Looking to switch from the larger tow mirrors to the small mirror. Is it even possible?

It could've been order that way, so depending on options, I see no reason the non tow mirrors can't be swapped in place.

I did order it that way in 2022. When the dealer reordered it as a 24 they ordered it wrong. The only options are heated and power adjust.

Just power glass and heat?  Any lighting?  Blind spot indicators?

Blinker too

 

 

Gotcha.

 

There is a factory small mirror for HD that can be had.  84817038 (pass) and 84817037 (driver) for the mirrors.  DLN mirrors are power glass and heat.  No lights/signals, no power fold.  You also need 84732427 and 84732426 upper covers.  Those are the same finish as the mirrors, but you could also use one of the accessory mirror cap kits 84328137 (chrome), 84328136 (gloss black) or 84612941 (Summit White).  

 

If ordering new ones, as far as the mirrors go, 84817037 is on national backorder.  To have any GM outlet (dealer or parts page) order, they will need a VIN that has that mirror as equipment on the build.  Here's one you should be able to use - Chevy Silverado 2500 HD | Vehicle Listing Details | Vehicle Locator (chevrolet.com)

 

If you give them your VIN, it will kick back in GM's system saying that part is not applicable to your VIN.

Will the passenger side will have the temperature sensor in it as well ?

Yes.  These are the only small mirror they make for HD so they will be for both gas and diesel applications.

I don't want to be a pain. Is the wiring harness going to be the same on both trucks? Is there any place I can check with both Vin numbers?

 

 

Going to small mirrors you should be able to reuse the existing door wiring yes.

Finally got My mirrors. Tried the right one with the sensor first, started truck a couple times, seemed to be working temp, Adjust. So went ahead and changed the other side. Started truck Temp said -40 and the check engine light was on. Started it a few times and same thing. Unhooked the battery for a few minutes and everything seems fine now. Does this sound normal?

    • There would be one way of determining the quality of the factory oil although probably more than a typical oil lab test, and that would be to draw out some oil from a new truck and send a sample to a lab that could do a more elaborate test of the oil. The issue with too little oil in the diff may not be the lack of lubrication of the diff bearings and gears themselves ( although a lack of oil volume for cooling ) but the wheel bearings because at some point the oil would be too low to properly get onto the spinning axle or fed along the axle tube. That was the claim by the local dealer from a couple of trucks in recent years that had the wheel bearings fail and they figured from lack of sufficient oil due to a severe underfilled diff and some of the bearing material made its way to the diff and it got damaged as well so the axle housings were just replaced on warranty. But your right that if the diff is over filled by whatever margin that it causes more churning of the oil than is desirable and that is no good either and can cause a pinion seal to leak. Also old oil I believe can tend to loose some of its properties like antifoaming and another good reason to change the diff oil every so often. 
    • I would be surprised if the diff's were not filled (with the cheapest gear lube) at the axle factory before being shipped to GM.  If you ever watched them building trucks they install the axles and all suspension parts with the frame upside down and then turn it over before its time to install the engine.     Too much gear lube in a axle can be worse than not enough especially with a lower quality GL where is get whipped up with entrained air (foam)  weakening its ability to lubricate.        
    • This is the 6.6 gasser section of the forum, you should either delete or modify your previous post as it is misleading for anyone looking for factual information on their 6.6 gas engine.
    • Well....I've done my first intake gasket. Probably wrong, but...we'll see?   Ultra black on the china walls and 1/4" up onto the sides of the intake gaskets. Permatex High Tack (couldn't find Gaskachinch) on the head side of the intake gasket. I read wrong and it says you're supposed to put it on the mating surface of the head, not the gasket. Hoping it's like a PB&J sandwich where it doesn't matter what side the PB goes on so long as there's jelly. That crap is messy/sticky and I got a dab or two on the intake port openings, tried to wipe it off. Hopefully it won't be a big deal and will only aid in sealing.   Per instructions I left the intake (top side) of the gasket dry except for a light smear of RTV around the coolant ports. Wiggling the intake in there was a bear but I had help to free me of surrounding wiring/stuff but I was basically able to set it straight down lined up with the bolt holes.   I did not think to wait until the RTV skinned over but there probably was 5-10 minutes while it sat before installing the intake.   Bolts finger tight first. Then, followed the Chilton's manual pattern to snug them to 15 lb-ft.   Waited a little over an hour, and then did the final torque in sequence again to 35 lb-ft.   Yesterday I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and got my new "nut and bolt kit" (fuel lines) installed. Damn GM used security torx on the spider, which I don't have, so I got scammed at the local HW store for an off-brand security Torx bit set.   The new driver's door mirror arrived yesterday, so, there's a chance this thing could be running and road legal tomorrow? I don't want to get my hopes up.   This will be my first time stabbing a distributor, too. Although, lucky me, someone else marked the old distributor for removal previously, I did see that. (Someone's been here before!!). Engine is still at TDC so it *should* be just a matter of transferring the mark to the new dizzy and rotating it into place.
    • He has his dad’s newer truck he’s put away. He has several old cars he rotates between him and his family. I’ve seen a restored square body and a SS Chevy truck he’s sometimes drives. He did raffle off a new suburban recently. As much as he is watched if he drove new stuff as a rule we’d know it. It would be fine by me. I don’t care what people prefer. I got one more new one in me. I’d rather my wife get one. I can’t get her out of the Genesis. Don’t tell anyone. I want her to get an electric truck. I want to put a generator in the back. Just because. She hasn’t bit yet.
