Yeah, I may try the terra grapplers next but the trail grapplers get great mileage. A buddy of mine has gotten 80k out of three sets. Rotation every 3000 and a few alignments. Luckily the tire and rim shop in my area does the rotation for free for the life of the tires. And that voodoo magic works! Hard to go in there for a rotation without asking for a lift quote while you wait!!!!

 

So I'll see what I get out of them.

I hear the Terra's only get about 50k, but I don't know if that's with a mud tire rotation schedule or not.

 

But I agree with you, they do look tough as hell! Also hard to get the thing stuck anymore.

I ran the stockers down to the nub and I had to put it in 4 to get up my steep driveway if the pavement was wet, these things roll right up in the snow!

I know multiple people including my step dad driving an HD who got over 80k on Terra grapplers. If you only get 50k that's operator error

Installed my speakers a few days ago 8a961ada7af8497dd6797fef4894bd5e.jpg

I used a the kicker speakers, not the cheap 60 buck ones, I used the next ones up that are like 130 each. Tried the cheaper ones and they sounded like garbage.

The box was a steal at like 120. I used the kicker 1200 watt for the dual 12 in subs and some other kicker amp for the fronts and rears. I left the dash speakers stock, I think that sound ok as is.

The wiring is a hot mess but you can't see any of it behind the seat anyway.

Removing the rear seat was somewhat of a pain and I made a scratch on the door jam. Should have had someone to help me.

But installing the amps behind the seat was obviously not the best place to put them. I have the gain way to high in the rear and now I can't fix it without removing the stupid seat again. So I adjusted the fade on the radio to the front speakers but a strange side effect is that the door ding noise from having the door open or not having your seatbelt on is loud as hell!

Sorry for the terrible pics, it's getting dark.

It will shake the bolts loose if you turn it up. But I rarely have it very loud.

Do the seat mod! I installed a 2000 watt sundown amp on the back wall.

Did you do the rears as well, or is it even possible? I sent you a PM.

    • Yeah I don’t leave ANYTHING just sitting supposedly maintaining my battery on a vehicle or RV for multiday periods. I connect a charger as needed to provide a full charge, then disconnect it and either monitor the battery or follow a set schedule for periodic charging. 
    • Get the 5.3. I`m not a Ford guy.😉   I think these L84`s are less problematic than the L83`s. Certainly less than the L87.
    • I have finally paid off my mortgage and can now purchase a new truck. I would greatly appreciate any opinions on the purchase of a new 2026 GMC Denali 5.3L or 6.2L with the Denali reserve package. I am not interested in the 3.0L.  Or should I go buy a Ford?   Thank, John
    • One of the few things I enjoyed about my time in the midwest was taking off on weekend drives. Unlike home, where we are boxed in by mountains and water, those rules don't apply to the inland plains. Roads connect and sprawl everywhere. While Minnesota is flat, it's not completely featureless and there are fast moving rural roads with curves and slight elevation changes. I used to relish heading out in a particular direction with no set destination, no curfew, and weaving through little townships, wherever the roads would take me. Along farms, lakes, or through the deciduous trees... It was beautiful in its own way, and the seasons were so distinct there. Fall drives yielded amazing shows of color and contrast. Summer drives rewarded with the and amber evening glow of the prairie (and lots of juicy bugs).    I do a lot of that here in my home state too. But it's much less mysterious/intriguing. I've traveled most roads in the region, and every road that's fun to drive within a good radius of my house. But every drive, even on the same old roads, is still enjoyable. I know where I can lean hard into the throttle or really throw the car into a curve. There are exercise loops for when I just need to keep certain cars limber, and much longer routes to settle in and enjoy a drive and put some miles on. All the mountains and water make for some really awesome roads for spirited driving. But not all my driving is spirited, for example, that's not really enjoyable in my pickup or this Blazer (that's still here...).   Sometimes a good drive is followed by a ritualistic wash before tucking the car away...
    • 'GMAuthority' is reporting the 2027 HD's will have the L8S 6.6L gasoline V-8.  There was some talk here about the L8S awhile back.  Not sure what changes it will have now as it seems the 2027 emissions regulations have changed from what was originally proposed.  The big question will be is L8S just a stopgap for the last 2 years of the current T1 HD platform or will it carry forward to the next generation 2029 T1-2 HD's?    I assume the L8S will still be a Gen. V engine.
