Has anyone installed the newer OSRAM type LED light bar vs CREE?

 

I've been looking at this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZF34KZ8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_R-vdybZS3QW4V

I actually just installed a Black Oak LED 30" single row light bar behind the grill. I chose the 5w osram option which is in between the 3w osram and 10w cree. The light bar is out of control bright. It's a combo light and the spot beam in the middle has a huge throw! That light will definitely reach out and touch someone. lol. The quality of black oak is second to none and I believe they still are offering 15% off on their sight. The osram leds are no joke. They're stupid bright273236c6b871cce0da08d8560c0cfb51.jpgb8eaf729d9bc3bf531caecba28f071b9.jpg

A double row works well behind the Denali grill. Here's my 30" curved Totron:                 The LED's are 1" appart and the rows of holes in the grill just happen to be 1" ap

The correct term is "illegal commodities broker" thank you!   I actually work for an oil company, which is similar because both businesses provide highly desired products at artificially inflated

I have a '17 LTZ and bought the rcx 30" curved for behind the grille but my truck apparently has the electronic flaps/louvers and the bar will not fit. Has anyone found a way to make the bar or a similar bar fit?

I also have a 17 and was wondering if the rcx kit would fit with those flaps behind the grille. I didn't even know my truck had those flaps when I got it. Hopefully you come up with some why around them.

What are the dimensions of the light bar as far as depth? I know there's a little room. I just don't know if a different light bar might fit.

I checked, there's literally no room. A few pieces of paper would be tight lol.

I believe the 17 GMCs have them also, ford started in 15. I don't like the bar hanging down under the bumper like that lol

      6 Speed vs 8 Speed

      By swathdiver · Posted

      Heat is what kills them, the redesigned cooling system and that full temperature thermostat on the side of the transmission doomed them from day 1.  The heat eventually causes the clutch material on the plate to flex which then breaks up and runs throughout the transmission.     The GMT900s when serviced regularly, often run into the 200K mile range or more.  One 6L90 in an HD3500, pulled into the shop on its own power for overhaul at 320K miles at Precision Transmission a few years ago.

      Nice! And thanks for the assurance I'm helping Pepper and not hurting her. 😉

      6 Speed vs 8 Speed

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I started doing this late last year as a habit and situationally for much much longer. Coincidently I've found 1500 rpm to be my trigger point as well.    It's the same sensation as a manual held in high gear at low speeds. You can feel it tearing itself apart. Don't let it!    I'll add this tidbit. When on a longer run at 50-55 mph and in M5 once up to speed I tap the tow button which will hold it in 5th gear and then ask for M6 to activate the AFM. When I have to slow to a speed that will downshift I go back to M5 then tap out of tow. Smooth as butter. I still use D for Interstate work above 54 mph. If I forget, it will remind me. LOL.

      Gas Prices

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Thank you Phil 😉    https://uscommodityprice.com/difference-between-spot-price-futures-price/   Read the entire article but pay attention to the paragraph on 'Convergence at Expiration" and how the futures telegraphs the spot price. At delivery they are the same. Pump price responds directionally to the futures price. No they are not the same but at delivery they are indistinguishable. Good thing to or you'd be paying a thousand dollars a gallon for the stuff.      There is an definitive answer with an absolute and assured result. However that answer cannot be discussed on this site.    But I can say this. It is beyond the ability of any human or any group of humans no matter how well meaning. We have had thousands of years to prove we could and the results are dismal. Until then we have this:         And there it is.

      2021 with Intermittent AC Cooling Issues

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I had a strange problem with my Avalanche. Yearly once the temperature started getting hot. It would freeze me out going to my walking trail about 8 miles. Nothing but hot air going home. My machanic would put the Freon in the machine vacuum the system. No leaks put the Freon back, good for the year. My brothers truck wouldn’t work at all until he did the same procedure. I believe he finally changed the expansion valve to solve his problem.
