Did the BDS 6" with Fox shocks. 22x12 Sprockets on 33" Toyo MT's. Rides like stock, no rub no trimming.

Crappy pic, but this was right after it pulled out of the garage last night. 4.5 zone with fox in the rear, 35x12.50r20 nitto ridge grapplers on stock elevation rims. Ride seems better then stock, i

Very nice. You guys are really hurting my feelings with the sharp trucks and making me miss mine even more than I already do.

track width? The ride is a little bit rougher but is to be expected with 10 ply tires but by no means is it bad imo....the light bar is a 30 inch curve mounted to the radiator supports and 2 metal clips i fabed up!!

Thanks for all the info in this thread. I ended up with the following setup.

 

4.5" Zone suspension lift

20x9 (+10 offset) Hostile Hammered Wheels

33x12.5/20 Toyo Open Country MTs

1.5" Wheel spacers in the rear

 

Before:

2015 Silverado Before

Just the lift without wheels (looks lower in the rear because I had all my factory parts and crap in the bed weighing it down):

4.5" Zone Lift

 

After:

Side view

Angle view

Rear view after wheels

Track width = width of the tracks meaning is it still close to factory or do the fronts stick out further(wider) than the rear fixed by spacers to the rear. I want to do the same keeping the factory wheels and not have the goofy wide front narrow back look. What brand light bar? More pics of it.

Turned out great! The wheels look good. They look like they have a pretty deep lip for a 20x9 and positive offset. I might have to switch out my fuel nutz for a set.

Im curious, did you have the coilover or standard kit? The ride on the standard is great but I'm wondering if those newer version fox coilovers are worth the extra dough. They have adjustments for high and low speed. I went with the standard because I was told I probably couldn't even tell the difference.

 

Was also wondering about the fox 2.0's in the rear if they were a worthwhile upgrade...

I got the 6'' basic kit as money was an issue for me and the new coil overs, to me, wasn't worth the extra cost. The rear shocks do provide a quality ride so I did go that route.

      VSE CCV Bypass - Anyone have this installed in their L5P?

      By AbzDad · Posted

      I have the VSE CCV kit. It is a quality product. Fairly easy installation. I vent it back into the turbo intake horn, like stock. I check the reservoir monthly. I have seen oily water come out. So far, after 6 months I would say it has collected about 8-10 ounces of crap.

      Navigating senior years.

      By Donstar · Posted

      I'm getting out in public more these days and rely on a walker for anything more than short distances.  I am impressed with how kind others are in their efforts to assist when they see me doing the old man walker shuffle!  I find teenagers hanging out at the mall are often the first to get ahead of me to open a door or to offer me the opportunity to get in front of them in a lineup!  I am very fortunate that this is temporary for me and I have a developed a huge appreciation for those seniors struggling to maintain some mobility. Walkers, canes or scooters will assist with mobility but they don't eliminate the challenges.  Chances are the individual using these devices are hurting.  A few kind words of recognition from a stranger can take away the discomfort for a few moments.  I am looking forward to paying forward all of the kindness I have received!

      6 Speed vs 8 Speed

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Curious @newdude, how does this change when a 6L80 is either fitted with a billet converter OR is behind a V6 whose converter isn't a pile of junk? Oh, and are you saying in the above the 4-5-6 clutch's burning up is the result of the converter/pump induced failure or they are just fragile? Thanks in advance for any feedback you may be willing to give.

      2021 with Intermittent AC Cooling Issues

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      5.3 Sierra with approximately 80,000 miles had a radiator replacement about 6 months ago which required pulling the AC condenser and a vacuum and recharge on the system.  AC cooled fine until about a month ago, when it would suddenly start blowing lukewarm air for 5 minutes at a time at various points throughout the day, then suddenly resume cooling again.  Sometimes its when stopped at an intersection and other times while moving.  I've read about the internal electronics in the compressor going bad on these trucks and not cycling properly, but sounds like many dealers just chase AC issues with a parts cannon.  Also wondering if they charged it correctly when the radiator was replaced.   Is there an easy way to see if these electronically driven compressors are engaging properly, or to check for freeze up, etc.?  Dealer usually wont do much unless they can replicate or I can show them a video of what's going on.

      Shift to Park Message Warranty Claim

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      Apparently it doesn't trigger a fault, at least according to my dealer, but in one month its gone from once or twice a week to several times a day, so you can catch it on video and its likely to be seen by the dealer.  I've heard some have replaced only the switch, yet others have required full shifter assembly replacement to the tune of $900+?
