Have a guy willing to trade my stock wheels on 33s for 20in fuel vapors on 35X12.5. What would I need to do so they fit ? Preferably without having to do a suspension lift

Fender mod, 3/2 level, or bodylift like mentioned. 

 

Or combo of a small level and body lift.

 

Or just lift it. Cheaping out and mix matching components is bound to cause issues.

 

or stay on 33s ahaha

Guess it depends on if you are a 1/2t or 3/4t. It seems like 35 fits with a tiny bit of rub on a 3/4t where is has more rub on a 1/2t

Not much short of a 6” lift

New Aero 22” wipers

Got the pair off ebay for $18.50 shipped to home. Stockers lasted 1 year on the truck. I was surprised they wore off that quick. I’ve never replaced wipers on a new vehicle that soon. This Aero look good and should probably last another year according to site. Not bad for the price; I think.

Crappy wipers are probably the single most annoying thing to me. You buy a 40k+ truck and the wipers come from a used yugo. I bought some "winter wipers" from autozone that were alright in the beginning but suck now, less than 3 months later. You live in an area with a lot of rain/snow?

Not today exactly, but installed this REDARC trailer brake controller.

Nice and discrete!  I wish I was aware of these when I bought my under the dash mount brake controller!

Yeah, I spent a little more but I was looking for a discrete and unobtrusive controller since I’m not going to be towing all that often. Didn’t want to bang my knee on a brick that was only useful a few times per year.

2 years old with 40k—battery went out. Voltage was fine but the CCA was done for.

My buddy in town had same problem around 2 years old. I ran into another guy couple weeks ago with same problem on a 16 and needed a jump.

Got a new battery installed. Not GM one tho.

I was feeling productive this morning...

 

Ran Seafoam through the intake, changed the oil, greased the front end, rotated the tires, and cleaned the throttle body. It wasn't too dirty, but she's spotless now!(this is before cleaning)IMG_20180216_103453370_HDR.thumb.jpg.a698932a64f58d3c93a2ec63eac7500e.jpg

Tightened my oil filter today. Was getting a funny smell once truck got warm so I looked underneath and the filter had some oil running down the side. Reached under and was able to turn about a 1/4 turn with ease. Going to bring this up to the dealer next time I go in.

I was backing into my driveway, earlier this morning (O-Dark hundred), when I got home from work, and noticed that the high mount brake lights were shining through the roof liner, in the cab.  Yeah, it gets really dark around here.

Just purchased a 2016 GMC Sierra Denali.

Has 69,000 on it.

The truck has a bedrug in it and a  2" level.

Getting ready to add 305/55/20 Nitto Terragrapplers tomorrow.

The 275/65/20 Toyo A/T 2's are being taken off as the ride rough and are a little noisy.

Added the Morimoto smoked led fog lights and the Putco polished s.s. door sill covers.

    • There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
