How do I get the clip un done?

@thehickspanic8646 4 күн бұрын

@@Blue.firstgen.gasser I did not undo the clip. Reason I made video was to show that in models like mine was not necessary. Now, I can’t say for all, since GM is notorious for making changes even in same yr models. Anyway, I undid front pulled back enough to angle down and pull forward carefully and it just slips out of boot leaving boot and clip in place . Will take some wiggling to install back into boot and splines inside beyond boot. Hope that helps. Patience and attention to details before removing anything . Good luck

I’m adding OEM fog lights to my 2005 Silverado that didn’t originally have them. I received the switch today and I’m curious why the fog lights button doesn’t stay down with every other push? Is this the normal way it’s supposed to be?

@@phillipblades6784 on mine you push down and works push again and it’s off. Very subtle difference in level of button depth between on and off but works every time not every other.

One other thing I just came across is this , gonna paste it on here about someone else s experience with a 99. had this same problem with my 99 several years ago and found the answer. Fuse #24 (Int Pk fuse 10A) in LBEC (fuse block at the drivers side of the dash) must be good in order for fog lamps to work. BCM must see power on this circuit to allow fog lamps to work. Why? I don't know. Error in BCM programming? By the way if this fuse is blown (#24 Int. Pk fuse) the ash tray light will not light

Love this build! I’m curious why you didn’t go with copper or the black iron pipe. You said you ask ya and that got me wondering. Also, not sure I saw what burner you linked but where did ya get that part?

@thehickspanic8646 Ай бұрын

@@NateMaris So technically both black iron or copper are good choices. Black iron pipe more susceptible to corrosion. As for copper it’s preferred for propane. I went with stainless steel for burner because it’s stronger and less chance of it getting bent or kinked. I knew I was going to be throwing in lava rock plus all the extra hoses etc.. into box for portability and didn’t want any accidental damage on softer copper pipe. The burner is from Amazon and comes in different sizes depending on how large your ammo box is. Onlyfire Stainless Steel Fireplace H-Burner. Will add a link on description soon for it . All connectors are from local hardware store. So there you go, burner can be made out of any materials above. You can now decide which is best for you.

Cherokee in the NC mountains used it. ❤️. My mother’s surname was Sizemore. The Sizemores came from England into the Virginia colony as some of the first indentured servants in the late 1600s. Some, including my ancestors, migrated to NC. Many settled in the NC Appalachia mountains and lived side by side with the Cherokee and Creek tribes. They became inter married. When the Trail of Tears happened, the Sizemores helped the Cherokee to hide in the mountains by stacking broken sticks in piles to help them know where to go. The Cherokee would break and bend sappling young trees so they would grow in that crooked way as more permanent trail markers. The Indians called the Sizemore’s the “stick people”. Many natives were saved because of my family and they later became the Eastern Band of Cherokee and have lived in the NC mountains since. You can Google this information.

There are several roads that would take you to Hwy 40 including the Forrest road that has the river crossing. If you look up chestnut branch trailhead on map, that location is at the crossroads where you see old store after we cross river and road turns to gravel(1 think around 2:30 in video) and that is the gravel road we stayed on that will take you to cataloochee.
