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.

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

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.

5.3 or 6.2?

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.

      Gas fill door

      By newdude · Posted

      Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
