Considering at the same kit. How does the truck ride compared to stock?

It’s not quite as good as stock. I have ordered the uca’s and am hoping that they help the ride a little bit. I can tell it doesn’t have as much suspension travel. I’m thinking about lowering the front around .5 inch and lowering the rear 1”. I will make my final decision once I install the uca’s. Overall I am very happy I’m just trying to fine tune it.

Do you have any more pics of this truck. That white with the anthracite wheels looks really nice!

Want to get the Amp Steps but the stock one can minimize door dings.3aa662e1673130650a235db7a16b7dc3.jpg5dd6fe6232a8061e36bfcfd341d43a0b.jpg12fc5f6a018ef0f1fcc97881732cc91f.jpg

Do your 37s make a vibration throughout the truck?

Where to start.. I'm obsessed with modifying mine!

Fab fours bumpers

OZ usa lights fog, light bar and rear bumper

Warn winch

Amp xl power boards

Leveling kit

2 inch ECCP wheel spacers

37 nitto terra grapplers

Bushwacker fender flares

AVS flatmat hood guard

AVS window shields

Weather guard box

Roll n lock retractable bed cover

Weather tech mats

Voxx rear entertainment for the kiddos.

 

Bilstein B8 5160 reservoir shocks on the way.. trouble shooting a vibration, and slight rake up front.

Readylift 3/2 sst kit with fox shocks
fuel blitz 20x9 +20 offset
37x12.50 20 nitto ridge grappler

Initially it rubbed the front felt liner and mud flap in the rear. It does rub the frame rail at full lock. I removed the lower valence just because. I trimmed the mud flap and was able to bend the brackets in the front behind the felt liner enough to eliminate any rubbing.

Josh, Interested in your brush guard. What is the brand and how does it react to the bumper sensors?

It’s a ranch hand. It vibrates the seat/alerts you below 7 mph and activates the front camera like you are about to hit something. They make one with the hole cutout for the camera but I like the full coverage version better so I just deal with it.

Thank you! Been searching for a GMC pic for awhile, many Silverado's out there. I have the SLE without a front camera, just sensors so maybe it will be just the notification. I would like to see the stainless Westin installed.

You’re welcome. I haven’t seen one in stainless so I can’t comment. I can say that this is my fifth ranch hand and I have always been pleased with their products.

you can turn the seat vibration off and I believe also the front camera coming on. it is in the collision/safety section in the radio (IIRC)

Agreed, They are great! I am in NY, so winter salt and brine. I have used the stainless Westin for 5 years and a few chrome plated GoRhino s in my fleet with no rust or corrosion issues.

Well fellas, I'm deployed again and missing the truck.  Figured I'd get back on here and see what you're doing to yours and I like what I'm seeing, so figured I'd share.

 

2020 2500HD High Country, Black on Black 6.6 Duramax. First went to black emblems and added all weather mats from the dealer. (Picked this truck up in Oct 2019, had to wait for mods to hit the market, so it started slow)  FTS 9" lift with Fox shocks and resi's.  24x14 Arkon's on 38x15.5 Fury tires.  Amp research XL steps and Bodyguard A2L Baja bumper.  Bak Revolver X2 bed cover with Bedrug bed mat.  Nicoko bumper lighting and rock lights, with Oracle wheel lights.  MTI Acoustics under-seat sub enclosure with JL 12TW3 powered with JL RD500/1 to add deeper sound to the BOSE system.  Did emblem delete and stainless steel sleeve on the exhaust tip. Also changed license and reverse lighting to daylight led bulbs.

 

Probably do some more minor accent lighting and the spare tire delete Hornblasters 540 next.  Would like to get differential cover swapped out and maybe some tuning in the future, just didn't want to be the first to mess with the electronics.  Also, if i can get GM to confirm that the DVD headrests marked for the High Country actually have the embroidered logo on the front, will install those too for the boys.

 

Keep up the inputs, always excited to see what I can do next!

Does your guard block your front camera? Also check out VOXX rear entertainment for the kids, thank me later!

I did a full clay bar, paint correction and a full wax three step wax to prepare my truck for the winter months. I've had my GMC AT4 for just over a year now and I’m always impressed at how well it drives and handles with the 12” bulletproof lift on 40s.

    • You could try a used 1, they used that engine in the Astro vans, Plenty of them in the boneyard. Look for a wrecked or rotted 1 so the chance that it was scrapped for that reason and not a mechanical issue will be greater
    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.
