Curious if when any of you guys were accessing the roof by dropping the headliner, if you took the opportunity to see what was in or under the plastic spoiler over the back window? I'm curious as to how durable the thing is for possibly adding some LED's for back illumination, or some Amber's if I were to mount a plow later. Thinking of some smaller flush mount types. May also add marker lights to the front of the roof down the road as well, so would need to drop the liner anyway.

Monday the exhaust disappeared

Did the flowmaster 817933

It is quite aggressive just alittle less bite then no exhaust

FYI if u have built in fifth wheel package u will have to cut and weld the driver side to fit.

Left the tail pipes off for now not sure what I'm gonna do with them yet

this is a walkthru for rear seat removal 
if there is anything that may be missing or questions please pm me and I will modify my post
I haven't done it this way yet but it should work  and only take 10-15 mins to do
to start u need to pull all the head rest completely out (buttons on side of support) also there is a tilt button on the headrest itself 
e622e0a931a616716c109432eceedd10.jpg
next u will have to pull the headrest supports out 
to do this u will put a screwdriver in the slot as pictured below pull toward the front a bit and lift up on the support 
should slide out fairly easy

next fold the bench seat up and remove the 4 10 mm bolts against the back wall  (((blue stars)))
u will also have to remove the center seatbelt that is a T50 above the jack tools

fold the bench back down
then with a pick or wire u have to get behind the seat and pull up on the hood latch things (3 near child restraint brackets) (yellow lines in picture above)

u will then pull forward on the seat and it should fall off 
from this point I believe u can access anything u need 
I removed the bench first when I pulled mine but it should be easier to get to the 18 mm bolts that hold the bench in after removing the back
if u have heated rear seats be sure to unplug them on the driver side 
 
 

Thank you!! Your instructions helped tremendously.
Have all the room I need now to drill holes for my air lines [emoji1690]
Not having to remove the seat just the back is a huge plus.

Great work! I was volunteer fire in TN, moved to Florida and they don't have any slots here. I do miss it. Looks super clean!

So ziabart finally opened up and got me in for
Steps rhino coated
Ceramic
Rust proofing
Window treatment
Interior detailer
And with only 1400 miles the first parts are being replaced
e67d86a6142d13e9c7daa52e6e543e10.jpg

I was pretty pissed when they told me about it
They already had parts ordered and didn't call me first[emoji35]
So when I got there and saw the damage I asked how much of a discount I was getting...they said they can do something for me ...I settled for a full interior detail whenever I want it... they charge $200 for that service....
Still pissed it happened but makes it alittle easier to sleep since I can't put the first dent in it lmao

Sad! The first one always hurts the worst, glad it’s behind you now. Sorta, it’s not fixed yet

Call 911! 

J.K. Since they broke the cherry, you aughta tell them to expect to be paying for it for the next 18 years.

    • My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.
    • Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?
    • I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions. 
    • I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that. 
    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
