2015 GMC Sierra 1500 DOD Lifter Replacement

[mamarinelli]

I have a 2015 GMC with a collapsed lifter. The DOD has not been deleted and to keep the repair reasonably cheap and quick I am looking to replace the entire set of lifters only.

I am not interested in swapping cam and doing AFM/DOD delete kit at this time. 

 

It seems like most of the parts I am finding online are geared toward using the AFM/DOD kit and standard lifters. I am having a hard time finding a reputilble brand that carried the DOD style lifter kit that is compatible with the 2015 L83 LT motor.

 

Can someone please recommend a brand that sells the set im looking for?

The repair kits without replacement cams are at the bottom of the page. I recently used their DoD Delete kit and was very happy with the quality of the parts.

- Adding the high-pressure fuel lines and 8 non-DoD lifters to the kit is also an option.

I suggest replacing the Exhaust and Intake Manifold Gaskets. If you plan on removing the VLOM, then I would also replace that gasket.

I hope this helps.

So I can replace with a DOD delete kit without replacing the cam? I dont see that as an option on that site?

You stated that you are only interested in replacing the lifters. If you decide to replace the lifters, then one of the REPAIR kits below would work. Of course, verify the year and engine are correct before purchasing.

 

Hopefully this helps.

Thank you! Just bought their kit. Exactly what I was looking for and the pricing seems fair considering these replacement DOD lifters are pretty costly.

Glad to help. Below is a list of additional items that I replaced. I've heard you can reuse the valve cover and intake gaskets, but I didn't want to take the chance of them failing. I'd rather have it and not need it then need it and not have it. 

 

- Valve Cover Gaskets

- Intake Gaskets

- Exhaust gaskets

- VLOM Gasket (you shouldn't need this since your not plugging the DoD oil passages)

- Oil (8 quarts) and Oil Filter 

- Plugs

- Wires

- All Belts 

 

I'm sure I can dig up part numbers if you want them.
