Follow up to my bed rail picture the other day, finished up the video. If you can’t tell I’m a huge fan of the hex series stuff Deezee started making, they finally got out of their comfort zone (90s era truck accessories) and started designing cooler crap for our trucks.

Rainy day means no work for me so I had a set of Michelin Defenders installed on my (new to me) '16 Sierra Denali. Stock Bridgestones had 4/32 left at 44k miles. Lots of praise on here for the Michelins and lots of guys saying they get 70k+ on them. Hope to be one of them! I use the truck for work and put about 25k miles a year on it with a 60/40 mix of highway/city.

I need this with my tint as well.  Mind sharing those part model bulbs?  Assuming it should be same part number for a 18 Silverado?

The factory bulbs are 921. Just search Auxito 921 LED and you will find them. I got mine off Ebay.

I didn’t do anything but Mother Nature decided to add some snow. I know it’s not a big deal for most of y’all but snow down here in southern Arizona isn’t something that happens often.


What part of AZ? I’m in Tucson and was in FL during snowpocolypse.

Put the Michelin's on our Tahoe, great tire! Truck rides better, handles better, etc...…

They're definitely an improvement over the stock bulbs for sure.

Just dropped it off at the dealer for my free oil change & tire rotations.

It’s also got a suspension squeaks going over bumps when it’s cold out. The truck only got 8017 miles on it.... wonder if that’s normal....

The cold weather squeaks are annoying but normal.  My truck always does it ones it below 40.  I think it's either the front shocks or the bushings on the control arms.

    • 87 down as low as $5.14 here... winning!
    • Progress... sort of.   Intake is disassembled, spider is out, fuel lines removed. Used a torch on the stripped screw with the lower intake off, much easier when I've got the intake sitting on my workbench, I made it talk. Walked right out with a pair of vice grips once it was nice and toasty hot.   New parts are piling up on my service cart waiting to be installed. Distributor, temperature sensor, new gaskets, fuel line kit, themostat, water neck.   My new pickle is I don't want to spend $600 on a replacement spider. I'm not sure IT is bad. I'm probably splitting hairs. Or it's $300 to send mine away and another 3 weeks of the truck just sitting. I have half a mind to assemble everything with the old spider to see if I can get away with just replacing the fuel pressure regulator to be safe. The obvious issue was the gushing high pressure fuel line which will be replaced. Getting to the spider really isn't that hard, and now I know what I'm doing , swapping it would be a breeze should it absolutely need one. Stupid, or smart?   The part that gives me pause is replacing the distributor. Well, it's already out. And I didn't mark it, whoopsie! Engine was at TDC when I removed it, I know that, so upon correct reinstall the metal tip on the rotor should point to the TDC mark on the distributor because that's where it was pointing on the old distributor. Worst case I'm a tooth off and have to re-stab it.   But then, what? I assume the truck will start. It doesn't appear the timing can be set. Here's the problem: These distributors can't be rotated but a degree or two, by design. What I read is Cam ****** needs to be -2 to +2 degrees, ideally at 0 (and checked/set above 1000 rpm). There should be enough wiggle to get that properly set, but checking the reported value is another potential issue. My Actron 9185 scanner says it supports enhanced GM PIDs and Cam ****** is one of them but it's unclear that I'll be able to correctly see it over OBD 1.5. I can see why people end up junking these things with life left in them. They're an absolute nightmare with tweener-year diagnostics/electronics and unobtanium parts.   Fingers crossed it starts and idles nicely. There can be hope, right? I'ma buy a lottery ticket the same day just in case.   Next steps..DO IT. I have not installed an intake before so I've been reading and watching a lot. Some say NO RTV except on china walls, some say DO RTV on water ports but not fuel/air intake. 1/4 or 3/8 bead on China walls? I think my strategy will be, obviously, RTV china walls with overlap on the gasket corners. Chapstick-style RTV the water ports. Leave intake ports dry. The only set of intake gaskets I could find locally are Edelbrock performance gaskets (uh...for an asthmatic 190hp V6? LOL) so we'll see how they do.   #NoToolLeftBehind. It took an hour, but my recovery mission for my deep 10mm socket was successful. It had rolled down the bellhousing and wedged itself between what I think are the fuel lines? I couldn't see it at all, but with a junk antenna I had laying around, I blindly went poking/sweeping for it, heard it clink, raised the truck, and caught a sliver glimpse of chrome with a flashlight way up there in Narnia. I had pushed it farther along the lines holding it captive, but within access of severely improvised tools, poking and cursing at it to finally knock it free to where I could get a fingertip on it to bring it home.    Not much to see.
