Would love to see more pictures. I got 5k miles on my tires and I'm already thinking what my next set will be lol

 

Here's a few more pictures of the truck

Here's my 2017 E-Assist CCSB. Just got the Method NV 17x8.5, 0 offset wrapped in 285/70/17 KO2s today. Truck is raised 1.5" with Fox 2.0 coilovers in the front and 2.0 in the rear, stock rear block. No rubbing at all. Getting full Xpel on the hood and full front fenders tomorrow. Borla goes back on next week.

 

I'll be swapping out all the gold bolts on the wheels for stainless. 96 is gonna be a pain. Then onto color matching the front end.

Raceline Assault 20x9's with a zero offset. wrapped with Nitto Ridge Grapplers 295/55/20. no rubbing.

Looks awesome! What's your setup?

Just got My 2016 Silverado back a few days ago. Has BDS 4 inch lift with fox shocks in the back. Has anyone taken these trucks off road yet with this lift?

Your's looks a little nose high. Is it the pic angle or did you do something different in the rear? What size tires?

Truck looks great. What mud flaps are those? I'm in the market for something similar to put on my Sierra. Any drilling?

Looks good, been thinking of swapping mine to stainless too. MRW said dollar a bolt too, little salty...

Already on the wait list at TireRack. Just waiting for them to come in now lol. Same price

Looks good. Looking to do same on my 17. Do you have a part number on the level kit you installed? Any issues with the lower control arms?

Thanks!!! Not that I have found so far. Only been a day. I opted for the CH-2LM from MotoFab over R.C., the R.C. parts looked like injection moulded plastic which made me uncomfortable. The MotoFab kits are billet aluminum and seemed a more sensible choice for placement in a suspension. Not knocking them (R.C.) or anything, and if they are steel that's fine, but they sure look like they had those lines all the way around like you see on moulded plastic parts.

 

Should also mention the directions stated to install the bolts 'head down', which to me means head at the bottom and threads pointed up. I couldn't get the nuts to fit, and after emailing the support team they sent me the below linked video and started to drop them in from the top. Once I did this, installation was a cinch. You'll need to raise the control arm and spindle up with a jack, and have a long prybar handy to hook in the spring and persuade the upper ball joint down into the spindle. Turn the nut on to the ball joint a turn or two, and torque down lower strut bolts, then the uppers. I used some blue Loctite on the nuts just to be sure they don't back off.

Post up after, yet to see NVs with stainless.

    • 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
