Well this weekend we went into the Boulder mountains in Utah and got to test her ability default_smile.png Didn't get an elk, but had a great weekend camping and listening to the elk bugling in the morning. Hubby has an H1 so he wanted to teach me a few things on flexing and slowly crawling up rocks.

 

He guided me up the rock, and while the pictures might not do it justice it was a little scary putting my new truck into that position LOL! Jumping out to take the pictures wasn't easy, and climbing back in without steps was even more of a challenge haha!

 

BUT! This trip so makes me want to put some more offroad-ish shocks and tires on her, it was so fun!14ed97ad72f3a88c6b93e733f20cb9e3.jpg2d248bac0a46686afb4cee01b6eb866f.jpgaf3d6cd22a9c616510faea857df62fd5.jpg1505d04f2949b2137988137776a1a804.jpg6a6d8894be643a40cccf720b28d97103.jpgcf70fe9c28dbcb742586a568b0a93c5b.jpg3171387f526c049623166eb8ff80796c.jpgd8ce7fc4d954a1e61f3c516ce26c5b96.jpge3cdb132e983647a2eed70e5e15d39b9.jpg

Interesting.  I've had mine flexed like that several times and it hasn't leaked.  I am assuming you believe the window shifts or flexes when the frame stressed, resulting in eventual improper sealing?

Tried to do the same thing with my non-trailboss LT this weekend. Definitely more motivated to invest in a small lift now. Although, it still wasn't maxed out on articulation yet. Needed a bigger rock/hill.

There is no evidence body flex or what is seen in those pictures cause the window leak issue.

Mine is a pavement queen and has leaked three times. There are others that go off road like above and never leak.

Had it Colorado this last week, didn't take any pics with extreme flexing, but we spent several hours driving on mountain side trails, also confirmed you can hit 115mph, about 112mph the top speed cutoff starts kicking in, with momentum getting to the 115 mark. 1945 miles over 7 days, 5+ hours of trails, 50+ photo stops, hours of idling, lots of side road and highway driving i ended up at 17.6 mpg with the 6.2, quite happy with that.

I'm no offroader, but I'm guessing if you continued forward off that rock you could do some serious damage  to your rocker....   best to back off, yes?

Yes, anyone would be silly to try and go over that rock. This was just a flex pose. :)

      Fred was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young pullets, and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was replaced. This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing. Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the bells. Fred's favourite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but this morning he noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all! When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. To Fred's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one. Fred was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the City Show and he became an overnight sensation among the judges. The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize," but they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well. Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making. Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the unsuspecting populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention. Vote carefully in the next election, you can't always hear the bells.

      High Country Suburban build confirmation

      By 3CarSeatDad · Posted

      Can someone confirm if the GM order workbench terminal is able to validate a custom build sequence:   1) Initialize the Allocation Base: Open a new vehicle build queue, select the 2026 Chevrolet Suburban 4WD, and pick the High Country (3LZ Preferred Equipment Group).   2) Select the Diesel Powertrain: Go directly to the engine configuration screen and choose RPO code LZ0 (3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel). Ensure it maps to the MHS 10-speed automatic transmission.   3) Deploy the Seating Swap: Navigate to the Interior Options screen and enter RPO code ATT to replace the standard captain's chairs with the power-release 60/40 bench seat. Because you are not trying to force a separate luxury or air-suspension bundle, the standard, premium D07 Fixed Floor Console remains active. The system will accept this change immediately without triggering a warning message.   3)Apply Heavy-Duty Hauling Capability: Input RPO code NHT (Max Trailering Package). The commercial terminal will automatically bundle the required trailering hardware and software modules to support the diesel engine's maximum towing capacity.   5) Layer the Premium Tech and Glass: Separately add code C3U (Panoramic Power Sunroof) and code UKL (Super Cruise) to the order screen.   6) Run the Final Validation: Click the "Validate Order" button at the bottom of the interface.

      Looking at ordering a '26 WT because I want a std cab, std bed

      Spent the last hour or 2 googling and reading up on the spacer thing. I don't like the loss of thread contact on the slip on spacers, but it appears you can get "extended" lug nuts that reach into the hole of the wheel to get back the lost threads. Looks like the only true hubcentric slip on spacers are at least .375". I'd want as little as I could get away with and don't want to cause other clearance issues going any thicker. Bora seems to offer what appears to be a well made .375" spacer and extended lug nuts. I searched here and did find a couple threads recommending Bora. But not cheap. By the time I buy spacers and lugs, new TPMS sensors, then pay a tire shop to install the new sensors, I suspect I'm going to be in over $400. Thinking about running out and getting some washers to put behind the wheel to see if .375" is enough to clear calipers, turn lock to lock without rubbing, and to see if the wheels/tires look strange pushed out a little. This would just be to check fitment.

      Road Master Active Suspension

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      Roadmaster makes some quality parts; I have their sway bar. I considered the RAS, but I ended up bagging. I didn't know what kind of ride I'd get with RAS, and the bags have interior jounce bumpers, so I can run 0 pounds pressure. I figured I'd have the best of normal suspension ride with assist on-demand. But it seems you got pretty much the same in one item.
