I don't but I want one....I looked into getting one a while back, a place down here in Miami will install it into my HD for 1200 and change.....very tempting, but I have better things to spend the cash with, and I am so d**n afraid of it leaking. I would love one though, they should come from the factory as an option.

A local company puts sunroofs, leather seats, and other accessories in just about any kind of car or truck. They also work directly with new car dealers so you can have the options included in your financing. They also offered a warranty against defects and leaking as long as you own the car.

I have one. I got it through the dealer, but they send it out to a local place. The key is just to make sure that the installer is a pro. The install is top notch and looks like it came from the factory. One rocker switch in the overhead console that has 4 different functions/positions. We have gotten a bunch of rain this winter and it hasn't leaked a drop. Dealer markup on the sunroof was like $1500 and I negotiated it down to $1000, which I know is more than if you went directly to the installer yourself, but with 0% financing I just rolled it in to the cost of the truck. I think the had to keep it for a couple days for the install.

I just called my dealer down here and they gave me a book price of 1299....I'm wondering how workable that price is?? I might just have to do that. Although that's a big chunk of supercharger???? It would be nice to have the sun on my head though.

Its nice to have the sunroof, but not $1300 nice, IMO. I had the added benifit of using GMs money to pay for it, otherwise I probably would not have ended up doing it. I'd see if you can figure out who the Dealer sends the truck to (assuming they don't do it themselves), it wil be someone local and I bet you would be looking closer to the $800 that atomoverride found. Also check with the local aftermarket stereo shops. They'll either do it, or know a place that does.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By newdude · Posted

      This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By newdude · Posted

      2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.

      Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By newdude · Posted

      Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
