So I've posted here before and have done a few upgrades to the truck in the last few weeks.. Including bushwacker fender flares. I am looking for honest thoughts on the fender flare spikes.. I'm not sure if I like it and am considering changing it back to the bolts that originally came with it. All my friends have mixed reviews so I figured I'd post here and find out. I feel it's too much but that's just me.. Thanks for the help

 

Here is a list of what's currently done to the truck

 

Mcgaughy 7-9" lift SS kit with rear 1.5" add a leaf ( set to 9")

37" fuel mud grappler tires (37x13.50r24)

Fuel maverick 24x12 maverick 2 piece rims powder coated to match factory paint

54" curved light bar

Bushwacker painted fender flares

Tuscany hood scoop with factory paint

Monster 45,000lb Rocovery hook

Complete regear from stock 3.08 to 4.88 front to back with duragrip posi track

Window tint

Dual exhaust flowmaster

Solid fold 2.0 truck cover by extang

N fab chrome side steps

Black out grill

T-1000 Diablo tuner

How do you like those fuel tires? Are the loud like a typical MT or are they quiet? Wearing good? Thx. Great looking truck btw

Damn, I have never found a hood that made me think, I need it!. But this one looks slick. What do the slots on each side of the hood look like? Is there room or a way you can see where they could be painted black? I think that's what I'd do with mine if I get it, granted they can be done that way.

Dealer just called yesterday letting me know it had arrived and then later sent me this.... cant wait to go get it.

Hasn't been detailed yet pretty much fresh off the truck but still looking good.

Now to find some take off 20's from a GMC and it'll be looking even better.

 

 

Jealous. If only I could put those new lights onto my '15 I'd be happy. I love them more everything I see a new one in town. Congrats!.

Are those LTZ wheels plastidipped? Have more pics of your truck?

 

Hey man sorry just saw your reply. Yes I do I'll post some tonight and they are plasti dipped. Some people hate it but until I decide and pull the trigger on a set of wheels and tires I like for my truck, it does the job for me. Not a chrome fan and am also looking to get new grille inserts, they're dipped too... and everything on the front that's "chrome" wrapped to match the truck.

Here you go. These are from a couple weeks ago. I have gotten compliments on it, granted aftermarket is going to be 100% better but as I said, it does a great job until then or for anyone who likes the original look but wants to change the look of their truck very simply.

You mean the vent slots? I painted mines black, along with the front slot and the rear vent along the cowl

Thanks truck looks great! May try it on mine, but whole front end is chrome, mirrors, door handles, etc so may not look as good.

      Cam chain tensioner question

      By B14Sierra · Posted

      So I'm in the middle of a DOD AFM delete on my 6.2 L86 Sierra. I had a pick holding the tensioner but after I got the Cam phaser gear off I was cleaning off all the rtv and apparently I didn't have the pick seated far enough in. I bumped it and the tensioner sprang forward.  I think everything is good but I want a second opinion. The top of the tensioner is just a looped piece of plastic that rides in that channel right? There is no spring or anything is there? I got the gear and chain back on and it seems tight and everything looks right. I'm hoping nothing fell out.

      No low range 4 x 4

      By dna9656 · Posted

      My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions.

      summer road trips in the 2026 2500HD

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that.
