Cool! I see your video is 3 years old now. What are your impressions 3 years later. Would you have done anything differently?

In its time it i can't imagine it was looked at as cool. It's real cool now. I would go somewhat stock looking with tasteful wheels and a solid drive train. Have fun and nice find.

nice truck first time i seen a long bed factory sqaurebody , i would ls swap or drop a 454 out of rv or obs chevy truck

get a junkyard lm7 and find some ls6 heads and summit stage 2 cam

Cool truck! Especially with it being a long bed stepside. Wood bed floor too right? It's wild that you've had it all these years and haven't cut it up or gone too wild with it. With that said and with just my own experience driving old vehicles as dailys most of my driving life, I'd say don't go too wild with it. Don't get me wrong, an Ls3 with a 4L80 or T56 would be fun. A duramax would be even more fun! But to do it right and reliable is definitely going to be some coin. I'm a strong believer that carburetors are so nice and I prefer them.... I don't know, I daily a no choke carburetored 347/T5 van as a daily and no issues when it's snowing in the mountains or when it's 115 degrees out. With your truck, I'd ditch the quadrajunk and put that holley on after you rebuild it. Also, the dieseling, that's usually timing. Timing combined with the carb that's on it, probably all that's giving you issues. As far as what else you can do to the truck, like I said, I really dig it. Seeing something done about the clear coat would be cool to watch. I wonder how a product like Poppys Patina in glossy would look on your truck? Also, just my opinion, but I'm not liking those seats or center console. I think it would be cool if you could find a bench seat. Bench seats are better anyway, you can have the missus closer. Anyway, cool truck again and I'll be looking forward to see what you do with it

Thankx 4 the help brother👊🏼💯

Thank you for this video You likely save me hours of frustration

Very good video

For a custom to vehicle shade it doesn't fit very well. The cheap one was way better, price and fit. So you decide $8.00 for the cheap one from amazon that works fine or $183.00 from Covercraft that doesn't.

I an 01 Duramax and I have been told replacing the hydroboost was an absolute nightmare. You proved it wrong. I feel I can do this myself. Thank you for this video!

I have a 2016 Ltz awd same color but crappy ass engine all the works but no Go lol

Get ready. I just cut around that slot on my 2011 avalanche..... It was not easy. If they wanted us to cut it away they sure did make the plastic thick even though the slot is implied. You can see where it's supposed to be. At least that allows you to know where to cut but that doesn't make it any easier to cut through thick dash plastic without the blade wandering or slipping and possibly cutting yourself so be careful ias you're going to be very angry while you're doing this because you have this information and there's absolutely no reason did an AC system that has debris going through it should not have a filter I can confirm this after I ripped that thing off along with the parts of the plastic around it. Because it really isn't designed to be done easily. It's a weird angle to dig in with a box cutter or some other razor-like device. I saw another video where a guy just used a spinning disk and just melted the plastic while cutting it. It's not some secret compartment you're not going to get a free filter when you open it. What you're going to get is a good look add all the garbage that has gone up in clogged your AC system. For me that would be around 14 years creating this abstract art attached object and other crap collage it has no business being created in the first place.. this isn't just a design flaw , this is a bad decision made by designers who already had this in place and took it away. Why? If you're able to get in there and take a look. You're going to want to talk to somebody about it like how do I get this out to clean it or how can I clean it? It's already destroyed my blower motor and I think it burned out the resistor. No big deal. Now on top of diagnosing why my AC wasn't working and spending the time and the money to buy all the parts because they were probably ruined because of this ingenious design? What designer of an HVAC system thinks it doesn't need filtration. Help most cars have a pre-filter and one after. This one goes to 11 oh I'm sorry I mean zero. And when you have zero filtration? I'll probably hear your screan from where I'm at when you finally get in there and take a look. There are conflicting videos about this online period with mechanic showing them taking the filter out of a 2011 just like it was a 2001. If you go up to the auto parts store and ask if they have a filter they say yes. And when you finally determined that it's supposed to have a filter why wouldn't it have a filter? You trying to figure out how to access yeah there's nothing there except for an outline where they're supposed to be a door. Then people will tell you you get to it through the glove box and to take that off. And the final answer and I'm not kidding he said you have to cut your vehicle open with a sharp blade all right spinning Dremel disc to get to the empty space where you put your filters in. Probably about 10 to 15 years too late. I know I've written too much to say I'm speechless.

nice

Appreciate the review very much, agree with everyone else, those gaps on a custom shade are unacceptable. CoverCraft should respond or clarify exactly how they expect a custom fit to fit.

This would fail an inspection. That switch is not rated for 30 amps and you've basically put it inline with the heater load which defeats the purpose of using a contactor. The point of the contactor is to handle the load such that something like a normal light switch (or timer) can power the coil. Also it's kinda wasteful and potentially dangerous (heat) to run romex like that through PVC (nitpick). Much cleaner (and easier to pull) to use individual THHN conductors. Nice heater BTW, I have the same one.

Do you know the part number for the panel cover ???

WHY do Chev Trucks use Metric anything???????

I liked the video. Where did you get your brass bleed screw for your fuel primer pump? My plastic one need to be replaced.

Can you put this 2011 hydroboost on a gas truck?

For premium price and being "custom" fit, the fitment should be way better. Ill stick with the cheaper

I noticed that the 2011 unit doesn't have a weep hole at the bottom. Any concerns for you there?

Just swapped out one of these on the old motorhome - check into the 178-1040 - it should be identical to the 1036 and cheaper. Also for you guys that tow- a small trans cooler plumbed into the PS return line and use a TES-295 ATF fluid like Mobil one Delvac or Castrol Transynd will extend the life of your components and save your shit from boiling over in hot ambient temps while trying to back in your trailer/load. Slow speed turning and maneuvering is murder on the system

Used Pine Sol over the wekend for my old Ford carb and worked very well. Only thing I noticed was Pine Sol tends to eat steel parts more than I expected. The throttle lever and fast idle cam are steel and saw a bit of corrosion on them. Ended up using Evaporust in my ultrsonic cleaner and clened right up. I'm a new believer in the Pine Sol!

the expensive one is GAPVILLE

Nice product… shitty fitment. Not worth $80 if it doesn’t fit right.

2005 has one as well

Man I hate gaps, the point of getting custom fit is for no gap. The small gap will let all the hot and sun in

going to the amazon link the description says it a 2018? weep hole was moved to the middle verse at the end .

i got 2 remans from auto zone this week and both are leaking!!! so, I will get what you got. nice video,

is it the same part number if i want to do it on a 2006 Tahoe 5.3 ?

i opened the carborator from top screws and put in carb cleaner directly... i was wrong ??

Good video amigo, i ordered 1 & since ive been a 12 volt tech for 35+ years i connected it to my DEH3000 with a dedicated 12 volt switch to the ignition wire & its own shared ground wire to the pioneer head unit, the radio's IP-Bus recognized the input & i hear the hiss white noise as i turn up the volume & the little blue light turned on & it paired to my phone but im getting no sound, i trouble shot it for half an hour & concluded that it never worked from the factory hence why i found this YT video😂

Nice how to video 👍👍. About how long did this take you to do? I just checked your link for that booster, it's now $350. We all know who's to blame for these higher prices.

Too much talk like a child.. ! Simply put that on and that's be it...!

I'd have a good laugh seeing you hiding in your truck behind the small one with the gaps in sun of Arizona, hard boild egg within minutes 😂 I bought one like this cheap one for my campervan for £5 with two suction cups used it in Spain and Portugal for two years still go strong. The cheap one aluminium bubble wrap winner all day long! At least It covers whole wind screen s that it's purpose a bit too much no problem. Problem begins where shield ends up and gap starts 😂 Cheap one winner💯👍🏻

For the price difference the cover craft should fit better. I would rather have one a little big than too small.

$80 for gaps. Nope

Looks heavy and thick. Plus gaps are a no no in southern states where summer will roast you

You posted links to 2 different hydro boosts. What is the difference between them and which one did you use in this video? Thanks

Love the edits bro 😂

Does it have a cd player Mines claim it has one and hell Im still looking for it

If I were to install 7500watts of baseboard heaters with 40amp breaker but only have a 5280watt, 22 amp thermostat. Can I use a 40a contactor between the 7500 watt baseboard and 5280watt thermostat to handle the big load?

difference could be because you don't have a leak and losing braking pressure. nothing to do with unit or fluid if it is that subtle.

You need to have very clean metal, and etch with a highly acidic flux of zinc chloride, then use a 95% tin 5% solder to stick to the steel, then use lead to fill the hole .. clean with baking soda and water to neutralize the hydrochloric acid formed from heating the flux...

I'd rather have the shade that covers ALL the areas where the hot sun can get inside the car. Poor job @CoverCraft

Wait I need to check it

Nice work! I'm definitely doing this in my 2001 LB7 "Pig the Alaskan Overland Rig" Thank you.

What do you do during a call, since there isn't a microphone?

I just inherited an old truck with a discontinued camper. Been a pain sourcing glass and hardware. Seems im stuck jerryrigging something for the rear window

Good job!!
