It lays over top of your existing wheel and you tuck it in under your trim/controls and stitch it yourself

Installed a heated GMC all terrain steering wheel so I could have heat and red stitching. And also replaced the silver plastic interior pieces with Denali brushed aluminum pieces.

Do you have the part number for the red stitched wheel? My all terrain's wheel is looking rough.

Got a console sub project going on another site. 

 

Got these Clazzio seat covers for less then $400 and installed them. Love them. They feel better then factory leather. Anyone interested in purchasing these seat covers pm me for seller info.

Not today but in the last week, I had my 275/60R20 Falken Wildpeak AT3W tires replaced. I really liked them but they are now discontinued and replaced with AT4W. But it was going to cost $356 per tire plus install and tax. I just couldn't justify that. Instead I went with Atturo Trail Blade ATS tires which had no negative reviews and also a load range rating of 116T XL over the AT4W of 115T SL. This just seemed to be a better choice since I do occasionally tow a toy hauler camper as well as a 7x16 crargo trailer. And the Atturos are less than half the price. So far they give a nice ride on both city streets and highway driving.

Mishimoto trans cooler delivered today.  Hopefully tomorrow I can get it installed.  I had previously installed the Superior Solutions mod.  The Mishimoto kit comes with a something similar to the Superior Solutions kit.  Not sure if there is a reason to replace the Superior Solutions version with the Mishimoto version.   Anyone else that has been in this situation and what did you do?

It's only like a simple 10 minute job. Why not just change it. If you don't like it, you can always go back to it.

Yearly clay bar and wax. Went with Cerakote ceramic sealer this time. Time will tell if it’s any good.

I pulled the trigger and got a DiabLew custom tune for my truck. I have never done this to a vehicle before and was a little intimidated at first, but after doing extensive research on the internet (watching videos, browsing these forums, etc.) I felt it was the best solution for me. My commute threw me into more stop-and-go traffic than normal, and while there was nothing inherently wrong with my truck mechanically, the AFM and transmission was making the drive pretty exhausting.

 

I am pleasently surprised with the results. It didn't drastically transform the driving experience or anything or "awaken the beast," but it did smooth everything out. Everything feels more stable, which is a great feeling. I don't have to deal with the constant clunking I had previously when stopping and going. I also feel I can confidently overtake someone on the highway where as before I really had to think about it.

 

I am not done with the process yet as I still need to conduct a WOT log, but wanted to share my current experience with it. I never had any issues with AFM, but having V8 all the time was an extra bonus with the tune and I will admit I like not having the rumble/vibration of V4 mode. I am also hoping this (combined with my cooler trans thermostat) will squeeze some additional life out of my 6L80 as I am still on the original one with 145,000 miles.

I’ve had mine for several years, it’s been great! The WOT log will add even more to the tune catered to your truck.

Like Bobaloo22 above I have had a Diablew tune for quite some time.  I love how much better the trans shift points and the reduction in the accel lag when hitting the pedal.  The only issue with this is that my truck did not come with E85 so I bought the sensor.  Unfortunately Lew will not add the the E85 to the tune because he believes that since the truck did not come with the E85 that the engine components would not be able to handle the change.  My thought is that the trucks that have it have the same engine components so not sure why he has an issue.  Otherwise its great.

    • It wouldn’t have happened if the government hadn’t mandated outrageous fuel mileage standards. It does very little for the consumer. It adds cost. Back during Covid there was a chip shortage. They gave a rebate for your truck if it didn’t have the chip to turn on cylinder deactivation. It was 50$ because at best you may see 1/2 a mile increase per gallon. Splitting hairs each fuel mileage trick wasn’t mandated. The government doesn’t do the engineering work and say use this until it’s already in use and they like it. The fuel mileage was mandated. And those add ons the results. There’s a mandate and they are the results.
    • It was never mandated.  Ever.    Automakers were incentivized to install it by getting CAFE credits to help with their vehicle fleet fuel economy scores.  They were being handed money/CAFE credits to install it.  Which is NOT a mandate.       The current admin removed the incentives that were behind them installing it.       
    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
