Today I installed the driver side Go Rhino Dominator D4 step. I like the look of the bar very much. Although i do feel like it hangs a bit low and sticks out a bit too much. I'm also concerned with the weight limit...250 pounds? Thats mostly ok, but what about when BIG father in law (300 Pounds) hops in?

My second choice would be Nfab wheel to wheel polished with 2 steps.

Any thoughts and opinions on the way the Dominator D4 looks and/or the light weight limits?

I do have pics of the smittybilt version of the nfabs, not mounted, but positioned on jack stands that i can post if anyone would like to see.

TIA

I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

Too be honest, I haven't even looked into weight limit. MY best friend is 400 lbs. My 3" tube Westons on my old '98 and also his '06 Sierra held/hold his weight just fine and so far the N-fabs on my '14 have held up great with him and he usually gets in the truck at least once a week.

Slope was downhill, sits about .5" higher in the back, prefer a small amount of rake

Added Stubby antenna from AntennaX. There is a loss of signal quality while going under a bridge from one particular station in DFW but their antenna is pretty far away and no other stations mimic that effect.

 

Also took the chrome silverado & LT badges off the rear. Added Carbon Fiber vinyl to the bowties front and back. Think it goes excellent with the Tungsten.

Put the LED pods in. Haven't wired them yet, I'll do that this week.

Thanks, I'm hoping I don't have to worry about it. I actualy called Go Rhino today and they say not to worry...

Has anyone removed the black plastic bumper steps on the rear bumpers? I want to install some LEDs to light those areas up, but just from a quick glance, it didn't seem obvious on how to accomplish that.

 

More importantly, VLEDS did me right and sent me an all new HD Hanes, 2 new ballasts, and wiring to replace the one that I originally bought and was burning up at the connection! They were understanding, and apologized several times, even sent me the replacement gear via Priority mail! Finally had a chance this weekend to swap everything out. No more worries about my lights not working or burning up the truck!

Washed it…

Then took it to the beach…

 

Nice tire and rim setup...tell me more about them. Offset. Any rubbing or trimming? Do you think you could have gone a size larger in the KO2s?

There are 0mm offset, pro comp 6631's I believe. I did trim but that was for the -12mm rims I thought I was going to put on, these rims didn't need it… The BFG's are not on the truck right now, got a 1/2" bolt through one and didn't want to wait for the new tire to come in, so I put my 275/70/18" Duratracs back on for now. They are taller then the 285/65/18 BFG's and still don't rub… I've been mulling around the Idea of a 6.5" or 7" lift lately so I may be getting a different set of tires again… We'll see…

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      Spot on. The government makes ridiculous mandates, and this causes manufacturers to jump through hoops for every TENTH of a MPG. Main reason quality is in the toilet and prices are in the stratosphere.   The gov't tightened the MPG requirements so much 5 years ago that the only way manufacturers could meet these absolutely ridiculous numbers was to go all EV. Hence the push.     Nobody hates good MPG, Atlas - nobody is "whining". Your side has that trait all locked up. What a stupid argument attempt!   What I particularly hate is the government meddling in the free market system. Had this system been allowed to work as designed and intended by our Founders, cars and trucks would be hitting numbers that would blow our minds, all while costing 30% LESS. Not only that, but engines could probably hit 150k miles again without needing major internal surgery.   My forty year old Ford 302 has 312k on it. Wonder what changed?🤔

      Starting a new thread regarding mounting my 2014 OEM wheels to my 2026

      By revmanii · Posted

      The BORA 3/8" spacers arrived yesterday along with the extended lug nuts. I got the front wheels changed out today, but was overheated and covered in sweat so bad, I figured getting both front wheels done was a win, and took a cool shower. Hopefully, I'll go out tomorrow morning before it gets into the 80+ temps and do the backs. After getting the first wheel snugged up, I backed out one of the lug nuts then hand turned to count threads. I believe I stopped counting around 12-13, so I think I'm good there.

      My fullsize truck is averaging over 26mpg so I'm pretty happy with the increased fuel economy targets. When I had my gas Silverado (2020 5.3) it was averaging 21. Again, for a fullsize truck, that's very different from the 12-15 these things used to get 30 years ago.   Whine all you want, increased MPG is a good thing.

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

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That is a fair point, and I think an OBD-first proof is probably the right next step. I agree that the value is not the hardware box by itself. The marketable part would be the software: always-on capture, baseline learning, event reduction, system-specific reports, and alerts. Also agreed that if an OBD device is always plugged in and has local storage, it should not miss the event in the same way that a scanner plugged in after the fact would. The only thing I would not want to assume yet is that an ELM327-class device gives all the late-GM data needed at the rate needed. Standard OBD live data, DTCs, freeze frame, Mode 6, VIN, and calibration information are definitely the right starting point. GDS2 also proves that a lot of useful ECM data can be viewed through the DLC without needing a DTC first. The question I need to test is whether the data needed for a useful GM V8 event report is actually available through the DLC, and at a useful sample rate: - misfire counts / roughness by cylinder - AFM/DFM state - oil pressure and oil temperature - fuel trims - voltage / reset context - U-codes and communication events - calibration / software information - whether these are standard PIDs, enhanced DIDs, Mode 6 data, GDS2-only data, or not available So I think the right benchmark is: 1. Build the OBD-only version first. 2. Keep it plugged in and logging locally. 3. Compare it against GDS2 / freeze frame / HP Tuners or another higher-end logger. 4. Measure which parameters are available and at what update rate. 5. Only justify ECM-side hardware if it captures useful evidence the OBD version cannot. So you may be right: the consumer product might simply be an always-plugged-in OBD event recorder with much better reporting. A question for you: when you say ELM327 devices can already deliver all the data needed, do you mean generic OBD Mode 01 data only, or GM enhanced data as well? For a useful GM V8 report, would generic OBD data be enough, or would you expect the tool to include enhanced items like misfire by cylinder, AFM/DFM state, oil pressure/oil temp, U-codes, and calibration information?
