Silverado 1500 bumpy ride
SilverMak replied to Roberto Munoz's topic in 2019-2023 Silverado & Sierra Troubleshooting
I put the fox 2.0 on my 2020 Z71 and raised the front 2 inches and the back 1 1/2 with blocks. The floating feeling is gone and the truck is smoother on rough roads than it was with the ranchos. I have 20 inch wheels so the ride is still a little rough but much better than before. My friends that have full size trucks all comment on how much better mine rides than their truck. The highway multiple bouncy thing and actually rocking when sitting still and other cars went by was unbearable. -

Your AT4 looks good. Have you leveled it? How much difference do the new tires make in ride quality? -
i did it too. No issues so far.

Lift on composite leaf springs?
SilverMak replied to HvyChvy334's topic in 2019-2023 Silverado & Sierra Mods
I’ve got a 2020 LT 5.3 with composite springs. Lifted the back with 1.5 tapered blocks. So far no issues but I’m not doing any heavy off-roading. -
What Have You Done With Your T1 Today ?????
SilverMak replied to Sierra Dan's topic in 2019-2023 Silverado & Sierra Mods
Swapped the Ranchos for Fox 2.0 front and back. Front set to lift 2 inches, 1 1/2 inch block added to the rear. I’m now at 40 inches on all fenders plus the ride is much more to my liking. Now to adjust the headlights. -
Nice to hear from someone that had this happen and has a few miles on the engine without problems. This happened to me late last December and all of my lifters were replaced. My truck has been running great since then but I’m low mileage. How long has it been since this happened to you?

Looks great. Have you measured the fender heights? I think you’re right about the taller tire looking better. -

The weight of your tires is what got my attention to start with. I’m concerned about mpg but also I messed up the ride of my last truck with heavy ko2 tires and determined to not do that again. -

There seem to be very few choices in non LT bigger than 275 60 20. Nitto makes a 305 55 20 ridge grappler in non LT that weighs 4 more pounds than your 275 65 20 so I’m pondering the choices. Post some pics after you install your rear block, please. I have less than 1 inch of rake so if I raise the front 2 inches I’ll need to raise the rear also. -

I wasn’t aware. What size Cooper Rugged Trek are you running? How’s your ride with the Eibach struts? I mainly on pavement but definitely some off-road. Mainly mud. -

Thanks for the advice on the tires. I’ve seen the non LT but as you said, not in this size. How do you like the Bilsteins? -
Yes, please keep us updated. I’m very interested in what happens down the road with this issue. Good luck.

Can I get an update from anyone that had part or all of their lifters replaced? Any more problems, how many miles driven since, etc? I’m 5 months out from having all 16 replaced at 5k miles. No issues since then but still a little traumatized. TIA.
