My other truck…

20150107_170601_zpsc0607b54.jpgIt looks rough, but it's very solid. It's a 1991 C2500, no rust but needs paint… Plan on lowering it and swapping out the old 305 for something with more balls…

Westin Grille Guard (It's a heavy bitch!) High Flow air filter, chrome mirrors, door and tailgate handles, Weathertech floor mats. High intensity LEDS on the grille guard are next.

Went on an overnight camping trip in single digit weather with some buddies of mine. It was pretty cool considering we had each type of domestic truck (Ford, GM, Dodge). Took a couple pics

I made an earleir post with a photoshop concept of this build. Both are factory colors, Iridium (aka Tungston Metallic) on Victory Red. The lower 1/3 is entirely bed liner (Scorpion) color matched and metallic flake added .

Added the GMC Z71 fender badge and auto-fold tow mirrors and leveled it so far. Still to come (back-ordered) are DeeZee full length over the wheel well tool boxes, DeeZee black aluminium, louvered headache rack and I have just recieved the leather upholstery and am about to put in.

In the sun it looks black.

I’m already considering selling and starting over with my first instinctive color combination White on Red. If I keep it, rims and tires will be added.

I think the white and red in sort of the late 70's early 80's 2 tone design would look awesome.

Truck looks sharp, my next one might be black.

Haha thanks. It looks like you are pretty meticulous with your stuff as well but be ready to want to clean it constantly.

Your truck looks sharp! Have you thought about doing a slight tint on the headlights and taillights, just to help blend with the black? If anything, just to soften the contrast.

Thanks. I almost painted the inside of my headlights when I cleared them, but preferred the look they have now. And smoked tails just aren't my thing. The diminished light output and work just isn't worth it to me, but it can look nice.

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.

      cam upgrade in CA

      By davester · Posted

      apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.

      Possible lifter tick after DOD delete

      By davester · Posted

      yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
