I started a thread for my truck but i thought i would add it on here as well :) got the Zone 4.5" lift, RBP 96R wheels, and Toyo AT II Extremes 295/60/20. I had some minor trimming done but its barely noticable. The truck rides GREAT! very close to stock. I'm extremely happy with the way it turned out!

Thanks Steve,If you don't mind can you tell me were you got it and how much,and did you do the install,thanks for your help

 

I got it from a wholesaler on eBay for $950 and I had a 4x4 shop put it on (thats the only way the dealership would still let me have my warranty if professionally done) and that cost me $650 but i sold my stock wheels for $700 so i don't consider it an expense really

Just curious, I have a 2015 silverado 1500 and I have a set of 275/55/20 cooper zeon ltz tires on a 20x9 ultra driter rims with a 0 offset. Do I need to put a leveling kit in to run these or can I get away without it?

And the Self level air bags need to be installed as u can see it sits too far back by 1.5 inches.

Guys with the 6.2L and 33"-34" tires how much power did you lose? I was looking at a 295 60 20 Toyo AT2 and I'm worried about power lose, I don't want it to be a dog.

I have the above red truck. 6.2 with max package 3:72 gears. It's no dog for sure as is. I did notice a power lose but overall not that much . Keep in mind I am judging from seat of pants and being higher up it gives u a feeling that u r moving slower. The rolling weight I added was about 20 pounds more over stock per tire / wheel.

I have been watching the lie o meter and it's down on mpg but then again I need to adjust for a slightly taller tire. Mpg is a good base line for the amount of power / efficiency lose from the lift kit.

I have 35s and noticed some power loss but it still has plenty of power especially with a diablew custom tune. I'll still regear when a new ring and pinion become available. Definitely not a dog.

24s on a lifted truck? Omg I bet those low pro tires would blow a sidewall in wet grass. :jester:

 

 

But seriousuly that truck is nice! Minus the cockstars. A truck that nice needs 24" American Forces.

    • I have never seen GM instructions for the other trucks as per the HD with the 6 speed or the half tons but had got the impression that the HD trucks with the 6 speed were not having the same problem that the 10 speed and pan presented. Also video that I have seen of the HD 10 speed with the gas engine starting in 2024 model year showed that it was a real struggle to even make it work when pulling down hard on the exhaust after undoing the exhaust hanger bracket on the side of the transmission as after all there is little room for the pipe to even go down behind the Y joint as it soon would hit a frame cross member. Also that they had tried just like I did with the gasket off and no way was that pan coming out any way they tried to manipulate the pan. From that as well as the local transmission shop talking about the pain in the rear issue, I was not expecting my pan to come out because GM shows it was not even intended to come out without dealing with the exhaust piping.    It would be nice to claim, here's what you do and its easy to remove the pan guaranteed on any HD truck with the gas 10 speed but dollars to donuts the next guy trying what I did would not have the same luck as the exhaust was just manufactured slightly different and be pissed off at my claim that the pan comes out with no issue. Its more of a try and see if your particular truck might work like mine did .... or not !. 
    • Sorry I didn't see this until now, but it works on both the 6 speed and 10 speeds, as well as all the half tons too.
    • Hello, I have a 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 that I recently changed both motor mounts on due to the driver's side being blown out. After replacement I seem to have a steady vibration that I can feel in the pedals and the back of the seat. At this point I'm convinced that the aftermarket "Anchor" branded mounts I used are not performing as well as OE, the only real reason I ended up using the mounts in question was because my local dealers were out a few months to get a Driver's side mount. I've tried "Neutralizing" the mounts according to the motor mount TSB published for these truck to no avail. My trans mount is also in great shape and seems to be absorbing vibrations swimmingly. As far as I can tell there is no issues idling, my idle RPM is steady and I've recently put GM plugs and wires on, however, I have not cleaned the throttle body or intake valves. Any one else have a similar experience with aftermarket mounts? Patience certainly is a virtue that I wish I exercised here. Thank you!
    • I still saw people out for runs, on their bikes/motorcylces, jeeps with the doors off driving around here the past 2 days. I guess we are just used to it here haha.   Tasted like a bonfire the last 2 days.
    • The TCM has to be flashed before it can drive.   If you installed it the way it is, it has the OS (operating system/program) from the 2010 truck you got it from. That will not match with the VIN/OS pair that your 2013 truck has.   You can do the full install. Then tow it to a dealership and they can flash the trucks PCM/TCM with the latest program for your VIN.
