I read that you opened the dash to install the 3usb charging system.  How difficult was that?  You must have some expertise with these type of installs as tapping into the existing systems, scare me a bit, lol.

Nope. 

 

I do this once every 4 years with a new truck.  It literally takes 10 minutes to take the whole thing apart and have it laid out to work on. 

 

7 8mm screws and a whole lot of body clips to pop loose.  Way too many in my opinion.  

 

The toughest part is getting that bottom trim piece off.  For a piece of plastic that small it had 5 body clips on it.  It doesn't need that many to hold it in.  I removed the center body clip when I reinstalled it to make it easier to remove later on.

Grabbed a 19 Trail Boss Custom about a week ago. Wanted a strong base for an Overland build out. Love it so far. But a little hard to find Overland Parts. file1-16.thumb.jpeg.5fb9fab20cd145427964fb294896f740.jpegfile-25.thumb.jpeg.9a1174a7d27f18fbe10baf1fcf366f45.jpeg

Well...traded the '14 in, which was a GREAT truck.  I never experienced the new model year issues that others had with that body style...

But there are things the T1 body has that you cannot mod into those trucks (interior cab size, AC vents, etc)

So, here you go:

2019 RST CC Std bed Z71 with convenience pkg II.  Good mix of options.

Hey z1boss,

 

Just a heads up I've got a red trail boss lt as well and you can get the "Silverado" and "LT" nameplates in black too from the chevy accessory website.  Check it out.

    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that. 
    • "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
