    Agreed! But the more ideas, the better. Makes the job much easier with all the options on the table.

    Looks really good. What did you use for wire? Thinking that since those are no load switches that you could probably get away with cat6 which is 4 pair of 24ga. I think cat5 is 28ga.

    no, I’ve done the tow/haul just to see what it will do. I haven’t gotten the PC delivered yet. Install should be in a couple of days. Should have clarified!

    How’s the clearance from the tire to the UCA with the factory BBS rims and those tires? I’m thinking about upgraded UCA’s but there’s not much room to spare with the factory BBS offset.

    Not on my 2021. There is no way I can get that sort of throttle response by mashing the gas. Same for my buddies 2015.

    That’s exactly what it is doing. It’s just opening the throttle sooner. All it’s doing is say at 25% throttle input, it’s opening the throttle body 35%.

    So, howz the feel of the new hardware??

    I was a bit skeptical about the circuit board replacement and such leaving it not feeling like an OE control, so I thought I'd wait on your 'professional' opinion.... ;)

    YMMV. I run tow/haul in S mode 24/7. It goes well enough and I feel it's the way the truck should be stock. It goes better if I press the gas farther. PC will burn more gas just like pressing the gas farther will. IMO it's dumb to pay that much money for something that presses the gas more with less pedal effort. It provides no more power than the engine has stock. Again, YMMV.

    Looks good! I'm thinking about doing the same type of methods. Any chance you could get a picture from the front/back to show tire poke please? That's the one thing I've been having trouble finding pictures of!

    Can't tell the difference from OEM to new. Seriously, the only things swapped are the outer button and the PCB - the little rubber contact pad (which provides the "feel" of the buttons when pressed) is all factory. In theory, you could leave the outer button as factory, but the icons would be wrong...

    Installed the motor for my rear window power conversion. Yes, the entire window has to be changed, not just the center slider.

    Top table is tow//haul and bottom is normal. Top row is accelerator pedal position and the colored boxes are throttle body degrees. The larger the number in the colored box, the quicker the throttle comes on. This is exactly what all of these pedal commanders are doing. They are manipulating the signal going to the ecm to trick it. Nothing more, nothing less.

    Busy weekend. relocated the rear diff breather, removed the old spare, installed bed stiffeners, installed the hypertech/rough country speedo adjustment harness, and installed the FRAC harness and front facing camera. Used the yotaleds mounting plate for a clean install.
