  1. Replacing my shocks/struts with Bilstein 6112s and 5160s. Due to the salt on Michigan roads, I would like to be a bit proactive and replace the hardware with fresh OEM pieces. So far, I have the following: Lower Strut Bolts - 11610404 Lower Strut Nuts - Provided by Bilstein Strut Top Nut - Provided by Bilstein Lower Shock Bolts (#17) - 11611958 Lower Shock Nuts (#18) - ? Upper Shock Bolts - Same as Lower? Upper Shock Nuts - ? Front Leaf Spring Bolt (#11) - 11561039 Front Leaf Spring Nut (#13) - Included with above? Rear Leaf Spring Bolt (#12) - 11588857 Rear Leaf Spring Nut (#14) - Included with above? Additionally, I picked up the GM 23312166 Strut Mount, 22905563 Strut Bellow, and 22830628 Bump Stop. Is there anything else that I am missing in order to mount these up?
  2. Updating this in case someone in the future has a similar question and is unable to find concrete information. The 295/70/17 BFGs on a 17x8.5 ET0 will fit with slight rub at full lock on the fender liner. 315s, per our trial fitment, would likely need some massaging of the pinch weld at the very least. https://i.imgur.com/9sfkXx3.jpg https://i.imgur.com/jxKR0Tw.jpg
  3. What's your definition of stock? I don't consider a leveling kit and aftermarket wheels to be necessarily stock. Or are you referring to stock as "without cutting"?
  4. Dropped the truck off for a 2.5" MotoFab level as I need new tires and my Bilstein 6112 kit is still on backorder. Looking to see what is the biggest tire I can fit with the level and Methods in a 17x8.5 ET 0. Looking at the BFG KO2s in a 295/70, 305/65, or 317/70. I'm ok with rubbing on or trimming of any plastic, slight rub on the fenders, or some hammer work. Michigan winters and road salt prohibit me from cutting metal lest I want to be purchasing a new truck in 3 years due to rust.
