Dang that is some serious Orange Peel on that tailgate! Looks like you did a better job painting the handle than they did the whole tailgate.

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.

The grille was a pain to separate. Headlight trim was easier. Lol. There are about 20 or so clips on the back of the grille and they're a little tricky to get out. Just need 2 screwdrivers to pry with.

What is needed to take apart headlight trim and do the tabs break easily?

Took the side steps off. Was going to wait until I bought the Amp steps, but the lines really are cleaner without the stock ones.

OMG! Someone stole more parts off my truck! Finally after dragging my feet for a couple weeks and waiting on the shop. She's getting her beauty make up this week while I'm on my bachelor party vacation.

Oh I was just kidding! I spent about 20 minutes removing 80 little bolts. It'll be even more fun putting them all back in. I'll have to be very gentle so I don't mess up the paint.

When you get the replacement bolts use RED loctite or other brand thread locker.

If you notice I made sure you saw to get red. Blue is to stop fasteners from walking out, but you're still able to break the blue thread locker if you need too which it most. With red they would probably need an impact driver to get the bolts out.

 

It's just sad that they'd steal those little cheap bolts. Honestly if you're going to take the time to do it then steal the actual rims lol. But, it makes me think of a piece that I think someone could have stolen off my truck. If you look at the windshield wiper arms, the little cover that covers the mounting but to mount the arm to the shaft was missing on one of them. I don't remember it flying off because it's a big enough piece where I would have seen it. So either someone stole it or it was missing from the truck for God knows how long. Luckily it was just a $5 cover and snapped right on.

      So you're saying toss the baby out with the bathwater? @txab posted article was her take on how AI can be used to manipulate pricing as it already does and has been rebuked by the judiciasry in housing. How AI can be and is used to maximize refinery or even Amazon operations all of which are true but because she is who she is; that makes what she says about what is true, false? Is that something akin to Pre-justice aka prejudice?    Look, I'm first in line to approach all information with caution just because we live in a world where people like to lie about someone or something with such a straight face and in such volume that it makes digging to the truth wearisome. Meaning I understand the skepticisms but if I were to toss out everything a person is for a view they hold then my pool of people to draw wisdom from would be non-existent and I'd be forced to reinvent the wheel daily. Not practical.    "Be innocent as a dove but as cautious as a serpent."    Test each word. Every good lie is part truth or no one would believe it. Find the truth in it and reject what isn't.    On this one, AI is being used to do what has been done by hand for hundreds of years already but at such speed, the point of a computer, that it is more easily monetized. This one wasn't that hard a lift.    I wrote a few formulas in a Lotus 123 program decades ago, a series of linked Macros actually, that allowed a daily inventory to be turned into a running P&L and production plan. Something that took three departments a week to assemble now took the time it takes to input the 'daily changes' in inventory. Later that was ungraded to the more powerful Excel program an and integrated with bar code scanning, inventory to supply was done once per shift. It had a huge impact on production scheduling, Seamless interruption flexibility, inventory error reduction, raw materials cost effective utilization and scrap reduction. Huge improvement in the bottom line. I spent months on that and AI could have done it in minutes. So yes, it not only can be used, they would be foolish to not try. The legality, ethics and morality are not the domain of AI. Humans need to keep a reign on it.

      How to Tune 6L80 Silverado transmission

      By ballencd · Posted

      New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.

      Sounds like a smart reasonable person with common sense. Bill O’Riley never said he was just a journalist, by the way.
