I have been told that the fitment on the GM liners is better and the install is easier. My son added them to his Custom 2022.  If your going to add them I would suggest dry fitting them and then

Thank you 64BAWagon ! Before we drove it home off the lot I got then to check the rear diff to make sure it was topped up not sure if they did the front but will have them check again with oil change

Any of you fellas go with aftermarket fender liners lets say Husky Brand ? They are plastic opposed to the felt type OEM product . Do think the plastic would be better than  the felt ? I'm thinking the felt would be a bigger to wash mud off and then would snow cake on the felt more . not that we get a lot of snow in Southwest B.C. 

Thanks

I have husky plastic in the rear and factory felt in front. Doesn’t matter to me but I will say the felt holds little pieces of sand and grass and stuff. The plastic doesn’t but I don’t care much either way

I explained it once before. Very simple. You click the add files box below the place you type your message. Than click photo library from the pop up and choose the pics from your phone.

I think the stock ones have a little more sound dampening ability than some of the solid plastic ones. Probably not much though. I agree that they are sometimes difficult to get all the debris off of.

Hi Pryme . Yes you did explain previously and I followed your instructions but when I go to post from my phone it says file is too large . Tried to downsize it and no luck . I have posted to other Forums photos of the truck from my Imgur account and no problems . Not sure why its a problem here

I have been playing with trying to post pictures here. Pryme has been trying to help me but still having problems posting from my phone . I did however manage to get this one from my computer  as it did not exceed the file size . If I can figure out how to shrink a file I will put a couple more up

I went with husky. 
they mount under the stock ones so you can see how inadequate the stockers are compared to the husky’s. 
the stock ones do nothing in winter where as these husky’s kept wayyy more slop off my doors and side steps and up under the rear bumper etc. super easy install and very secure.

      Cam chain tensioner question

      By B14Sierra · Posted

      So I'm in the middle of a DOD AFM delete on my 6.2 L86 Sierra. I had a pick holding the tensioner but after I got the Cam phaser gear off I was cleaning off all the rtv and apparently I didn't have the pick seated far enough in. I bumped it and the tensioner sprang forward.  I think everything is good but I want a second opinion. The top of the tensioner is just a looped piece of plastic that rides in that channel right? There is no spring or anything is there? I got the gear and chain back on and it seems tight and everything looks right. I'm hoping nothing fell out.

      No low range 4 x 4

      By dna9656 · Posted

      My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions.

      summer road trips in the 2026 2500HD

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that.
