When I bought it the dealer said it would not fit, probably a sales pitch to buy the slt or higher trim but I can measure mine if you'd Ike and we can compare

I’m interested for the Silverado side of things. Noticed they added it this year to the higher trims. Stepdad has it on Sierra. Wife and I love it. He uses his all the time. If it’s not too pricey and able to. Would love to switch to this on my truck.

I thought someone here priced out the parts new and it’s like a $3000 tailgate plus paint. Probably why it hasn’t been done. Cheaper to trade the truck.

There’s some HD take offs on eBay for $2850 and $3200. Those aren’t the same as the 1500 tailgates though. Also a dented black one that someone dropped on their hitch for $2400. I dunno, maybe I’m the only one who thinks this is stupidly expensive to attempt. No telling that the thing even plugs in and works either. I’m sure the BCM is involved in its operation.

Ya I agree with OnTheReel with this one. I’m interested but if it’s gonna be around $3k. I’ll wait 3 years and buy a new left over 2023 with all of it plus super cruise and updated interior.

July 2020 i bought a lightly damaged 1500 multiflex tg . rebuilt it with new GM parts and installed on my 19RST , all good except the upper tg accuators will not function. power and ground is good switch is good. Dec. 20 traded19 for a 21 with 3.0 duramax. installed tailgate, same issue. Jan. 21 my GM dealer says its a bcm issue and GM won't release program info because the Chevy Mflex Tg has not been officially released yet.  going to try and bypass the bcm.for upper accuators. The 19+ trucks owner manuals show the fuse locations for the MP/ MF TG's and the fuse blocks have all fuses except one on the 19,  21 has all fuses in place.   also FYI the new body style tailgates are not interchangeable from 1500 to 2500 etc . the 2500 Tg's are about an inch shorter in height and will not line up at the latch's since they are shorter...neither pieces of the 2500 MF TG's are  interchangeable to a 1500.  

any info on getting the complete TG to function properly will be greatly appreciated.

has any one checked to see if a new body style 2500 hood will fit a NBS 1500 truck? or has anyone fitted a 2500 oem hood scoop on their 1500?

      TCM Tuning 6L80E

      I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.

      Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.

      Bridgestone vs Goodyear tires?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires.

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

      Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉
