Installed a new head unit, ATOTO A6 Android system with a PAC RP5-GM11 adapter. Everything works great except steering wheel controls... Still need to figure this one out, but I think some previous threads along with other gm forum threads I stumbled upon should help.
Next on the list is shocks on all fours with the RTD delete. I need to look into the rear autolevel system on why the air bags on the shocks are blown, but I am not getting any codes or messages. Fuses that I know of are good.

I swapped in Z71 springs and 2" spacers, kept the factory bar, and I don't think the driver's and passenger sides are different by even 1/4". Like you, I swapped out the sway bar links, I used ones for a 3" lifted Jeep Wrangler.
Glad to see you zip-tied the E-brake cable, as opposed to letting it dangle free. Zip ties kept breaking with mine, I finally used some 2" wide Gorilla duct tape, and wrapped about 8 layers over the cable and bar. Has been holding up for over a year:happy107:.

What do the angles of your CV axles look like? Just installed ebay "Ford" keys on my 06 XL Denali with Bilstein 5100 shocks, and the front is sitting at 40"!!! Haven't done the back suspension yet, but I'm worried about my CV axles. Don't have much room to crank the keys down. Saw in another post that you're sitting at about 40" so figured I'd ask what yours look like.

Need to have the tire size corrected and the TC lock up at partial throttle re-mapped. Figured might as well get the autocal now since they offer lifetime retunes. Not really looking for a lot more power........yet.

I love my autocal. Bb has retuned my Denali about 10 times lol. I keep making it faster.

Welp I am out of work sick today so I ordered some more stuff and fixed my brake lights. Got pulled over on the way to the doctor this morning, officer said nice truck bud! But none of your brake lights work. Lol, I told him we just got it back on the road this week and I’d fix them today and he let me go no ticket. So my sick ass got the voltmeter out and traced it down to a loose lead on the brake light switch, the white wire had come loose. Pulled the lead and tighten the end up a bit and put it back in place, works like new.

Then I’ve been needing to replace my mirror switch for the last year So i ordered that. I could only move the mirrors down, every other direction had quit working lol.

And I can’t find 4” lift springs for the rear so I went ahead and ordered these 5” lift springs, gonna take out the 7” spring spacer and stock spring and put these in should get more articulation and will lower the back 2”.

You have a 7" spacer? The new springs should be much better.
