You guys have some really nice toys you're towing there! :dunno:

 

I tow two snowmobiles and a seadoo. I don't have any pictures as of yet :D I'll have to work on that. You guys make me jealous though with all your toys.

I only towed it once and it was from next to the garage to the back of the property for the winter, so that's the only picture I have for now. There is two feet of snow now around the trailer. Can't wait for May to arrive to start camping again.

Man, usually anything I tow is just junk or for the house... (furniture etc). Haven't really towed any of the toys yet... no car trailer for the Corvette, it is stock so it's a driver anyway... though I do plan on taking it to the track and making an auto crosser out of it eventually.

 

Same with the bike... only time I have towed it is when there is too much snow on the ground or it needs a trip to the shop because it isn't running. Didn't think to take pics of that since it's embarrassing :lol:.

 

Nice looking toys everyone! Love the classic cars and big campers! And I agree that Camaro racing is a GREAT shot!

Found this thread while looking for input on brake controller. I tow my sled trailer but plan to upgrade it to a 14' enclosed over the summer with ebrakes. When I go it alone, I just put it in the pan. My sled sticks out a little .. but not a big deal.

 

Filthy after a 3 hour trip up north ...

Brake controller aught to be pretty simple on that rig. I just installed a Tekonshaw P3 on my 09 Suburban in about 10 minutes time while I was out in Wyoming. I do sell them if your interested. gobigparts.com

Not the best picture in the world, but here's the '09 a day after I bought it. I dragged the wheelers 3.5 hours north for a week of riding. I'm not sure that was part of the break in procedure, but oh well...

Not to long after I got my truck I we had a lot of rain and I was talking to a friend about how much fun driving thru the puddles was. He responded with how much he hated all the rain and asked if I'd help him get his truck to the shop cause if couldn't handle the puddles.

    • Still looks like a rivet to me in the pics, I don't see a nut and none of the pics show the head of the screw. But if you says so.....
    • Thanks for all the help so far!   I did try right from 2026 right down to 2021, and only from 2023 down lets me select the option for tire psi change, but I get the vehicle not supported error!   I'll definitely try it under Chevrolet after work today, and I'll get the sensor number from gm for my truck tire sensors. And I'll let you know if it works for me under Chevrolet!   And if that doesn't work, I'm going to guess that what @Atlas said about maybe I have a different body control module could be true!  
    • From where I'm sitting this sounds like a compatibility problem. I'm assuming the 2007 was a 900-series truck, and not an 800-series (they were sold side-by-side in dealerships that model year), since it starts and runs.   This is why I HATE post-2006 vehicles. Everything becomes a huge problem when you try to keep the thing running for longer than the manufacturer has designed it to.    I can't remember when Global-A architecture started - either '10 or '11. For your sake, you had better hope it's '11, or you're going to be spending some BIG money to correct this cluster-eff. That's something you need to find out before doing anything else. You may have several computers bricked ... but the fact that it runs tells me you MIGHT be ok here.     EDIT: Just did a quick refresher. You're screwed. This is Global-A. The 2 systems are NOT compatible in the slightest. Once you get the correct engine in there that IS compatible, you're going to need to see how many computers are locked. Absolute NIGHTMARE to straighten out, too. Your buddy might be better off cutting his losses and finding something else.   Welcome to post-2006 vehicle electronics. This is why I quit the industry, and drive nothing built after 1994. This stuff takes all the fun out of wrenching!

    • True, hard to say what differences there may or may not be between Chev and GM as well as a production year or mid year part change either.    I just found it odd that under the Sierra choice on the Autel that many of the last few years of production year did not include the choice of changing the tire pressure but if that is an Autel thing or a GM thing as to why the choices were not there. Knowing what tpms sensors are on the truck should give some guidance into which choices on the tool even make sense to try as I wouldn't give up just yet with the tool but I guess he will see what if anything he comes up with if he finds out a bit more info and tries a few more things on the Autel.
