So I was at the dealership today and reviewed what I needed to make this happen, the part # we apparently need is 84613793 if this is input into gmpartsdirect it does not give me a picture of it, but it did at the dealerships, and it came with everything needed.  Ordering today, wish me luck.

Did your grill come in yet? There is a "trim" filler piece that looks like it would be required as well I think.  Part # 84678988, part #6 in diagram. I would it would assume it would need to be painted to match. 

 

I really wish they would have offered HC grill as a option by itself.

Did you end up getting this swap done? Very interested in doing it as well!

Yes Im curious as well, has anyone done the swap yet?? What parts do you need and how hard was it? Trying to get quotes from dealers on parts but havent heard back yet.

Haven't done that swap but i did mine

After having mine apart and looking at things there are some unused clip spots that I'm assuming get used with the high country setup

Eventually want to do this high Country grill swap. Curious if they sell painted black to match, or if I gotta do that myself? Want it all blacked out...

Just went to the dealership to confirm fitment and price it all out, you need two parts,  GM# 84691991(grille) & GM# 84678988 (lower fascia). The lower fascia is paint to match so you will have to have it painted.  Everything is fully interchangeable. Ordered mine up today. Will post pics when its done. 

 

I removed the stock grille, wasn't too bad. You have to remove outer fascias first to get grille off. They have  snap in clips  and one bolt behind the fender flare. Be prepared to buy replacement clips, they are very brittle, snapped a few of mine off pulling fender flare and fascias out.

For those of you who were curious. Here is a high country grille swap on a 2020 HD  Ltz. What a difference, The grille is part GM # 84691991 ($963.00) but you also have to buy the lower fascia GM #84678988 ($504). The fascia arrives primed and must be painted to match. Mine is currently at the paint booth getting sprayed. Everything bolted right up and snapped right in.  Granted I do have a ltz premium but I dont think that made a difference. Pic below of grille installed! Any questions on details feel free to hit me up.

    • This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.  
    • 2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.  
    • Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
    • Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
