    Detailed parts diagram for the 5th gen 1500?

    I looked around in Mitchell1 a bit. For a 21MY, info regarding accessories is very limited at the moment. It does give an R&R procedure, but no part numbers are mentioned for the module or harnesses.

    GM26J, specifically what parts are you looking for? I have access to Mitchell and don't mind looking around for you.

    Exhaust Manifold Leak

    Mine started this past Friday evening. Turned out to be a broken bolt at the rear of the manifold. Was a dead giveaway when I saw the heatshield vibrating. I'm right at 36K, but was easier for me just to fix it vs letting warranty cover it. Was able to remove the broken portion fairly easily...

    What does everyone do for a living?

    I would have to water them waaaay down to post them on here. It's probably best if they just live in the shop. :)

    I make up new words for vehicle engineers. I'm also a professional tool thrower.

    Carolina Squat banned in own state

    Yes, I've been in a few of the older semis and visilibity is lacking, but your loking out and over, not up and over. Even with the old school high hoods on semis, you still have a good field of view straight ahead. I haven't been able to read the final revision of the NC law, but it's more...

    Carolina Squat banned in own state

    Apples to oranges. With the squatted trucks, there is a massive (average 60 ft) blindspot in the main intended direction of travel located directly in front of the vehicle due to extreme chassis angle. Every one you see, the driver is basically hanging from the steering wheel in an attempt to...

    Steering wheel leather peeling, dealer says not warranty?

    Mine did the same thing and was covered before the 3yr/36K was up.

    Trailer Tow Mirrors...?

    I also tow an 8ft travel trailer. My factory mirrors with the small convex did OK at best. I also have observation cameras which make a world of difference. I went with the Boost Auto flip up mirrors with manual flip up, but power fold. Couldn't be happier. I can see for days behind the...

    Lift kits have their place and can serve a legit purpose. Squatting a truck does not. Period. Well, it actually does. Most of the squatter folks tend to blow out axles, ball joints, universal joints etc in 5-6,000 miles because they took the absolute cheapest route to do so generally, which...

    Display mount for camper cameras

    For what it's worth, I keep the magnet mount in the truck just incase something happens with the mount I use currently. Having a backup plan for a backup camera is never a bad idea...and before anyone says it, yes I do have mirrors that work as well. :) Really like the live view from the...

    Display mount for camper cameras

    That one is exactly the same as mine. Just a different name from what I've seen prior to purchasing. I'm in Wilson. About 45 miles east of Raleigh.

    Display mount for camper cameras

    Thanks. Glad I could help. It's deffinately a solid mount. That huge monitor barely moves unless I smack a true NC pothole. The magnet mount would probably hold mine as well as the monitor only weighs a few ounces more than most newer mobile phones. However, we tow down some very narrow and...

    Display mount for camper cameras

    Alrighty....lets dive in. I have linked the 3 items you will need if your display is similiar to mine. I went ahead and bought a full mount with the magnetic end because I'm sure I'll end up using it for something. The last link is for a display mount which supports the "T-bolt" mounting...

    Display mount for camper cameras

    Absolutely! I'm at work until whenever I can save the world today. I'll post up some photos this evening for you. I went with this setup due to the wireless backup system I already had. It's a rather uncommon mount for the display screen. With the setup I chose, it works perfect and looks...

    Display mount for camper cameras

    Yeah, I decided against the full RAM mount and went with the Bullet Point mount. That thing is SOLID! Did have to buy one Ram adapter to do what I needed, but it's done and looks great.
