First paint correction and seal on the AT4 now that winter is over. This blue looks even better after a clay/polish/seal.

Got the cheap Tiger T1 tonneau cover and I’m impressed! Only took 15 min to install and is surprisingly sturdy.

I have the same one, surprisingly good quality for the price and does the job, keeps everything dry and held up great last winter.

Something interesting is going on with the forum. I don't see any of my posts from yesterday. If, somehow, this is a repost, please ignore it.

For Christmas I got the GM tailgate gap filler. I didn't take pics. It is a very easy install. You only need a T-20 torx bit driver/socket/etc, microfiber rag, and 15-20 minutes.

I also got black plug nuts and wheel locks. These look much better than the chrome lugs nuts do on the black 18" Trail Boss wheels. The black plugs nuts are also a bit longer so they're the same length as the wheel locks.

I also got black Z71 badges for the front fenders. I don't have pics of them yet due to being out of Goo Gone. I ordered a bottle from Amazon, and will have this done in the next few days.

What keypad did you have installed? Is it a GM product?

I have the gm accessory keypad. Installed by the dealer so no idea on the details. Here's the receipt for item code reference.

Just had my shell installed. I created a whole new thread for canopy pictures and questions since I couldn't find one when I was shopping.

This is a Leer 100XR. See my thread for full details.

Installed my Lasfit LED high beam bulbs. Already had the low beams so this completed the set. Very bright and an easy install.

Installed the gm full coverage floor mat in the back of my crew cab. I have the under seat storage which had to remove so the mat fit underneath. The mat then had to be trimmed along the back for the storage to fit back in. It was all pretty straight forward and they look great. It's already helped clean the mess from little kids in the back.

My only issue is a gap between the storage and the mat where crud can gather. I'll find something later to make a gasket with.

Since I had a 10mm deep socket on an extension handy from removing three jack, I used that and a hammer to get the joints to seat really well. I don't think you can do the joints adequately by hand.

There's also a carpet screw on the drivers side of the storage unit that I had to drill a hole in the mat for, sorry no pic.

Do yourself a favor and buy this under seat storage from DU-HA. It is not only larger but eliminates that gap. It's worth the cost.

+1 on the Duha.  Best investment yet.  I had to trim mine a bit in the same spots because of the mats.   I can fit so much stuff in this thing it's insane.  As you can see all my first responder and safety gear on my side, on the other are cables, tow straps, rope, tie downs, tools......

      Exhaust heat while towing!

      By fondupot · Posted

      You can install tailpipes that direct the exhaust sideways vs the OEM one that goes straight back. There are several on the market, do you own research. HOWEVER, you need to make sure the Venturi vents are still intact, otherwise it will throw a engine code. There is a sensor somewhere that detects back pressure on the exhaust. And if it doesn't collect the correct metrics, it will throw the truck into limp mode.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      "Teardown" is complete. Head surfaces are clean and ready, new intake is prepped and ready. Coolant drained and water pump is removed, radiator is removed, new hoses and pump are ready.   The replacement intake is also from a '95 (with I think 260k, the odometer said). Noticeably less pitting where it covers the rear coolant passages. I'm not sure if that's a tribute to more frequent use, more frequent coolant changes/upkeep, or if the intake was machined at some point. But it appears I found a good one.   My coolant hoses were original, and the lower hose still retained the factory spring inside. It's not really rusty, but it's got deposits all over it. Unsure if I should re-install it (will thoroughly clean it first). Someone said hose technology has gotten better since 1995 (has it?) and I don't need the spring. I think modern EPDM is what made those hoses last from 1995-2026, so it's a question of how much suction can the water pump really pull, and will it collapse the hose without a spring?   I'm stopped and waiting for parts, however.   When I first brought the truck home, the fan was intermittently hitting the radiator shroud. I could see someone had monkeyed with the shroud (put a bunch of cardboard as a spacer between the upper/lower shroud halves. Someone said the motor mounts have likely failed and the engine has sagged. I wasn't sure I believed that. The engine is really solid in its mounts: To remove the old intake I *just* nearly permanently welded to the heads with freshly cured RTV and gasket snot two weeks ago, I literally had to use the arms on my lift and a chain with a bolt attached to the intake to pull it loose. It almost picked the front of the truck off the ground before ....scuuuuuuuuuuup.... I could actually hear the gaskets tearing and it broke loose and the whole truck settled back down. Motor barely moved.   SO, those parts I'm waiting on... The lower radiator mounts/bushings had completely failed. The radiator needs to be insulated from the rad support, and the bushings help the rad stand at the correct height. The plastic "baffle" was also destroyed at some point. Someone had attached the shroud to it incorrectly, overlapping a joint that should have been underlapped, creating another suspect issue potentially causing things to hit the fan. Broken tabs, side is busted off, and it's perma-formed/bent where it was jimmied incorrectly.   The baffle? Unobtainum. Long since discontinued from GM, of course. Aftermarket/capa/chinese? Also unobtanium. In GM's infinite wisdom, it appears there are at least two different variations whether the Blazer is 2 or 4 door, and I can't yet tell if they shared the same part with the S-pickups. Plan B, if I can't find a viable used one, will be to create a bracket to re-assemble the critical joint I need to seal a gap with the shroud. But that will bug me, it won't be...perfect.   The water pump bolts appear to have been installed with...plumber's putty. I guess, sure, if it works...? I've found a few "backyard fixes" like that. Someone's been here before....   If I can't find someone to jam bamboo under my fingernails to fill my free time this week I think I'll install the driver's power window motor and replace the rear door speaker that's inop. I've got a genuine GM "9.5" ohm working replacement. Why GM used a non-standard resistance....nevermind. Of course they did, you can get more sound from a cheap factory amp that way.   And the saga goes on...

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By glenn27 · Posted

      // Thank you, also for your  response. More information is always good. This 2013 GMC is most likely my 'forever truck"-I'm 77 and retired...and truck only has 42K on it-very clean-so I try to keep it that way.  Tks again for your  response- glenn

      Alternate wiring for Kicker sub with Bose system. (DO THIS)

      By smooth68 · Posted

      I started my install this weekend. Everything was pretty straight forward but I ran into one issue with running power through the firewall. The nipple grommet on my High Country already has a small harness running through it - has anyone else ran into this issue? And on the engine bay side, does the wire basically just penetrate the factory wiring boot? I did this on my '22 Trail Boss and it seems much easier but thats been a few years. My other thought would be possibly drilling a new hole adding a rubber grommet just to the lower left of the factory hole. Thoughts?   Has anyone used a T-harness off the Bose amp and obtained power from there? It seems a little odd that such a small amp needs 3 power leads

      By glenn27 · Posted

      ///// Ok--Thanks for that info--I could not find yesterday when I looked for the specs on that NAPA filter what I wanted. Their website is not very user friendly. I buy all teh filters for  our three vehicles once or twice a year. Have always run NAPA Gold on everything I own....I buy it thru my Son's account for his business-which he has a Heavy Equipment repair shop-one reason he uses NAPA so much-they have such a full line of coverage for just about anything/anywhere- He gets s  good discount because of volume bought. Anyway-Thank you -Sir for your response.   glenn
