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

Thinking about doing the same - except I’d be replacing a LoMax, but basically same as Bakflip. Any extra insight or tips? What was your motivation?

The main thing is I want to run crossbars and the bakflip wasn’t a great option for that, I got some bars that worked with it but it wasn’t exactly what I wanted. I also had some trouble at first and the cover rubbed some paint off my cab from being in the up position. I got new rubber strips for it and it’s fine now, but I really liked the sliding cover, no drill design of the retrax and the rail system for adding bars. My only gripe is the drainage tubes that came with it don’t work for the holes in the bed near the cab. There are holes in the floor of the cab but the tube is too large, I have to widen the holes when I get a chance. Overall, both are great covers depending on your needs!

Added 2.5" front level kit and a 2" rear block lift. Love the new stance! Made plenty room for some 33's now.

35 12.50 20 bfg km3s, removed the mud flap brackets, pulled the liner back with a zip tie and no rub.   Also tinted corner lights and mirror lights.

Any other mod for this set up? Spacers, level. No type of rub at all? Thanks, looks great.

Up front, Icon coilovers set to 3 inch, rough country uca's. Removed the mud flap brackets and pulled the liner back.  On the rear just 1.5 blocks and bilsteins.  Now these are trailboss replica wheels with a +15 offset. So that helps keep the tire off the uca's.

How's the ride quality with he ICON coilers? I am looking at ordering their kit, but can't seem to find much info on the GM/Chevy  installs. I found a video of a guy putting them on his ram, road bumps and trains tracks appeared to be absorbed by coilers. I don't do much off roading with my AT4, so the I won't be getting the reservoirs.

They are firmer than the rest, fox or king will ride smoother. Its firm but handles real well. I don't have the reservoirs either, mines just the stage 1.  The less preload the smoother tho, thats why mines at 3 inch and not 3.5.

 

Installation is pretty easy, not much too it. Make sure u do some sort of control arms tho.

Added 6 3/4” led grill lights. 4 up top and 2 in the tow hook recesses. Went with red to match the red trim on my AT4. Ran a separate harness and switch to avoid messing with any factory electrical. I don’t have any night pics yet.

2" SST

285/75/18 Ridge Grapplers on stock 18" AT4 wheels

Surprised that i have zero rubbing anywhere. Tire is close to the control arm but has enough clearance.

 

Started the install on my radar detector.

Need to order the upfitter parts so i can have it switched and all wires hidden.

Not only Mn and Wi. Most likely that all states will follow USDOT, which says, uh-uh.

      2020 Silverado 1500 8speed gm needs to recall transmission

      By Sdid · Posted

      I have A 2020 1500 5.3 8 speed. LTZ. Transmission problems since 60,000 miles. Started when I go to store in morning to get my morning coffee before work leave truck running get back in put it in drive/ rev no movement step on gas a little slams into gear. Put in neutral step on gas little shake then put in gear and gose.  Shut truck off start .. ok now at stop light stop truck after a few seconds feel a little kick if that doesn’t happen stuck in 3/4 gear shut truck off wait few seconds and start usually ok again. If you down shift manually ok as long as you get into 1st before stop. If not it kicks . I WANT A NEW TRANSMISSION. Now I want a new truck it just hit 80,000 IDK IF ILL BUY CHEVY CAUSE THEY STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM AND REFUSE TO RECALL . Oh I’ve changed the fluid and filter 3 times now. And yes used mobile 1 not ac/delco cause it’s not meeting the requirements that mobile is did use ac/delco filter

      Of course refrain from political debate but I myself have very dismal hope for what is all going on up here every where we turn so I nodded my head when I saw this joke.

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

      By Atlas · Posted

      While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.

      SERCICE ESC message?

      By No F-bdy Bs · Posted

      Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage.
