I have neither the traction control or 4x4. Instead there is a useless little cubby thing there. I would like to install the holder for the switches, as well as four blanks and then install my own switches for lights, etc... Could someone provide me with the part numbers for both the blanks and the switch holders?

FROM WHAT YOU ARE SAYING, YOU HACE A CUBBY ON THE LEFT SIDE OF YOUR STEERING WHEEL WHERE NORMAL ON A 4X4 TRUCK YOU WOULD HAVE 1-1/2 BY 4 INCH PLACE FOR 4X4 SWITCH

Exactly, except it is only about 1 inch wide, 4 inches tall, and maybe 1 inch deep. I want to replace it with the switch panel, but with 4 blanks and no switches.

I WILL CHECK TO SEE IF GM HAS PART # FOR IT, BUT I THING THE ONLY 2 OPIONS WERE A CUDDY OR 4X4 SWITCH, HAVE YOU SEEN ONE THAT HAS A FILLER PANEL THERE

No, I have not, but 4x4's without traction assist has at least one empty slot. Just as the 2x4's with traction assist have 3 empty slots. I was hoping that I could just get the blank. However, if it is not available, I guess it will be fabrication time.

 

No matter, that "cubby" is the most useless thing I have ever seen. I kind of wonder why they did not just make a flat panel for that area (which is what I actually want).

holder no. 15040483

blank no. 15734687

 

That is one big blank on the top and two smaller blanks on the bottom that are removeable.

your pics have to be hosted by a photo hosting site (like photobucket.com or most IPs provide free hosting space.

Once hosted, you supply the URL tag from the hosted pic to the IMG window on your post and then it will show up on here.

The pic is for the cubby where the Onstar, etc... goes. I am looking for the one on the left (drivers side) of the steering column.

Oh, for that area you only have the choice of factory switches or the cubby hole.

      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.
