Anyone looking for a set of wheel skins?   They are molded covers for the RST wheels.   I am selling my second set. They are brand new in the box, never used or installed as I have a set already.  I've had them on all winter and they have stayed put and held their shine through the salty roads.  I love them on my truck!!!    Better than plastidip!!!  

 

$75 and I'll go half in on shipping.   PM me

Just got my 3" lift installed. Superlift w/upper control arms. Bilstein shocks in the rear. Couldn't be happier. Rides incredible. Looks much better now. Before and after pics.

Got a good deal on some 2.5 bypasses and threw them onto my truck. Took about 15 minutes a side to get them bolted on and then charged with nitrogen. Already had the bypass hoop welded onto the frame/coilover bucket when the dirt king kit was installed. The extra damping is definitely noticeable and gives a better ride. The coilover was valved pretty soft to let a bypass do most of the work.

Added some fog lights that the wife got me for Xmas. Amazon Specials but fir in the factory location, adjustable, LED and the wiring seems good. I wired them into the fuse box to run with the headlights. I think I have it running correctly now.

I took delivery! 2021 SLE. Just had katzkin installed. I plan on removing the running boards tonight. I have a ProComp front spacer I bought from Dylan199 on this site. I also have a Speed Turtle EZ flash module to install this evening as well

Installed the illuminated GMC Emblem. Sadly, I broke a couple of clips on the grill hence the zip ties. I put epoxy behind the emblem where those clips were to help hold it in place. I have decided, playing with the grill is not fun at all. I am not 100% sure I got the clips in all the way where the painted section is between the grill and the headlight assy. They dont seem to look odd but still not 100%. Either way, its working and doesnt "appear" to be anything off center etc. Next weekend the AS/S disabler should arrive and Ill put that on.

Apparently I did not get the two clips back in on the bumper cover section between the grill and headlight assy. Anyone know how to get those two clips on each side back in by chance? Dealer can look at it on Wed and said it may cost around $150 for labor. If its something simple and stupid I am missing to do it myself I would greatly appreciate the advise. Thanks.

Did you take grill off to do emblem? Just curious

I did not. In a video I had seen it showed removing the top shroud and 4 bolts and popping it out a bit. Unfortunately, it pops out those clips. No video mentions it so it doesnt say how to get them back in. I tried everything I could but the angle was just wrong to get it in correctly.

    • One of the few things I enjoyed about my time in the midwest was taking off on weekend drives. Unlike home, where we are boxed in by mountains and water, those rules don't apply to the inland plains. Roads connect and sprawl everywhere. While Minnesota is flat, it's not completely featureless and there are fast moving rural roads with curves and slight elevation changes. I used to relish heading out in a particular direction with no set destination, no curfew, and weaving through little townships, wherever the roads would take me. Along farms, lakes, or through the deciduous trees... It was beautiful in its own way, and the seasons were so distinct there. Fall drives yielded amazing shows of color and contrast. Summer drives rewarded with the and amber evening glow of the prairie (and lots of juicy bugs).    I do a lot of that here in my home state too. But it's much less mysterious/intriguing. I've traveled most roads in the region, and every road that's fun to drive within a good radius of my house. But every drive, even on the same old roads, is still enjoyable. I know where I can lean hard into the throttle or really throw the car into a curve. There are exercise loops for when I just need to keep certain cars limber, and much longer routes to settle in and enjoy a drive and put some miles on. All the mountains and water make for some really awesome roads for spirited driving. But not all my driving is spirited, for example, that's not really enjoyable in my pickup or this Blazer (that's still here...).   Sometimes a good drive is followed by a ritualistic wash before tucking the car away...
    • 'GMAuthority' is reporting the 2027 HD's will have the L8S 6.6L gasoline V-8.  There was some talk here about the L8S awhile back.  Not sure what changes it will have now as it seems the 2027 emissions regulations have changed from what was originally proposed.  The big question will be is L8S just a stopgap for the last 2 years of the current T1 HD platform or will it carry forward to the next generation 2029 T1-2 HD's?    I assume the L8S will still be a Gen. V engine. 
    • New engines will still be using DEF. You just won't have the limp modes occurring when you run out of DEF now.
    • I am not a NOCO fan for a charger I would leave on a battery 24/7. The reason is, it doesn't really float. It waits until the battery drops to a certain voltage and then charges it back up to 14V. It's better than no charger I guess.
    • I would never do anything but lithium.   If the vehicle is stored, just turn the disconnect off. My batteries are completely disconnected form everything in the trailer when my disconnect is off. Trailers don't always come that way as some still keep the CO/LPG monitor on. When mine is off...it is off.   As far as storage temps, LiFePO4 are good down to -20°C. I would store them in a heated place if it goes below that. You can also get heating mats with a thermostat if power is available.   The way the heaters work, if it's below 0°C, if a charge comes in, it is directed entirely to the heater until the battery gets above 0°C and then it allows the charge to go to the battery.   For my Android tablet I use as a display, I can move it inside my house if I was ever in an area that got super cold.
