I installed the Weathertech Extreme Duty floor liners/mats yesterday in my 2008 GMC Sierra and they fit as tight as OJ's leather gloves!!! The only thing I'm a little dissappointed in is that the rear floor liner doesn't extend over the door sills like the front mats do which looks a little weird but overall I am very happy with them. They don't slide around while your driving which is a plus, the last set of universal rubber mats I had in there always slid around and I was constantly readjusting them before I got into the truck. These floor liners/mats are pretty pricey but once you get them installed you realize they are well worth the money spent. I removed the Weathertech decals that were on the mats to give it a cleaner apperance. As always pics are below.

I put in a set in my truck as well. They do fit nice.

I had a set of Husky's in my YukonXL, but the Weathertechs fit much better.

i bought some of these through cabelas. i love the drivers side because it has an anchor. but the passenger side just slides all over when people get in. im thinking about adding some velcro to the under side to help.

I have them in my truck and never installed the anchor in the drivers side. All pieces fit so tight there is no room to move around unless they are really kicked around. Tell your passengers to stop kicking them around or they'll have to ride in the bed. :lol:

I got these a couple weeks ago to replace my husky mats and was proud with the fit from the start but they do move around quite a bit on my drivers side and the raised sides by the pillar is caving in sorta towads the center. I think i am also going to have to add velcro to keep them in place. I made the mistake of trying a quick fix with duct tape and it worked but then when i took the mat out to clean it , the duct tape left a sticky mess on the pillar

did you order them from cabelas or did you pick them up? if you need to heat them up why not get a heat gun from Walmart ? i bought one from them when i needed to heat some heat shrink tubing.

The ones in my truck fit like perfectly and don't move at all.

I've only had them since June though.

ron i think i paid about $25.00 for the two heat seting heat gun. i needed one to do some wiring work on a car. it can get REAL hot. were you able to just pick them up or did you order them on line?

Just my 2 cents, because it sound like a lot of you like these WeatherTech's, as did I once. My experience with these was not all good. They look and fit great, however, they tend to move around a lot. More importantly, keep an eye underneath the sill plates. These liners allow liquids to drain onto the sill plates between the door seals which seeps down under the sill plates. I pulled my sill plates off to vacuum underneath and I found a whole lot of salt build up along with corrosion.

 

I switched to HuskyLiner's because of the lip on the sides to keep the liquids in. I just have to dump them out every now and then. Also, the HuskyLiner's have a bunch of little prickly nubs underneath to prevent them from sliding around.

 

The HuskyLiner's may not look as nice as the WeatherTech's, but they seem to work better for me.

      2019+ Brake failure, it's complicated

      By needafix · Posted

      I'm not sure if this should be a new topic, let me know if it's out of place. This my first post. Thanks 85077522 - AC Delco GM Genuine Parts Brake Master Cylinders. Anyone else had to replace this brake master cylinder yet. I didn't do any brake work, it looks like new parts and I've had the truck for about 4k miles, 119k total miles.  When it started to throw codes I did the calibrations with a bidirectional scanner and got the codes to clear but they came back so I did the routine; base bleed, automated bleed and final base bleed. All that with Bosch ES16-32N fluid (please look it up). That seemed to fix it but 100ish miles later it failed again so I ran the same process but with a pressure bleeder this time and got the same results, fixed for 100ish miles. The original fluid looked bad and I thought I got most of it out, it could've been the wrong fluid. The codes; P25A2, C05B0-00, C2A1B. I can get them to clear but not for long. The C05B0 indicates a leak in the front circuit (which is bone dry) so I'm thinking of doing the bleed process on that front again today and I don't know if that's taboo to just do the front but at this point it seems like it's worth the try anyway. The new master cylinder/module unit is supposed to get here today. But now I'm pretty much convinced this install is over my head. I've called several shops and some mobile guys that I know but this thing is like radio active material, scary wise. I did get 2 local shops say they should be able to do it, one says he has the SPS2 programing capability. And with the battery disconnected is there supposed to be pedal resistance, mine is to the floor, then if I pump it I can get some resistance. I had a panic stop prior to this issue which may have contributed from what I read. And on the first attempt to bleed and hydraulic test the scanner listed things to look for and one was any gaps between the pad and rotors which I did notice on the RF corner and I removed the outer pad (where the gap was) cleaned it and the hardware and didn't see a gap after that but will re-check it. I read that if pushing the caliper pistons back then you're supposed to open the bleeder so as to not push fluid backwards into the abs module or it will damage it. If that's true then that's also a possibility from the previous owner having the brakes changed before I got it. I'm using an XTool ip500 scanner. Any suggestions, questions and comments welcome.

      Next Friday will be my 6 week point from my right knee replacement.  The surgeon says it will be fine if I choose to drive after this checkup.  I know I could drive now but best to do as my surgeon (and my wife) tell me.  Richard compared being 62 to 72.  I remember when I was in my early 60's I was experiencing slow but regular decline in my mobility.  Thanks to good medical support,  i continued to fight the speed and spread of this decline. During my 60's I worked on non-surgical methods and just when I turned 70, my orthopedic surgeon recommended joint replacements.  In a little over a year, I had one shoulder and both knees replaced.  This hasn't been a terribly fun experience, but worth the discomfort as my future mobility health trajectory has reversed.  It is a treat to now be watching my mobility. balance and confidence steadily improve!
