Looks good from what I can tell...cant zoom in on my phone without it being blurry

 

Cell phone pictures...the color match is very close. There are some imperfections on the edges and a couple places where it is difficult to work the wrap, but you can't see them unless you look for them up close. I think it looks good, eventually I will have them painted to match.

Another day, another couple of mods...just picked the truck up from the shop: true dual exhaust with 2 in-2-out Flowmaster 50 series and McGaughy's 2" lowering shackles to level it. My exhaust guy is "multi-talented" he did the exhaust AND lowering!!

 

Excuse the crud on the truck...it snowed and sleeted yesterday and it's 18° today!

Really like the turn down behind the rear tires. Any drone? Your exhaust guy did it custom? How much? Can you take a pic of your drop shackles? Really like your mods :cheers:

The "drone", as everybody calls it, has never bothered me on any of my trucks. I expect it and, honestly, kind of like it. I figure if you're gonna put a nice performance muffler on your vehicle it's just something that's gonna be there. I just don't have a problem with it. I guess what I'm trying to say is that you'll have to ask somebody that considers it annoying :).

So it's there. Answers my question thanks lol. I like the exhaust it's unique.

 

Also interested in a pic of the drop shackles that's next on my list. Maybe a nice side shot of the truck to? Thanks.

Dredd,

Thanks!!! As for the drone, read my earlier reply. Yes he totally hand-built the complete system and custom-bent each piece of pipe. The total cost was $410 (muffler and pipe stock). I've used him before and he's always done a great job. Concerning the shackles they look just like the stock ones only longer. I'll post pics when it warms up.

Let me clarify the drone effect. The muffler drone is there but not overpowering. It's way quieter than my '07 was. I had the same 50 series Flowmaster on that truck but it was single in/dual out. Maybe the dual in/dual out makes it less noticeable. I removed the 3rd cat so I have a separate pipe coming from each cat on each header.

 

Just a thought.

    • 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?
