Hello fellow 2019 owners!

 

i have not heard anyone discuss spray in bed liners for their new rigs. Do you have one on your ‘19 Silverado or Sierra? If so did it come factory or did you do line-x?

 

If yours did come from the factory already sprayed can you include a picture?

 

If you went aftermarket, how was your experience? Were you worried because of the lights in the bed ETC....

 

 

Thanks All,

 

Big E

Don’t have one myself but am curious about the factory spray in liner.  Is it as good as the aftermarket professional spray in liners?

I’ve got a Sierra AT4 with the spray in bedliner. The quality is good and I like the AT4 logo in the front wall of the bed. I’ve had a Linex after market liner in a previous truck. The quality and texture of the factory liner seems similar to Linex.

 

The only issue I see on mine is a few frayed spots along front edge where the bed meets the cab. Looks like it was masked and when tape was removed the edge didn’t come out perfect. If I decide to fix it, I think I can clean it up fine with a razor blade.  You have to really look closely and from the right angle to see the issue. 

 

I think having the Chevy emblem, AT4, Denali, etc embedded in front wall is a nice look. I’m not sure if you can get that with aftermarket. If you can get the emblem in the front wall of bed with an aftermarket application, it would just be a price/convenience question.  Quality seems very similar to aftermarket.

Mine came with the factory bedliner. I had LineX in my last truck.  Seems very similar.  The LineX I did the upgraded UV protection one, I think it was a bit shinier than the factory bedliner.  

 

In my new truck with the factory bedliner I also have a couple spots of overspray. I don’t think it’s worth trying to fix.  Most of mine are along the edge near the cab.

I had a LineX in my 14’ and factory liners in my 15’ and 19’. To be honest the quality and durability seems to be the same to me. Having the Bowtie logo in the back of the bed is a bonus. 

 

A couple things to note on the 2019. The tailgate is not sprayed. It has a textured tailgate liner, similar to the WeatherTech Tech Liner.

Also I had an issue with overspray of the liner on my bedside and back of the cab. It came off fairly easy since it was a painted surface.

I wanted to gauge if the factory ones had the logo on the back. Since I am seeing they do I wonder if line x can do that for me?

I would think they could.  If not you could just get a Bowtie and have it put on the front and let them spray over it.

What he said. It’s just a form they stick to the bedside and them cover with the liner. Rhino Liner and LineX both used to regularly do it with their logo’s.

#12-08-51-002H: Spray-in Bed Liner General Information and Repair Procedures - (Jun 29, 2018)
 
Repair Information
 

Bed liner repairs should be handled similar to other body repair and sublet to an appropriate vendor (identified on the website below) or performed by the dealer (if proper equipment and skill set are available). This includes warranty, New Vehicle Damage claims, customer pay and collision repairs. Additional information is provided in this bulletin to clarify the repair process and supplier information.

 

Repairs to the spray-in bed liner fall into small or large categories. This will determine how the repair procedure will be performed. Any damage to the underlying sheet metal must be repaired (including corrosion protection) prior to repairing the bed liner material.

 

Most larger repairs will likely be performed by the approved Ultimate Linings authorized dealer network facilities and submitted as a sublet repair if it is warranty or New Vehicle Damage related. These facilities can be found in the following contact information:

 

www.gmbedlinerrepair.com/

or

1-800-994-0658 (English and Spanish speaking customers only)

All repair information, parts and/or facilities that can perform the repairs are listed in the website.

You sure seem to be right. I know the owners of LineX an I would swear they told me they do the GM OEM work.  Said they built a factory next door to do it. Interesting

 

There is a building one road over where they spray them (at Ft.Wayne).

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

      By Atlas · Posted

      Thanks - I wasn't quite caffeinated this morning. 2:1 makes sense, turning the crankshaft 360 degrees will turn the cam 180 degrees, and had I done that, the cam's dot would be at 6 and the crank's at 12 again.   I went ahead and took the sprocket off anyway, aligned everything dot-to-dot including the balance shaft just for s&g. I'm glad I did because I discovered no Loctite on the timing sprocket bolts. Maybe it's not required, but at only 20 ft-lb torque spec, those bolts aren't in there very tight. Cleaned and reassembled with some thread locker and torqued.   A general observation: Less is more with RTV. If a little doesn't stop a leak, a LOT probably won't, either. RTV is thinly veiled revenge, in a tube...

      The timing marks are ok, that is #1, you can turn it over until they line up and it won't change anything, the crankshaft turns twice for every camshaft revolution, I have always set up SB Chevs as your pic shows using a straight edge

      Someone's been here before.... There is a receipt for a 3-piece timing set, purchased earlier this year.   Is this picture something, or, nothing?   I have the timing cover off and my crank is perfectly TDC and the keyed gear's locating mark is dead on 12 o'clock.   The cam gear locating mark is also at 12 o'clock. Now, I'm not an expert, but all the install guides say the two locating marks should meet and be perfectly aligned when installing a timing set. The mark on the crank should be dead on 12:00 and the cam gear's mark should be dead on 6:00, and both marks should be perfectly vertically aligned.   I believe the timing gear is keyed or has a dowel that ensures it can only be installed on the cam in one position, so I have to believe the cam is out of phase somehow. At the very least, with a triangular bolt pattern, it can only be installed in one of 3 different positions.   Before I pulled the front cover, the truck was running alright, no service engine soon lights except an occasional P0172 / rich condition. Timing -16 timing at idle (should be +16), and total -35% fuel trim, two conditions I haven't been able to figure out.   In related news, my injector tested pretty well, wasn't leaking, but I had it rebuilt anyway, and it's on it's way back to me.         Along with this discovery, the good and bad:   Good: The oil pan seal appears undamaged.   Bad: -The timing cover has been reused, and the positioning dowels have been broken. That could explain some of the leaking. -Some kind of white paste or grease was used to try to seal the oil pan seal and timing cover (since wiped off..). -Then, someone globbed silicone all over the front of the cover and also buried the ckp sensor in it. But, they didn't put any inside the cover or use RTV to try to seal the oil pan seal with the timing cover (good).

      PF63 Oil Filters Going Away?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      The guy that owns K&P filters last I checked in with him has over 300,000 miles on his Dodge base Hemi using his own 35 micron absolute stainless mesh filter from its first oil change.    The GM study I've posted a dozen times shows the relationship in engine life based in multiples of base units, not miles or years. That is the base unit is the number of miles the motor ran using the reference filter efficiency.    The above two paragraphs dismantle anecdotal arguments IF one changes oil often enough to prevent particle formation and the motor is in otherwise good shape. That is not full of silica (no air filter) or suffering a metallurgical issue that is not part of the lubrication discussion. Poor heat treat in example.   Data from UOA's I've reviewed from more than a few engines can show remarkably broad variations in oil cleanliness using the exact same filter over the course of an engines life.     Lastly there is the common sense of it. Wear debris WILL circulate the engine BEFORE it ever sees a filter in route to that filter and WILL harm the pump which NEVER sees filtered oil.    Alpha question then becomes, given the facts, how long do you believe is a reasonable service life from a vehicle you are certain you will not pass down? That is the junk yard will be it's resting place when you're done with it? (the moral issue most don't care about).    Omega question is then how diligent are you prepared to be in general mechanical, air & oil maintenance? Preventing particulates and keeping them sufficiently dilute; preventing the precursors from generation, amalgamation and precipitation.    If I get a good look at the engine bay of a vehicle I have a fair idea of the owners commitment to the inside of the power train. That 30 micron WIX is still more efficient than a sieve.

      It also depends on what criteria someone is using for “best” when talking filters.  Are we going off best efficiency?   Best quality/QC?  Etc. because the two may not mutually exclusive.
