Finally some more projects.

Installed a dash cam, have to get some photos of that one.

New fog lights. Went with Whelen par28c fog lights that are normally found on your everyday police car. They fit nice with the factory trim.

Very cool [emoji1312][emoji1312]. Can they strobe? How’s the night time light projection?

They could if I wanted them too but I have them set just for steady burn. They do what I intended, it’s very bright, very wide but not super far. A good solid fog light. The ones in my grill give me the distance for driving.

Well, I wanted a headache rack. But I didn’t like the $$ of what’s commercially available so... make my own. Out of wood to check the angles and my general idea. Then start the metal work.

Hey Jflan, solid looking truck. I am new to the site. I also have 15’ Sierra. I want to upgrade my stock suspension. Wondering if I could get the details from you on your suspension upgrades?

 

Fox 2.0 coil overs why did you go with them? Are you happy with the ride? 

 

UCA’s was it recommended to upgrade these with the coil overs? What brand did you go with?

 

What did you do to the rear suspension? Any shock upgrades? 

 

Keep up the good work.

Thanks! I traded it in for a 19 AT4!

As for your questions, I like fox so figured it go for them. I did enjoy the ride, I though it handled bumps and potholes way better then stock. I did have the 2.0’s on my 2010 Silverado first and they also fit my 2014, I put a lot of miles on them.

I went with Cognito UCA’s, the ball joint style. I did not have UCA’s on my 2010 and I had balls joint problems so when I transferred the 2.0’s to my 2014 I did the UCA’s. It kept the drive shaft angle way better.

The rear was a 1” over stock block. This kept the rake but it wasn’t as aggressive as stock, and I got the fox 2.0 shocks for the back.

My suggestion, save up and do it all at once, it’s like a whole different truck after. It’s not cheap, but definitely worth it.

Jflan, Aw man so jealous, those At4s look good. 

 

Ok awesome thank you for the quick response and info. I would like to do it all at once like you suggested.  I’ve been having some vibration issues and poor ride so I’m hopeful that takes care of it. Bonus of making the truck look good. Let me know how you like your AT4. Who knows I might trade in someday.

Love it so far! A couple annoyances but that’s always to be expected.

      2019+ Brake failure, it's complicated

      By needafix · Posted

      I'm not sure if this should be a new topic, let me know if it's out of place. This my first post. Thanks 85077522 - AC Delco GM Genuine Parts Brake Master Cylinders. Anyone else had to replace this brake master cylinder yet. I didn't do any brake work, it looks like new parts and I've had the truck for about 4k miles, 119k total miles.  When it started to throw codes I did the calibrations with a bidirectional scanner and got the codes to clear but they came back so I did the routine; base bleed, automated bleed and final base bleed. All that with Bosch ES16-32N fluid (please look it up). That seemed to fix it but 100ish miles later it failed again so I ran the same process but with a pressure bleeder this time and got the same results, fixed for 100ish miles. The original fluid looked bad and I thought I got most of it out, it could've been the wrong fluid. The codes; P25A2, C05B0-00, C2A1B. I can get them to clear but not for long. The C05B0 indicates a leak in the front circuit (which is bone dry) so I'm thinking of doing the bleed process on that front again today and I don't know if that's taboo to just do the front but at this point it seems like it's worth the try anyway. The new master cylinder/module unit is supposed to get here today. But now I'm pretty much convinced this install is over my head. I've called several shops and some mobile guys that I know but this thing is like radio active material, scary wise. I did get 2 local shops say they should be able to do it, one says he has the SPS2 programing capability. And with the battery disconnected is there supposed to be pedal resistance, mine is to the floor, then if I pump it I can get some resistance. I had a panic stop prior to this issue which may have contributed from what I read. And on the first attempt to bleed and hydraulic test the scanner listed things to look for and one was any gaps between the pad and rotors which I did notice on the RF corner and I removed the outer pad (where the gap was) cleaned it and the hardware and didn't see a gap after that but will re-check it. I read that if pushing the caliper pistons back then you're supposed to open the bleeder so as to not push fluid backwards into the abs module or it will damage it. If that's true then that's also a possibility from the previous owner having the brakes changed before I got it. I'm using an XTool ip500 scanner. Any suggestions, questions and comments welcome.

      Next Friday will be my 6 week point from my right knee replacement.  The surgeon says it will be fine if I choose to drive after this checkup.  I know I could drive now but best to do as my surgeon (and my wife) tell me.  Richard compared being 62 to 72.  I remember when I was in my early 60's I was experiencing slow but regular decline in my mobility.  Thanks to good medical support,  i continued to fight the speed and spread of this decline. During my 60's I worked on non-surgical methods and just when I turned 70, my orthopedic surgeon recommended joint replacements.  In a little over a year, I had one shoulder and both knees replaced.  This hasn't been a terribly fun experience, but worth the discomfort as my future mobility health trajectory has reversed.  It is a treat to now be watching my mobility. balance and confidence steadily improve!
