Hey guys I have a salvage truck. Have had zero major issues but recently I decided to do some upgrades. Put in Anzo lights, tailights and HID kit and LED bulbs. I also got a mesh grille insert for a 2014-15 z71 "all models". Long story short it doesn't fit, I did some research and it looks like the 2014 LTZ has black inserts? Mine are chrome so now I'm wondering what grille they slapped on! lol Thanks!

I'm curious as to see how the interior looks and the kind of mirrors. (Signal lights, auto dimming, power folding. Stuff like that)

Mirrors are power folding, dimming and the LED turn signal on them. Stock I'm assuming. I got the truck fully inspected at Chevy dealership before purchase. I live in San Diego so right by the border. These guys from Mexico buy up all of these salvage vehicles at auction and take them into Mexico for body work. These guys work some magic and then bring it back stateside to sell for profit. If you're mechanically and electrically inclined it's a no brainer. At least for me it was..

 

I think I might have found it...

Now I'm wondering if it just didn't fit because of that chrome insert...Hmm

Stock for an LTZ. (Jealous)

 

Well if it's just an insert, it should just come off/out. Just got to find the clips.

Ya but the insert I bought doesn't even cover the opening. I think they might have sent the wrong product. I hate purchasing off of Ebay! I've already messaged the seller twice and have heard nothing. I never use Ebay but I could not find these inserts on Amazon. Lame...

That is the Z71 grill you have, I had a 15 midnight edition and it had the same type of grill but had more black paint then chrome only the bars were chrome. I'm guessing they sent you the wrong product

You got the 2015 LTZ Z71 grille (Im assuming thats all chrome and not body matched paint in a few spots). 2015 were all chrome and the 14s were black/chrome. LT Z71's were all black with chrome boarders both years. Pm me if you wanna sell that stock grille after you get mesh one situated. Good luck.

Well the product I ordered is for a 14/15 z71 so they must be the same grille size. I'm pretty certain they just sent me the wrong part. I'll be using my grille. Just getting the inserts that fit and then plastidip the chrome. That way I can peel it off if I ever want to switch the look again. Here is a shot of what I'll be doing...

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By 2017Z · Posted

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, the key seems to be with the half tons that if it has the Z71, then it definitely has the two speed. What got me was that the two speed AND the lower geared towing package option could not be chosen together the last few years unless it was mated up to the 6.2. Want the 3.0 duramax and 3.73 tow gears ... nope, can't get the two speed transfer case ( neighbor son realized that after he had bought his used 3.0 half ton .. where the frick is the low range ? ! ).    I am still unsure which truck series, the half ton or the HD truck that the original poster is referring to for sure other than yes his question is in the HD section of this forum but that doesn't guarantee the question got asked in the right section.
