Floor liners


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi Everyone,

 

I'm shopping for quality floor liners for my '15 Denali I just ordered. I like the Husky X-Act in that it seems to provide more coverage than the WeatherTech.

 

The only problem is that the X-Act's only comes in black. I'm not prejudice mind you. It's just that I'm getting the cocoa interior.

 

Anyone have opinions on which is the best color liner for cocoa interior?

 

I think WT's tan is too light. I wish husky would offer a dark brown.

 

Let me know what you think - especially if I am being too vein over color. Should I be considering another brand?

 

Thanks!

I have WeatherTech's and could not be more pleased. Fit is fantastic and coverage is complete......can only see a very small amount of carpet at the very front of the center hump under the dash (my truck has the 40/20/40 bench). Black makes sense to me as a floor covering.......but then again my interior is black.

This is my second truck with WeatherTechs. I wouldn't buy anything else personally. Tough as rocks, Top quality, perfect fit, and made in the USA. Can't really ask for much more than that.

Thanks guys. Anyone out there that has the cocoa interior? Can you confirm the color of your original flooring/mats?

Just installed the Husky X Acts and couldn't be happier. I've had the Weathertechs and they don't hold a candle to the Huskys.

I didn't realize my gas and break pedals were so dirty until I put these WT's in recently. They are clean now lol. I love the coverage of the WT mats but had to laugh... the back coverage is even more complete so it feels like I am paying all this extra money just to get back to the vinyl floors of yesteryear. Oh well, at least I won't worry when the ice is melting off my boots and auger this ice fishing season, or when the minnow bucket splashes and the next owner will get nice carpet...

Can you put a pic up? I was hell bent on getting WT's until I seen this thread and started looking closer online, and to me it seems the Husky X Acts do cover more are, at least in the online pics.

I have the same truck as you and just installed the Husky Weatherbeaters (black) in mine and like the look a lot. I didn't even consider WT mats because we have them in our '08 Tahoe and they slide around and are deformed/rolled where they fit around the kick panels. They would be nice mats IF they stayed in place.

Do you have the cocoa interior? Would you mind posting a pic?

 

Thank you!

Yes I do have the Cocoa interior. I have no pics at the moment but will take some tomorrow.

    • This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.  
    • 2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.  
    • Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
    • Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
