I’ve had both the weathertech’s and the husky’s. I like the husky’s better. I currently just have the larger gm splash guards. Not as good as a full mud flap, but do pretty well.

Husky’s front and rear. Went on easy and fit well.  Make a big difference in how much snow and crap gets tossed up the side of the truck and up under the rear bumper and all that.

I had considered a Weather Tec or Husky or for that matter a similar looking plastic type formed mudflap that the Chevy dealer was selling through their aftermarket parts here in Canada but in the end I decided to to for more coverage and got what is referred to as kickback mudflaps and these ones are made in Alberta ( this company is called Bulletproof ) but there are various brands out there of off shore or USA made ones. They are more expensive and they are a combo stainless steel upper ( black powder coated available ) and heavy lower rubber flap and they hang down further which was what I was after for even better winter road and rock protection for the truck and if pulling a trailer.  

 

I just figured out that the dealer was in fact selling the Weather Tec flaps but they didn't name them as such but the part number is the same so they were just flogging them through their dealer aftermarket accessory system. If a person is not looking to get that much coverage, certainly the Whether Tec has a sleek formed look and not saying the Husky don't but they are a little different. However I believe one has to have the standard so called mudguards from the factory and not the optional longer hanging down plastic extended units as those I don't believe are compatible with some of these molded flaps, nor would those factory optional flaps have worked with these kick back flaps as they required the standard factory units to be compatible.

Scroll through the thread below.  I put both Huskies and the WT on my truck and ended up with the latter.  Both are much better than the GM accessories ones that I had on my previous three trucks.

I put RokBlokz mud flaps on my 2024. I had them on a previous truck and liked them. They bolt up using factory fender liner locations. I omitted their "mud flap delete" part that was included in the kit, because its was crappy 3Dprinted plastic that broke immediately while installing. But the flaps themselves are sturdy and will last for a long while. I just kept my OEM mud flaps in place and drilled some holes and used some spare hardware to secure the RokBlokz flaps to them.

      Joke Thread

      Fred was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young pullets, and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was replaced. This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing. Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the bells. Fred's favourite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but this morning he noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all! When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. To Fred's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one. Fred was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the City Show and he became an overnight sensation among the judges. The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize," but they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well. Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making. Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the unsuspecting populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention. Vote carefully in the next election, you can't always hear the bells.

      High Country Suburban build confirmation

      By 3CarSeatDad · Posted

      Can someone confirm if the GM order workbench terminal is able to validate a custom build sequence:   1) Initialize the Allocation Base: Open a new vehicle build queue, select the 2026 Chevrolet Suburban 4WD, and pick the High Country (3LZ Preferred Equipment Group).   2) Select the Diesel Powertrain: Go directly to the engine configuration screen and choose RPO code LZ0 (3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel). Ensure it maps to the MHS 10-speed automatic transmission.   3) Deploy the Seating Swap: Navigate to the Interior Options screen and enter RPO code ATT to replace the standard captain's chairs with the power-release 60/40 bench seat. Because you are not trying to force a separate luxury or air-suspension bundle, the standard, premium D07 Fixed Floor Console remains active. The system will accept this change immediately without triggering a warning message.   3)Apply Heavy-Duty Hauling Capability: Input RPO code NHT (Max Trailering Package). The commercial terminal will automatically bundle the required trailering hardware and software modules to support the diesel engine's maximum towing capacity.   5) Layer the Premium Tech and Glass: Separately add code C3U (Panoramic Power Sunroof) and code UKL (Super Cruise) to the order screen.   6) Run the Final Validation: Click the "Validate Order" button at the bottom of the interface.

      Looking at ordering a '26 WT because I want a std cab, std bed

      Spent the last hour or 2 googling and reading up on the spacer thing. I don't like the loss of thread contact on the slip on spacers, but it appears you can get "extended" lug nuts that reach into the hole of the wheel to get back the lost threads. Looks like the only true hubcentric slip on spacers are at least .375". I'd want as little as I could get away with and don't want to cause other clearance issues going any thicker. Bora seems to offer what appears to be a well made .375" spacer and extended lug nuts. I searched here and did find a couple threads recommending Bora. But not cheap. By the time I buy spacers and lugs, new TPMS sensors, then pay a tire shop to install the new sensors, I suspect I'm going to be in over $400. Thinking about running out and getting some washers to put behind the wheel to see if .375" is enough to clear calipers, turn lock to lock without rubbing, and to see if the wheels/tires look strange pushed out a little. This would just be to check fitment.

      Road Master Active Suspension

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      Roadmaster makes some quality parts; I have their sway bar. I considered the RAS, but I ended up bagging. I didn't know what kind of ride I'd get with RAS, and the bags have interior jounce bumpers, so I can run 0 pounds pressure. I figured I'd have the best of normal suspension ride with assist on-demand. But it seems you got pretty much the same in one item.
