. ...not far from base model. I hate to say I'm an apple fanboy but carplay entertainment is clean and simple and works. All I need on my dash is a well integrated screen to mirror my phone. The stereo in my current truck isn't my favorite, sound quality, but I can't justify spending the thousands to get it where I want plus the compromises on how the current double-din units look in the dash of my truck. Conveniently, I'm in the process of learning my new Android based head unit, yes, the cheap ones on Amazon. Reason, one, my current screen would sometimes cut out. I'm fairly certain it was just the display because touch functions would still work along with everything else. You just couldn't see it. Cost for replacement part $150-200. Cost for the Android thing I bought $200 (Great) but it required a $200 Bose adapter to work (Yikes). Its a 10" tablet, and fits the dash better than the 8" with antiquated CD player. Point of all this, maybe building a sound system independent of the truck is the easiest thing, if you can resolve the screen integration in a way you like. In my case I could now go out of the Android thing to any aftermarket audio devices I wish. A set of amplifiers, speakers, etc. (avoiding the $200 adapter in the process.) The head unit I have has a robust equalizer, some other settings for cross over and sub woofers that aren't helpful with Bose and based off my previous experience with aftermarket higher end units like Kenwood, I think this unit could produce comparable sound quality with enough fiddling. In other words for $200 Kenwood, Pioneer - aren't even close to competing. If their trying to win high end (audiophile) crowd their going to have to figure out how to get past the double -din box they've got themselves in. (Example: Buddy needs a head unit in his Nissan Altima - the display is bad. Nothing from Crutchfield for under $600. We're going to put an Android in his too with a bigger screen.)

Well, it IS a good story. Not doing something because you don't want to is YOUR free choice. Not following the maintenance schedule on your truck is your choice too - don't follow it and you will quickly learn that your trucks creator may have known what they were talking about after all. Sharing something you find valuable and helpful wth others isn't hard or boring. Thats why we are on this forum in the first place. None of the information shared is meant to be harmful or offensive, just like telling someone that their house is on fire and they should evacuate isn't offensive. Maybe even telling someone that the FIRE THEY STARTED is going to be harmful to them. Some people would value that warning, some would ignore it, some might hate it. The beauty of our free will in action. I'm not calling you out or arguing with you, simply replying to your comment. No offense intended nor has any been taken.

Of course we all have free will, what benefit would there be to create beings with the ability to serve, worship, love but no choice to exercise those abilities. However we do not have the ability. Jer. 10:23. The entire history of mankind, while dotted with magnificent achievements has failed in every meaningful category. Every human rulership has failed to end suffering, violence, sickness, strife, pain, hunger, homelessness, injustice, inequality, etc. Our chance at ruling our selves began in the garden of Eden, and has already ended, specifically in 1914. The question remains then, who does have the right to rule mankind? Who has the ability? "In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever." This prohecy has not been fullfilled.

...he was observing from afar and gave us the communication we need via his Word. Would I welcome his voice? Would I fear it? Would I seek it? Would I obey it? Godly fear is not to live in terror of him, it is a reverential fear of displeasing him.

Were any transmission temperature codes logged? It may not have overheated the transmission. What was the failure from the overheat? What caused the overheat?

Both sides? Both on the front? What brand parts? Other modifications? Current miles? Odd tire wear? Brakes condition? If I understand your post correctly, both factory front wheel hubs went bad at the same time, replaced both with new, then those went bad too?

I think the symptoms need to become more pronounced for a more accurate diagnosis.

Start at square 1. Complete vehicle information. (Year, make, model, engine, mileage, etc.) Current condition and problems. Modifications and repairs made to date with the reason for each. Does the engine start and idle? Why are you applying the brake and throttle at the same time? Why are you replacing the ECU?

The satellite antenna is separate but within the same shark fin on the roof. The seal at the bottom has been known to not drain water and flood the internals causing them to corrode and fail. Buy a new antenna with seal and replace.

Presume you're not getting 12v at the plug... It has its own fuse, Trailer Battery.
