The husky driver side may cover better, but that passenger side is not quite as good as the OEM version.

 

The rear OEM ones are great. I live in a pretty harsh environment and we use a lot of salt/sand. No complaints aside from the driver side gas pedal cut out

Totally true but the huskies are great quality and I wanted to match the set. I may switch back to the OEM's in the front once we are done with winter here.

@Spurshot Always annoying when you push back something easy and it causes more damage. Looks like a black lab from the photo? Got a brown one myself just last year. Boy does he love to fetch.

 

The Lab is actually a chocolate lab.  She was a really nice dog, friendly to everyone and all dogs.  She was a great hunting dog in her day too.  She passed last May.  Still miss her.  But we have a new pointer that is a really nice guy.  Big, but still a good one around the house. Got him as a 5 year old, ready to hunt, from some friends.

 

The old lab on the ride home when we picked her up.  She put her head in my good hat.  Was my buddy till the end.

She was a looker.

Kansas pheasant hunt. Both dogs gone now.

For a duck dog, the old lab could dig up some quail.

Well this just happened today. New shoes, 285/55R20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers and Fuel 20x9 +1 D625 Vandal wheels. I need some better picks, but these were right after they were put on and around town running errands this afternoon.

Looks great! Didn't realize you had to do that much disassembly.

You may be able to get by with not taking the passenger seat out, but it definitely makes it much easier. It was a pretty simple install, thanks to the thread and video by pgamboa.

@Spurshot Looks like a great dog man. I just got mine this past July. Remi is my second lab, great dogs.

Heard nothing but good things about pointers as hunting dogs.

Looks good!  I never tire of that wheel pattern and hope to own a set someday!

It’s the only set I’ve ever had that I haven’t wanted to replace. I was referring to new tires, I guess shoes could be either/or now that I think about it.

    • 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. 
    • New engines will still be using DEF. You just won't have the limp modes occurring when you run out of DEF now.
    • I am not a NOCO fan for a charger I would leave on a battery 24/7. The reason is, it doesn't really float. It waits until the battery drops to a certain voltage and then charges it back up to 14V. It's better than no charger I guess.
    • I would never do anything but lithium.   If the vehicle is stored, just turn the disconnect off. My batteries are completely disconnected form everything in the trailer when my disconnect is off. Trailers don't always come that way as some still keep the CO/LPG monitor on. When mine is off...it is off.   As far as storage temps, LiFePO4 are good down to -20°C. I would store them in a heated place if it goes below that. You can also get heating mats with a thermostat if power is available.   The way the heaters work, if it's below 0°C, if a charge comes in, it is directed entirely to the heater until the battery gets above 0°C and then it allows the charge to go to the battery.   For my Android tablet I use as a display, I can move it inside my house if I was ever in an area that got super cold.
