I have a 2007 suburban, and had to relace the engine. Now that the engine is in of course I see that the replacement does not have provision for the the oil level sensor. Can I use a jumper between the connector terminals and tape it off so I will not get a code, or do I need to go through with changing out the oil pan? Thanks, JDS

- A Clean 40" Light Bar Setup for the 2022+ Silverado 1500
  
  By mandrautomotive · Posted 21 minutes ago
  
  Hey everyone, Thought we’d share our 40" SLIM Light Bar setup for the 2022+ Chevrolet Silverado 1500 for anyone looking at behind-the-grille lighting options. The 40" bar sits behind the lower factory grille, so it stays pretty well hidden when it’s off. The mounting position is also adjustable, which helps with getting the bar positioned properly depending on the grille. A few details on the setup: 40" SLIM LED light bar Fits 2022–2026 Silverado 1500 Spot + flood beam pattern White, amber, or white with amber DRL backglow Adjustable mounting position No cutting or drilling required Doesn't interfere with the active grille shutters Vehicle-specific mounting brackets It’s a straightforward option for anyone who wants the coverage of a 40" bar but prefers to keep the front of the truck relatively stock-looking. Curious what the Silverado owners here prefer — hidden behind-the-grille lighting or an exposed bumper-mounted setup?

  Yes. Absolutely. That doesn't mean I don't like and enjoy a variety of machines. I went for a time with no other vehicle than a 1976 Triumph TR7-V Tiger. Loved that bike and rode it 365 in any and all weather. I did not feel deprived of anything.
- Is This Lift Kit Compatible With a 2020 Silverado 1500 RST Max Tow?
  
  By newdude · Posted 1 hour ago
  
  Shock and spring rates are specific to the NHT max tow package. Changing them will alter the performance of the suspension. Not even the factory GM Trail Boss 2 in lift is compatible with NHT trucks as well. Can you install it? Probably. Will it alter the capability of the NHT package? Yes.

  Thanks, all. It sounds like keeping the software "as is" is the best course of action.

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overengineering Excerpt from the above link: (BTW the above is a 90 second read) [Quote] A story about very precise engineering is given in the 1858 story The Deacon's Masterpiece or, the Wonderful "One-hoss Shay": A Logical Story by Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr., which tells of a carriage (one-horse shay) Because it had been engineered so that no single piece failed first – no piece was over-engineered relative to the others, and they thus all collapsed at the same time. A similar quote by Ferdinand Porsche claimed "the perfect race car crosses the finish line in first place and immediately falls into pieces."[5] [End Quote} By Engineering's own definition then; the AFM and Torque Converters, 4-5-6 clutch assembly of the 6L80E, and a dozen other common chronic parts and systems failures are "UNDER ENGINEERED". And by their own definition done so with INTENT. Ya can't have it both ways OEM's.
