I looked at their website earlier they do have one for the new Sierra’s

 

Has anyone installed one of these on a Sierra?  Pics? I bought an "open box" one on Amazon for $48, but haven't installed it yet.

One of the reviews I read was a complaint about wind noise. Anyone on here with that problem?

Can’t thank you enough on the wiring pics! Looks sharp and has minimal noise on my 2020 Trail Boss.

Thank you! I needed to make it different than the others out on the road. Rough country makes both the brackets and the recovery shackles. Let me know if you have any problems tracking them down. I had to do some digging for the shackles.

Looks like the textered matte black finish on the one above. Do they offer the smoke clear/gloss black in one of these?

Yah i would like one in gloss as well to match the grill and bumper. Looks like they make colour match so yes, gloss black.

Hey everyone, was hoping someone could help me with this install. First, I can't pull out the wiring harness behind the driver side headlight. I got the red pull tab to come out, but can't pull the harness out. Any tips to get it off or is my only option to remove the grill to better access the headlight? My second thought was to use a piggyback connector on the fog lamp fuse, #49. Im clueless when it comes to electrical, so I'm not sure if that would even work? Are there any other ideas to wire it more simply? Thanks

I removed the headlight bulb and tapped into that harness. It was much easier than trying to reach the entire harness at the bottom of the headlight. The posi lock connectors and exisiting wiring can tuck in behind the bulb and then everything gets covered by the large rubber flapper.

      What did you do to your "other" car (aka musclecar) today

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I remember watching one of the auctions on TV. It just happened that they had two little red express trucks. My brother bought one new in 1979, still has it. So I hung on to watch them cross. The retro redone example brought more bids and went for more money than the original one did. My brother has redone his 3 times and raced it. He’s now in the process of making more tame for cruising.

      I always upgraded the suspension and steering components - bushings and ball joints, and had older cars that I could out-corner ANY modern car with. I used to be able to take my '78 Cutlass on off-ramps at stupid speeds and make the sharp MA corners without even squealing the tires. So much fun. My '72 El Camino must've had work done by the previous owner, since that thing seemed to handle even better than the '78.   I think the suspension & steering on the '72 was much more advanced than the '64, so that probably just made a good system even better.   I'm the same way with vehicles. I hate having to worry about the paint on my '93 W250 Cummins. I'm not used to that, lol.   https://postimg.cc/mzKr55sY

      BEAUTIFUL!! That a Cutlass F85? Or 442? My side-ID skills are lacking thanks to failing memory, lol. Love that color & year, too!   Yeah I was never big on entering my own stuff, but I always liked seeing what everyone had, the rare models, and what's been modified. That was always fun. These days I have barely enough time to do what needs to be done at home.    Oddly enough, here in MA there are more car shows than ever in history! You'd think up here it would be dead, but it's bigger than EVER!          Took the 940 for its maiden voyage with the carburetor. At first I couldn't get out of the yard! This originally had the "Bosch" system (our other 940 has Regina - single fuel pump in fuel tank, and space-age-looking ignition coil on driver's fender) - that has dual fuel pumps. One in the tank, and one under the center left of the vehicle. I had unplugged the external one thinking I wouldn't need it with the carburetor ... but the way I have the pressure regulator hooked up, 90% of the fuel volume is going back to the fuel tank, so cranked all the way down, the regulator is only supplying a hair above 3.5 PSI to the carb. Turns out the in-tank pump (15 PSI alone, instead of 45) couldn't handle the load. Plugged it back in and went for a rip. Ran great!   Throttle response is always amazing with carburetors. ZERO delay that no FI system can reproduce. Also fires up in half the crank rotations as before. Low end power was DRAMATICALLY improved. There was an ongoing lean issue with the FI that I got tired of figuring out, so this is a MASSIVE improvement! Above 50 MPH on hills it feels SUPER weak, though. This is more than likely due to the timing not being advanced enough by the computer, since it believes there are multiple failures. I can live with that through the winter. Will keep me from passing slowpokes where I shouldn't and getting speeding tickets at least. 😁

      I like driver quality. I bought a 64 elcamino a few years ago. All original as it turned out. I didn’t know at the time. I made a low ball offer and got it. Black on black factory air 4 speed. It drove like a school bus. It had been awhile I had forgotten just how bad the old cars drove. So I planned on making it more of a retro ride. I would drive it to work sometimes. My brother liked to build cars, I liked to drive them race them. So he noticed the canister oil filter and open blow by tube. He checked the numbers. All original. 327, 250 hp close 4 speed, posi rear end. I put it on eBay made a tidy profit. I didn’t want the responsibility or headache. My wife already had a pristine collector vehicle. It lives in the climate controlled garage. I really don’t care what it is. I like to feel the sensation of speed. Let someone else have the responsibility. I’m too OCD. It used to drive me crazy. I can appreciate people who like to take the responsibility. I’m glad they do. I’ll look and remember back to those days. I’ll jump in the wife’s Genesis to get gas for her. Get my sensation of speed and be happy for awhile.
