Its pre-wired to a relay in the drivers b-pillar that has a set of heavy leads taped to the roof structure for installation of a beacon or spotlight on a snow plow truck. I pulled the wires down to the bottom of the b-pillar and plan to use them for something in the future.

Not yet, probably wait until later this spring once I get back from a work trip so I can use some OT cash to pick up a new set of 285s. ALso will be after they are done spreading salt on the roads for snow.

Cool trailer!! Welcome!

I'd start by figuring out a way to get a manual gauge on the engine and see what actual oil pressure is. Could be a faulty sensor or could actually be a failing oil pump loose bearing clearance etc... my two pennies. -j-rod

No, not adding extra switches at this time. This is a factory switch that came for trucks with the snow plow prep package or any of the other upfitter options. Its a pushbutton on the dash to the right of the HVAC controls that is pre-wired with a relay and can support a 30 amp load for a...

Thanks! I actually googled GMT800 forums to find this place. I was already on GMT400 forums and figured it was a logical search with as many of these trucks as are on the road.

Done both lower seat covers on my 06, not too big of a deal ,helps to have a good solid chair to sit the cushion on while you are wrestling the cover. the lower cushion is removed with two nuts at the front bottom of the cushion and unplugging the wiring from underneath. lots of good vids on...

Greetings all, joined up last spring after i picked up my 06 at an auction. been slowly fixing it up as funds and time allow. have gotten everything squared away except headliner and a slight dead spot in the steering. Already gone through the whole front end as well as steering box...
