I have a 2016 suburban that has one 120v auxiliary AC outlet in the rear of the center console (accessible from the 2nd row seat).  Are there additional locations that the AC outlets can be installed in the suburbans?  If so, would there already be factory wiring to these locations?  I am hoping to add one in the front and one in the third row. 

 

I understand the 150 watt limitation and all... it would be nice to have more than one location option to plug into.  The auxiliary outlets themselves are very inexpensive, roughly $25.  Part#22854091

Idk

 

I doubt  they expense running  wiring  for a feature they don't include. By placing the 120v plug behind the console its accessible easily to 1st and  2nd row and even  3rd as most devices less then 150w include a 6 foot electrical cord. I think its possible for you to  install though separate wire with its own independent inverter to the battery.  Why do you  need an ac plug in each  row?

My 2014 Silverado did not come with the towing package,  but all of the wiring was already there.   The same with my 2015 Traverse. I added in brake controllers and a plug in the back,  but wiring was already done, so why would this be different? 

Also, I have 4 kids which is why I own a Suburban.  Family trips with extension cords running from the 2nd row to the third just causes more wires to get kicked and yanked on when getting in and out.  These are teenagers and little ones, not adults who use common sense.  So this is why I would like additional plugs.  I'm hoping someone else has done this or has diagrams.

I thinks thats because tow package is an upgrade on your 14 silverado and for mass production purposes  the rough in is already there. But there is no such upgrade  of having  ac plugs  in every row of a 2016 suburban in any of the trims or upgrades so i doubt gm would run wires  for options they dont sell or make available in higher trims or upgrades.  Thats why nobody has provided you a diagram as it may not exist. Id love if i was wrong and someone would show us these wires are ran in a suburban . I do understand your problem with excessive  wires.  You might have 2 available options .aftermarket install or if your kids are using tablets and phones then buy then portable  batteries at costco, their handheld come in many sizes and are cheap and hold 2 to 5 times the charge  of a phone or tablet. They have usb plugs on them.  Ive noticed  under the hood of my suburban a empty spot for what would  hold an additional battery as well

    • Fred was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young pullets, and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was replaced. This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing. Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the bells. Fred's favourite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but this morning he noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all! When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. To Fred's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one. Fred was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the City Show and he became an overnight sensation among the judges. The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize," but they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well. Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making. Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the unsuspecting populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention. Vote carefully in the next election, you can't always hear the bells.
    • Can someone confirm if the GM order workbench terminal is able to validate a custom build sequence:   1) Initialize the Allocation Base: Open a new vehicle build queue, select the 2026 Chevrolet Suburban 4WD, and pick the High Country (3LZ Preferred Equipment Group).   2) Select the Diesel Powertrain: Go directly to the engine configuration screen and choose RPO code LZ0 (3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel). Ensure it maps to the MHS 10-speed automatic transmission.   3) Deploy the Seating Swap: Navigate to the Interior Options screen and enter RPO code ATT to replace the standard captain's chairs with the power-release 60/40 bench seat. Because you are not trying to force a separate luxury or air-suspension bundle, the standard, premium D07 Fixed Floor Console remains active. The system will accept this change immediately without triggering a warning message.   3)Apply Heavy-Duty Hauling Capability: Input RPO code NHT (Max Trailering Package). The commercial terminal will automatically bundle the required trailering hardware and software modules to support the diesel engine's maximum towing capacity.   5) Layer the Premium Tech and Glass: Separately add code C3U (Panoramic Power Sunroof) and code UKL (Super Cruise) to the order screen.   6) Run the Final Validation: Click the "Validate Order" button at the bottom of the interface.
    • Spent the last hour or 2 googling and reading up on the spacer thing. I don't like the loss of thread contact on the slip on spacers, but it appears you can get "extended" lug nuts that reach into the hole of the wheel to get back the lost threads. Looks like the only true hubcentric slip on spacers are at least .375". I'd want as little as I could get away with and don't want to cause other clearance issues going any thicker. Bora seems to offer what appears to be a well made .375" spacer and extended lug nuts. I searched here and did find a couple threads recommending Bora. But not cheap. By the time I buy spacers and lugs, new TPMS sensors, then pay a tire shop to install the new sensors, I suspect I'm going to be in over $400. Thinking about running out and getting some washers to put behind the wheel to see if .375" is enough to clear calipers, turn lock to lock without rubbing, and to see if the wheels/tires look strange pushed out a little. This would just be to check fitment.
    • Roadmaster makes some quality parts; I have their sway bar. I considered the RAS, but I ended up bagging. I didn't know what kind of ride I'd get with RAS, and the bags have interior jounce bumpers, so I can run 0 pounds pressure. I figured I'd have the best of normal suspension ride with assist on-demand. But it seems you got pretty much the same in one item.
