Removed stock exhaust and installed Borla ATAK cat back exhaust.

How did your exhaust fit? Mine fit a little wonky on the hangers, kind of thought about sending it back but it wasn't a major issue. Because of this the tail pipe was sitting too close to the rear quarter panel and melted some of the black corner protection but it has since settled in and now sits at least an inch away from the bottom of the quarter panel. Just curious about your fitment since we are both using their ATAK kit.

Mine fit nicely on the hangers. The driver's side tip hangs lower than the passenger side due to how it is mounted. The only other issue is the passenger side exhaust tip is turned a little so the Borla name isn't straight up and down. No major functional issues just things I noticed. Over all it is a great set up and was easy to install.

picked up a K&N intake (the plastic one) for $50 on market place and installed it.

ill be swapping out the filter for the dry one asap but for now it sounds AWESOME.

I have the 6.2 and its silent when cruising but great sound when giving it some go.

bought it purely as a noise maker and dont feel/expect any gains.

I picked up something new to tow. 2020 Haulmark, 6'x12'

6'6" interior height. 3500 gvw.

My 2014 H&H 6x14 developed some severe rust under the bed liner spray they spray on the frame during manufacturing. One of the hinges on the ramp door cracked and broke free. There was rust everywhere underneath the trailer . Got them (Brinkmans in Delano MN)to take it on trade in. Good riddance ya rusty POS.

That H&H had 200,000 miles on it and had been through war.

Hey everyone,

First real post here. Leveled the truck yesterday and had it aligned at work today. Got home and put some new meats on there.

managed to fit a Hostile Sprocket 20x10 -19 offset with a 33"x11" duratrac today.

Minor plastic trimming and some wheel well bashing required and she doesn't rub at full lock anymore. Zip tied the wheel well lining back tight as well.

Got a few things done the past couple days, so I'd say 1 thing a day for the last 3 days counts...

-Magnetic Drain plug installed - will post follow up to the effective ness of this when i do my 3K miles oil change.
( Needa 653096 ) - $4.99 on Amazon

-Stubby antenna installed, already noticed lack of HD radio reception more often on typical drive to work. Wouldn't recommend, but ill keep it for now.

-Leather Column shifter installed, end cap near tow/haul button creaks and wiggles a little. Ill try to fix that at some point. GM part number 22857352

-4" tube side steps installed, paid 250$ for em. Will replace with rock sliders later, but this mostly is to save my drivers' leather seat and help my grandparents get into my truck (often).

I will have to check out that drain plug. I've been meaning to install one but have been unsure which drain plug to get. I'm coming up on another oil change in like 1,500 miles so this will be the perfect chance to swap it out.

Which stubby antenna did you get? I went with a GoRecon stubby antenna and I have zero issues with reception, but granted I live in a very large metro area between several major cities so that could be why I have good reception. Driving out east though I had zero issues using AM/FM with the GoRecon stubby antenna.

I'll post a link to the antenna when I can, and i might just do a 1k mile oil change cause I get free oil from work [emoji16]

I see you had a little help from our friend Miller Lite, don't forget to pick up the old exhaust before you mow next time.

it sounds like you are speaking from experience. Did we trash a mower blade or two after leaving "spare hardware" in the yard?
