What about storage on this vehicle for additional fluids? Are we going to see the extra oil filter like on the Cmax? Amsoil products? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Looks good. Hey Don, don't forget to add gear oil. " " , don't forget to add a couple quarts ATF for the convertor. " " , " " " " " " " engine oil.Dexcool & brake fluid would be a bonus!Just trying to help buddy.
I agree replace the stock cooler as its grossly undersized and clean up the POs hack job.Ive done a Tru Cool M7B on my 2500 Yukon XL and Ive done the Tru Cool 40K on a 6.0 2500.Both work equally well. M7B in the dead of summer will run 175 degrees and the 40k will run 150. Unless your towing an RV my vote is the M7B.https://www.performancetrucks.net/forums/gm-drivetrain-suspension-22/new-tranny-cooler-install-b-m-70266-a-467897/or https://www.performancetrucks.net/forums/gm-drivetrain-suspension-22/tru-cool-40k-gvw-transmission-cooler-install-thread-470284/
I think Norm point out the possible splashing of the air filter from below. I agreeToday I did something about that

I don't want to add you to my list of hundreds of customers that call back to re-order parts!
Then to make Ken and Tate happy, I filled the front differential with fresh gear oilI painted the fill plug red/orange to make it easier for technicians to find it in the future when they are called on to change the fluids

Mine is turned down to about 3 1/2" and last time I raced someone, I thought that driveline was going to end up wrapped around the steering wheel...it was violent. But normal driving it's fine at all speeds in 4wd. I haven't launched in 4wd since then.
*Depends..=Don's old. Made sense in my mind at the time.Just trying to get fired again.
Are you upgrading the front DS at all? For the Cognito lift I want they say a new one is needed with a CV. Thinking I will just have a CV added to the stock, hopefully about 1/2 the price.What size is you front swaybar?On the tranny, go for it. Installed a few with no issues. Warning is CYA like telling you what end the gun shoots from,,,,,,,,,,

Don, I’m sure you of all people can handle a trans-go kit! I’ve done one in my DMAX and one in the wife’s Acadia. You’ll do fine.You mentioned LEDs for external, you’ll likely need a new flasher module to run the signals without hyper flash, or wire in resistors on each bulb.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
