My wrapper just sent me a pic of what mine are looking like. I decided to get the center portion smoked. Looking forward to seeing it on the truck tomorrow.

How to these come off and reattach?  Adhesive?  Mine are wrapped but I want to paint them.

They just clip on. Just open the hood and you can reach in with needle nose to get em

They are kind of a pain but they can be removed. There are about 6 clips in the back. Use needle nose pliers and some sort of plastic pry tool. As you squeeze the clips behind the fender, stick the plastic pry tool between the emblem and the fender so they don’t pop back in place. Be careful not to scratch it.

Does anyone know part number for the nylon clip liners that go on the back of the metal clips?  Almost all fell in the wheel well.

Painted and added aftermarket Duramax badge

Where did you find the aftermarket badge?

I've done the bed cover and boards, leveled it and added the chrome inserts for the tailgate.  But, by far my favorite  addition is the PedalMonster and iDash.  Game changer, total game changer.

If any of you fellas with a lifted or leveled 2020/2021 GM 2500/3500 interested in a Cognito PISK, let me know. I sold the AT4 and won't be needing it.  It's brand new and never opened 

 

Here is my ad in the "For Sale/Wanted" section

Finished up the CST 4” lift over the weekend. A bit of a chore to get it done but love it and drives great. Took about 14 hours on and off with helpers. The cSt kit didn’t raise the rear enough with the 2” blocks so I will be raising it more with 3” blocks tomorrow. As it sits, the front is about 1” higher than the back. I have a heavy slide-out in the bed with tools so it drops it about 3/4”. The blocks will bring it back up.

Today I had new fuel sledge rims (20”x 9” 20mm offset) wrapped in 37”x12.5” BFG K02. Very minor rubbing on the front of the wheel well liners which I took care of with zip ties. The space between the mud flap and tire at full lock was a little tight so I heated them up and molded back a bit.

I’ll take more picks once I bring the rear up. I included one pic of the lift before the wheels yesterday in my shop.

    • Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose  
    • I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose  
    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
