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.

Looks great, did the same thing to mine over the summer.

 

Did you buy the kit with all 3 pieces, and replace your existing skid plate cover?

Service Component, Under Body Shield 23135960 1 $65.52 Shipped   are the part numbers I ordered from GMPartsdirect in 2018. Z71 should already have the metal skid plate from the factory for the transfer case.

Yes, I bought the kit on eBay a few weeks ago after a member posted their upgrade. Was that you? If so, thanks!

 

I did replace the existing skid plate. I banged it up on a hunting trip in September and the third plate already had some rust on it.

Was not me, never got around to posting any pictures after it was done.

 

I bought mine from GMPartsdirect.com, along with extra bolts.

Too bad, almost looks like the floor of your truck is made of glass in the picture.

 

Where did you mount the lights? And how?

the interior light "wire" is right under the dash on the drivers side plugged into the bcm, i just tapped into that wire and then I used the 10mm mounting bolt on the lower kickpanel as the ground and then just ran a led strip under the edge of the dash to the passenger side, zip tied it at both ends so it is tight like a tightrope, it's not in the way of anything and if it needs to be moved for any reason I can just cut the zip tie on the passenger side and pull it out then put it back later. I ran the wires so they are behind the factory wires and out of the way of getting yanked or pinched, the power wire is fused so if it shorted out for any reason it will just pop the fuse on the led strip and not harm anything else.?

Full exterior detail.. clay bar, ceramic, wax/sealant plus fixed what chips I could on the front bumper. 6 hours later and I’m totally exhausted lol.. the most time consuming part was cleaning/waxing/sealing the wheels. All of those nooks and crannies on these honeycombs really takes a bit of time.

Today I finished installing bus bars in the bed. Right now it is covered with a tonneau, but I plan to order a topper between now and Black Friday. I plan to keep the truck for a long time, so I don’t trust T-taps for a permanent wiring solution. These bus bars will help with modifying the bed lighting for a switch in the bed. It will provide a solid ground for my CHMSL circuit. It will also make it easy to wire an air compressor and accessory outlets in the bed.

a previous thing I did was swapped in a 220amp alternator (kw5) from a 3500, it's plug-n-play just make sure you get the one with the correct pulley as there is 2 different ones, decoupled and steel

      2026 Sierra 1500 Denali - Sound upgrade?

      By artistemorbidity · Posted

      I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.

      The Peckish Synapse

      Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.

      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.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      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.
