  1. If you have the Magnaride, I think Fabtech makes a 4" lift that is compatible.
  2. My brother in law has to be tested regularly for his job and Monday morning he tested positive on the rapid test. Our whole family including my daughter, son in law and two grand daughters spent the day on the lake. We also spent the night and made breakfast in the morning before returning home. Wife and I are scheduled for testing tomorrow afternoon. Brother in law has no symptoms whatsoever.
  3. My 4 1/2” CST will clear 35’s easier then the BDS 6” since it’s a bracket lift not a knuckle lift. It doesn’t increase the track width. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. You actually watch CNN?
  5. In Michigan they shut construction right down March 24th completely if it wasn't critical infrastructure work. I'm a flatwork contractor and we were shut down due to no redi-mix plants delivering. Our Governor let Landscapers go back to work 2 weeks before construction. She let construction open May 7th, I said screw it and went back a week earlier. Not sure how new construction is going to fare but I'm busy with private work. Seems as though people are wanting to spend money on upgrades for their homes. I'm booked at least into August right now.
  6. What state are you in that allowed residential construction during the stay at home stay safe weeks? I think Florida did.
  7. Because here in Michigan we have a dictator governor that is way over her head. She's trying to impress sleepy Joe and get the VP pick by shutting down our state. She's in the Auto manufacture's pocket, letting them start back May 15th cause the UAW endorsed Biden. Funny you can let thousands of people go back to work in the shops but she has no plan to let small business open.
  8. 2018 Silverado, 4 1/2” CST lift with 22x10-25 and 33x12.50/22 Toyo MT’s. Could easily do 35’s with stock wheels or a 22x9 with a 0 offset. I just prefer the stance with the 10 wides and a 33” tire. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. I'm back working since last Monday. Like I said earlier I'm a concrete contractor so most of my jobs are outside on either new construction or private residences. So far I've only had one of my main employees working with me. I'll need to call back the other two workers soon though. My phone is actually ringing off the hook for estimates, which is kind of surprising to me. I did 5 estimates yesterday and the first one the homeowner walked right up to me to shake my hand, I just kind of backed up and avoided shaking hands. I said that he could show me what he was interested in doing and I would take my measurements while keeping are distance. The next four places I went to, I really got the impression that no one was really trying to social distance. I had to mention it to each of them. I get the impression everyone is just tired of the whole stay home stay safe thing and are ready to go back to normal life.
  10. I watched It this morning, I saved it on my phone because I knew it would get taken down quickly. Anybody that want's to know what's really going on here should watch this. On another note, are dictator governor has opened up residential and commercial construction as of tomorrow. I said screw it and went back to work Monday. I'm a concrete contractor and here in Michigan we have a short enough season as it is. No point in making it any shorter, I've already lost a month of income.
  11. The cdc website updated the deaths in Michigan and now there less then half what they were. We will eventually see the real numbers and see that this is political for these Democrat governors.
  12. Yup, that governor in Maine is a whack job like ours here in Michigan. Our governor allowed Landscapers to go back to work over a week ago, but not letting guys like myself to go back till the 7th. I'm a concrete contractor doing basically the same kind of things a Landscaper does. I'm done waiting and we will start tomorrow.
  13. Most likely has the stamped steel control arms.
  14. She said no residents can travel to there second homes up North, but she traveled to her second home for Easter weekend.
  15. Our Michigan Governor is being a real over reaching jerk. She's way over her head and trying to get the VP pick with Biden. She will not get that and she will be a one term governor after this. She was voted in by the Detroit, Flint, and Ann Arbor libs, right where all the hot spots are. I'm sure she will extend the May 1st executive order, but I'm going back to work the next day regardless..
  16. Don't leave now, you were providing most of the sane posts.
  17. Social distancing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. It's just a small chunk of the pocket where the lower control arm mounts. The new crossmember supplied with the lift is where the LCA is relocated. The small piece that is removed is to allow clearance for the front differential to be dropped. The replacement crossmember is much beefier then the one removed.
  19. Yeap, I'll be going to work on April 30th. I'm a seasonal business and it's time to get going.
  20. Well our Democrat Governor just extended our lockdown till the end of April. I was looking forward to going back to work next Monday. She actually wanted to extend it into June.
  21. You definitely have a larger block in the rear than the factory block. I think the factory block is 1 1/4". You probably have one of the 3 1/2" kits, like RC or Superlift. You can measure the front strut spacer height to determine the amount of lift up front. Just double the thickness of the spacer and that's your amount of lift..
  22. Just take a look under the front end. If you have a crossmember drop then you have an actual suspension lift. If not you will just have strut spacers on top, bottom, or both. Most likely you have a spacer lift leveling kit.
  23. I'm right there with you, never had such a head start on the yard work.
  24. Depends on the lift and also depends on personal choice. I have a 4 1/2" CST bracket lift, so no track width increase. No spacers needed. However popular lifts like the Zone or BDS 4 1/2" are knuckle lifts, so they increase front track width 1 1/2" per side. I would say most people running a knuckle lift, add 1.75" spacers to the rear to even front and rear trackwidth.
  25. Some do and some don't. Typically with the Zone or BDS 4-4 1/2" lift, you will need 1.75" spacers in the rear to even out the front to rear trackwidth. Some people don't bother with the spacers, while others do.
