I received my kit today for my '08 and it came with two 1/2" spacers and four 1/4" spacers. Shouldn't I have double that amount of spacers for both sides? Isn't it supposed to raise it up to 2"?

Don't worry, you have exactly what you need. The shims don't increase the height directly. They change the overall suspension geometry which ultimately will yield you just about the 2" of lift you'd expect.

  If I forget the phone in the truck, and forget the truck in the phone, and reconnect. It works great for the day. Truck sits overnight, and the next day is a no go. It will connect Android Auto via usb cable, but not bluetooth. Ive tried Everything in this thread so far, and nothing works for more than a day. I think I might have to go to the dealer and have them flash the pcm. thanks for all the suggestions guys. 👍
- primary drive belt tensioner
  
  By Bill Lemmond · Posted 15 minutes ago
  
  2022 2500HD Crew Z71 Duramax single alternator. Recently had the primary (water pump / fan) belt tensioner pulley bearing to fail while hundreds of miles from home of course the plastic pulley melted and belt shredded which took out some wiring. Found a replacement tensioner assembly and belt to continue now would like to find a replacement for just the pulley and bearing to have a spare assembly in case of a repeat, the rest of the tensioner is fine. Has anybody here found a correct replacement part for just the pulley and bearing? Any help is appreciated.

  +1 for the 3.0 Perfect for 1500 pickup towing duties. Perfect engine for a 1500 pickup period. Huge torque at stunningly low RPM makes it feel a lot lighter than it is. The fuel mileage is insane for a tall and heavy 1500... 30+ on the highway. Mid 20's around town. It's probably not perfect if you bought a 6.2 for the braaaaaaapppppp V8 noises and wrapping it out to 6k. The LZ0 acts and sounds like a small turbo diesel and there's nothing you can do to make a small turbo diesel sound like a big one, and you can't make an inline diesel sound like a V8 diesel/big Duramax. It's a different driving experience altogether. Drive one, I think you'll like it, though...

  I'll bet your truck lost the bearings on a roller on 1 of the lifters, and now is wiping out a cam lobe.
- "Reduced Acceleration, Drive with Care" message for Valve Body malfunction

  2024 2500 gasser with 47,000 miles. Driving on interstate Friday when my truck shudders, downshifts, and I get the above message with check engine light. Transmission would not upshift. I had to drive home 2 hours at 65 mph at 3600 RPM with transmission temps 190-200 degrees. Got it to the dealer Monday. They ran the code and said the #1 valve body was malfunctioning in the transmission. Miraculously, they had the part in stock and I had a new valve body installed that day with new transmission fluid/filter. Thankfully, all under warranty. Shout out to Everett Chevrolet in Hickory, NC.
