Got my AJT designs key fob today and I decided to color fill the buttons. I was super tired of the crappy sticky rubber on the oem fob. This is great quality so far and is way thicker than the oem one. Not much bigger in terms of the footprint also.

Covered the wire in braided loom, ran it through the gaps in the body supports and zip tied it to a wire bundle behind the wheel well liner right up to the battery. Also, split loom would not fit all the way through the gaps but I ended up doubling it on top of the braided loom and pressed it as far as I could into each gap opening to have extra protection where it contacted metal edges.

Thanks and I used 3/8" for 4awg wire!

Picked up a U-Haul 6x12 trailer, last night.  Hauled our living room seating down to San Diego, today, and bringing mother-in-law’s living room seating back up to the Antelope Valley, tomorrow, in time to be off of I-15 before the Vegas rush. 

Crossed 4500 as we were leaving San Diego (sitting at a light on Palm Ave fixing to turn onto I-5), crossed 4600 in Corona, CA, and am about to cross 4700 when I go to return the trailer tomorrow.  

 

The attached videos are when we got home, and when we were done emptying the trailer.

Where did you get both the e-track bracket and the strap(s)?

 

got them at Princess Auto (Canadian version of Harbor Freight) but you can get it on Amazon or anywhere that sells trailer accessories.

Installed the Diablo I3. Really pleased with the canned 91. Looking forward to getting a Lew tune soon. Should have done this way sooner.

I cut a bit of the foam carpet padding out and cut an  X in the carpet to fit snugly around the grommet.

That looks good. I actually ran my 2/0 welding wire through the firewall hole. I thought it would be really hard but wasnt too bad really. Actually fit in all the door channels too.

Swapped my black Denali grille for a black All-Terrain grille. Really happy with the look, I'm usually not a fan of chrome but the dark chrome on the AT grille really ties in the headlights.

 

I throw enough paint business at the dealer near me that they are redoing my Denali grille. It'll get completely stripped and recoated in black and clear coat. Let me know if anyone is interested in buying it off me. I'm sticking with the AT grille so the Denali grille will be in brand new condition!

Tried a few usb cables I had from other things to see if I could get Android Auto working in my truck. I figure I paid for it, I should figure out how to use the features. Anyhow, this fancy braided cable that didn't seem to want to work, worked just fine tonight. The cable had been showing the lightning bolt charging icon intermittently on the phone screen previously, but it was solid and seemed to work fine tonight. Heck if I know.

Nice truck, getting to do what it’s made for! A date with the garden hose (or pressure washer) and a cold beverage looks to be in your future ?

My 1500 next to my old mans 2500.  Over 50 years of driving Chevy trucks between us.  He's a lumberjack so he beats the crap out of his trucks and has never had any major problems in the hundreds of thousands of miles of offloading in his lifetime.

Bought one of these (Dorman 917-412 (tall) or Chevrolet Performance Oil Fill Tubes 12559505 (short)),

20181230_121000.thumb.jpg.f92467629f5a47f898d2e355e43e7f95.jpg

and modified it some to fit the Oil Filler hole of a 2018 Silverado

Now I get to pour oil into a level hole opening, rather than one tilted to 45°. Never understood why they removed these, or made them a non-interchangeable part at least.

    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
    • I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!
    • I haven't seen inventory recovery from COVID.    In the few random times I 'build my own' truck or SUV, no one has the exact one I want.   GM has been working to lower incentives too for a long time.    A $500 incentive isn't getting me off the couch to go truck shopping.
