looks good. How do you like them ? You think they will work GM mug flaps ?

I kinda love them! I have muscular dystrophy so it's a big help to get in. As far as flaps, where do they mount I can check clearance for you

That's puzzling. Did you contact fox?

How much did the set up cost you besides tires and wheels? Thinking about doing a 6" BDS but not sure if the extra ~$1400 is worth it for the Fox coilovers. Truck is mostly a street truck anyways

Got the 2.0s installed on all 4 corners finally. I would definitely suggest these as everyone says. Tighter turns, planted, takes bumps with ease, performs great off road when needed. Best under $1k suspension mod I've ever gotten.

My boy from high school owns the company so I don't pay full price. I'll ballpark ~$200-250 for all them. His IG name is Maine Coast Customs and same for website. His name is Jeff...Tell him Gary sent you.

Those trim look really nice! Is that ballpark price for all the trim including the dash trim you did? And just to be sure, that's the ballpark we would pay since we don't know him.. :D I've seen some of his work in IG.. Nice stuff..

That's a good looking truck! I love the stance, which level did you use?

Thanks! All I know is that it was an eBay type leveling lift. Not exactly sure the brand. It was pretty much a spur of the moment thing one day. A buddy of mine got tired of seeing my truck looking so stock and had a friend drop off the kit, so I said what the hell? Let's do it! Lol

Get yourself the roost shields from fox for those rear shocks. For 30 bucks you'll help keep your piston free of rock chips and prolong the life of the shock.

We were debating waiting on installing the rears because we didn't have roost shields yet for them!

 

Definitely confirms I will get them now and install. The diff spacer will be coming in the future too.

 

Speaking of rear shocks...guess we lost a top bolt of one rear shock. If anyone is interested, you're looking for a M14x2x85 bolt to replace. We used a M14x2x80 at Home Depot. Just replaced it and loc tited. Should be smooth sailing on the way back to ATX.

Get a large monkey wrench they can be a pain to squeeze together while your driving the screw through. My shop installed them piston up/body down FYI. I've looked but haven't found a general consensus on which is correct.

    • 2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD Custom 6.6 Gas Canadian built Truck  I tried to search for my previous thread on this topic but cant find it so my apoligies  for starting another one    #1   Since we have owned our truck purchased new it has this strange noise after using the remote start function  you press the remote start and you hear it start but right at the end of it starting it almost seems like it wants to start again after the truck is running .   There is no gap in time it is right at the end of the start . Almost sounds like when you have started a car/truck and its running and then you try and start it again and you get that grinding noise ,sort of     #2  You can only hear this if you are standing outside of the truck and near the truck  you cant hear it when you start the truck from inside  the cab . So it may very well be happening when starting the truck that way as in normally    #3   This only happens when it is started after sitting . For how long I don't know but it happens after sitting overnight for sure and it wont do it if you stop the engine after starting and then start it again  I have had it in to the Dealership before concerning this but they did not have the truck  when it was cold to hear it . Now its back in the Dealership left it overnight so they could possibly hear the problem . They said they tried and nothing happened . Well they did not know what they were listening for . I started the truck remotely and BINGO it makes the noise . Oh that sounds weird they say . We need to look into it ! I have left for this week at the Dealership    Does your 2024 2500 HD gas do this ?  Any of you fellas care to take the time and trouble to film this operation from a cold start  so I can hear what your sound like  Really  would like to know if this is anormal sound  Thank You Fellas !!
    • 2026 Z71.  The other day I was backing a trailer into the barn.  The alarm was going off just because the trailer was in the field of the warning sensors when you get too close to something.  For some reason now the warning alarm doesn't work anymore.  It used to go off when I was just normally backing my truck into garage.  I still have the guidelines in the back up camera.  Is there a button or something to push to turn the sound/Alarm on and off?  I have the touch screen in this truck.  There isn't a "P" on the dash except for the parking brake.  I can't find anything in the touch screen under settings or vehicle.  Thank you in advance.  
    • Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra. 
    • I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.
