TRG

The ride is great and they are quiet. They are not noticeably louder than the Bridgestone Duelers I replaced them with, which was surprising to me.

Same thing happened to me, but when on hilly terrain going downhill and is the reason why I deactivate grade braking when I know I’ll be driving in hilly terrain.

Thanks for sharing this! Has anyone tried messing with this themselves and resolved the issue?

Nitto Ridge Grapplers 275/70/18 on Fuel Mavericks ReadyLift 2.25" Level up front, stock block in the rear

I've never had an alignment done where they got the wheel straight. I've taken my current truck to two different places with no luck. If this was an older truck it wouldn't bug me so bad, but it's a 2018 and it's annoying as hell. I don't understand why this is so difficult to get right. Anyway, do you (or anyone) have any tips or tutorials that you could share that explain how to do this on a newer truck? I'm going to just take care of this myself, but have never tried it before, so don't want to mess up the alignment in the process. Thanks in advance! Edit: So I went ahead and just did it based on what I've viewed for vids on youtube, etc... The most difficult part was getting the the lock bolts loose on each tie rod in order to make the adjustments. I made marks on the inner and outer tie rods so that I could get each side as close to the same amount of turn as possible, but I'm sure it's not 100% exact, but it's real close. I guess I'll just monitor my tire wear and determine if being off a small amount causes any adverse affect.

I really liked the look of the Grapplers and didn't really care if they were going to be louder, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that they are quiet! They don't sound much louder than the Bridgestone Duelers I pulled off.

Is that a question to me or churchy1313?

Pulled off the stock 285/45/22s and replaced with 275/70/18 Ridge Grapplers on 18X9 Fuel Mavericks.

Thanks.

Looks good - what's the offset?

Thanks!

What's the tire/wheel setup - looks great!

Thanks. Looks great! Do you happen to have any pics looking front to rear/rear to front to get an idea of the stance? I’ve currently got stock 22’s with +24 offset and am looking to change for 18’s with either a +18 or + 12 offset to get a bit more aggressive stance. Still undecided on which way to go...

What's the offset?

That front end is brutal!

I replaced the stamped steel control arms with the ReadyLift tubular UCAs as I had read that going above a 2" level could cause stress/angle issues on the Stamped Steel stock UCAs. I don't have Magnaride and am not familiar with it.

I've got an '18 with the same size wheels and a 2.25" ReadyLift level and no rubbing what so ever.

Looks great! What is that tire/wheel setup?

Looks good - what size wheels/tires?

Looks good! Did you have to re-calibrate the speedo when you went with that size rubber? Also any issue with that size and gear ratio and/or noticeable power reduction? I currently have 45 and want to bump up to 55 to have more meat on the tire and not worry about dinging up the rims, but thought I heard that there could be an issue depending on what you have for a gear ratio....

Can you re-post the pic? I've got a 2.25" RL(nothing in the back) and 22" stock wheels and would like to see how that size tire looks.

I know your asking about a 2.5 level, but I did a 2.25 level on 22” stock wheels. Pic is on page 4 of this thread.

I've got an 18 Z71 and installed the Ready Lift 2.25" (left the back stock)and it's not nose high. I think it looks great. I've had a couple hundred lbs in the back and it didn't look noticeably nose high to me at all. I'm sure if I load it up it likely would, but that's few and far between for me.

Thanks for chiming in - I will give that a try!
