Sure why not, for a total of about $200 why not, so this will add to my Nav system project i bought 2 days ago... :rolleyes:

Thats pretty cheap for 2 HID kits plus a leveling kit. What you get?

 

 

VVme.com's H11 and 880 6000k Hid kit ($130 shipped) and a RC 2" level kit ($50 shipped) :rolleyes:

 

on a second note, I just looked at my side profile and i noticed im one of the first thousand members on here. what are we up to now?

Ok real newbie question, but I thought the 9005 were the bulb # for the fogs. What are the 880's for?

 

PS I am member #57711

the 9005's are the high beam bulbs, H11's are Low's. The 880's are for the fog lights. i had to use the same HID bulb with my GM foglights i installed in the Z, pretty funny these 880's work for GM vehicles

where'd ya find the RC kit for $50. cheapest i've located is $75ish... if i could get one for $50 it would be done....

 

on Ebay i did a search and found several where you could make a "best offer" and bartered the price :lol:

The fog lights are not 880's. They are PS24W's and you'll have to mod the new 880's to fit into the housings. I used 9005 bulbs and modded those. I think I recall someone using 880's once but I can't say for sure. Check my sig for links to the fog light mod. Plenty of pictures and info in there. Good luck. :lol:

Yes, i stand corrected the Fog bulbs from sylvania lamp replacement guide say 5202 which are probably PS24W's (converted PN#), but not wanting to purchases new stock bulbs then modify them for HIDs (nice job thinking out of the box though Daddy!!) I will throw a little 2 minute epoxy on the housing and seal them with silicone to ensure water-tightness since the 880's will slide into the stock house without modding the base. But yes tobyb2580 used the 880's

Do the 880's work with the stock wiring harness?

 

I am waiting for them to arrive to verify, if not ill just wire them up. I'll keep everyone posted.

Please do let us know as I wanna throw a kit in my 08 Sierra but wanna do the fogs at the same time if i can.

 

Now I just gotta figure out how the Low beams will run with the DRL-auto lights.

pull the DRL fuses #31 and #33 (is it both? can some one confirm? I pulled both today and the drl don't come on but the auto still works) you shouldnt have a prob. with the auto

    • It is possible to add your own 12v outlet to your truck.  Check out this video:   I verified via GM Upfitters that pin 31 is the same on the 1500 trucks.  The wire is GM part number 84779405.   You can get the GM 12v outlet from Amazon  https://www.amazon.com/Genuine-Accessory-Receptacle-25774623-13549530/dp/B0F1H9YRGF EWAY 12 Volt Power Adapter for GM   https://www.amazon.com/EWAY-Chevrolet-Silverado-Cigarette-Ignition/dp/B0915RRW6Q/ref=sr_1_1?   I just haven't figured out a good place to put the 12v outlet in my truck.   Some people are getting USB-C to 12V adapters  https://www.amazon.com/WYMECT-Cigarette-Lighter-Socket-Adapter/dp/B0F87WNQKB/ref=sr_1_1_sspa? Not sure if they provide the correct amperage that a device like a tire inflator would need.  
    • Thanks; I looked there a few minutes, and I think I can find something. I really never looked there, as I thought it was stuff like PTO/aftermarket bodies/accessories like snow plows.
    • 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.  
    • 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. 😉
