Qwank's 2017 Regular Cab Z71 build

[lovelessjl]

I picked up a new air compressor for my garage yesterday.  60 gallon two stage from Harbor Freight.  I scored it for $250 during their parking lot sale.  45 minute drive home in the back of my truck. 

 

Gotta love it when your hot rod can still haul more than just ass lol

They give you a plastic insert that goes in the slot for the original piece's retaining clip and a long screw. It holds good, I have it screwed in right now but just the boost gauge is installed

I've never seen a right hand drive full pillar pod for a Silverado. Why can't you just use the stock pillar?

oh ok, I see what you mean now.  You're just gonna have to use a long self tapping screw into the be pillar I guess.  Then you're going to see the screw.  That's what I don't like about this pod.  The body shop gave me some extra paint so when I'm done with it all I'll paint the screw head.

Can you get a picture of the insert and where in the pillar area itself the insert goes? I just pulled a pillar off and i have no idea where it would go. Also what thread is the insert and bolt

Here's a pic off the install instructions.  It just goes in the slot for the top clip. The screw is a long sheetmetel screw.  I'll measure it next time I pull it out.
