Hi all, 

 

I just brought home my 2020 RST and I'm looking for some sort of bed management system to be able to hold groceries or whatnot in the bed without it flying everywhere. Most of my truck buddies just get a 2x6 and put in towards the back of the bed and it hold stuff but I was wondering if there was anything else out there. 

 

Post pictures of what you use!

Yep, I use a 2x6 also. I sprayed mine with bed liner coating and also made moveable pieces that prevent items from sliding side by side.

No problem! Hope it works out well for you.    Here’s other pics I took with the tailgate closed & the divider up front. I’ll probably make longer pieces that fit better up front.

Couple 2 x 6’s have always worked for me! The grooves in the bed and tailgate hold things nicely in place when driving. That and some good toolboxes that lock together works perfectly. Oh and the multi pro tailgate is absolutely amazing. Makes the whole bed so much more accessible! 34935C97-9336-4BD4-8FD6-DACFA197420A.jpeg.85520b958f6f9ca7f54222769fdffc3d.jpeg

Thanks.

On my 2500, the distance from the 2x6 to the tailgate is roughly the same as it is to the wheel well, so it works nice to create a contained space in both areas. I made a couple of the short pieces for both sides.
I have a front accessible hard tonneau cover so I may do something similar in the front of the box also, to keep items from sliding back.

What rug is that?

Just the Chevy-branded version of the normal BedRug kit. They were all about the same price when I bought it, figured I might as well have the bow tie logo...?

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      Howdy folks,   Recently I pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain (part numbers coming soon - will have to disassemble), and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).   On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash for the heating element.     No problem… or so I thought.   I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires. I ran it to the positive of the heated steering wheel (Violet/White), and took black to ground.   Hooked up the battery, turned the truck on - no heated steering wheel. No button backlights. Was pleased to see that my cruise control was working though.   Read a post suggesting reversing polarity, so I gave it a shot. Violet and White to ground, Black to power.    Aha! Heat! But I seemingly can’t turn it off AND still no backlights on any of the buttons.    Checked all fuses, everything is still in good order. I’m stumped.   Does anyone have any insight? If so, please share!

      Brake Pad Warning Message

      By TrueBlue · Posted

      I'm about 1800 miles into my last oil change, and yesterday a message appeared saying oil life was at 77%. Not sure why it popped up but I think all of these electronics could be susceptible to solar flares or somesuch. I change my oil right at 3K each time, and that was the first time in 10870 miles that message came up. Strange thing is that it showed on the screen at all since I don't drive with that sort of info displayed on the DIC.

      Checked the pads today and there's plenty of meat on them. If the message keeps coming up, I'll just answer YES that the pads were replaced and wait for the squeal.
