Does anyone know of a shorter front air deflector for a 2015 Silverado Z71? I've seen pics of one on a '14 and didn't know if there was a replacement or if it had just been trimmed up. The pick I saw was in an old post titled "Picked up a 14' Crew Cab" but i cant seem to message the guy.

Just take it off. One of the first things I did to my truck. Looks way better, and I did not notice any difference in fuel use. I just put it away in case a future owner wants it.

I feel like the two of you have GMC's which can cleanly be removed unlike the Chevy.

What does that mean? I took mine off my Chevy too. Just get under there with a stubby wrench.

Thanks guys. Mine is already a little tweaked from an altercation with a 6x6 post at the campground so I'll probably trim it and if I jack it up no big loss.

I trimmed the low hanging parts off on my sierra, I may just take it off all together. I had it off for a week.

Does anybody have any pics of theirs removed? I bought my '14 used and the guy before me must of hit it on a high curb because the brackets that hold it on have been bent backwards and now there is a small gap between the deflector and the bumper.

I plan on taking mine off in the next few weeks before hunting season starts up. I also have 1 year of gas fill ups on a spread sheet so I plan on seeing how a year without the airdam effects mpg's (my truck is stock height with stock tires).

      AFM Disabler Question

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I’m doing an experiment on a vehicle I don’t have much money in. I’m going by the premise that after they last 100K miles they were no mechanical problems with assembly. Or defects with the parts. With oil changes by the minder for the first 127K miles when I acquired it. I quickly went through low mileage oil changes then settled on 5k oil changes with close to 170K miles on the vehicle currently. I did have the option to turn off the cylinder deactivation. I didn’t on this vehicle because it’s in ECONOMY mode at least half the time. It should be a no brainer frequent oil changes are the key. The manufacturer gets away with the long oil changes with its severe service  maintenance. Just ask them what is normal.

      Hot air constantly blowing through floor vents, drivers side only?

      By baglie1 · Posted

      Even set to "recirculated", the air pushes out and is hot. I have noticed that sometime it doesn't want to switch between recirculated/vented air. Say it is set to Circulated Air and I want to switch to Vented, when I click the Vented button, it just quickly lights up/clicks and immediatly switches back to Circulated. It's done this a few times now. So maybe it is an actuator getting stuck? But then, that doesn't explain the hot air when everything is off does it?

      I wonder what the price is out at the coast, Big Sur or other out of the way locations as I bet they are charging quite a premium over the in land pumps.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Were you looking at the HD trucks on the GM website or the half tons as that makes all the difference. As far as I know there are only two options for the HD trucks and that is the standard 2 speed transfer case or the 2 speed transfer case that has the added 4 high auto feature and they put that transfer case by default into the LTZ and High Country although its optional in the LT and not sure if its available in the work trucks.    The half tons, that is where its been a total mess in my estimation for a few years now with most trucks below the top trim having the single speed transfer case as standard but with the option of having the two speed such as one would get by choosing the Z71 package, however then not being able to get the two speed transfer case with the towing package unless it was a higher trim truck AND had the 6.2 gas so one could combine the towing package gearing diffs with the two speed transfer case. Having said that if its a trail boss package then it gets the two speed transfer case but not necessarily able to get the tow package as it would depend on trim level and engine chosen. Believe me, people have bought the GM half tons assuming "of course it will have a two speed transfer case" only to find out after when they really pay attention to what they now own .... crap, there is NO low range !.    I don't believe Ford or Ram have gone that way yet with their half tons but like I say its been a few years now that GM has done this with the half tons.
