L5P Tranny lines rubbing on bumper brackets

[Rivera.alan]

Anyone else have this problem with their L5P?

Is it lifted?

 

[Rivera.alan]

No, I just have a leveling kit

 

[Mike L.]

I've never seen the line rub unless the front was lifted.

 

[Rivera.alan]

I will attach an image. It is at the dealer now getting new cooler lines

 

[Rivera.alan]

Do you offer an aftermarket cooler?

If you dont lower the front of the truck, it'll still happen with the new set. So solve the real problem....

maybe its cause ive not really looked at one but i cant see how a cranked front end is causing this. Lift kit maybe due in part to how the crossmembers are installed and trans lines are ran but cranking the front shouldnt change it unless im missing something????

 

[Mike L.]

Were the line rubbing before the kit was installed?

 

[Rivera.alan]

Yes they were

Mine was rubbing when I reinstalled the front end.

Easy fix with a cut off wheel while there is no bumper

I looked on duramax forum and there is quite a few trucks out there with this problem actually. Even some sitting on dealer lots from what I read

What was it that you had to cut or trim?

Maybe I bent a bracket. I can’t remember. I was thinking it was plastic but it is the actual frame horn

It’s actually a common issue on the L5P. Almost every truck we have had in has had some rubbing right there, some are pretty bad for as little mileage as they have. My personal truck was rubbing through also.

 

[Rivera.alan]

how do you fix this problem?

Bring it over to my shop and we can look at it.

 

[Rivera.alan]

Are you available at all on weekends mike? do you recommend the dummy solenoid or EPC fooler? If so id like to knock that out as well

 

[Rivera.alan]

Just got my truck back last night. Dealer replaced the line that was damaged and "adjusted it". That was their fix btw
