Order 4 of them.  All you need is the knobs, the rods don't fit our trucks.  The knobs unscrew of the rods.

thanks!

@bc-chris You mind me asking how much you paid for that?

 

the kicker for me is this is usd...  so add 30% to get it into canadian $.... and then the lovely $32 customs charge compliments of canada post...  but i still LOVE it!

Damn, yeah steep but awesome none the less. I've poked around a bit and have received a quote for $175. Want one but pricy. I've been looking into a new grille but I can't get over how expensive the mesh grilles are.

a while ago in this thread one of the guys showed some pics of some new hitch covers he got from kempter kustoms

 

they looked AWESOME so i checked out the link above and found a part of the webpage where you can order a custom hitch cover.  so then my dilemma was 'do i just order the awesome boba fett hitch cover or go full custom?'...  well, i went full custom.  after a few emails back and forth i placed my order and today my hitch cover showed up - it's AWESOME!!!!

 

this is my men's hockey team jersey (i've run this team for 9 seasons now - just a great bunch of guys - they are like brothers!)

and this is the hitch cover that showed up today....

what i LOVE is that they left the eye 'hollow' and there is a cutout in the back of the hitch cover so i can add an LED.  i'm going to use a red LED and wire it to my brake light!  ha! ha!

They do great work! I have 2 hitches from them so far. I want to do a custom Chase Elliott Hitch next but have more important things to spend the money on right now unfortunately :( Probably going to be a Xmas gift to myself lol

Got to try out my new tailgate pad along with bringing home a new stick, little sketchy driving down the interstate with $1k worth of surfboard sticking out of your truck.

@bc-chris nice lookin hitch cover I’ve got a Punisher from a Kemps on my 015. I’d recommend if your leaving it on year round or drive on gravel clear coat or clear film it front and back as mine has already (with in 2 years) started pitting (both sides mostly back) and the sad thing is I don’t drive that truck in the winter...

Deleted mechanical vacuum pump. Installed a CVR655 electric pump.

Installed an Amsoil bypass oil filter using the vacuum pump oil galleys.

Any more details and part numbers?

Got the driver assist handle installed at the dealership hoping it wouldn't have the gap issue with the headliner others have reported when doing it themselves, but turns out it must just be how that part was designed.  Not bad but a little annoyed I paid 20 bucks for them to do it and it still isnt really perfect.

 

The last picture is the passenger side handle which has no gap for comparison.   If anyone knows how to get that gap to go away please let me know, otherwise I'll just live with it since the handle still seems perfectly sturdy and functional.

Huh, did mine myself, no gap. You could try and put some foam or something behind your headline to push it out.

    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
