Added the frameless auto dimming mirror last week. Installed Denali LED tail lights and Fox 2.0 rear shocks today. Fronts should be here next week. 5ebd9db0f02fb5b424ca0aee8ea0aafd.jpg87d7d6b3f0e332a3a094815b5220c084.jpg8c171c60564add08981495977a8e8dbc.jpg

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.

Found an hour of free time yesterday and installed GM - Illuminated Door Sills. Love the way they look! Of course, made a how to video. The box didn't come with instructions and tried searching he

Does it ride nice with those shocks? Be interested to hear feedback when you get the front coilovers installed too

Haven't actually driven it yet. I will let you know how it rides once the fronts are on.

Thinking about swapping out the Bilstein 5100's with the Fox 2.0's on all corners

In my opinion man, the fox 2.0 rears are better than the factory ranchos but I personally feel they're too stiff. The front of my truck is nice and plush with the 2.5 coilovers and the rear is rigid. I'm probably gonna be buying 2.5 rears in the next month or two so if you want I'll let you know when I do and if you want my rear 2.0's I'll sell em to ya on the cheap

Thanks pgamboa for the info. I have functional puddle lamps on my '14 that come on with the dome lights now. It should be like this from the factory.

I'd definitely be interested to know aswell how the rear sort's out with the 2.5's. I'm looking to replace my Rancho's with Fox all the way around since they are garbage but really don't want a stiff ride.

Thanks for the verification! I have several other 2014 members wanting to achieve functional Puddle Lamps with this diode mod. I have no idea why the BCM only pushes 2.8 Volts to the Puddle Lamp Circuit.

I don't know much about Fox, but I have the Bilstein's and my truck rides like a Cadillac compared to the stock ranchos...I have a level so obviously I feel the smaller bumps and what not, but when I hit the bigger bumps the 5100's don't bottom out, night and day difference....

Tried to swap out my emblems for OEM Black, but the set I ordered from ebay didn't fit. The seller listed that they fit 16-17 models, but apparently they are a bit different as the emblem I received did not line up and was a touch bigger (GM PN 23303572). Since I already had my stock gold emblem off of the truck I figured I'd go ahead and cover it with the carbon fiber vinyl overlay I ordered via this site a few weeks ago. The fit isn't perfect, but I'd chalk it up to user error.

Stuck my head up underneath the dash to check for flex on the accelerator pedal mount. All I can say is what a crappy design ! Mounting a moving assembly that requires pressure to function on a piece of unsupported plastic ?

 

I have an idea for a cheap permanent solution, but put the forum standard wooden shim in place for now.

Were the steel bushings on your 2.0's centered? Mine were not and I couldn't move them so I installed them as was. Just curious. I installed my 2.0 coil-overs this morning before the superbowl and will say you may need a extra person to help slide the bottom of the coil-over on top of the lower control arm. I also changed my sway bar end links with moog since I had to remove them.

      Of course refrain from political debate but I myself have very dismal hope for what is all going on up here every where we turn so I nodded my head when I saw this joke.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.
