Will a cover from a 07 NBS short box extended cab with a box of 69.3 fit a current 2011 model. As far as i know the box on a crew cab is the same? Just looking for verification.

 

Thanks

The box on a 1500 Crew is shorter than the box on an extended cab.

True. Extended cab short box is around 6' and a crew cab short box is around 5'

in 2007 an extended cab short box was the same size bed as a crew cab short box. My question is has the box size changed on a crew cab? I don't believe it did but just want to make sure.

 

Extended cab short boxes aren't made anymore.

The short box on my dad's '11 crew is the exact same as the short box on my '08 crew. You should have no problems.

Extended cab/short bed boxes are approx 6', Crew Cabs are 5.5' approx. Has been this way since they started making 1500 Crew Cabs. You can order an extended cab with the 8' bed. So, a tonneau cover for a 1500 extended cab WILL NOT fit a 1500 Crew Cab and vice versa.

Not sure what you're comparing, 07 Crew bed to an '11 Crew bed? If so, then yes, beds are the same.

If you're comparing an extended cab bed to a crew bed, both on 1500's then no, they are not. The extended cab 1500's came with either a standard bed (78.7") or a long bed (97.8"). 1500 Crew cabs came with only the short bed (69.3"). You could get the standard bed on a 2500 Crew Cab, but the half tons just had the short box.

The extended cab did come in a short, standard, and long box. Extended cab with short box looks good, sport truck like.

Wow! You've got yourself what has to be a rare truck there! Was that a one year deal or very limited option? I'm pretty closely associated with a Chevy dealer and have never seen or heard of one of those. I also checked Chevy's website and that doesn't appear to be an option now, either. Makes me wonder more why they didn't also offer the standard bed on a crew cab. With the exception of the fact that my truck fits nicely in my garage, I HATE the shorty bed on my crew and miss the standard bed from my older extended cab.

      No 12v outlets in 2026 gmc Sierra

      By PhilB · Posted

      It is possible to add your own 12v outlet to your truck.  Check out this video:   I verified via GM Upfitters that pin 31 is the same on the 1500 trucks.  The wire is GM part number 84779405.   You can get the GM 12v outlet from Amazon  https://www.amazon.com/Genuine-Accessory-Receptacle-25774623-13549530/dp/B0F1H9YRGF EWAY 12 Volt Power Adapter for GM   https://www.amazon.com/EWAY-Chevrolet-Silverado-Cigarette-Ignition/dp/B0915RRW6Q/ref=sr_1_1?   I just haven't figured out a good place to put the 12v outlet in my truck.   Some people are getting USB-C to 12V adapters  https://www.amazon.com/WYMECT-Cigarette-Lighter-Socket-Adapter/dp/B0F87WNQKB/ref=sr_1_1_sspa? Not sure if they provide the correct amperage that a device like a tire inflator would need.

      Wiring Help, Please

      Thanks; I looked there a few minutes, and I think I can find something. I really never looked there, as I thought it was stuff like PTO/aftermarket bodies/accessories like snow plows.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By newdude · Posted

      This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By newdude · Posted

      2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
