Well I just put on my Bilstein 5100's, RC 2" blocks. I have the rims coming tomorrow and have to decide on Ridge Grapplers or Toyo AT2's.

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

Went to the leather appointed dash trim pad. Done a bunch of them. It was time to do mine. To me it’s a huge difference. Still need to get my hands on the cluster visor.

The AT2's are hard to beat.... But the ridge graps do. The ride great, perform great, are quiet, and will last as long as you run the right psi and rotate. I have 20k on mine and still have 75% left.

Nice!

 

I want to do the Denali cluster myself, but I'm holding out for the blue-lighted one.  Problem is, I'm having zero luck finding one for a 2017.  Does the red color not matching bother you?  I'm too OCD to have stuff not match! :sigh:

It doesn’t bother me. I’m actually thinking about getting the GMC radio controls and just swapping the screen over to keep the mylink but all the button colors would be red

Literally I’ve been modifying my truck to the LTZ features, I’m sure a lot a people will say”waste of time and money, just get an LTZ” but to me is more than that., the sense of accomplishment is what drives me to do this kind of mods. Next mod will be be adding the RSE roof screen..[emoji41]

Viktorrocks15 lives in Dallas :). He’s only allowed one “Phil assisted” mod per month :). LOL. I had the opportunity to work on his truck and get his cooled seats to work. One of these days, we’ll both have some free time and get the heated portion of the seats working.

hey lapoolboy

 

why don't you just change out the surface mount LEDs on your dash cluster - it's not hard.  i did that on mine and the results were fantastic....  and i had zero soldering experience before attempting this (i actually had to go buy a soldering iron/gun!   ha!)

 

here is my stock dash...

added an inlay from usspeedo.com.....

pulled the dash cluster and changed surface mount LEDs to blue...

and the final product....

i absolutely love the dash - i think it looks really good

 

the surface mount LEDs were from oznium.com....  https://www.oznium.com/plcc-2

**order some extra... i'm glad i did  (like i said earlier... i had never done anything like this before but i got the hang of it pretty quick!)

Got around to getting my light bar in. It's a 32" hyper series, 180w cree, with 3D optics.

 

pictures  don't do this thing justice - it travels 7-800'. It's hard to get good ones to display the actual output

Edit: don't know why the order is messed up but pic 1 is with the bar and headlights with fogs, pic 4 is headlights and fogs only. The phone wouldn't focus well

I’ve had both and don’t have anything bad to say about either tire. Both perform well in rain and snow. With that being said i feel the Ridge Grapplers are the better looking tire.

@bc-chris Looks great man! Soldering isn't that hard as long as you're using the right tools for the job and right temp. Like everything just takes practice. Results really speak for themselves. That Volbeat album is great too. Saw them live with Metallica last year, they killed it.

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

      By Atlas · Posted

      The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months. I'm taking this truck home.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rebuild service, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.

      I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.

      By 24trailboss · Posted

      Typically it is the Torque Converter, I have a 2.7L Trail Boss and between 25-65 MPH at 1300-1500 rpms under light throttle it has a shudder which I almost consider and bobble or a gargle sound. They replaced my TC but it did not help any, others say it has fixed their issues. It has been back twice now with no fix after.
