Ran a USB type c cable to the arm rest. Fits my note 10 plus like a glove. Phone will not lay flat plugged in where the wireless charger is so this works much better and is neater.

How'd you go about prying the bottom of the lid of the console? Is it similar the '16?

Just to clarify, you did the GM 2 inch lift from the TB/AT4; then did a 1 inch front leveling kit? Looks great.

Whose 1 inch level did u use? Motofab?

Those Nitto RG’s spec out to 34.74” diameter and 11.42” wide. Any rubbing at all??

using a spacer?

thanks

It is the Trail Boss lift that I had installed along with a Traxda Kit #406052 leveling kit.  They used the lower spacer and one of the plates on the top for each side.

 

There is absolutely no rubbing with the OE wheels and no spacers.  It is a perfect fit.  There is around 1/4" to 3/8" space between the tires and the UCA.

Yes just like the last generation. Bottom cover just pops off. I started at the bottom and worked my way around. Just push the latched so the hooks retraked after you get all the tabs to pop out.

Bought some 2019 Denali take offs. Wife doesn’t know yet...but since they are the same finish as my factory 20”s, I’m going to install and see how long it takes. Might get away with one here. ??

I do this ALL THE TIME.  My wife is not very observant.  On second thought, that's probably exactly why she married me in the first place.

Now do you REALLY think wives are that dumb not to notice? I can tell you what's going to happen as it might take weeks or months she is going to want something and talk to you about it and IF you say no or I don't think so she WILL then say " well if you don't want me to get this then what about these rims and tire you bought awhile back" your adding a bullet to her chamber to fire back. ?

Replaced my chrome mirror caps with the black ones from GM. Love the way they look.

I added vinyl to the hood to emphasize the scoop. Harder to see on mine In the pics bc the blue Is so dark, but it still stands out.

I like that!

Installed new factory color matched mirror covers. Such a little thing makes a big difference IMO. The Iridescent Pearl is something else in the sun. 8533f3204f175bb565c64ae41033ab04.jpgb4ae027e2eec9bedd69218b5115b96df.jpg

The only ones I am aware of are the AVS Tail Shades Taillight Covers, Part Number: 33637 for 2019-2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. Hopefully the OP will confirm because the ones on his truck look nice.

    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • That computer lies!
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.    
    • I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
