Did you install a leveling kit?

No, it must be the angle.  I measured, there is a 7/8" difference at the wheel well top.

Got it lifted today. Cognito leveling kit with upper control arms with fox shocks. Toyo RT 35’s with method 305 20”. Added some amp steps too.

What did you do to black out AT4 and HD on doors?   What did you do on tailgate? 

 

Did you order blacked out AT4 logos for doors and tailgate from GMC (I have them on my 2020 1500 AT4 Carbon Pro and like the look - planning on 2500 AT4, so was looking into same look for that) - what about the HD on doors?

What is everyone doing for smokes side markers? I've seen the vinyl overlays and the boost auto with signal mod (which I like a lot) but it replaced the lenses and I don't want to give up the GMC logo.

Thanks in advance!

I replaced my stock amber lenses with the Klearz smoked lenses. They come with the GMC logo on it. You will have to remove your fenders, remove the light and remove the amber lenses. Then you will have to clean and glue the smoked lenses back on the OEM housing. It’s not difficult but slightly tedious work. Klearz does offer a switchback led turn signal upgrade option as well.

Did you hard wire the dash cam? I did on my 2018 1500 but traded that for a 3500 last month. I can figure it out just seeing if someone else has.

Not yet, the new Rexing does not come with a fused lead anymore.  I will eventually, not enough power ports in a custom

How do you like the RT's, thinking of doing those too? I've had the MT's and the ATII's but these look like a nice middle ground with a warranty.

No complaints so far. Haven’t taken them off reading or anything yet.

    • Congratulations Isttype, on your gmc. Really like my 2024 2500hd sle doublecab now with 85,500 miles.  I checked the oil today at 4800 miles since last oil change and barely reading on the stick.  I don't care if GM says it's Acceptable adding a quart every 2000 miles because that is 100% BS, It is not a 1966 Harley Shovelhead! Sounds like it's setting up a future failure like I had with my 1500 6.2l. Other than oil consumption problems, I really like the 6.6l gas and 10 speed is really nice.  Towed a light 4000 pound trailer last week and averaged 14 mpg.  I was pretty impressive that a 7300 pound gas truck did 14mpg towing, Later-
    • Long Term Cold Cycle Limited Testing   Back to the 1990's and XOM's million mile test. Since then there have been others and there will be more. Schaeffer's, AMSOIL to name two. Of these Schaeffer's is the stand alone which I will explain in a bit later.    http://papers.sae.org/600190/:   http://papers.sae.org/850215/:   Up to 75% of  engine wear occurs on cold starts. These two links (above) provide the technical reasons for engine wear. In a nut shell, and by a large margin, cylinder wear is what takes out most motors and even with a pre-oiling system that part of the engine is dry enough on cold starts and cold warm up to pierce Stribeck.   So when you put a motor, or a car, on a dyno for a million miles stopping only for oil changes, (yes fuel is uninterrupted) or break down maintenance, you are depriving the test of the most important part of it's wear cycle. Yes a million is then a pretty easy walk even for a mineral oil under those conditions.    How about cleanliness during the long test cycles? Same thing. Varnishes that stick rings and insulate parts are laid down by repetitive 'heat cycles'. It's the cool down the precipitates the varnishes. These long runs also hinder acidic attack caused by cold start richness and less than optimal cold start ring sealing. They hinder water formation and enhance breathing of the crankcase; the petri dish of acid formation, the first step in sludge formation, amalgamation and precipitation. These motors are also monitored and controlled for water and oil temperatures to within the "normal operating range".      https://www.swri.org/sites/default/files/sequence-iiih-test.pdf Note the test sequence in some boutique oils literature for testing, API IIIH, is not the standard used for the ILSAC G7 testing. Does that mean it is irrelevant? No, not as used. As used as a 'visual guide' it makes it's point. The G7 weighted piston deposit minimum is lower.      Back to Schaeffer's. That was a cyclical test of an engine in fleet service and not a dyno mule and if you saw the video it was not mirror clean but wear was low.    There are oils like BioSyn and other 'Renewable" source oils that taught cleanliness and have proven themselves in fleet testing. Havoline an other example.    The newest ILSAC G-7 test prioritize cleanliness, LSPI mitigation and fuel economy OVER WEAR. In comparison Porsche C30 Specification Verses ILSAC G-7 Specification below:      Some will balk that this graph isn't apples to apples and I will challenge that in that this graph represent the SPECIFICATION and not the any One Oil Performance.   It is absolutely possible to minimize wear, maximize cleanliness and mitigate LSPI etc., It just isn't cheap and currently I see none that are not walking toward profit over performance.     
    • I don't think you will need a split, separate product, etc., the OBD port should be able to deliver everything you need. Since your device would be plugged into it all the time, it wouldn't miss anything.    Hardware in this case will be the easiest part of your project - ELM 327 devices will already deliver all the data you need. Reporting/software is where your advantage/marketability is.
    • I do too. I’ll never be stuck again 😂
    • It has happened to me a few times. I carry a jumpstart-tire inflator with me.
