Probably because most people that will go 5 would probably just go 7. That's my guess

lockey14s is right. It would be nice to shim them. They have them out there like that to keep the spring from winding up (wheel hop) so bad under heavy throttle. It may crimp the spring over time, but I bet it will be fine. The only concern I would have is that in increases the spring rate. Read that as a rougher ride.

I'm just curious because I'm kind of a newbie to IFS, is The Zone 4.5 or 6.5 good lifts for the money? I have a jeep so this will be more of a pavement princess then anything. I just wanna fit taller tires more for looks than anything. Any input would be appreciated thanks!

Just got mine back today. Zone 4.5, with 18x9 Black Rhino Sierra wheels, 33x12.50x18 Toyo RT. Will be upgrading tires next week to General Grabber (Red Letter) 35's.

 

Sorry only pic I have as of now. It rides great can't complain.

What's the overall height of the truck now?

I have no clue. I didn't get it back till late this evening. Drove in 2 hrs of traffic, and got home and have been out to look at it. I came from a RC 2.5 kit. The real height will be after I get the other tires on.

Hey guys, i just recently purchased my first sierra (2014 Sierra 1500 SLE double cab) and I'm looking into leveling it or putting a small lift on it. The only problem is that i have a 7 foot high garage that I still want to use. Anyone have any input on overall height with the lift/level that they have and what size tires. Thanks for all your help!

I have 5" zone lift on my 15 Sierra HD on 35s. Also have 7ft Garage doors and I clear it with about 3" to spare. ac424ef77ce0e87396747ae9d7660f13.jpg

Now do you have any issues with the antenna on the top. I think that's where my issues going to be

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
