No but but I'm pretty sure I recall him saying it needed a lot of custom fab work to make it fit properly.. it's not like the GMC, they seem to be a bit easier

So you bought all parts online from gmdirect? And also what color did  the hood came in?

I bought mine online and picked it up local. If you can pick it up instead of ship it, you will saves hundreds of dollars. If you buy all the parts at once (hood, insulation, tuning, etc), shipping was over $250. I ended up buying them and picking them up. I bought everything from Quirkparts.com, they had a local warehouse to me.

 

The hood ships primed black.

And you order everything from a 2017 2500 HD? I have a 2014 Gmc 1500 And I’m trying to swap the hood 

there is a different grill on the 2500HD. I already have an 2500HD, so I only needed the hood, insulator, the trim and the plastic piping to the air box. Plus the various nuts/bolts. You will need the HD hinges as well. 

 

There is a post on putting the HD hood on the 1500 and includes the part numbers. Here is the link:

Do any on you know the parts list for the internal components in the hood? (2017 Silverado 2500hd)  I already have the hood and intake vent but Need to know the quanity for all the other parts on the inside so I can order.

by the way....this is going on a 2016 Silverado 2500HD. Thanks!

Do you know what the weight difference is? Notice any performance benefit because of the colder airflow or is it purely aesthetic with your truck.

    • HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.      
    • I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it. 
    • So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29. 
    • Any grease on the stud threads of any kind?   Wheel studs should have NOTHING on them for proper torquing and so the nuts don't back off.     Are all of the mating surfaces clean?  So wheel, rotor and hub?     We've had plenty of trucks at work with that wheel, this is a first to me.  Makes me think they've got a lube tech putting anti-seize on all the wheel studs or some kind of grease, and they need to stop doing that.  To have 11 other trucks with the same exact problem.      
    • I was a Chevy guy for years, then switched to GMC because I liked the looks better.  I'm actually thinking I like the Chevy looks better than GMC for the first time in a lot of years.   One thing I know for certain, the new GMC dash is hideous!  Chevy wins this one!
