Hauled this precious cargo home for the first time from the NICU after 40 days!   Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

Found an hour of free time yesterday and installed GM - Illuminated Door Sills. Love the way they look! Of course, made a how to video. The box didn't come with instructions and tried searching he

Truck did some light lifting, taking the new surfboard to catch a few from the hurricane Barry swell.

Been way to long since I did any mods.  Didn't actually permanently install it yet or run any wires, just a mock up of how it looks.

 

The lightbar probably wouldn't get much use but it was free and I really don't have any need for more forward lighting.  Sick of it taking up shelf space in the garage.

Lots of option for wiring it up. 

 

-Use a relay and tie into cargo light switch

-Reverse Lights

-Standalone spot on my up-fitter switch.

-Switch in the bed

Or really any combination.

 

Thoughts?  Any other places to mount it where it might be more useful?

I thought the tone from the Magnaflow 12587 was too quiet and i wanted something more agressive. After much contemplation i decided to go with a Jones Performance JT3535XL muffler to a 5 in tip dumped right after the axle. It sounds deeper and like a truck withna 6.2l should sound like.

Nice left in the background. Have any other pictures of that swell?

Got the partial xpel paint protection film today. Love the results.30bf4040fc9e5298b9ffa8da68185744.jpg025d121ce80d787705db1370e591e8e7.jpg0b89a3d0bc1c176e9002d7f1ec44a02b.jpg

A few months ago, one of my wheel caps got stolen. Went to Discount tire to order a new one, ended up being on backorder for a month. Two months later it finally came in and was the wrong one. They ended up sending four so the manager ended up giving me the four at no cost so I have four new caps now.

EDIT: Top pic are the new ones, bottom pic is the old ones.

Installed a Vantrue N2 Pro dashcam and hidden wire kit. Not a fan of the fuse panel cover on the drivers side. Even with a panel tool I had to break one of the clips. It was even hard to get the broken clip out with a pair of pliers.

I don’t have any more personal pics, but gulfster.com has a bunch of pics from all over FL gulf coast of that swell. This was taken at honeymoon island, we had some fun waist-chest high peelers.

How much lift did you end up with on that setting?

..2018 Double Cab Z71 I ended up gaining more height than I wanted - gained a hair over 2" but I'm hoping it will settle out at 1.5"..I pull a camping trailer and still want some rake.. if not I'll be pulling them again and dropping a notch

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.

      cam upgrade in CA

      By davester · Posted

      apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.

      Possible lifter tick after DOD delete

      By davester · Posted

      yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
