Any news on a programmer that will unlock and change the 106 mph speed limiter for the 2019-2020 6.2l silverados?  Do not want to change the computer out, just unlock to change the speed limiter.

Tires and driveshaft. Once a driveshaft comes out of balance at those speeds it will destruct with in seconds.

They do make one.   It requires voiding your warranty and spending a minimum of $1,900 to purchase a new unlocked computer from HP Tuners and the credits to tune it.   I doubt you'

Nope, but mine goes to 113 and stops.

I have though that the speed limiter setting is a safety concern and set based upon the performance specs of the stock tires.

My tires are 118 mph rated and there is a good safety factor on top of that. I would expect these T rated Bridgestones to be good for at least 125-130 regardless of what the mfg states. They have to protect themselves.

I doubt you're going to spend that kind of cash just to go over 106mph every now and then.

My 2019 Carbon Pro AT4 kicks in at 98 mph - very annoying!  Well below the tire rating - but I guess they dock you another 8 mph for the 2" lift!

Do you really want to take these high, loose un aerodynamic vehicles with truck tires with a significant forward weight bias at speeds higher than 100?

What gear? 6 or 7? I think mine boggs at 106 is about 6th and I still have 4 more gears to go. Sucks

 

I have no idea, it was still climbing, I hit 113 when the limiter kicked in once before.

Damn I had no idea you guys were over 100. I'm governed to 98.

Must be a Trail Boss - AT4 thing - my AT4 at 98 as well (which was done off hwy of course).  Guess when they add 2" of lift they drop 10 mph!  My 2014 Raptor was limited at 106.

      No Software Updates - Old Build

      By DaleB · Posted

      Thanks, all. It sounds like keeping the software "as is" is the best course of action.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overengineering   Excerpt from the above link: (BTW the above is a 90 second read)   [Quote]   A story about very precise engineering is given in the 1858 story The Deacon's Masterpiece or, the Wonderful "One-hoss Shay": A Logical Story by Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr., which tells of a carriage (one-horse shay) Because it had been engineered so that no single piece failed first – no piece was over-engineered relative to the others, and they thus all collapsed at the same time. A similar quote by Ferdinand Porsche claimed "the perfect race car crosses the finish line in first place and immediately falls into pieces."[5]   [End Quote}   By Engineering's  own definition then; the AFM and Torque Converters, 4-5-6 clutch assembly of the 6L80E, and a dozen other common chronic parts and systems failures are "UNDER ENGINEERED". And by their own definition done so with INTENT. Ya can't have it both ways OEM's.

      Broke Down on the Mountain

      By Gangly · Posted

      I was in Utah this week attempting a bow hunt in the Wasatch mountains with friends.  On the evening of the first hunt, making my way across a ridge to a friends camp, the upper control arm on the driver's side separated, the CV axle got trashed, and the wheel was dang near at a 45 degree angle to the ground.  I was able to get it towed off the mountain and into town about 3:00 am, and spent the remainder of the night in an O'Reilly's parking lot.  Luckily, there was a Chevrolet dealership not to far away so I was able to get to the dealership and pick up a new CV and UCA.  It would have been a few days before they could have gotten to the truck and I brought tools with me on hunt since it was a two day drive to get there, so I did the repairs myself in the O'Reilly's parking lot.      What's interesting is that the UCA ball joint didn't break, it just popped out of the bottom of the UCA.  There was VERY LITTLE evidence of grease on the ball joint or in the socket, and you could see where the ball joint had warbled out part of the socket over time.  I guess that's what happens over 186K miles of use :)   Big Kudos to O'Reilly's for letting me work on the truck in their parking lot.  However, they made a $150+ off of me from the purchase of various tools, so I guess it was in their best interest anyways :)   Getting towed off the mountain.   UCA Ball Joint Socket   Trashed CV   Suspension disconnected and UCA and CV Removed   New UCA and CV installed with the suspension buttoned up.

      What did you do to your "other" car (aka musclecar) today

      My family still laughs at me when they see me drive up in the minivan. Same with less than a V-8 truck. It helps that I have choices. I don’t think I could only have a minivan as the one and only vehicle as much as I like it. And I wouldn’t pass up a good buy on an older V-8 reg cab GM truck. Could you live Raven as the only ride?
