Couple recent pictures of mine, pulled the lower valence/air dam off.. not so sure I like it. Looks like something's "missing" to me on the front end now. I think I'm going to trim the air dam down and re-install it.

So i put my RC 2" level kit and Toyo 295/55/20's on this weekend. Install was simple, just like on my 2011. It definitely helps to have an extra set of hands when wedging that spacer in there. 295/

Thanks. Here is one more from yesterday. Considering we're getting 8-10 inches of rain the next two days, I won't be taking any better pics soon.

I have had my RC 2.5" level on now for 8,000 miles and have had no issues. I love the way my truck sits. And it was extremely easy to install.

I haven't. Nor have I heard of anyone needing to get that done. Only time that I have heard of Stabilitrak becoming funny is with the Zone 6.5" lift.

I have that lift. Can you elaborate on what issues were caused?

I think if you didnt have the Flaps it would look better but adding the trim will balance it back out.

Not everyone has experienced them. I just know sometimes stabilitrac will act up when turning sometimes. But it's not often that it will occur. Just at times.

I guess I still don't know what you mean by "act up".

Thanks for the link. I've had my lift on for 20k miles and have never seen my stabili-track come on, around turns or otherwise. Just lucky I guess.

 

Then I wouldn't read that link! It may start happening now that you know about it. If it does, then I didn't tell you about it lol

Lol. I've had my tires rotated a couple times and it hasn't done it so hopefully it won't start from just reading a thread.

 

Sometimes tho, when I'm turning really sharp it kinda acts like the locking rear diff is activated, but not always. There's never been any blinking light on my dash indicating stabilitrack or traction control being activated tho. I just assumed it was because my 35" tires were so big. That part doesn't bother me.

Yeah I like the look better without flaps, but our road conditions and weather make them a must have. Without them you'll chip the paint in no time and good luck trying to keep your truck clean. I also wanted to pull the step bars off but am thinking that'll draw even more attention to the flaps.

I have an AT with my Air dam taken off, factory Molded flaps, and my step bars taken off. I've got a pic in the 2014 Pics thread to give you an idea. Its also my Avatar pic

I've spent the last month looking at this forum and everything else online so I could to try to get the best information on what to do to my 2014 Silverado to level it. After all the research I went with the Bilstein adjustables and Hankook Dynapro 275/70/18. This is my first post so I'll do my best on the before and after pics. The ride is great and better than factory. It's winter and truck is dirty but I couldn't be happier with this set up.

      Factory front brake rotors...defect?

      By Chris80s · Posted

      On my wife's 2020 Blazer (~69000 miles), we started to notice the brakes pulsating at faster speeds. Typically around town you don't notice anything, but highway/interstate driving you will notice it. I decided to pull of the front tires and look at the brakes. I figured with the milage, the pads should be wearing out to their life span, but they actually looked decent. Still with "meat" on them. One pad has a ridge wearing in it, and that same rotor is showing the ridge too. That's not the concerning part...the other rotor appears to have a raised bump on it!  The picture make it look like a pimple! Very odd and strange! NOTE: These are the factory brakes and rotors.   I'm attaching pictures of the front brakes and what they look like ate ~69000 miles.

      Remote Start Noise 2024 2500 HD Gas

      By BCGM · Posted

      2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD Custom 6.6 Gas Canadian built Truck  I tried to search for my previous thread on this topic but cant find it so my apoligies  for starting another one    #1   Since we have owned our truck purchased new it has this strange noise after using the remote start function  you press the remote start and you hear it start but right at the end of it starting it almost seems like it wants to start again after the truck is running .   There is no gap in time it is right at the end of the start . Almost sounds like when you have started a car/truck and its running and then you try and start it again and you get that grinding noise ,sort of     #2  You can only hear this if you are standing outside of the truck and near the truck  you cant hear it when you start the truck from inside  the cab . So it may very well be happening when starting the truck that way as in normally    #3   This only happens when it is started after sitting . For how long I don't know but it happens after sitting overnight for sure and it wont do it if you stop the engine after starting and then start it again  I have had it in to the Dealership before concerning this but they did not have the truck  when it was cold to hear it . Now its back in the Dealership left it overnight so they could possibly hear the problem . They said they tried and nothing happened . Well they did not know what they were listening for . I started the truck remotely and BINGO it makes the noise . Oh that sounds weird they say . We need to look into it ! I have left for this week at the Dealership    Does your 2024 2500 HD gas do this ?  Any of you fellas care to take the time and trouble to film this operation from a cold start  so I can hear what your sound like  Really  would like to know if this is anormal sound  Thank You Fellas !!

      2026 Z71 Forward and Rear Park Assist help

      By Slow · Posted

      2026 Z71.  The other day I was backing a trailer into the barn.  The alarm was going off just because the trailer was in the field of the warning sensors when you get too close to something.  For some reason now the warning alarm doesn't work anymore.  It used to go off when I was just normally backing my truck into garage.  I still have the guidelines in the back up camera.  Is there a button or something to push to turn the sound/Alarm on and off?  I have the touch screen in this truck.  There isn't a "P" on the dash except for the parking brake.  I can't find anything in the touch screen under settings or vehicle.  Thank you in advance.

      Post Pics of your "Other" Rides

      By KARNUT · Posted

      Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.
