Anyone have a source for frame hole plugs for the 2019?

After having the wheel well inserts installed and noticing that they don't even cover them, Id like to plug the tube openings.

Here you go:     I didn't check the whole frame, is it just this one square member? 2 outlets total? I need to make some for the round ones also.

It's been a lot of fun designing and using the 3D Printer for projects on my truck. If any of you are interested in some of my other adventures I also enjoy producing videos of the projects on my DIY/

Sorry my Tapatalk is set for all years for forums. Didn’t see that you were talking about 2019. I have a 2018 and they worked great. I’m sure you can find them for 2019

Yeah...those might work on the round tube but not the square one. Hopefully someone will come out with a set for the 2019 soon.

Has anyone had any luck finding the square plugs? I have the round ones coming tomorrow but haven't been able to find a solution for the square ones yet

They are back on Ebay.  I couldnt figure out how to post the ebay listing on here but check out the seller's store.  His seller's name is ironcladdezinusa.  Round and rectangle plugs are a set of 4 and selling for $15.95 + free shipping.

Those aren't the plug for the large rectangular hole in the frame. Just the small rectangular hole and the round hole I believe. I ordered those as well.

Yes, the tubes with open ends collect water, mud and salt. I ran the caps 3 years on my 2016, pulled one out and looked in the tube after a few winters. Clean and dry in there, factory coating intact. When I first installed them, I put a little grease on the lip of the caps, slid them in and it’s basically sealed. To me it makes more sense to keep the junk out of the tubes in the first place rather than leave them open so the junk can get in there and dry.

I found some on McMaster Carr based on overall size but haven’t ordered any yet.

30.00 for 10 of them.


I’ll check local hardware store once this crazy stuff with quarantine passes.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.

      In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them.

      I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By whenindoubtuseahammer · Posted

      Good evening. I was lucky enough to get passed down to me a 2007 GMC LBZ that was my great uncle's. While the underside and rockers are more or less gone I feel like with time I can restore it to working order since it only has 110,000 miles and he put nearly every option he could get without getting the new body style since he did not trust DEF. So far I have done everything I can think of but when I put the key into the ignition nothing happens. I put 2 brand new batteries in it. Cleaned the terminals. Check all the fuses and relays and they all pass with my multimeter. I know I'm missing something that I just cant think of. The only odd thing is the OBD2 port works which makes me think its not the mega fuse. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

      Looks nice. I still have my 2000, 1500. Bought a 2025, 1500 for retirement. Feels solid. These trucks have a bad rap on the internet. My brother has a `24 1500, 5.3 with 52,000 miles. No problems at all. Mine hasn`t either but mine`s only at 12,700 miles. Have seen some of these things with 100,000 miles with no problems.
