Yes, the guys at the tire shop just move them very quickly, no need to unmount the tires, I just paid for the sensors rebuilt kit for

Aren't the sensors mounted to the back of the valve? I don't see how they can be moved without removing the tire from the rim

They deflate the tire, push the side wall down and remove them.

They are very fast at it. I have watch them do it.

 

On really low profile tires they do have to remove the tires, but not on our trucks.

Im sure everyone is moving them, it super easy. You don't even have to dismount the tires.

Shop that is mounting my new tires will move them for free.

 

Well, when I went to a new wheel, I already had a set of Cooper STMaxx tires I had been running for 8 months. I bought some valvestems for the TPMS, but used the old sensors. The tire shop simply installed my new stems in the new wheels and moved the sensors over from the old wheels. I think they kept the sensors on the same positions on the truck. But when I got home I ran thru a reset with my TPMS reset tool anyway, since it's a simple quick process with a reset tool. Everyone that rotates their own tires should have one. Mine is a cheap one like pictured.

Is the reset tool still just a magnet?

My 14 SLT with Fuel Full Blown 18x9 with LT275/70R18 Duratracks. Waiting on my Readylift to show up. The tires rub the liners when turning but not wanting to trim anything until I get my lift in. Truck has a pack rat tool box with about 600 lbs of weight to level it currently. Might add some airbags to help the rear out as in already hitting the bump stops on big bumps.

I know it's an old post but did you mean 285/55R22? A 65 would be a huge tire.

Yes, sorry

Anyone have a recommendation for a tire that won't go flat every time you drive past a small cactus in west Texas.

Do you have any pics showing where it rubs?

    • I have never seen GM instructions for the other trucks as per the HD with the 6 speed or the half tons but had got the impression that the HD trucks with the 6 speed were not having the same problem that the 10 speed and pan presented. Also video that I have seen of the HD 10 speed with the gas engine starting in 2024 model year showed that it was a real struggle to even make it work when pulling down hard on the exhaust after undoing the exhaust hanger bracket on the side of the transmission as after all there is little room for the pipe to even go down behind the Y joint as it soon would hit a frame cross member. Also that they had tried just like I did with the gasket off and no way was that pan coming out any way they tried to manipulate the pan. From that as well as the local transmission shop talking about the pain in the rear issue, I was not expecting my pan to come out because GM shows it was not even intended to come out without dealing with the exhaust piping.    It would be nice to claim, here's what you do and its easy to remove the pan guaranteed on any HD truck with the gas 10 speed but dollars to donuts the next guy trying what I did would not have the same luck as the exhaust was just manufactured slightly different and be pissed off at my claim that the pan comes out with no issue. Its more of a try and see if your particular truck might work like mine did .... or not !. 
    • Sorry I didn't see this until now, but it works on both the 6 speed and 10 speeds, as well as all the half tons too.
    • Hello, I have a 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 that I recently changed both motor mounts on due to the driver's side being blown out. After replacement I seem to have a steady vibration that I can feel in the pedals and the back of the seat. At this point I'm convinced that the aftermarket "Anchor" branded mounts I used are not performing as well as OE, the only real reason I ended up using the mounts in question was because my local dealers were out a few months to get a Driver's side mount. I've tried "Neutralizing" the mounts according to the motor mount TSB published for these truck to no avail. My trans mount is also in great shape and seems to be absorbing vibrations swimmingly. As far as I can tell there is no issues idling, my idle RPM is steady and I've recently put GM plugs and wires on, however, I have not cleaned the throttle body or intake valves. Any one else have a similar experience with aftermarket mounts? Patience certainly is a virtue that I wish I exercised here. Thank you!
    • I still saw people out for runs, on their bikes/motorcylces, jeeps with the doors off driving around here the past 2 days. I guess we are just used to it here haha.   Tasted like a bonfire the last 2 days.
    • The TCM has to be flashed before it can drive.   If you installed it the way it is, it has the OS (operating system/program) from the 2010 truck you got it from. That will not match with the VIN/OS pair that your 2013 truck has.   You can do the full install. Then tow it to a dealership and they can flash the trucks PCM/TCM with the latest program for your VIN.
