Video

Nice and clean set up.

How is your pool equipment doing

Do they sell the lower chrome trim?

This video has been sooooo helpful, thank you!!!

I wish you had shown exactly how you disassembled the dash. That's my only concern as I upgrade my speakers. Still a great video! Thanks man!!

Looks good ! How's the seam in the center ? I bought the Window trim overlay and great fit and looks Awesome .

I had the same issue no plywood on house but we had removed a window right where I’m hanging Tv so they used plywood to cover the old window cut out . Do you think I need to hit a stud for tv mount or the plywood will support it ? It’s a 65” tv .

Get a mic

How did it hold??

good👌

Nice Have you pressure washed the truck ? I’m scared to go thru the car wash since the pressure is so strong

ok, I just did this. Couple things to help everyone out.. if you compress the springs just enough until loose to get out the OEM shocks you will not be able to get the top shock rod to poke through the top shock mount. You need to compress that spring until it gives you clearance to get the shock rod through the top mount and you can get the nut on. Approx 3 inches of exposed threaded rod on coil compression tools. Bilstein is painfully slow in helping you if you call/text them. If you don't have an impact gun I wouldn't even start it unless you like to fight with everything. Once the coil is compressed and you have to remove the top shock nut in the mount, everything will just spin unless you have the power of an impact socket to spin the nut off. If you don't, you need to use a wrench to hold the top of the rod and then find something to back the nut off. The nut is recessed so nearly impossible to get ahold of it. I recommend using a spray lubricant before even trying. My truck is brand new and the nut was still a pain. To be honest most nuts are a pain without an impact gun. Sway bars, tie rod end both need a way of holding the bolt when tightening the nut. If you don't have a pass through socket set to do both it can be tricky. I certainly appreciate the video, would never attempt without it. This kind person even helped me when I reached out on a holiday weekend. Thanks man!! I just want you to know this upgrade isn't for everyone and a second set of hands is appreciated. Also if you don't have deep sockets that fit all these nuts buy them. Don't wait, just buy them. You need them. Good luck!

Did you have to compress the spring even farther to get the nut on top of the new shock? Because you moved the bottom coil mount up approx 2 inches that means the top of the shock doesn't stick through the top bucket.

Do I need to disconnect the battery? Chance of ruining electrical system is fairly low correct?

🔥🔥🔥Nice. We strapped on the tv using the ZeboZAP to the gazebo post. 🥳

Dude..thanks for the instructions and for bringing the heat with that jam in the background 👌 😅 Starts ripping around 10min in

@The Average Joe’ Garage- How’s it holding up?

Wow thanks for this video. I was going to put the stock speakers back in because i installed the same infinity speakers and it sounded crazy and i didnt want to drive the truck. Thanks again

Looks great.

The front valence that you wrapped under the bumper, how did you remove that to wrap it? I can’t find instructions anywhere online for that. I am looking to wrap or replace it…but want to make sure I can remove ha. Not as handy as you!

I've been trying to cure the dim projector low beams of my 2017 Limited. I switched to LED bulbs, but it was only marginally better. Come to find out the likely issue is that the reflective coating in the project goes dull over time, thereby vastly reducing the output. The reflective coating inside the projector is very thin (only a few microns) and degrades over time from the heat of the halogen bulbs. No matter what LED bulbs I install, I'm going have that issue unless I replace the actual projector units themselves. I decided to replace the headlight housings with the downgraded reflector-style headlights that were also offered on the Expedition. They are a bit less expensive than buying new projector headlight housings, and hopefully won't suffer the same degradation over time.

Just plasti dip that bad boy & stop wasting ur money mate. Took me an hour & my ‘21 Suburban looks gorgeous.

Great video! This will be my next upgrade on my 21 Rebel in Billet Silver. I have been wanting to do it after watching WF41 do his, but just haven't got around to doing it. I upgraded to a Borla S Type and it's perfect. The ATAK was a bit much for me. Like you, I live in PA and deal with the salt and brine in the winter. I took the plunge and had mine fully rustproofed with New Hampshire Oil Undercoating (NHOU) and happy I did. Hopefully the top nut on the strut isn't corroded like yours were. Anyway, thanks again and for the details in the description box!

Great video. Just an fyi... My insignia TV was mounted outside with a leather case and lasted for 5+ years until it got soaked while I was away. Good luck. 🤘

You mentioned you would do the trim illusion pieces on the side windows instead of vinyl, do you think those pieces on the side would hold up better than vinyl? Thinking of having mine done vinyl at a shop as I dont trust myself ha but the trim illusions do look nice, just curious your thoughts for the side window ones.

Were these 2 ohm replacements?

My running light is out on my 2021 suburban. Can I buy a bulb for it? Or do I have to buy a whole new unit? It’s the rear passenger.

30 sec installation. 11 min video 📹 😆

what kind of side steps do you have?

How to you tie in the grill lights to the side marker lights ???

Any errors on reverse bulbs you eventually put in? Errors galore on my ‘23 Premier

Nice! I’m prepping to do the same to my ‘23 premier. Any videos of removing the side window chrome strips? Also, next on your list should be the fender marker light.

I have the same kit on my 2018 SL.. Looks really good but ruined the ride quality. Horrible feeling when driving over speed bumps and road joints on the freeway.

Well that 16,000 is gonna get used up quick with the prices of trucks today!

I'm in the process of upgrading to Bilstein 6112 and RC UCA to level my Rebel. When looking at the 6112 specs, it was mentioned that to get a 2" lift, it needs to be at the 8th circlip. The 5th circlip will only raise it by 0.8". Does the 5100 have the same lift height specs? I don't want a reverse rake.

Happy to hear that the family is safe. Hope you chose to purchase the Pro4X for your next project. I've got a '21 baja storm Pro4X and love it. I've also got Progressive insurance.. thanks for the comments on them - I'll be changing them asap. Peace!

what about the headlights that are terribly dim?

Can you give me a make and model for DTRL please.

Such a good video. How have the powerbass 69’s been for you? Did you hear more bass out of them compared to stock? They seem like a perfect replacement based on the low pass from the amp but the stock does a pretty decent job. I have skar tx35s in my dash. Just put the Kicker 46CSC6934 6x9s in my rear doors. I lost some bass and they sounded too bright at first but I realized I could now crank the bass eq without losing clarity so it ended up being a net gain in low end capability. I have a pair of KICKER 46CSC354 on the way to throw in the dash and see which one I prefer in there for good, the other pair will end up in the back rear upholstery. Need more base but I am not throwing an amp or subs in this truck no sir 😂

You used the original front springs, correct? Basically got a full 3" total?

The connecters you go were for the 6x9 door speakers 🔊 Correct connectors are the 72-7902, Still a badass video tho man 😎

Thanks for making this video. I was curious how the bottom panel popped off.

I actually just bought this today after watching your video. How is holding up? I know it’s only been a few days. Did you get anything else from them? Seems like they have a lot of chrome deletes.

Do you have to upgrade the UCAs with the bilstein 5100s?

I lowered the back 2in on mine.

Still loving the speakers? Did you upgrade the center speaker? I have a 2018 Rebel with the Alpine system.

could you let us know which are the correct bulbs for this install ?

great video. at 8.30 you describe the RC 3 - 3.5 UCA and also mention the Rebel comes with a 1in lift. Well that 1in goes away when you remove the OEM strut (which adds the 1in lift) and replace with the Bilstien 5100 (2in lift). So the net increase is only 2in not 3in.

What's the distance between the door and the window?

I was wondering if you’ve had any issues with the RC upper control arms. I know RC says they’re for minimum 3” of lift and technically your set up is a little lower. I’m trying to find the right pair of upper control arms for my rebel that I’ll be putting the Bilsteins on.
