Does GM offer an under body shield kit yet for a 2019+ 1500? I’m looking to get just the front metal skid plate to replace the plastic one for an AT4. 
 

I just added GM full metal skid plates to my wife’s K2 Yukon Denali.

I ran across this kit that is a metal skid plate and replaces the front plastic piece if you go with that option. It's not cheap, but I may go with only the skid plate at some point as I don't really like the looks of the valence.

For my Silverado I bought a metal OEM one from the dealer (I went to the lot, found a truck with a metal one, pulled the VIN and asked for a new skid plate "shield")

 

PN: 23385004 

 

I believe that it was $50. well worth it since my plastic one cracked in a few places. $46 at GMpartsdirect

That's only the bottom one and not the front piece. My Trail Boss already has the bottom metal piece. I don't know of any trucks having the front piece from the bumper to the cross member that is metal. The one I posted above is the only one I've found that will work with the stock suspension and bumper. All the other ones are for an aftermarket bumper or only work with a specific lift kit.

Agree, my Sierra AT4 already has the flat metal skid plate on front bottom as well. What I'd like to do is make the front end look like the Yukon AT4 by adding the angled front plate that goes between the recovery hooks on the '21 Yukon AT4. I may just buy one and see how it goes. But was curious if anyone had done this yet, or investigated it, before risking the $$.

I'm looking for the same thing.  I saw that Mazulla offroad one and its amazing looking! Only problem is that I have to have one for the 3.0 L Duramax and it won't fit it.

I was in my dealer showroom the other day and they had a new full tilt lifted, etc., AT4 on the showroom floor.  I ran around the front to see what they did about skid plates and it was BDS from the bumper to the 3rd member.  My guess is GM hasn't done much in the area with the Sierra AT4.

On all of my prior GMC and Chevrolet vehicles, I’ve been able to obtain Metal Skid Plates by searching for Police vehicle options online and through the dealer. I don’t know about your vehicle year being available, but that’s where I’d start looking. Search PPV SSV options for your year GM. It should be the same from a Tahoe PPV/SSV to a Sierra. Should.

There is actually a Silverado SSV for the 19+ model years. I don't think it has any special skid plates though from the info I've looked at from the ordering guide I found.

I've also been looking for skid plates for my Denali 1500.  I think I cracked the lower front plastic one by driving through deep wet snow last winter.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
