Well I got everything today, the part number for the hood hinges are wrong, it's for a regular aluminum good, not the steel hood. I still have to find the HD hood spring part number The springs are way bigger in the HD.

You also don't need the 84097791 or 84097792 as it's the same that's on the truck already.

That does look amazing. I love all the chrome with the silver truck. Just looks amazing. Would be cool if this was an option from the factory on 1/2 tons.

Ok, so I got my good painted (I'm a painter)

And it seems there is some weird thing going on with the part numbers. We ordered new HD springs, the ones listed in the beginning won't fit. The HD hood hinges are longer and the bolt holes are spaced a farther apart than 1500s. It we got in 2 sets with the same part number that are different.... Pretty dumb on Gm's part.

I still haven't got the air box.

Also keep in mind it's not a perfect fit, the HD grills have a slightly different shape at the grill. It's just slight and not really noticeable but it's there if you are looking.

Either way, thanks to the op, it looks great on our trucks, I had lots of people stoping by to take a peek lol

I guess it would fit the 2014-15 better, bc it's the older style. Any one doing one of these?

I don't know what's different but this exact hood on a 2500 we had in for repair is perfect and on my 17 has a slightly bigger gap around the middle bends of the hood that would be impossible to adjust to fit.

It's pretty damn close though. Close enough that I'd fully recommend doing it. I was out tonight and had 3 different people come up and ask me about it.

It's metal. Yes I have a cold air intake so It worked out.

How does the air from the top and center of the engine bay affect the intake on the front right corner?

If you intake is an open style, it will suck air from everywhere. The hot air has no where to go.

man... bad ass guys.... trucks look awesome!

I love this look!

 

Curious... did you have some visual vibration at higher speeds? Around 80-85 on my OE hood, I can see some vibration in the hood in the back towards the cowl, where the little lip comes up.

 

Since the HD hood rises up instead of drops down, wondering if this may be different

Okay, who's gunna do it on a Silverado next??

Could you provide the correct part numbers. The ones that I have are the ones on my invoice and knowing how bad the guys at the parts department are I'm not surprised that they are wrong. But as far as parts go they are not the same ones that I removed from my truck hinges and springs are bigger. I ordered everything using a vin out of one truck that they had in stock but it was a headache dealing with the parts people. They were no help. And kept ordering wrong parts so that might explain why the numbers don't match.

I have a Volant cold air intake just removed the cover on it for the air to go in.

Ya the hinges part numbers are right, the ones I got were labeled with those numbers but were 1500 hinges. The 2500s are bigger. In my case I just went to the parts room and found another set of 2500 ones and they had the same part number, so someone at GM messed up lol.

My springs are not here yet, I will take a pic of them with part number when I get them this week. The 1500 springs are psychically too small and won't attach to the 2500 bracket. The 2500s springs are a gold Color and twice the size.

Thank you. The springs that I got aren't gold but they are bigger than the ones I removed and bolted on with no problem. But I am interested to know if the ones that you are getting are different.

    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
