7 hours ago, Stand By said:

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.

    • Can anyone explain why the oil pressure runs higher after the DFM is shut off?  just installed the Pulsar Lt.
    • Thanks!  I figured as such; GM and other manufacturers have used standard parts and harnesses across trim levels and such for decades.  I pulled the blank accessory cover off of my commuter van (a 2016 or so Chevy 15-passenger) years ago and found the plug for a USB outlet.  It wasn't connected to anything, though (I tried swapping in an outlet from another van).  I was a GM Tech years ago (late-90s) and was pretty familiar with my 2006.  I might be wrong, but I view newer vehicles (pretty much anything made in the past 20 years) as being a lot more plug and play.  Meaning, more unused wires and plugs unless you have the Mack Daddy of vehicles.    
    • not all plugs will be used.  gm uses more generic harnesses that support most/all options, and if your truck doesn't have a specfiic option, the plug won't be used (commonly will have a dummy insert in the plug , or it'll be taped up, but some may just be left as is).  But it's sldo possible some p.o. has installed the wrong/cheaper parts that aren't correct for your vehicle...
    • First off, I'm not trying to just get easy advice/fixes for the issues I've noticed so far.  I'll be combing through the site via searches and such, and if past experiences are any indication, should find what I need.  For the sake of conversation, though, I figured I'd post the handful of things I've noticed in the 12 hours since buying my 2010 SLE CCSB.     Indicator lights: Airbag and TPMS.  The tire pressures aren't reading for any of the wheels, so I'm pretty certain the sensors were either removed, are damaged, or are otherwise inoperable.  I used to mount and balance tires 25 years ago but am pretty much ignorant when it comes to TPMS.  My 2006 didn't have the sensors and this might be the fourth vehicle I've owned that does.     Radio: Rear speakers aren't working.  I removed the driver's side rear door panel and checked the speaker and wiring.  I also removed the sill and b-pillar covers to check the wiring.  A few minutes of Google Fu showed that this is potentially a head unit issue.    Switches: Power mirrors don't turn left/right.  I ordered replacement driver's door switches that should arrive tomorrow.  The windows and locks work but it was only about $20 for all of them.  The driver's side rear window switch lets the window down but won't put it back up.  I think the passenger rear doesn't work at all.  In the coming days/weeks, I'll break out my multimeter to check all of that.   Unknown wiring harness: There's a box attached to the front driver's side of the engine compartment, right where the second battery shelf is located.  There are three plugs, one of which looks like it fits a standard headlight-style bulb (9007 or similar).  It doesn't look like it's plugged into anything.  I'll do some digging and if I don't see anything elsewhere on the site, post some pictures here.   Unknown plugs on brake booster: There are at least two female plugs on the brake booster that aren't being used.  I think it might be a replacement/aftermarket, so maybe those are used for a different application, as there don't seem to be any unplugged harnesses and no indicator lights are on.   Little squeaks when turning: Sounds almost like a bushing around the bed of the truck.  I'll have to pay close attention as I get more familiar with the truck.   Clunk on acceleration: possibly the infamous drivetrain clunk.  My 2006 had it and I'm just not familiar enough with this truck yet to fully grasp what it is.   Anyway, my apologies for the vague and all over the place post.  This truck is new to me, and it's been four years since I drove my 2006.  With 200k miles, I know I'll need to learn this truck quickly to avoid having any major issues, despite being confident it's got much more life to it.  My 2006 had nearly 320k on it when I parked it (nearly 300k of which I put on the truck), and it was still drivable then, though I suspected the head gasket might have blown.  I'd hoped to have that truck back by now, but it's gone forever, as I detailed in my reintroduction thread.
