Not sure how to explain this without it sounding confusing. I bought an oem pod light switch, I am not sure on if I can buy an oem harness similar to adding fog lights to a Silverado that didn’t have that option. I was thinking of splicing the wire to the traction control switch for the light that turns on at night I can’t remember what it’s called. I know pod light kits usually come with their own switch but I plan on replacing it with this oem switch and splicing the wire so that it turns on as well at night.

I don’t shop at Lowe’s much, I don’t work in trades so Bauer does my ever so often tasks very well. I bought a similar one to this one at harbor freight but lost it, and was wondering if these versions of Kobalt and husky lights go on sale as well. I have already stockpiled every tool I could need and harbor freight is farther and more of a hassle than just going to pick it up at my local Lowe’s.

I own a 2006 Silverado and I got a new front end and I color matched 2 trim pieces that go directly in between the headlights at the front. I know 1k takes longer than 2k but should I wait more for it to not get chipped while driving on the road? I am going to spray the clear coat today and I was thinking maybe I’d be able to put it on by Monday? And also if anyone has any advice for how to spray the clear coat please do, I’ve painted some plastic parts but they don’t need to be perfect but this I don’t want it to get orange peel or running streaks from bad application

I posted about a month asking about changing lifters and cam because I thought it had lifter tick. Today when I was driving it started to tick again, the tick somewhat increases during acceleration. And when I turned it back on and started driving 5 minutes after parking it the tick was Gone. This was all in the span of about 30 minutes of driving. I was going to record it after getting home but since it was gone there’s no tick to record. Am no expert but I don’t think lifter tick comes and gos. I think it may be the infamous broken exhaust manifold bolts. Is it hard to check if it’s a broken bolt? Would I try to look if it wiggles or I think someone had. Mentioned using a sound finder something like that.

This is the inside of my differential. It is a g80. I can say for certain differentials in yt videos do not look like this. Not sure if i should flush it. I am betting I shouldn’t right? Honestly have no idea when was the last time it was changed. I have vavoline 75-90 full synthetic to fill this up. My guess was the gasket sealant failed because it looks moist around those areas.

As can see on the video, the differential cover bolts are extremely tight. It’s impossible to turn with one hand from how tight it is. Not sure if I should use my impact to break it loose. My first choice is breaking it by hand. Could there be a reason as to why it’s so tight? It has no rust, in Arizona. Bunch of oil spilled out of the fill plug on a level driveway.

Okay so now I can post better photos of my 2006 avalanche with my new hd front end.
Very grateful for all the stuff I found and bought. Found hood, rear cubby, platinum air vents and cup holders. Replace rear passenger motor since window would fall down. Replace my rear bumper with an hd one as well. Still have a lot of stuff to do but it just looks exactly like I envisioned it. I think far into the future I’ll buy 16 inch kmcs and 33 a/ts. These snowflakes are nice since they look like f150 Shelby rims but I liked meatier tires more.

After so long it’s finally done. Finally has its front bumper back on. And finally has its HD front end. Such a milestone for myself and re ignited my love for gmt800s after sitting so long all broken down

I recently posted because I have bad camber on my wheels after an alignment. While I was installing my bumper I decided to take the wheel off and check the pins and this doesn’t looks right to me. Compared next to the level, it’s bad. Should I retake it for a correct alignment? This was my last alignment before my 1 year expired. Am supposed to pay again the next time but this looks really bad to which I think I shouldn’t have to pay for it again considering the camber

Okay I need some advice now, I am trying to put the valance on my avalanche and I used some clips that someone recommended from a yt video but it doesn’t work, and also tried the assortment clips from harbor freight and nothing works, it just sags. Can I buy screws and nuts to mount it to the bumper? I can probably get the nuts and screw for cheap at tractor supply. Has anyone used screws instead of clips?
