Curious as to how it is integrated into the truck.  I'm guessing a switch at the hitch and wired into the tailgate plug?

We can ship you one whenever you are ready. Just need your Name and address. We Launched that site to let people know it was coming and to get on our list so we could ship when we had a complete stock. I have installed demos on trucks including my own 2019 Denali so we could get some feedback before a full launch. 

 

Yes, I am Co-Owner. 

 

Thanks, Jim

I am interested in your product but honestly the website/video doesn't give a whole lot of info about how your product works. Could you give some more details please?

I think its a good idea for a lifted truck, but from what I could tell you need a step ladder to be able to use the drop down step. Standard trucks the trailer will be dragging ground.

My truck is stock and needs at least 4-6” drop to get trailer level. If not the trailer is pointed up. Sounds like you just wanna pitch your “tailgate fix” that you won’t give any real details on...

What kind of details would you like? Product is finished, waiting on the manufacturer to get our stock up so that when people start placing orders they don't have to wait. Nobody including  me wants To buy  something and be told your order will be ready in 3 weeks. We want to put out a great product that our customs will be happy with. We know we all get some negative feed back just like we e getting from you but that's the nature of the beast. It's not a must buy its an option. It's an accessary like anything else. The nice thing about it is it will hopefully keep someone from accidentally missing up their tailgate, or better yet someone that is not familiar with the flaw messing up someones Tailgate. We have been told we should be ready by the 22nd if not sooner. hanks for your patience!

My original hitch solution is working perfectly, 6inch drop is about perfect for a trailer to sit level.  Just don't have adjustability, but then again hardly ever need to adjust it.

Curious, can you flip the step down & put full weight on the step without the tailgate flexing into the hitch?

I need an 8” drop for my utility trailer to sit level but I can’t find an 8” forged hitch. I’d maybe settle for a 6” if I know I can stand on the step without it hitting the hitch.

      VSE CCV Bypass - Anyone have this installed in their L5P?

      By AbzDad · Posted

      I have the VSE CCV kit. It is a quality product. Fairly easy installation. I vent it back into the turbo intake horn, like stock. I check the reservoir monthly. I have seen oily water come out. So far, after 6 months I would say it has collected about 8-10 ounces of crap.

      Navigating senior years.

      I'm getting out in public more these days and rely on a walker for anything more than short distances.  I am impressed with how kind others are in their efforts to assist when they see me doing the old man walker shuffle!  I find teenagers hanging out at the mall are often the first to get ahead of me to open a door or to offer me the opportunity to get in front of them in a lineup!  I am very fortunate that this is temporary for me and I have a developed a huge appreciation for those seniors struggling to maintain some mobility. Walkers, canes or scooters will assist with mobility but they don't eliminate the challenges.  Chances are the individual using these devices are hurting.  A few kind words of recognition from a stranger can take away the discomfort for a few moments.  I am looking forward to paying forward all of the kindness I have received!

      6 Speed vs 8 Speed

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Curious @newdude, how does this change when a 6L80 is either fitted with a billet converter OR is behind a V6 whose converter isn't a pile of junk? Oh, and are you saying in the above the 4-5-6 clutch's burning up is the result of the converter/pump induced failure or they are just fragile? Thanks in advance for any feedback you may be willing to give.

      2021 with Intermittent AC Cooling Issues

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      5.3 Sierra with approximately 80,000 miles had a radiator replacement about 6 months ago which required pulling the AC condenser and a vacuum and recharge on the system.  AC cooled fine until about a month ago, when it would suddenly start blowing lukewarm air for 5 minutes at a time at various points throughout the day, then suddenly resume cooling again.  Sometimes its when stopped at an intersection and other times while moving.  I've read about the internal electronics in the compressor going bad on these trucks and not cycling properly, but sounds like many dealers just chase AC issues with a parts cannon.  Also wondering if they charged it correctly when the radiator was replaced.   Is there an easy way to see if these electronically driven compressors are engaging properly, or to check for freeze up, etc.?  Dealer usually wont do much unless they can replicate or I can show them a video of what's going on.

      Shift to Park Message Warranty Claim

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      Apparently it doesn't trigger a fault, at least according to my dealer, but in one month its gone from once or twice a week to several times a day, so you can catch it on video and its likely to be seen by the dealer.  I've heard some have replaced only the switch, yet others have required full shifter assembly replacement to the tune of $900+?
