I went to Costco and had the tires rotated while I was there. I'm rotating every 4-5k miles.

I also ran her through the car wash and vacuumed her out. She was filthy after last week's rain.

Got new plugs & wires. The old ones were completely toast. They were Autolites & were gapped WAY off. Then half the wires weren't even making good connection to the plugs. The wires ripped apart as I was taking them off & were also corroded badly. All new AC Delco parts & now she's running real good. Also dropped a can of Engine Restore in the crankcase. Already seeing benefits of my labors.

Mine is a 5.3 and I'm digging it I can only imagine how good a 6.2 would sound.

pretty sure the sound would be similar, just waiting to find out for sure, and the changes (if any) in power/mileage. The more mods i do to this truck, the more i love it. Think my girl is getting jealous...lol

My gas mileage went down for now because I'm constantly getting on it to hear it. Lol I'm loving mine and I feel us on the mods I should be getting my lift and steps this week or next week I'm as excited as a little kid at Christmas.

Nice, what lift?

It's from maxx-lift.com the guy lives in town and it's the same lift as zone off-road someone in another thread on here said that kit was made by bds kinda like a lower brand sort of like snap on and blue point and things like that. I'm gonna see how he will charge to put it on and if it's to much I'll put it on myself.

Took my 02 out for most of the day yesterday. Ran her down the highway and I don't remember having all those vibrations coming from it. Around 85 the truck felt like it was gonna come apart. Something must be out of balance, I hope lol

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I have never seen GM instructions for the other trucks as per the HD with the 6 speed or the half tons but had got the impression that the HD trucks with the 6 speed were not having the same problem that the 10 speed and pan presented. Also video that I have seen of the HD 10 speed with the gas engine starting in 2024 model year showed that it was a real struggle to even make it work when pulling down hard on the exhaust after undoing the exhaust hanger bracket on the side of the transmission as after all there is little room for the pipe to even go down behind the Y joint as it soon would hit a frame cross member. Also that they had tried just like I did with the gasket off and no way was that pan coming out any way they tried to manipulate the pan. From that as well as the local transmission shop talking about the pain in the rear issue, I was not expecting my pan to come out because GM shows it was not even intended to come out without dealing with the exhaust piping.    It would be nice to claim, here's what you do and its easy to remove the pan guaranteed on any HD truck with the gas 10 speed but dollars to donuts the next guy trying what I did would not have the same luck as the exhaust was just manufactured slightly different and be pissed off at my claim that the pan comes out with no issue. Its more of a try and see if your particular truck might work like mine did .... or not !.

      Sorry I didn't see this until now, but it works on both the 6 speed and 10 speeds, as well as all the half tons too.

      Engine vibration after motor mount replacement.

      By 1998sleaze · Posted

      Hello, I have a 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 that I recently changed both motor mounts on due to the driver's side being blown out. After replacement I seem to have a steady vibration that I can feel in the pedals and the back of the seat. At this point I'm convinced that the aftermarket "Anchor" branded mounts I used are not performing as well as OE, the only real reason I ended up using the mounts in question was because my local dealers were out a few months to get a Driver's side mount. I've tried "Neutralizing" the mounts according to the motor mount TSB published for these truck to no avail. My trans mount is also in great shape and seems to be absorbing vibrations swimmingly. As far as I can tell there is no issues idling, my idle RPM is steady and I've recently put GM plugs and wires on, however, I have not cleaned the throttle body or intake valves. Any one else have a similar experience with aftermarket mounts? Patience certainly is a virtue that I wish I exercised here. Thank you!

      I still saw people out for runs, on their bikes/motorcylces, jeeps with the doors off driving around here the past 2 days. I guess we are just used to it here haha.   Tasted like a bonfire the last 2 days.

      6.2L (L9H) Owners - Get all your questions answered here

      By CamGTP · Posted

      The TCM has to be flashed before it can drive.   If you installed it the way it is, it has the OS (operating system/program) from the 2010 truck you got it from. That will not match with the VIN/OS pair that your 2013 truck has.   You can do the full install. Then tow it to a dealership and they can flash the trucks PCM/TCM with the latest program for your VIN.
