Your old one was built there too.

Actually the 2018 was built at the Ft. Wayne plant.

 

Up until yesterday morning when I shredded them I had the papers to prove it.

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.

I don't know how you didn't switch brands. I would have left GM had that happened to me.

eh I have had that happen before on a previous truck, intermittent problems are a ****** for sure but mine turned out to be a bad starter, replaced the starter and never happened again.

77,000 miles. No catch can. I’ll be addressing this after I finish my trans overhaul. Might just pull the engine and replace it if I can find a lift out for the right price.

2,800 mile round trip to ColoRADO. Truck never skipped a beat, other than the small doe that tried to ruin our trip about 8 hours into the drive somewhere in Nebraska. Very impressed with how it did, but man I wish I went with the 6.2!

Pic of said damage, luckily it wasn't significant enough to stop us from some amazing riding in the mountains.

Getting ready for a road trip.  Added new D-

Rings to the bed of my truck and to the tailgate.  The ones in the bed are bolted down and can take a lot of weight.  The ones on the tailgate are mainly for the cargo net.

 

I added mudflaps and a new cabin air filter.  I used Rust-Oleum bedliner to paint my toolbox and painted surface of the tailgate that did not have the spray liner.  All of the D-Rings and other hardware are stainless steel, but I sprayed them down with the bedliner too.  Like the gritty flat surface.  The tool box was bare aluminum... It always stood out and now it matching.  

 

My wife has approved my suspension upgrade... Now just trying to see what to go with.  Got a quoted for $1800 to put fox 2.0 on front and back.  I am looking at more.  I don't care for looks... I need something that will make driving to my hunting spots more comfortable.  It's in the mountains.

Finally got to hand wash, clay and paint sealant. I’m pretty sure it’s the first hand wash since last fall. ??. It’s bad, considering I’m a detailer on the side. I never have time to work on my own stuff.

      Fluid Change Questions

      By Z45 · Posted

      I would be surprised if the diff's were not filled (with the cheapest gear lube) at the axle factory before being shipped to GM.  If you ever watched them building trucks they install the axles and all suspension parts with the frame upside down and then turn it over before its time to install the engine.     Too much gear lube in a axle can be worse than not enough especially with a lower quality GL where is get whipped up with entrained air (foam)  weakening its ability to lubricate.

      This is the 6.6 gasser section of the forum, you should either delete or modify your previous post as it is misleading for anyone looking for factual information on their 6.6 gas engine.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Well....I've done my first intake gasket. Probably wrong, but...we'll see?   Ultra black on the china walls and 1/4" up onto the sides of the intake gaskets. Permatex High Tack (couldn't find Gaskachinch) on the head side of the intake gasket. I read wrong and it says you're supposed to put it on the mating surface of the head, not the gasket. Hoping it's like a PB&J sandwich where it doesn't matter what side the PB goes on so long as there's jelly. That crap is messy/sticky and I got a dab or two on the intake port openings, tried to wipe it off. Hopefully it won't be a big deal and will only aid in sealing.   Per instructions I left the intake (top side) of the gasket dry except for a light smear of RTV around the coolant ports. Wiggling the intake in there was a bear but I had help to free me of surrounding wiring/stuff but I was basically able to set it straight down lined up with the bolt holes.   I did not think to wait until the RTV skinned over but there probably was 5-10 minutes while it sat before installing the intake.   Bolts finger tight first. Then, followed the Chilton's manual pattern to snug them to 15 lb-ft.   Waited a little over an hour, and then did the final torque in sequence again to 35 lb-ft.   Yesterday I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and got my new "nut and bolt kit" (fuel lines) installed. Damn GM used security torx on the spider, which I don't have, so I got scammed at the local HW store for an off-brand security Torx bit set.   The new driver's door mirror arrived yesterday, so, there's a chance this thing could be running and road legal tomorrow? I don't want to get my hopes up.   This will be my first time stabbing a distributor, too. Although, lucky me, someone else marked the old distributor for removal previously, I did see that. (Someone's been here before!!). Engine is still at TDC so it *should* be just a matter of transferring the mark to the new dizzy and rotating it into place.

      He has his dad’s newer truck he’s put away. He has several old cars he rotates between him and his family. I’ve seen a restored square body and a SS Chevy truck he’s sometimes drives. He did raffle off a new suburban recently. As much as he is watched if he drove new stuff as a rule we’d know it. It would be fine by me. I don’t care what people prefer. I got one more new one in me. I’d rather my wife get one. I can’t get her out of the Genesis. Don’t tell anyone. I want her to get an electric truck. I want to put a generator in the back. Just because. She hasn’t bit yet.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      Yes, you must have seen my thread on the Blazer. HOT GARBAGE, but I love them anyway. I'm convinced every car guy has a soft sport for an S/T series somewheres. Probably even a Panther too, if I'm being an honest car guy. That doesn't mean they aren't junk. And they definitely don't get better with age. I sometimes play with old cars, but that's by choice. I don't rely on them and they aren't my everyday fleet.   Derek plays the common man on Youtube and that's no doubt where he started. Now he has Youtube money (and Motortrend, etc). You think his crews and his wife ride around in old beaters when they're chasing him and his wrecks across the country? No he's got newer and nicer stuff for that, you'll see glimpses of it in the footage.
