Can anyone tell me if this is what I need to switch out my stock mirrors for towing mirrors? Per my build sheet it says my mirrors are

DL3: Power heated outside mirrors w/dr auto dimming, turn signal, curb tilt

 

If this isn't the ticket, does anybody have a link as to where i can buy OEM style without costing me $1100 for them to be put on at the dealer?

If you have the DL3 the towing mirrors are bolt on and plug and play. I had DL3 and just put on OEM GM Tow Mirrors with turn signals. I got them for 340 shipped of GMParts Direct. I wouldnt waste the time to save the 40 bucks. Aftermarkets have all kinds of shaking issues. Buy OEM and save the headache.

DL3 mirrors require a different tow mirror as I understand it. You may also have to replace a module in the door, and have the BCM (I think) reprogrammed. Silverado Z71 had according to his for sale ad the DL8 mirrors, not the DL3's, so I think he had them mixed up as to which was which.

 

Try contacting MS3Dale and ask him as he may have a little more knowldge on this!

 

Good luck!

      How to Tune 6L80 Silverado transmission

      By ballencd · Posted

      New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.

      Sounds like a smart reasonable person with common sense. Bill O’Riley never said he was just a journalist, by the way.

Video Platforms: She has contributed to PragerU, where she has hosted videos critiquing government mandates on vehicles. [1, 2, 3] Core Positions Anti-EV Mandates & Fuel Policies: Fix regularly critiques government subsidies and mandates for electric vehicles (EVs), framing them as impractical and burdensome to the average consumer. She advocates for consumer choice and supports traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. [1, 2, 3] Economic Analysis: Her commentary often emphasizes the impacts of fuel prices, inflation, and federal regulations on drivers. [1, 2, 3] Political Alignment: On her public channels, she actively supports deregulation, "drill baby drill" energy policies, and the removal of government restrictions on auto sales and manufacturing.

      Wouldn't swapping out the original AFM/DFM parts for a complete Delete Kit be the best route to go if one could afford to go that route?

      It comes with directions but yes, generally, it's the same.  Also, get you the dipstick stuff to install dipstick so you have one.
