Spent some time last night to look at all the wiring under my front seats. I found a couple under passenger side that have some real tight angle bends in them. I straightened them out the best I could and when I restarted the truck, the air bag light was out. The light hasn't come on yet today but that could all be coincidence...fingers crossed.

Outer tie rods found one with the boot torn and will not hold grease. Probably my front end pop I occasional get too

Oh that's right, I forgot you said you had a torn boot.

I got lucky, and managed to score this DL3 mirror to replace my broken one on the drivers side. Bought it from a guy on GMFS.

Oh and just gave the truck a bath. It was well overdue and I used the carwash on base. It was $7 but it makes the truck look pretty darn good for being touchless. It'll be dirty again by the weekend but at least it cuts down some of the built up crud on the underside.

cleaned the interior and went crazy with adhesive remover getting sap off, wiped down where i used adhesive remover, but no wash as it has been raining most of the day,

I cleaned up the interior 2 nights ago just to make it smell "clean" and remove the slight dust, my life wife in particular appreciates it!

 

And I had the chance to finally have some fun driving last night, it had been a while and I really enjoyed it. 3rd gear is so fun! And my set up with the 5.3, 3.73's, latitude tours and bilsteins is just soo good.

 

And with temps in the 80's the 5.3 really comes alive, especially with some humidity. The super dry hot air that we usually have takes its toll on hp.

Yippie, tomorrow will be FINALLY getting my tools out of storage.....and I've even been given some space to keep them out of the elements until I get my shed built. At long last...I have so many tools and haven't had access to most of them for a year due to limitations of living arrangements (long story, too boring to tell). I'm so excited, especially with the new neighbors looking for some extra handyman help...no pay but hey who cares I get to get dirty again working on stuff.

But can he dunk?

I raised mine up and can dunk 9ft. Need to go higher. Pretty good for 34 with a surgically repaired knee

Nice hoop!

Oh, and by the way it's not my hoop. Those are his pictures in his for sale thread. [emoji6]

I put new Cooper Zeon LTZ tires on today. 275/60/20

 

This is a really bad picture but just finished installing them and the garage is 10 degrees cooler and less humid than outside so garage door stays shut.

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

      By newdude · Posted

      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.

      Active Grille Delete

      By jaszr2 · Posted

      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?

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By PBNB · Posted

      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
