I got the upper and lower organizers for the center console the other day. The upper one is pretty decent, maybe the lower one will grow on me. There was a discount if you bought more than one piece so it was only $10 more. They are very well made and fit really well. The bottom one wedges in place right at the bottom. The top one has four little notches that keep it in place on the rails in the console. The little rubber non skid matts in the upper tray are nice and grippy and have a diamond plate design that looks pretty cool.  They are made by Vehicle OCD on Amazon.  Nice to have some organization in there now.

I did this to my last truck and it was extremely time consuming and difficult. But I didn’t know what I was doing back then.  This time I taped around it and sprayed them on the truck. It was actually

How are you liking this kit? Thinking of having it installed soon.

If you don't mind, how much was it installed?

I really like this kit. Great ride, great look. I also like that it has the replacement UCA’s. They are stronger and longer than stock, keeping the geometry fairly close to stock as well.

I’ve been running this kit for about 7k miles now, and it’s been great. No CV boot wear or any other issues. I would definitely recommend it.

The kit is about $650-700 depending on where you get it. I installed it myself on my garage floor, so I don’t know what it would be with labor. It took me a good 6 hours, but much of that was trying to compress the strut springs in front. But a pro with a lift and wall-mounted strut compressor can probably do the install in about 4.5-5 hours to give you an idea.

Thanks.

Got it ordered up today. I don't feel like messing with the springs so I'm having the shop install.

$1100 out the door with the alignment. Tires I have won't work with the control arms though, so I swapped the tires and got some new wheels too.... can't wait to see the finished product.

Agree - you will love the look - ride is same as stock.

 

Tire Rack sells AT4 SST RL kit for $510 - free shipping - 4-5 hours install cost   Mine was right about $1,000 - with install - alignment at dealer after $200 so $1,200 all in - So Cal labor rates are not the best - $125 at good shops.

Your're going to have a great time!  Congrats.  Here's what I've done to my 2019 AT4

  • Bakflip MX4
  • 2 coats Ceramic Coating applied
  • Tinted front windows
  • Installed Opt7 Tailgate LED's
  • Blacked-out (plasti-dip) badges except for red "4's"
  • Installed 'Rapture" style grill lights
  • Installed 7” “shorty” antenna
  • Installed Multipro tailgate LEDs
  • GM Performance CIA
  • Installed GM Factory black exhaust tips
  • Borla S-Type Exhaust
  • Calipers painted red
  • Installed Nitto RG 35x11.5x20 (on stock wheels)
  • Installed Undercover SwingCase Truck Bed Storage Box

Did install the Nittos on the 20” GMC rims with no lift?  Did you have to do some cutting for fit?

I’ve been wanting the Undercover SwingCases but last I checked they didn’t fit the AT4 due to the multipro tailgate.  Did you order the standard Sierra model that says w/o multipro tailgate and install?

Nitto RG's are on stock 20x9 rims.  No lift beyond stock AT4 setup.  Only had minor rub in front of drivers side and only in reverse at full lock.  Zip tied the bracket behind the liner to the fender mounts and rub is gone.  No cutting needed in my case.

 

I only purchased the passenger side SwingCase so don't recall there being any distinction.  Maybe drivers side would be a problem because of assist handle.

I have decided to go with the rough country 4” suspension lift instead of the level kit.

also switched to 295/65 Nitto ridge grapplers and black rhino stadium 20x9 wheels.

and switched to the rbp stealth power step bars instead of the amp research ones.

 

planning on plasti dipping the front and back gmc emblems, the Sierra on the tailgate, all at4 emblems and the chrome exhaust tips.

 

i also plan on removing the valance.

Mind posting pics when you finish your plasti dip? Only thing that worries me about going with a lift is losing my ability to park in a garage.

will do.  i was worried about the garage as well.  my cousin has a ram truck that has a 6" lift and we measured his truck to the top of his room antenna and it was at 82"  i think my at 4 with a 4" lift will be roughly same height.  in which case most garages i think are 7 ft.   i only go to a garage at the airport or to Pelicans games at the arena.  the airport has a brand new garage and have huge clearances.  the superdome garage is old and low so i may have issues there. but i figured who cares this truck is going to look bad ass and i will just take my wifes car to the games...

Will these fit the consoles with the lock box?

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Thanks - I wasn't quite caffeinated this morning. 2:1 makes sense, turning the crankshaft 360 degrees will turn the cam 180 degrees, and had I done that, the cam's dot would be at 6 and the crank's at 12 again.   I went ahead and took the sprocket off anyway, aligned everything dot-to-dot including the balance shaft just for s&g. I'm glad I did because I discovered no Loctite on the timing sprocket bolts. Maybe it's not required, but at only 20 ft-lb torque spec, those bolts aren't in there very tight. Cleaned and reassembled with some thread locker and torqued.   A general observation: Less is more with RTV. If a little doesn't stop a leak, a LOT probably won't, either. RTV is thinly veiled revenge, in a tube...

      The timing marks are ok, that is #1, you can turn it over until they line up and it won't change anything, the crankshaft turns twice for every camshaft revolution, I have always set up SB Chevs as your pic shows using a straight edge

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Someone's been here before.... There is a receipt for a 3-piece timing set, purchased earlier this year.   Is this picture something, or, nothing?   I have the timing cover off and my crank is perfectly TDC and the keyed gear's locating mark is dead on 12 o'clock.   The cam gear locating mark is also at 12 o'clock. Now, I'm not an expert, but all the install guides say the two locating marks should meet and be perfectly aligned when installing a timing set. The mark on the crank should be dead on 12:00 and the cam gear's mark should be dead on 6:00, and both marks should be perfectly vertically aligned.   I believe the timing gear is keyed or has a dowel that ensures it can only be installed on the cam in one position, so I have to believe the cam is out of phase somehow. At the very least, with a triangular bolt pattern, it can only be installed in one of 3 different positions.   Before I pulled the front cover, the truck was running alright, no service engine soon lights except an occasional P0172 / rich condition. Timing -16 timing at idle (should be +16), and total -35% fuel trim, two conditions I haven't been able to figure out.   In related news, my injector tested pretty well, wasn't leaking, but I had it rebuilt anyway, and it's on it's way back to me.         Along with this discovery, the good and bad:   Good: The oil pan seal appears undamaged.   Bad: -The timing cover has been reused, and the positioning dowels have been broken. That could explain some of the leaking. -Some kind of white paste or grease was used to try to seal the oil pan seal and timing cover (since wiped off..). -Then, someone globbed silicone all over the front of the cover and also buried the ckp sensor in it. But, they didn't put any inside the cover or use RTV to try to seal the oil pan seal with the timing cover (good).

      PF63 Oil Filters Going Away?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      The guy that owns K&P filters last I checked in with him has over 300,000 miles on his Dodge base Hemi using his own 35 micron absolute stainless mesh filter from its first oil change.    The GM study I've posted a dozen times shows the relationship in engine life based in multiples of base units, not miles or years. That is the base unit is the number of miles the motor ran using the reference filter efficiency.    The above two paragraphs dismantle anecdotal arguments IF one changes oil often enough to prevent particle formation and the motor is in otherwise good shape. That is not full of silica (no air filter) or suffering a metallurgical issue that is not part of the lubrication discussion. Poor heat treat in example.   Data from UOA's I've reviewed from more than a few engines can show remarkably broad variations in oil cleanliness using the exact same filter over the course of an engines life.     Lastly there is the common sense of it. Wear debris WILL circulate the engine BEFORE it ever sees a filter in route to that filter and WILL harm the pump which NEVER sees filtered oil.    Alpha question then becomes, given the facts, how long do you believe is a reasonable service life from a vehicle you are certain you will not pass down? That is the junk yard will be it's resting place when you're done with it? (the moral issue most don't care about).    Omega question is then how diligent are you prepared to be in general mechanical, air & oil maintenance? Preventing particulates and keeping them sufficiently dilute; preventing the precursors from generation, amalgamation and precipitation.    If I get a good look at the engine bay of a vehicle I have a fair idea of the owners commitment to the inside of the power train. That 30 micron WIX is still more efficient than a sieve.

      It also depends on what criteria someone is using for “best” when talking filters.  Are we going off best efficiency?   Best quality/QC?  Etc. because the two may not mutually exclusive.
