I work with mostly women and they all think my truck is black.   I would like to see one of these black trucks set up like mine. My GMT-900 was black and I decided to go with the Iridium Metallic

Well I finally took the dive and did some paint correcting from the dealer installed swirl marks. Clayed, two stage polish, sealed and waxed. Keeping a new truck clean is a second job; keeping a black

When the birds decide your mirror is a good perch... time to break out the Mosin.0a802d687d4311baab4be17ef3df15a6.jpg

Having the same problem at work. I think it is mating season, they see their reflection and think it is a rival and attack it (themselves). The more worked up they get, the more they crap everywhere. Looks awesome on a black truck, little bastards!!!! Edited by jimcost2014

Nah there's a robin at my house that has decided the mirror is an excellent perch. Now I just fold my mirrors in. My wife's car looks half red and half white now though cause her mirrors don't fold

Folded or out, my passenger mirror gets attacked. Little bird, like the ones in the McDonalds parking lot, looking to kick it's own ass.

Don't have any right now. I'll try and get some this weekend when I rotate the tires.

Here ya go. I do have the 1-3/4" spacers in the rear to match the increased track width in the front.

so hopefully this is a good thread to ask this question before i attempt to start a new thread...I was thinking about blacking out the red Z in Z71 on my doors and my front grill. what would be the safest and easiest way to do that? my two thoughts are taping off and using plasti dip OR getting some touch up paint and just getting little brush and painting that way...thoughts?

 

or even better, are their any after market stickers (that i haven't been able to find yet) that i can just put over the red?

That looks real nice. I think I need to add some spacers in the rear also. Mine aren't that aggressive so I won't need that big of a spacer though. Did you have to install longer wheel studs?

Zone 4.5 lift increases total front track width roughly 3". I did 1 - 3/4" spacers to get me close and not have to trim studs. 1.5" spacers would need studs trimmed for proper fit. Technically they are more of an "adapter" rather than a spacer. Aggressiveness of tire doesn't really dictate size of spacer needed. Less aggressive and/or narrower of a tire would still have a roughly 3" increase in track with in front relative to the rear.

i used plastidip on mine - turned out great....

 

i'd post a pic but photo bucket isn't working at the moment.

 

you can see it here in my build thread....

nice job, man you spent some time on that! slick! i already ordered the vinyl since it was so cheap so im going to give that a shot...thanks for the idea, if the vinyl doesnt work, might have to go your route! nice truck man!

does it fit in the garage with the 4.5 lift ?

That I do not know. I have not tried. The motorcycle won the battle for garage parking.

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

      Have considered installing a DC to DC charger in your camper to replace your isolator?

      Gas fill door

      Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.

      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

      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.

      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?
