In order to get the fan in right?

I killed by battery. Apparently happens when you sit in a parking lot listening to music and have your headlights on for 45 minutes and, your truck is not running. Had to get a boost from road side assistance who pointed out to me that my battery is undersized. So I replaced the battery with a brand new one. Now when I am driving the truck and go to brake, the truck stalls, unless I switch it into neutral, the RPMs just drop off the map. Is this normal after only replacing a battery?

Do a relearn cycle. I would post a link, but dont have it bookmarked. I bet that is your issue.

Exactly. The fan on the bulb was hitting the black collar lock ring. Trimmed about 1/2" off on the fan side and then they went right in.

I'll have to take them back out in the morning and trim that piece. They went in and I thought I heard that ball bearing looking deal lock but I can still see the o-ring

Sold the truck. Cam phasers went out at 270,xxx a buddy of mine, who owns a dealership,bought it as is. Went and got a 2016 Chevy 2500 Lt z71 package 6.0L. Saw my old truck in a neighborhood where I was working at.

Installed 1.25" hub centric wheel spacers. In case you are wondering, these wheels don't have recesses in the back of the wheel, so I had to cut off the factory studs to 1 1/8".
