Mighty HD,

 

Great looking truck!! You can tell that it is definitely lifted!! Is it an 07? What brand of lift did you use and did you have any issues?

 

I have an 07 GMC 2500hd with the NNBS and have already purchased the Ranch lift and 33" tires but haven't installed them yet. Currently none of the aftermarket computer tuning companies make a computer programmer that will adjust for tire size with the new 6-speed 6L90-e transmission. So I can't decide to lift without compensating for the speed or wait for Superchips or Hypertech to release their tuning and be able to adjust the speed/ABS for the new tire size.

Thanks bud.

 

I went with a 6" superlift knuckle kit.

No real issues other than the shop's crap assed install. I ended up taking everything back out and doing it myself.

 

Don't waste your money on the plug-in tuners. Go with a Blackbear tune. Much better priced than Nelson, or anyone else.

Talk to justin.

 

If you have a laptop, you use the scan cable to download data from your truck as you drive it, send it to him, he makes a tune for your truck, sends you the PCM, log the data again, send for review or changes.

 

It beats the hell out of the others. I had a nelson and I can honestly say the blackbear is much better.

      I could be interested if they axed cylinder deactivation and at least have a button for stop start. I’m sure the HP numbers will be higher. I would want a longer warranty to help build confidence. I’m a less is more guy as I get older. A V-8 work truck model would be my choice. I know a few outfitters for custom additions I prefer.

      It's official. GMC pulled the covers off the next-gen 2027 Sierra 1500, and we got the first official look. Full breakdown here: https://www.gm-trucks.com/next-gen-2027-gmc-sierra-1500-v8-trim-changes/   The quick hits: SLE and SLT are dead. The new core retail trim is just called "Elevation". Two new V8s, a 5.7L and a 6.6L built with high-performance Corvette architecture roots. No horsepower or torque numbers yet. The 2.7 TurboMax finally ditches the old gearbox and gets the 10-speed automatic. AT4X moves to larger standard 35-inch tires with front and rear e-lockers, Multimatic DSSV dampers, and heavy-duty Jounce Control Dampers. Over 60 inches of combined display on Denali Ultimate and AT4X, complete with a motorized articulating center screen and an adaptive passenger screen. Seven simplified trims across the entire model line to clean up ordering confusion.   So let's get into it: New 5.7L and 6.6L gas V8s with custom active exhaust tuning and a Corvette connection. Is this the exact engine lineup half-ton traditionalists have been begging for? Purging the iconic SLE and SLT names after all these years to lean entirely on Elevation as the high-volume core. Bold move, or a mistake? That motorized articulating 16.3-inch screen that slides up to reveal a hidden dashboard vault. Awesome mechanical theater, or does it make you nervous about long-term durability? Physically lowering the headlamps in the front fascia to improve road courtesy and stop blinding oncoming traffic. Smart real-world engineering, or does it hurt the truck's aggressive stance? What trim are you putting your name down for on day one? Drop your first impressions below.

      My overnight hospital stay turned into five.  I developed a post operative fever and an erratic  heart rate.  A blood clot in the lungs was the culprit.  This is apparently a common post surgical complication and easily remedied.   I was the youngest in a four bed ward and a Doctor with a Geriatric specialization was in charge of my care.  All of the nurses were good and some were outstanding at dealing with old people.  It was very evident that my age triggered a different level of care!  My advice to any senior going for a hospital stay is to have a trusted family member advocate visible.  If not, you will still be well cared for, but you may discover that your voice  isn't as strong as it once was!
