Had the tires mounted and balanced on the new wheels. Front end alignment done. I should have the rear blocks and Bilstein shocks installed tomorrow. My friends truck is in the background with Mcgaughys lift and 35’s.

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

2” lift blocks and Bilstein 5100 shocks went on the back end today. It has a nice stance front to back now in my opinion. Wheels are 20x10 Havok H112 with -24 offset. Tires are Atturo Trailblade MT 33x12.5

let's see installed the drivers side o-****** handle
got a wheel back that was bent and fixed now
routed my bass control knob under the steering column and somehow disconnected a wire on the alarm
drove over to the alarm shop to get that fixed and on the way back I decided to take her up about 110 to see if my vibration is gone from the wheel being bent and it is 90% gone

in the process sped by a highway patrol and promptly received a ticket for 70 in a 65 (lol, he was cool about it after I explained I was "checking for vibration")

I guess I got the correct one, I initially ordered it off of Amazon but after waiting a couple weeks for it to finally ship they somehow screwed that up and it got returned before it ever arrived and after I waited another week I called and finally got a refund the next day so I just ordered it off ebay for like $3 more and it arrived in about 3 days. :) I figure it may come in handy sometime after the lift is installed

Putting feelers out there on selling my truck. Any interest here?

KBB private party books it at $41k in the top end. $39k midrange.

2016 LT - 1500, 5.3 V8 - 39K miles. Options added to be considered an LTZ.

I was about to suggest to do something to accent the curves of the hood.  THAT WORKS!!!

Im thinking this matte black wrap on my truck would have a very cool murdered look.

2 Qs:

 

1) Should I (and others) be nervous that you're selling this? Changing careers?

2) How in the world do you only have 39K miles on that thing? Now you got me thinking I should sell my 2015 (with 81K). :0)

1. No sir. The used truck market is crazy for me not to consider selling. This will also allow my to focus new developments on T1XX trucks :). Will continue to support products and services on K2XX.

2. Truck sits in the driveway and I work from home. :). This ain’t no pavement princess. More like a driveway Queens ;)

Got a bunch of parts in, still need to order long tubes, and find a valve spring compressor that isn’t 100 dollars plus lol. Anyone have a used one they no longer need before I machine one?

Did you have problems with the 6.2 ?  Or are you just upgrading and getting rid of the AFM ?

That truck is going to be awesome! Looks exactly how my table would look if I had the money.

Just like the suspension, I got a hell of a deal on the parts.

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

      By newdude · Posted

      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.

      Active Grille Delete

      By jaszr2 · Posted

      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.

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

      By jake111 · Posted

      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?

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By PBNB · Posted

      Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
