I went with aftermarket ones. they are hard plastic unlike the gm ones in the front which are harder to clean imo. easy install and great fit...

Can you post the link from where you purchased

Took me 30 min both sides didn’t take wheels off  I have a trailboss so I’m sure the  2inch lift helped and I purchased the OEM ones from the dealer $160.00

These things are cool looking.  I didn't realize that such a product existed.

 

I may get the Husky version for my new Custom Trail Boss:

I wonder if they will help with keeping road salt off of some important places?

Stupid road salt (especially the liquid brine) caused the death of my last truck.....

 

I'm also going to try some of that spray-on oily stuff for the underbody.  I have to try something to help the truck survive.  I guess that will include doing winter underbody washdowns periodically.

Question: I ordered the liners for a 2020 standard cab 2500HD. The part number shown on the accessories website is 84496084. I received part number 84496085. What is the difference? The description on the instruction notification says, "Heavy Duty Trucks Rear Wheel Liners." 

 

The instruction notification also says to request the service instructions sheet from the dealer. They are closed now. I have used the search engine to find the instructions online without luck. If someone has access to the appropriate accessories manual I'd really like to install them before heading out to work tomorrow. If not, no worries, I'll just do it after work.

So I also want the rear liners. Called my dealer and they tell me that yes, you can buy the liners but gm no longer installs them as at either the dealership or the factory. So, to my understanding and my reps understanding, yes I can buy them but, i have to install them myself

Is it a real pain in the arse to install them?

I installed the Husky liners and wished I'd purchased the stockers because the Husky liners required lots of mods. After reading this thread, it looks like even the stockers can be a pain to install.  I did pull the wheels on my Husky install because the increased access made things easier.  No matter which one you choose, liners really help the look of a white truck.

      No low range 4 x 4

      My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions.

      summer road trips in the 2026 2500HD

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that.

      Ac not keeping up

      By Aimatdeer · Posted

      Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
