What have you done to your Silverado ZR2 this week? 🛠️

Actually look pretty nice. Maybe I’ll rethink the black lug nuts if I can find them cheaper than $200.

$35

Not too shabby. May have to get those center caps also and ditch the bowties.

Bought these, they fit fine. I bought a set for $100 on ebay that had a different style clip, basic junk. Tire shop broke clips off, then i tried and broke some off.

Changed the oil yesterday(did the wife's Jeep also), added black lug nuts, swapped to American flag center caps and today I swapped to the Airaid Jr intake tube to clean up the engine bay. (back is damn killing me lol)

While changing the tube, looked at the TB to ensure it was clean. The hose coming off the PCV is clean also. However, the hose that connects to the intake tube had some oil in it. Is this normal for this truck? There was no oil on the TB but the baffles in the OEM tube could have stopped that from happening. Just curious as I have never seen oil in that tube on other vehicles.

On a side note, the Airaid came with an oiled filter I did not use and dont plan to. If anyone wants to give a few bucks for it in NW FL, let me know. I figure the stock filter is fine and I dont have to worry about oil getting on the MAF.

Some of us installed the J&L oil separator for this reason.

Doesnt the oil separator connect to the opposite side?

Looks great! Looking to get rid of my stock Goodyears. May look into these. Tried to have the dealership change em out but no luck. lol. I know how loud they will get as I had them on my 2020 TrailBoss prior to this truck.

Connects on the driver side which returns back to the intake.

right. I’m talking about the passenger side.

Matte black wrap on the hood feature and dark smoke tint on the tail lights right after LED bulb swap for the license plate and reverse lights.

2500HD question...What type of fuses do I have? I look at these things and they all look the same...I need to use a fuse tap and need to know what type to order. Thank you in advance for this dummy question.

 

[C2s ZR2]

Work continues on the bandit ZR2!!!


Got the hood bulge wrapped in a matte/satin black with gold accent and black 6.2L badges!!

For my DIY brothers or those willing to take a try at vinyl it was relatively easy, as the bulge is mostly a big flat square.
I used matte black vivid vinyl from Amazon. IMO they have good stuff I’ve used it in the past to wrap motorcycles, and other toys….

Love the gold accents on the hood!

I'd have to look, but from the OM, there's a couple sizes. I'd assume micros and minis for the most part. Micros are tiny. Mini's are small but have semi-pointed blades.

The standard (ATO/ATCs) you see in trailers and generic fuse blocks are fairly big, they're easy to tell apart from the minis not only by size, but the blades are almost square.

There are cartridge fuses, where the body is like a cube, but I don't expect you'd be tapping those. Most OEs use cartridge fuses instead of higher amperage Maxi's.

Just in case you haven’t had an MXT before, make sure you change the setting to use the mic as the speaker instead of the head. (Or set it for both)

Good call- was aware of this already- one of the reasons I chose this setup. But I appreciate the heads up regardless.

Where are you looking to tap? There's three fuse panels?
