Did you get your liners squared away? I just installed the Husky liners on my 2022 and they fit perfectly! did you remove the rear guards prior to install like the instructions indicated?

One side is like yours now and the passenger side is still not perfect. Yeah I pulled the rear flap nearly off it was just kind of hanging down. 
 

I can tell two differences in yours right away. Your plastic plugs are different looking and yours are cut much higher around the top of the rear leaf. Mine are a lot longer they go only an inch or so above the rear leaf. Curious how far down yours hang below the frame?

 

I’ll take a couple pics

4.8mb max size is annoying. Having to do multiple posts

 

as you can see, quality control at Husky is a clown show obviously. 
 

they sent a total of 2 sets and I had to piece together the best of them. They did discount them for the trouble and were good to deal with on the issue so I’ll leave it at that. For the price they are fine and fill their purpose. 
 

I will trim them away from the leaf in the rear because I just noticed I can see rub marks from them touching the leaves.

Here's a couple photos. My set is definitely cut higher. right about frame height.

Still waiting on my truck; it's in Oshawa. In the meantime, I've been getting together some stuff and today got this which might be interesting to some with full consoles but lower trim or content level.

 

Wireless Charging Console Upgrade

 

This has a proprietary adapter to get power from 12V dash plug; no cutting needed. They have both black and Dark Atmosphere, which I got.

 

Install Link

 

This link is for the install of the console top conversion and install of the optional cooling duct to the module. 404parts also has a video on YT but doesn't go into the duct install process. Offhand, I don't see the harness is available separately.

the rear of mine is where they ride really close to the leaf springs. 
 

I used my dremel and cut out and sanded back the plastic a bit. 
 

this tells me quality control sucks at Husky. 
 

here is after I cut them back a little. I want the most coverage possible without the plastic hitting the leaf.

This looks pretty cool. I doubt it would work in my truck it looks like it grabs carpet. Mine has no carpet and the factory Chevrolet rubber floor mats that interlock right on the trans hump

I installed a Peragon cover, Westin bull bar and MBRP stainless exhaust. Waiting on Morimoto headlights.

How do you like the exhaust? Were the mufflers smaller and lighter than stock?  Is that still single exit or dual?

Truck came this afternoon, so just a little time for mods. I put on the LTZ grille overlay and mirror caps, and in a bit of throwback to squarebodies, some "400" emblems on the plastic hood inserts.

 

 

I have a lot of stuff to do; running boards, replacement bumpers, and a Roadmaster rear sway bar.

Those 400 badges are cool. Where did you get them?

They're metal and ~$11-$12 per pair. There is also some silver ones.

 

EDIT: If you prefer metric call-outs, there's THESE and are available in a few color choices.

    • Thanks JR that would be great if you could do that !!! Do you have a link to where this was discussed before ? I cant seem to find it  Thank You Again !
    • Oil pump noise was discussed before.  I will try to remember to record a remote start later this morning. 
    • There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
    • On my wife's 2020 Blazer (~69000 miles), we started to notice the brakes pulsating at faster speeds. Typically around town you don't notice anything, but highway/interstate driving you will notice it. I decided to pull of the front tires and look at the brakes. I figured with the milage, the pads should be wearing out to their life span, but they actually looked decent. Still with "meat" on them. One pad has a ridge wearing in it, and that same rotor is showing the ridge too. That's not the concerning part...the other rotor appears to have a raised bump on it!  The picture make it look like a pimple! Very odd and strange! NOTE: These are the factory brakes and rotors.   I'm attaching pictures of the front brakes and what they look like ate ~69000 miles.
    • 2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD Custom 6.6 Gas Canadian built Truck  I tried to search for my previous thread on this topic but cant find it so my apoligies  for starting another one    #1   Since we have owned our truck purchased new it has this strange noise after using the remote start function  you press the remote start and you hear it start but right at the end of it starting it almost seems like it wants to start again after the truck is running .   There is no gap in time it is right at the end of the start . Almost sounds like when you have started a car/truck and its running and then you try and start it again and you get that grinding noise ,sort of     #2  You can only hear this if you are standing outside of the truck and near the truck  you cant hear it when you start the truck from inside  the cab . So it may very well be happening when starting the truck that way as in normally    #3   This only happens when it is started after sitting . For how long I don't know but it happens after sitting overnight for sure and it wont do it if you stop the engine after starting and then start it again  I have had it in to the Dealership before concerning this but they did not have the truck  when it was cold to hear it . Now its back in the Dealership left it overnight so they could possibly hear the problem . They said they tried and nothing happened . Well they did not know what they were listening for . I started the truck remotely and BINGO it makes the noise . Oh that sounds weird they say . We need to look into it ! I have left for this week at the Dealership    Does your 2024 2500 HD gas do this ?  Any of you fellas care to take the time and trouble to film this operation from a cold start  so I can hear what your sound like  Really  would like to know if this is anormal sound  Thank You Fellas !!
