Anyine have a set of these on their 2019 yet?

If so, how do you like them? And, would you care to show a pic and elaborate on the degree of difficulty it took, to get them on?

Thank you!

hi  MacLaren

i cannot get a picture tonight but i can tomorrow

i have neosupreme covers from coverking on my 2019

two tone black/camo i bought them thru Carid  for like buck and a half per row. they came with and install kit included ..i installed them in less than an hour (having never done fitted covers) and i took my time.

imho they fit great made the seats much more comfortable than with out.. of course they are a knock off of real neoprene but less then half the price too. biggest issue i had was they do not(even yet) make them for the rear seats in the 2019. i looked to see two days ago for rears...they really are pretty nice covers and they do great job making them  and coverking has great video on installing..we have a yellow lab that never stops shedding

and the clean up really easy.. and are pretty much water proof as well and  bunch of options on colors

I wander there is that much difference between the real neoprene and knock off neoprene covers?

I really wouldnt care to spend more if the difference is significant.  Which, I think might not be the case.

Do you guys have cloth or leather seats? I had Wet Okoles on my last pick up for 10+ and they worked great. 
 

not sure how the leather Seats being heated And ventilated will be effect the sears

i really looked all over for neoprene  but could not bring myself to pay 6-8 hundred dollars for seat covers..when i found these i read a bunch on them and whats strange to me is i got them through carid for half  the cost if ordered through coverking..

i personally cannot find enough difference in these and real to justify the price

for two rows (even though rears were not correct and returned) was just over 300.00

most want that a row

Good deal!

That's what I was thinking too.

I'm gonna do exactly as you did.

Thank you for sharing this!!

I bought the Coverking Neosupreme seat covers and in less that a year they are falling apart. Will not buy again. I'm contemplating going with the Covercraft Precision Fit Carhartt Seat Covers next time. You get what you pay for.

I went with neoprene wetokole’s, usually do these in all my trucks. although a little pricey, fit is perfect, quality is great. lots of colorway choices and add on options, i went with the plain black, sometimes less is more lol. only complaint is the rear seat back rest storage got really snug to open and close with the extra fabric. hopefully it breaks in with time ??‍♂️

I was looking at the Wet Okole as well and the only thing holding me back was the cost.  However, the fit and finish look excellent and your images might have just sold me on them.

fitment is top notch compared to all the seat covers i’ve ever came across. the last set I had lasted 6+ years with lots of beach use. they wash out pretty much like new until I sold the truck. seats stayed super clean underneath after all those years too. I definitely recommend. they take a long time to arrive once you order tho, I think like 4-5weeks so just a headsup

      Bench seat swap for 2021-2024 suburban

      By davester · Posted

      probably won't get a response from that user, as they haven't returned to the site since making that one post.  users don't (at least I don't, and I haven't seen any setting which would notify me via say, email) get any notification other than going to this site, and checking if they got a response on their thread...

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Thanks - I wasn't quite caffeinated this morning. 2:1 makes sense, turning the crankshaft 360 degrees will turn the cam 180 degrees, and had I done that, the cam's dot would be at 6 and the crank's at 12 again.   I went ahead and took the sprocket off anyway, aligned everything dot-to-dot including the balance shaft just for s&g. I'm glad I did because I discovered no Loctite on the timing sprocket bolts. Maybe it's not required, but at only 20 ft-lb torque spec, those bolts aren't in there very tight. Cleaned and reassembled with some thread locker and torqued.   A general observation: Less is more with RTV. If a little doesn't stop a leak, a LOT probably won't, either. RTV is thinly veiled revenge, in a tube...

      The timing marks are ok, that is #1, you can turn it over until they line up and it won't change anything, the crankshaft turns twice for every camshaft revolution, I have always set up SB Chevs as your pic shows using a straight edge

      Someone's been here before.... There is a receipt for a 3-piece timing set, purchased earlier this year.   Is this picture something, or, nothing?   I have the timing cover off and my crank is perfectly TDC and the keyed gear's locating mark is dead on 12 o'clock.   The cam gear locating mark is also at 12 o'clock. Now, I'm not an expert, but all the install guides say the two locating marks should meet and be perfectly aligned when installing a timing set. The mark on the crank should be dead on 12:00 and the cam gear's mark should be dead on 6:00, and both marks should be perfectly vertically aligned.   I believe the timing gear is keyed or has a dowel that ensures it can only be installed on the cam in one position, so I have to believe the cam is out of phase somehow. At the very least, with a triangular bolt pattern, it can only be installed in one of 3 different positions.   Before I pulled the front cover, the truck was running alright, no service engine soon lights except an occasional P0172 / rich condition. Timing -16 timing at idle (should be +16), and total -35% fuel trim, two conditions I haven't been able to figure out.   In related news, my injector tested pretty well, wasn't leaking, but I had it rebuilt anyway, and it's on it's way back to me.         Along with this discovery, the good and bad:   Good: The oil pan seal appears undamaged.   Bad: -The timing cover has been reused, and the positioning dowels have been broken. That could explain some of the leaking. -Some kind of white paste or grease was used to try to seal the oil pan seal and timing cover (since wiped off..). -Then, someone globbed silicone all over the front of the cover and also buried the ckp sensor in it. But, they didn't put any inside the cover or use RTV to try to seal the oil pan seal with the timing cover (good).

      PF63 Oil Filters Going Away?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      The guy that owns K&P filters last I checked in with him has over 300,000 miles on his Dodge base Hemi using his own 35 micron absolute stainless mesh filter from its first oil change.    The GM study I've posted a dozen times shows the relationship in engine life based in multiples of base units, not miles or years. That is the base unit is the number of miles the motor ran using the reference filter efficiency.    The above two paragraphs dismantle anecdotal arguments IF one changes oil often enough to prevent particle formation and the motor is in otherwise good shape. That is not full of silica (no air filter) or suffering a metallurgical issue that is not part of the lubrication discussion. Poor heat treat in example.   Data from UOA's I've reviewed from more than a few engines can show remarkably broad variations in oil cleanliness using the exact same filter over the course of an engines life.     Lastly there is the common sense of it. Wear debris WILL circulate the engine BEFORE it ever sees a filter in route to that filter and WILL harm the pump which NEVER sees filtered oil.    Alpha question then becomes, given the facts, how long do you believe is a reasonable service life from a vehicle you are certain you will not pass down? That is the junk yard will be it's resting place when you're done with it? (the moral issue most don't care about).    Omega question is then how diligent are you prepared to be in general mechanical, air & oil maintenance? Preventing particulates and keeping them sufficiently dilute; preventing the precursors from generation, amalgamation and precipitation.    If I get a good look at the engine bay of a vehicle I have a fair idea of the owners commitment to the inside of the power train. That 30 micron WIX is still more efficient than a sieve.
