Hey guys I seen some cheap but good looking z71 4x4 emblems online that come in different color trims. Wondering if anyone has applied them to do their vehicle?

I have an All Terrain z71 but no emblems indicating that other than the All Terrain badges.

Why, are you afraid people think it might be a 2wd or something?

 

Being down in Texas I have seen tons of trucks adding 4x4 emblems (even on Denali's) to increase their alpha status, one guy on here even added it on his tailgate to "get the point across" and another has an aftermarket license plate saying 4x4 on his Denali.

 

Do what you think looks best, it will look like any other GMC fender badge or Chevy bed side badge you see running around. Probably cheap enough on ebay you could replace them every few years if they fade or peel...

Where as most people on the forum are removing those, someone is looking to add it.

 

I agree with amxguy though, other than the standard placement of those emblems that GM puts on themselves, i find it extra corny and funny.

I don't care for any alpha status or if people think my s*** is 4x4 or not I personally like the way certain badges look. I'm just curious if anyone's tried it. Edited by Andrewhtx

I Debadged my truck of all the factory and removed the Z71 stick from the box, and put Z71 badges by the mirror similar to how the GMC badges are and one where my LT badge was. have got alot of compliments on it

I'll be putting these ones on when winter is over and peeling the current ones, liked how they said Off road in the lower corner better

You guys really confuse me when badges are changed and added. Just about the time I'm getting familiar with the styles and placements I see another debadge or add-on I haven't seen before and have no clue what year or model I'm looking at! !

 

The only debadging I've done is the removal of those vinyl dealer advertising stickers they add on the tailgate. They even put one on right under the cab high stop light black piece. If you catch 'em early they peel off quite easily.

I added a z71 emblem to the grill on my 2014 all terrain. About $20 from my local gm dealership.

Yep I removed the dealers sign and license plates off my truck before I made it out of their state

 

This badge looks kinda bland and I was hoping to find something that looks nicer to go with the truck and if I do I most likely will change it out.

So I read a few posts on. Here about adding badges. I just received mine from Amazon. Look and feel like good quality.  I'm taking off the red Z71 and replacing it w a black one. Also adding  black badges on the fenders. I will post pictures later. Thx for reading.

      2001 GMC Sierra - Banging feeling in steering wheel

      By txab · Posted

      Without knowing how bad your banging is, one suggestion is the intermediate steering shaft on the steering wheel. These used to be a problem on 800 and earlier series. The feeling/sound was sometimes described as "clunking" and was felt in the wheel. Also there is a plastic piece in the lower column that is referred to as a bearing. Not your traditional looking bearing though. Your ball joints, bushings and tie rods or steering rack (if equipped) are the main point of issues. You never mention total unit miles, only that you've put 60k on it.   You can search the site for help on the ISS description. Plenty of these have been replaced   https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=site%3Agm-trucks.com+intermediate+steering+shaft&ia=web

      Yes I have is set with the 1mm disk (Minumim Tension), for spring spacing and I raised my truck in the rear 1.5". You can go 2mm  and I think 3mm if you need.Minimum. We are on our way to TN from GA.. My wife is driving and stated she cannot believe  and   stated she can not belive the difference.

      Road Master Active Suspension

      By GAMark · Posted

      Most 1 ton trucks come with the factory overload spring, which need to be removed for installation of RoadActive Suspension. Removing the overload allows proper fitment and ensures the system works as intended. The RAS® Mega-Duty kit will reduce squat and provide significant improvement vs the factory overload spring.

      I wonder as well, why they would send me a text message with links to these suggested procedures totalling over $10,000 without even the slightest hint of how they arrived at these being necessary.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      https://precisionlubrication.com/articles/oil-filter-efficiency/     For them it is a problem of $$$$ and compliance. To cover both they have to lie from the heart.    Government wants low waste oil numbers so the bar needs to be very low on contamination to met that requirement.  Consumer wants cheap maintenance (perceived cost). Again requiring a low bar.  OEM wants high margins at a cost effective warranty rate and lots of repeat customers. More low bar.  Filter manufacture wants the same thing the OEM wants. See the pattern?   Consumers are fickle and also want perfection requiring a HIGH bar. Inconsistent with all of the above. Consumers can be, when the put their minds to it, inquisitive, love winning arguments which requires some useful information to be available to support them. And this is where it gets sticky and the lies begin.    Information needs a solid well grounded point of reference if we are to compare in a useful way. There is a standard for this.  ISO 4548-12. This standard sets the particle size at a specific Beta ratio and darn few are faithful to its intent.    If they don't state the test method they change the particle size or the Beta ratio to hit a perceived favorable standard. They obscure the information in a way as to prevent direct comparisons leaving the consumer with one method. UOA's with an ISO 4406 test result. Pricey and not allot of labs willing to do the work. Lobby work happens everywhere, not just at the seat of government.
