Excellent. I will look for recessed hinges.

Did you utilize the stake pocket mounting bolts to mount the toolbox?

Yes I did. Had to drill a hole for the bolts supplied with the Magnum rack and also used the j bolt type fasteners from the toolbox at the back. You will need some spacers under the toolbox to keep it level, I used rubber 1/8" x 2" x 8" it doesn't need to be glued on it gets clamped between the toolbox and the bed rail. Worked perfect.

And picked this up.

Just finished the Cognito leveling kit, wheels, tires, retrax, and air bags. Amp says 5-6 months until the steps are available.

 

It's almost dark but figured I'd snap a couple pix and post them.

Thank you!

Just the RCX 3.5" "lift"

Wish I went bigger though. Already looking into at least their 5"

Nice. I've seriously considered that kit, but I'm afraid my truck wouldn't be able to fit in my garage. How do you like the ride?

I haven't tried to fit in my garage yet but I'd about bet my life it won't fit.

My '14 1500 with this same lift and 33's just BARELY fit. Had maybe an inch or two clearance.

 

As for ride quality, it's pretty plush. Not much of a difference from stock. It's no drastic height change though so I wish I went bigger.

Very cool. Looks like enough height difference to me! :thumbs:

Where's the road? Honestly that looks like a lot of fun.

You all see the truck parked like a 100 yards away behind him, right? Looks like a parking lot or scenic out look. Beautiful.

3500 LTZ. Wheels are Worx Beast PVD with Nitto Terra Grapplers 305/55/20

I love the brown color.

 

great looking truck, what offset of your wheels?

Thanks..+25 offset.

    • 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.  
    • 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.      
    • 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?
