Nice truck!

Just one thing though.....Since you added the GM seat covers in the front,you may want to remove them,they are actually not made for the 2010 1/2-tons as they have side seat mounted air bags,if they deploy with the seat covers on there....Not good,not good at all!

I strongly recommend removing them from a safety standpoint.

lol ya dealer told me all about it one of the techs at the dealer told me that the air bag just wont go anywhere. if its just not going to deploy im not worried but the tech told me it was ok. i know its not really the smart thing to do but im probly going to leave them on. younge and stupid :dunno:

No problem,I didn't know if you knew about it or not,But trust me....when an air bag deploys it deploys with force,Its going to go somewhere!

Yeah,Lets hope you never have to find out at all :dunno:

The other day I saw some seat covers that were made to work with side air bags. The cover is stitched together with very weak thread on that side, so when the bag deploys, it simply rips the cover apart.

I would leave the seat covers. The only way to save our social security system is if we weed out more people before time to collect.

i dont think u want me gone. more than likely ill be paying for your SS

 

This is true! :dunno:

young and stupid :D

 

Been there and done that. But i don't think I would purposefully disable a life-saving device that is specifically designed to protect my head. I'd prefer to have my grape intact that keep my seats clean and/or looking good. Though I do ride my Kawi BF750 without a helmet, so maybe I'm not the best for giving you a hard time about it. :nonod:

 

Congrats on the truck too! :dunno:

I use the gm seat covers on my 2010 also. I only use the headrest and seat portion not the seat backs. I am only really concerned with the seat portion anyways especially sitting down after playing sports, working at the lake, etc.

Do you have the rear seat covers? If I am to keep my truck when the lease is up in October I'd like to get a rear seat cover that is actually made for my truck. Not really interested in the front, as the dog sits in the back with his muddy paws.

    • Fred was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young pullets, and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was replaced. This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing. Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the bells. Fred's favourite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but this morning he noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all! When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. To Fred's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one. Fred was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the City Show and he became an overnight sensation among the judges. The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize," but they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well. Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making. Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the unsuspecting populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention. Vote carefully in the next election, you can't always hear the bells.
    • Can someone confirm if the GM order workbench terminal is able to validate a custom build sequence:   1) Initialize the Allocation Base: Open a new vehicle build queue, select the 2026 Chevrolet Suburban 4WD, and pick the High Country (3LZ Preferred Equipment Group).   2) Select the Diesel Powertrain: Go directly to the engine configuration screen and choose RPO code LZ0 (3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel). Ensure it maps to the MHS 10-speed automatic transmission.   3) Deploy the Seating Swap: Navigate to the Interior Options screen and enter RPO code ATT to replace the standard captain's chairs with the power-release 60/40 bench seat. Because you are not trying to force a separate luxury or air-suspension bundle, the standard, premium D07 Fixed Floor Console remains active. The system will accept this change immediately without triggering a warning message.   3)Apply Heavy-Duty Hauling Capability: Input RPO code NHT (Max Trailering Package). The commercial terminal will automatically bundle the required trailering hardware and software modules to support the diesel engine's maximum towing capacity.   5) Layer the Premium Tech and Glass: Separately add code C3U (Panoramic Power Sunroof) and code UKL (Super Cruise) to the order screen.   6) Run the Final Validation: Click the "Validate Order" button at the bottom of the interface.
    • Spent the last hour or 2 googling and reading up on the spacer thing. I don't like the loss of thread contact on the slip on spacers, but it appears you can get "extended" lug nuts that reach into the hole of the wheel to get back the lost threads. Looks like the only true hubcentric slip on spacers are at least .375". I'd want as little as I could get away with and don't want to cause other clearance issues going any thicker. Bora seems to offer what appears to be a well made .375" spacer and extended lug nuts. I searched here and did find a couple threads recommending Bora. But not cheap. By the time I buy spacers and lugs, new TPMS sensors, then pay a tire shop to install the new sensors, I suspect I'm going to be in over $400. Thinking about running out and getting some washers to put behind the wheel to see if .375" is enough to clear calipers, turn lock to lock without rubbing, and to see if the wheels/tires look strange pushed out a little. This would just be to check fitment.
    • Roadmaster makes some quality parts; I have their sway bar. I considered the RAS, but I ended up bagging. I didn't know what kind of ride I'd get with RAS, and the bags have interior jounce bumpers, so I can run 0 pounds pressure. I figured I'd have the best of normal suspension ride with assist on-demand. But it seems you got pretty much the same in one item.
