Personally I think the rain guards look great on these trucks

Not a chevy guy, but this is a real nice truck and if it were me id keep it stock as a rock. This is when Chevys were good in my opinion, they dont make anything i like today unfortunately so to see nice older pickups like this puts a smile on my face

Who else thought of “let me get 5 on the diesel” just found your channel beautiful Chevy! Subscribed to see her progress.

“I have officially had this truck for 2 days and it doesn’t even feel real” - the best feeling in the world. Hope you are still enjoying the Chevy!

Being from Michigan, I'm blown away every single time you find a diamond gmt800. I've had my 2005 Silverado (226k miles) for nearly 20 years now. The rocker panels, fenders, and cab corners have that bluetooth connectivity 😅

Definitely keep the rain guards, they look great on any truck

Keep the rain guards, they look good and they’re practical. And if you ever have your window pop off track, you can force it up to almost closed and not have to worry about it leaking. Speaking from experience here, definitely was a life saver

I bought my LBZ new in late 2006 and have been able to change fuel filter from the top every time. A little tip for you, after replacing fuel filter start your truck, when it stalls just crack the purge screw then pump until fuel comes out, close screw and pump the primer until it won't depress any more. Start the truck and you are good to go. I actually put a valve on mine to make it less messy. Then I added a lift pump and can forgo the bleeding process altogether. If your truck is 4wd you'll want to add the BRNY plate to your transfer case pump so you don't end up with the pump rub pin hole. I also added the filtration systems bypass oil filter as well to filter the oil better. There's a lot you can do to these but I would start with the mods that extend the life of the truck. Also, they came with a shallow transmission pan, I would replace it with the standard,or what most call the deep pan from allison.

wow that truck was finished 5 days after i was born. for a 16 almost 17 year old truck its in really really good shape! good on the previous owner for taking such care of it.

Must do in every diesel is never let the fuel level get that low! Good luck with that duraslack!!

Extremely excited about this truck and the path you take! Keep up the great videos

Btw, you can cut a little square space out in your fender for servicing the fuel filter, and cut two little small holes for some hard to see zip ties, once you’re done with it then put two new zip ties back in. Also you don’t have to take the plastic screw all the way out. Just open it one turn and pump until you see fuel

Aren't there drain tubes for the sunroof that go down the A and B pillars? It's pretty common for those to get clogged and cause water to puddle up inside the roof and leak onto the headliner. Might want to look that up and try cleaning them out.

Banks is an awesome intake. I’d suggest ordering the cover for the filter. I ordered the dry filter with the filter cover and the scoop and the scoop makes a major difference in intake temps. My intake temps are roughly 2 degrees above ambient when rolling. It woke the truck up, I also have the banks six gun tuner.

My 02 2500 HD 6.0 Has 425,000 miles. I do my own work and put brakes on all 4 . Calipers pads rotors hydro boost power steering pump rebuild entire front end new tires and i added coil overload springs on the rear. Without getting into the engine it gets regular oil changes and runs like new I put a visor and roof racks modified the tailgate to receive a 1/5 wheel or goose neck. For cun i put an altimeter on the dash and a rain guage on the front bumper . My brush guard has a hndyman jack a comealong log chain double bit ax and a buck saw. magnet to hold a couple Tools its paited camouflage with bedliner paint.

Just bought a 2012 Silverado 2500hd gas and am also still in the ,”I can’t believe it’s my truck!” stage! Just love everything about the truck!

Just my 2 cents but the truck is damn near perfect in my eyes, I know it’s not much be but it’s definitely gorgeous as is keep up the sick content man

I couldn’t agree more with ya chase about the sunroof design how it opens, I’ve always loved that look. I’ve even thought about putting a aftermarket in my 2020 trailboss 6.2 but it would cost too much to re design the current one lol. Awesome truck man!

just got a 1994 Dodge Ram 1500 5.9L blacked out rhino lined with some 22' black rims , red calipers, also just ordered a cherry bomb extreme and some magna flow high flow cats can't wait to install it so hyped to hear it roar

Name it CLIFFORD!!

I am super happy for this series! I just found you, I got about 2 or so weeks until I get my Colorado, im 16 and im paying it off for my grandma, I was talking to my grandpa about it before he passed, its a super nice truck and he was planning on selling it for cheap anyways. Its an 06, but I have been lost on what i should be doing, its got 100k miles so ill have it for a while and I plan on putting my heart into it.

Diggin the video champ thanks. Im thinking of finding me a older used F250 and just fixing it up and eventually replacing the engine.

I have the Weathertech rain guards on everything I own. Lets the heat out but stops the rain from coming in. It is one of the few mods I do on a vehicle.

The stock wheels for this truck re the best-looking wheels to ever come off the line. Especially if they're clean. Keep or replace the rain guards.

Finally a good reason to watch this channel, you got a diesel baby, I was starting to think you played for the other team cause all your other trucks are gas suckers, can’t wait for all the content on this truck

Thank you for this!! We are looking at getting our FIRST Diesel and this was super helpful!! Appreciate you!

Buddy thats a nice Truck!

1st must upgrade for you is new tires bro 😆. Solid unit though, love my cat eyes!

Love the rain guards as well, with blacked out windows they look amazing keep em

I have an 05 duramax (same specs without a sun roof) and personally I love my rain guards… I don’t care for the look too much, but I use the function all the time, it keeps bugs from being sucked in the window while I’m driving and it’s good at keeping rain out even with the window all the way down.

I feel this , I just got my new truck, 2010 silverado 6.2 ls, so surreal

Thanks for the heads up on the Name! I have 06 gaser and a 07 Duramax and I never knew that

beautiful truck, i’ve been looking around for a truck myself and I’m decently considering the cateye’s now, thank you!

I absolutely love the rain guards, I’m a big fan of the truck! I always do vinyl between the windows especially with the tint makes them look aggressive

NICE work young man! I like these old chevys and gms

I soak my air filters in hot water and dish soap. Then rinse it . Seems to clean it the best . To speed up the drying process I put a hair dryer in the filter and leave it for 10-15 minutes. I also work for Cummins and it’s best you install the fuel filter dry so you aren’t filling your new filter with contaminated diesel.

"It doesnt feel like its mine"- Thats exactly what I said when I got mine lol

I’m getting more into trucks so watching this video I really enjoyed it can’t wait to keep watching more man keep it up 🔥

All paint matched, Roll pan, Bed cover , an 5 Star Denali stocks wit graps 😮‍💨👌🏻

I’m very excited to what you’ve got in store for this. Great content keep it up

I’m so envious dude. I have a victory red LBZ too and my hood paint is coming up but yours look so good. I live down a dirt road so it’s hard to keep clean but man that thing looks and sounds so good.

Fly them window vent visor's. That and the bug shield be the first things to go on my truck purchases.

Keep the rain guards. They look so good on these trucks. Mine looked naked without them.

Change All the fluids over to Amsoil, and run a bottle of the amsoil Ctane and injection pump lubricant in every tank of fuel and you will never have injector problems.

When you put the monster in the cupholder, all I could smell was wintergreen and cigarettes from high school oooo the good times.

I think this is the first of these trucks ive like looks good sits right paint is shiny and sounds nice 🎉Congrats

Every single vehicle I buy, I put rain guards on. So my vote and suggestions would be new rain guards, AirDog lift pump and stock fuel filter delete, center caps for wheels that fit that truck just fine and use that money saved for the highly important lift pump. The black headliner would be cool. Boost Auto Parts sequential turn signal tow mirrors, black and chrome door handles for exterior, 3 inch down pipe, pcv reroute, turbo resonator delete, 8 new AC DELCO 9G glow plugs, Edge CTS3 Insight to monitor everything. These are some of the things that are "must haves" and some things you might like and/or benefit from. I love my '06 LBZ Sierra 2500hd. I have some of these things I've done to mine and a mild tuner and Transgo shift kit Jr. I spent 2021 and 2022 refurbishing my frame and body. I do all of my own work on my truck, welding, bodywork, painting, etc. A lot of hard work but no $1,000 + monthly payments, just credit card bills.😂 175,000 miles and runs like a top. I use Opti-lube XPD in every fill-up. Would like to get a PPE oil pan on her someday and an RDS 64 mm 9 blade turbo. Red is not my color, but she is beautiful. Congratulations! Mine is black.

I would say that that filter is toast.

Love this truck every time I see it

Honestly best year for trucks if you ask me I like the older 2000s even 90s trucks 96 ford is my dream truck my dad would let me drive his work ford around the ranch as a kid and ever since then I wanted my own

Usually sunroofs leak because the drains that run through the pillars are clogged. Love the truck!

I actually work for Hardy Ford, which is the same owner that owns Hardy Chevrolet where the truck was originally bought from and I haven’t seen a Hardy decal like that in years

Great truck. We've had 4 2005-2006 cat eyes. Get the transfer case checked. There's a part inside of it that vibrates a hole in the case causing a small leak. We had to replace to cases at the same time.

I super appreciate your videos! You’re a good guy! Keep up the good work!

I like the window shields, have them on my LML your truck looks great.

To stop your sunroof from leaking use vegetable oil put some on there let it sit wipe it off don't leave it on there it'll mess up the rubber all together but if you just rub it on let it sit for a few minutes and take it off it'll help seal them windows if everything else is okay

That is one beautiful truck

The aluminum stock wheels on those years look so good I just wish they were bigger than 16’s. I put the newer style 5 spoke ltz 2500 wheels on my truck but every time I see a gmt800 with some clean polished aluminum stocks I question myself

You should do a Fast Fuel system, best first mod you can do with a diesel

Chevy 5 star wheels are a must!

Beautiful truck man. It reminds me of a silverado my grandpa used to have but white.

I was into your 2018 as that's what I own (red) but this truck is the best so far. Even as it sits right now it is just sweet !

If youre good to it, it should be good to you! Ive had my lbz for 4 years, its at 240k and still loving life!

You should put chompers old radio in it

I love my 2007 Classic LBZ. Bought new in November 2006 and I have 245,000 miles now. It’s a keeper. Did I mention I love my LBZ?

tow mirrors on the 2500’s look great u should get some like 2017 silverado tow mirrors

Man, that is a beautiful truck!! it's almost my dream truck as well, except I want a long box and a 3500.

Those Banks filters are actually manufactured by K&N (I worked there for 5 years). Perfect product for the job 👍🏽

It’s nice to see someone else using Kobalt!! It’s the little things that get me excited 🤷‍♂️

Love this series on the truck awesome!

I'm a big fan of the rain guards. Prefer the ones that stick on the outside of the door rather than in channel just my opinion. Looks great either way.

Absolutely love this truck, got a 04 1500 extended cab and absolutely love it.

The amber headlights would look nice too

Car dealerships in my area say they treat customers like family so I assumed they took care of all that before selling their used vehicles.

thats a bad ass truck! id love to own one just like that

Can you please make sure to make a video when you replace the sunroof gasket. My trucks sunroof is leaking bad and I need to replace the seal but can't find any videos on YT. Love your content and the new truck. Can't wait for more videos on her.

Love those rims. don’t know why, I just do. looks great

Get you one of PPE's duramax bleeder screws. They're metal. And you should definitely keep its name Heather

seeing it with a stock radio unmolested is a nice surprise

I am constantly amazed at the videos people put on here thinking that filming themselves doing every day dumb shit is what we want to see.

OMG he's got his mirrors set in tow mode! He's so bada$$! 😮

I like the rain guards on trucks but it would look good either way

I hope you are keeping her name Heather. It will suit her Spidey attitude. She a beauty dude

Level your tow mirrors. Then do an egr blocker plate. That will bring a noticeable difference to acceleration

for those who have a sun roof, if you dint know they have drain plugs inside the roof lining if you dont drain it it may leak inside of you vehicle. also 10/10 but nxt time whacth we your spaying the water or plug the tail light, cause u did end up putting a lot of water in it

I just bought an 04 lb7 with 230,000 miles on it new injectors new batteries and it runs like a new truck I think it would pull hell through a knothole

This video is great love the quality and it is just enjoyable to watch with good information!

This dude has a dirt phobia

Add some running boards ,you and the other can get into truck easier, and it will save wear and tear on the seats.

i havnt been watching u much recently but i’ve been waiting until i got my own, getting a lbz for 3k in a weeek

You gotta name it Clifford!

Ive always liked the stock look on most trucks, there are nice aftermarket parts but sometimes they just arent the look.

Every time I get a new truck I clean it extensively inside, new oil and filter, fuel filter, drain and fill the diff, new trans fluid and filter, clean or replace air filter, check the belt, drain and fill the coolant. The tail lights I would replace and I always put in LED license plate lights and reverse bulbs too.

Excited to see the set up you got coming👀

Absolutely a beautiful truck! Have you ever thought about using mothers black trim restorer?

My crew cab 4.8L was also assembled by heather lmfao

I check today a 2004 Duramax with lly engine on it with 220 k miles for 17k. Comes with a high topper that's is immaculate, 4 brand new Goodrich tires, is got the iron cross bumpers red in color found it in a Honda dealership but if they can sell it going to actioned. Send me some comments pleased ! city boy here no clue what Getting my self into. Is just the average truck now regardless the brand is 50k or more this is 17 k. Sounds great very clean engine brand new alternator and water hose brand new both batteries.

Hey dude. You remind me in some nostalgic way of a friend of brother that i never had. You have a great vibe. Good man.

Them Chevy 2010 Colorados look very similar to those like a mini Silverado 😅

When I bought my 2010 in September, I’ll literally changed the oil check everything else out change the fuel filter transmission filter and I also change the air filter right now I change upper and lower ball joints and I think I might have to change the U joints
