Ryan is your truck leveled or stock? I figure I'll be getting tires soon enough (almost at 34K!) and I'd like to take it up a notch. Get pics.

 

 

2" RC Level Kit

 

The 275's are 33.2" tall :)

 

 

 

Maybe we're thinking of different 275s then- I might do 275/65/18. These will fit stock and be just a bit bigger. Most likely the General AT2s like I had on the Taco but I also really like the new BFG Ruggen Terrain. The photos don't do justice to how aggressive the tire actually is.

 

 

thats the size I went with. Very happy so far with the G/AT2's

pretty much ruined my truck tonight... scratched the hell out of it two tracking and almost hit a tree.. i was drunk and now im pissed.. alot of buffing to do.. :(

I rented a car to replace the try k today since it will be going to the dealer for blend door actuators. I requested a Chevy. I liked the USAA discount. $200 for a week with the top insurance they offer for an impala.

If you're drunk, stick to a golf cart. Or better yet a lawn chair.

 

 

*golf clap* Drinking and driving is just dumb.

Got a 3/4 horse 5 speed fan & motor from a used furnace. Gonna build me a nice plywood box to put it in and wire it up. Will make one nice fan for the shop.

Can't sleep so probably at day real ill go get tires pulled off of the 05 Silvy wheels I bought yesterday so they are easier to ship to my friend

Good call

 

 

yep yep i found some chrysler plugs at work in some totes i was looking around for loose parts that came back so i could plug the holes in the bumper, worked out pretty well lol.. god bless plastic factories

Got the call from the dealer, both air temp actuators were bad so $1350 but on top of that another $340 because the control head is bad too

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
