I also added the Westin 4” platinum oval nerf bars to my truck.  I honestly didn’t see the gap in the original pictures when I bought them,  but it’s because the bars go underneath the truck.  Otherwise they look great! These had the best reviews on all the sites so I went with these.  Next time I won’t get 4” bars that go underneath.

Good looking Truck

Well the chrome 6.2L came off the hood and on went the black.  Looks much better.  Also, the sun shade that came with our 2016 Suburban my wife never used so I tried it in the truck and it covers pretty well. Score one for me. :)  That sun shade is heavy, no cheap plastic foil like in the stores. 

 

I also have these black Duramax for sale if anyone is interested.  $30 shipped.

Curious about the black application.  What kind of rubber/paint did you use?  And for the over spray that looks like it would have gone on the paint, how did you get it off?

I didn't paint them.  These are available from shopchevyparts.com    I removed the chrome and put the black in it's place.  They were a reasonable price but the shipping is expensive.

Tape was for alignment purposes

Swapped out the stock Bridgestones for Ridge Grapplers and replaced the red logo center caps with black logo at the same time.

Thanks!

Your truck looks great by the way.

Mine is a 5.3 but I noticed when they upgrade to 20s they slap the same tire size as yours. Guess i could increase my tire size to 33s in the future like yours on my 18s of course and have no rubbing or much sacrafice of power.

Where did you get the gauge pod and how is it hooked up.  That is the one thing i would like to see is what gear I'm in.  At least the F-150's show what gear you are in on the DIC.

hey,

 

I'm the one who make them. you can look me up on FB Block8head Custom vent pods.

Replaced my license plate bulbs with this JDM ebay bulbs. Took about 5 minutes to do so. I has read it was harder than the K2 and it sure is more reduced in space. Found it easier to remove the socket through the top of the hitch space and then to twist back in i snuck in my other hand through the bottom section between hitch and bumper bracket and with both hands i turned the connector back into place. The light difference output is quite eviden. On the above picture you can see the LED on the left and the incandescent bulb on the right.

Did it throw any codes in the dashboard? It looks good.

No codes on the dashboard :)
Will probably get one on the OnStar report as i did on my 17 but no biggy.

    • On my wife's 2020 Blazer (~69000 miles), we started to notice the brakes pulsating at faster speeds. Typically around town you don't notice anything, but highway/interstate driving you will notice it. I decided to pull of the front tires and look at the brakes. I figured with the milage, the pads should be wearing out to their life span, but they actually looked decent. Still with "meat" on them. One pad has a ridge wearing in it, and that same rotor is showing the ridge too. That's not the concerning part...the other rotor appears to have a raised bump on it!  The picture make it look like a pimple! Very odd and strange! NOTE: These are the factory brakes and rotors.   I'm attaching pictures of the front brakes and what they look like ate ~69000 miles.
    • 2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD Custom 6.6 Gas Canadian built Truck  I tried to search for my previous thread on this topic but cant find it so my apoligies  for starting another one    #1   Since we have owned our truck purchased new it has this strange noise after using the remote start function  you press the remote start and you hear it start but right at the end of it starting it almost seems like it wants to start again after the truck is running .   There is no gap in time it is right at the end of the start . Almost sounds like when you have started a car/truck and its running and then you try and start it again and you get that grinding noise ,sort of     #2  You can only hear this if you are standing outside of the truck and near the truck  you cant hear it when you start the truck from inside  the cab . So it may very well be happening when starting the truck that way as in normally    #3   This only happens when it is started after sitting . For how long I don't know but it happens after sitting overnight for sure and it wont do it if you stop the engine after starting and then start it again  I have had it in to the Dealership before concerning this but they did not have the truck  when it was cold to hear it . Now its back in the Dealership left it overnight so they could possibly hear the problem . They said they tried and nothing happened . Well they did not know what they were listening for . I started the truck remotely and BINGO it makes the noise . Oh that sounds weird they say . We need to look into it ! I have left for this week at the Dealership    Does your 2024 2500 HD gas do this ?  Any of you fellas care to take the time and trouble to film this operation from a cold start  so I can hear what your sound like  Really  would like to know if this is anormal sound  Thank You Fellas !!
    • 2026 Z71.  The other day I was backing a trailer into the barn.  The alarm was going off just because the trailer was in the field of the warning sensors when you get too close to something.  For some reason now the warning alarm doesn't work anymore.  It used to go off when I was just normally backing my truck into garage.  I still have the guidelines in the back up camera.  Is there a button or something to push to turn the sound/Alarm on and off?  I have the touch screen in this truck.  There isn't a "P" on the dash except for the parking brake.  I can't find anything in the touch screen under settings or vehicle.  Thank you in advance.  
    • Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra. 
    • I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.
