We all know somebody is bound to do it. Or maybe have all-ready done it. Is it possible to put the At4 Grille on the Elevation trim? It sounds stupid of course no up-badging will be done it is still an elevation. I personally like the front end of a at4 with the fog light bezels and the grille. Im looking in to swapping it over but before i make any steps does anybody know anything that i maybe do not know about doing this. I Know ill need the grille and the bezels with the "upper bumper" but has this been done before? and is it even possible?

I was not able to post a image of what im talking about but if you search at4 front end and elevation you will see the difference around the fog lights. Thanks

Yup - it's possible.  Swapping the grill is definitely possible (I have an SLT grill on my WT trim).  It's a little bit of a PITA, but, it's do-able.  While swapping the grill, you need to remove the "piece under the grill / above the bumper", so if you could source one with the chrome fog bezel pieces, you can swap it at the same time.

 

Everything should be 100% interchangeable - no extra modifications required, based on my experiences.

Bezels could be different. Fog light bezels are not the same depending on year of his elevation

What year are bezels different?  New body up to 2021 should be the same, as far as my research went...

    • Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter. 
    • Cool to see another Vermonter!
    • I have changed oil and filter for years by starting a cold engine to warm oil up, let it run 5-10 minutes depending on temperature. Drain until it starts dripping, refill with quantity from owners manual or get it close.   
    • I changed the factory fill oil in the rear diff of my truck for the first time today and the miles is close to 9000 on the truck. There was a lot of fines on the magnet, a very thick layer but working it through my fingers it all felt like mush and as most know it appears like graphite, so no surprise chunks anyway. Certainly was time to do it from my thinking and could have been done sooner but the oil didn't look awful but sure wasn't new looking and never expected it to either. I did use some solvent to help me clean out the bottom area of the axle housing, just get any other stuff settled at the bottom washed and wiped out of the housing for the bit of effort it takes. I used Amsoil Severe Gear 75W90 in the easy packs to try out what they are like and I used up 4 packs and didn't spill much at all in the process but did take all four of the packs and go to the work bench and emptied them into a measuring container and there certainly was some in them that added up to something, then poured that into one of the easy packs and squirted in what I could get out of it. I would say the level is within 1/8th of an inch of being level with the threads at the fill plug so just the perfect amount. Once again, more than what GM says the fill volume is but computes with what others are adding to their rear diffs as well.
