Not bad at all really. Hardest part was getting the old stuff out. I had a little interference with the driver side primary and the frame but a quick y pipe adjustment took care of it. I’m actually pretty happy with the TSPs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just installed some Texas Speed longtubes with catted Y pipe and a Blackwidow Venom 250. Little bit on the raspy side and I’m pretty sure the cold starts wake the dead. I’m sure my neighbors are happy. I’m going to put a AFe resonator in front of the muffler to tone in down a touch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice truck. How bad does it rub with the BFGs? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I originally trimmed the plastic protectors and massaged the fenders back. I ended up doing the Zone trim plates to get a little more clearance. I think I could put new plastic protectors on and it would clear now. Only rub is at full lock in reverse on the carpet liner. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m not sure why so many are against that extra 0.5” in going with a 3” level. I’ve seen guys say they’ve had no issues and some say they’ve “heard” horror stories. I wonder how much of this is first hand experience and how much is just people repeating what the internet experts or local tire shops are saying. My CV angles are at 11 degrees with a Crown Suspension 3” top mount spacer. No vibrations, no noises, etc. I plan on upgrading to some coilovers and adding a diff drop but I’m happy with it for now. I have RC Forged uppers and honestly this thing doesn’t ride any worse than stock. I’ve ran 2”, 2.5” kits and Bilsteins on previous trucks and really couldn’t tell a drastic difference in ride quality for any of the set ups. Regardless of what you go with, get an alignment once installed and regularly check your front end. Yes I know the Cali lean is not a popular look around here. I’m running 315/70/17 KO2s. My front fenders are just shy of 41” This is a Mcgaughys lift. Not sure what it is set to but my angles aren’t this bad. I know there are better lifts out there that give nearly stock angles but thought this was interesting being a “real” suspension lift. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good lookin truck. [emoji1360] Can’t say I’d change a thing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry they’re actually a little closer to 32.7 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Agreed. However a 315/70/17 comes out to around 34.4 when you do the calculation. Mine are measuring 34.5. Most guys just call these 35s though. The Falkens are pretty beefy. We have some 285/70/17 Falkens on my wife’s Tahoe and there right at a 33.

Just for reference. 315/70/17 Bfg v 275/70/18 Falken Wildpeak I didn’t rub at all with the Falkens on stock wheels. The new Methods are a 0 offset which definitely doesn’t help with the rubbing. The Bfg is right at 34.5” on this 8.5 wide rim. The Falkens are just over 33” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not at all. Haven’t had a chance to cut all I need to cut but I will post pics when I’m done. It’s drivable right now but definitely needs some more clearance. I think I may raise the front another 0.5”. That should help Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just installed some Method Racing Double Standards on some 315/70/17 Bfg KO2s. Trucks got a 2” level so yes it rubs and needs to be trimmed but I’m in love with the look. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What lugnuts are you using? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

How are you liking this kit? First time seeing it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve heard they settle about .250-.500 after a couple hundred miles. That’s what the guys at Procomp said. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks great. You could throw a diff spacer kit on there if you’re worried about the cv angles. How does it ride? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Did you get everything installed? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Correct. Toyo At 2 Xtreme. I had to trim with the 0 offset Method. I miss that set up Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve leveled the last 4 GM crewcab trucks I’ve had using a variation of spacers, Bilsteins, and a body lift. I’d say out of all those the best set up is probably running Bilstein 5100s at on the highest setting which should get you around 1.85”-2” of lift and removing the rear lift blocks. This should get you pretty much dead level, all the suspension components should still be happy and your ride will be as good or better than factory. I’m currently running a Rough country 2” level with the rear block removed. It sits about .5”-.75 higher in the front. Most people don’t care for the nose high look but it’s really hard to tell with this set up. You can spend anywhere from $100 to over $3000 on a leveling kit. It all depends on your budget and what you want out of the truck.
