Installed custom made Z71 red and black MGP brake caliper covers today.  Gives my 2018 midnight a nice pop of color to tie the tail lights and badge all together with the extra red.

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

Used $18 CDN Amazon TPMS tool to teach the new pressure sensors in my winter rims. Worked great!

that would come in handy. I have to remember to ask the dealer to do mine, as one front and rear are mixed on the display.

Those are pretty slick.  By "custom made" did you make them yourself or get them somewhere?  If you got them I'd be interested in some additional info please.

Put on Husky mud guards. Rear fitment is spot on. Front fitment is off just a tad, but worked out. No drilling. No taking off tires. Although I had to jack up the rear end at the hitch so my ratchet would clear the tire. All in all, not bad and I’m happy with how they look.

You put in your model info then you pick your colors and designs and you can even upload your own image or use custom text.  Front and backs can also be different.

Where’d you get it?  I don’t like the one that came in my ‘18, and plan on swapping it out for a ‘14-‘16.

What don't you like about the 2018 Console ?  Upper trim pieces are available in different trim colors if you want to change the look.

 

I got mine locally off of Craigslist so had no choice of options. It has the fixed cup holder and I'll be exploring options to change it to the movable one soon.

 

No matter what for me it beats the heck out of the center jump seat !

The fixed cup holder.  In my ‘15, I was able to move the cup holder, so I could put my CB and scanner in the deep hole under it, the aft position.

Score a free zero turn today, got it running in about 10 minutes. Also borrowed a rental aerator from work. Nice working for a company that also does small engine repair. Truck didn't even know that stuff was on the trailer. Love how the turn downshifts earlier than normal when in tow/haul, sounds awesome with the borla exhaust.2a73118c998a85ae27a914f15c2e200c.jpg

Understand that. It's a huge wasted space on the later trucks. Upper trim is easy to replace with on eff off Ebay for about 90 bucks. Add the moveable cupholder form the source of your choice and be done with it.  That's what I'll be doing soon.

Went to my in laws to aerator their yard. Went in to talk to them and came outside to find a tree had fallen across the road. We had very strong winds here in central IL today. So I got the tow strap out and pulled it out of the road. By the time the county road guy showed up, we had the tree pushed of to the side of the road. 919a49f8d51e294003b0c09da749f451.jpg

Yes, it was extremely windy in IL today. When I saw the preview of your reply it left me wondering if a tree fell on your truck. Glad that wasn’t the case!

      There you go again.  Preaching your politics and worse case scenarios.  And what are you doing to make the world less polarized?

      VSE CCV Bypass - Anyone have this installed in their L5P?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Maybe.   Maybe.   I don't want to be the one that needs help and can't get it when I need it. That is a legitimate complaint, and how they respond to those legitimate complaints is a big red flag to me.   I don't care how good the product is their conduct is subpar. Some people are fine supporting that for the sake of getting the product they want. I'm not.   To be fair, I haven't seen or touched their product in person to determine for myself the quality of it. I'm not offering any opinion on that either.

      So if you do nothing and they act on their threats like death to America or Israel. And possibly a nuclear war. Whoever survives wonders why didn’t they listen? Or we do something like every President has said they can’t get a nuclear weapon. We’re at the 10 yard line and it happens the time is now or never. I think I’m ok with paying a little more for gas for awhile. It’s a shame that we now live in a world that’s so polarized.

      6 Speed vs 8 Speed

      4-5-6 fails due to design.  Not enough clutches and not enough piston to clutch surface area.  Also the backing plate can bow.     I'd say converter is two part.  The design of converter chosen, and factory tuning of it aka slipping it in D (also L6) for AFM purposes, as well as locking it up in 2nd gear, sometimes 1st, also it will partially lock up at light loads.  All because CAFE/fuel economy requirements.  A billet converter on the stock tune might hold up better, but would still be subject to the stock tuning and how its designed to lock or partially lock.     The most baffling part to me, is the 2007-2013 6L80s didn't have the failure rate the 2014-2018 ones do.  I've been where I work for almost 17 years now, and I recall maybe 3 or 4 of the 07-13 transmissions getting pulled for something.  14-18 on the other hand, it was at a minimum one a month being opened up.    If I had to guess, I'd say the tuning for the gen 5 engines/6L80 setup and its fuel economy goals had a good bit to do with it.  Also, it was bankruptcy time during these years, so I'm thinking some cost cutting was done for the launch of the K2XX trucks.  See also now the 10 speed valve body issues (more cost cutting).  They blow out some mesh screen in the spacer plate, undersized check ball, and the feed limit valve was aluminum and wears out prematurely.         I don't think it was the HP jump from the gen 4 to gen 5?  The 6.2 in the 07-13 trucks was good for 380-400hp during its life/states of tune, and the 5.3 did 310-320hp.

      All this might be worth it had we actually recovered enriched uranium, a WMD, or an actual nuclear deal with oversight. This is a flub of epic proportion, and they all know it.   $5.10 at a station reporting $4.99 last week. Here we go....
