That's a fine looking ride.

Thank you!!! I couldn't be happier with how it turned out

That's a fine looking ride.

Thank I really appreciate it!

Well, my Fuel Mavericks are -24 offset because I wanted to add bushwhacker fender flares. I wanted the wide looking stance and if I went with -12 they would be tucked under the fenders.

Any pics showing offset with lift? I am currently running 285/75/18s on 18x10 -24 offset on 2.5 RC lift/level. But looking at 4-6 zone/BDS lift. And wanna see how far out they stick. Edited by Horner21

Need opinions. Looking at 4-6 inch lift to clear my 18x10 -24 offset w/ 285/75/18s. Don't want to go to big like the setup I have now but to much rubbing due to offset.

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.

Clean truck any more pics? Looking at getting 4-6 inch lift. Any complaints? Edited by Horner21

I have a 2014 GMC Sierra all terrain with 5inch rcx lift kit , 20x10 rockstar rims with -24 offset and 305/55/20 copper zeon ltz tires , amp power step , bushwaker pocket style fended flares , boral exhaust with metal mulisha 4 inch tip ... Looking to put 1.25 rough country or 1.5 zone body lift to fit 35's DFD72325-B97F-4856-8878-9A39CE53EAE4.jpg58D6ADDD-DD0B-4295-A056-58AA3C086C7F.jpg0B87492D-8483-4493-9835-52660D324184.jpg

Clean truck how are you liking the RCX 5 inch? Looking at getting a 4-6 lift. Did you use the bracket kit or knuckle it? Any complaints with RCX lift?

Hey everyone.

For the guys running the Mcgauphys 7-9 lift can the fox coilovers that cognito offers work since they are for cognitos 7-9?

Or if anyone has looked into running the fox coilovers with the McGauphys and know the correct part number that would be awesome too.

 

Also to ditch the blocks that come with that kit anyone know what size deaver springs to use. Looking for either level or the rear slightly higher.

Would love the Cognito 7-9 but the quote I got was $$$$$.

Deciding between 35s or 37s.

-24 wheels usually stick out pretty good. You should look at a rough country 5 inch bracket lift that keeps the track width stock. The knuckle lifts wheel push a -24 wheel out pretty far.

I am looking at them but wanting opinions and reviews on that lift.

Well I dunno man but personally I like the wheels and tires to not stick out and look a little more factory, allow for taller tires, etc. the BDS and zone lifts as well as most others will increase front track width. I have factory 20's and the fronts stick out MAYBE an inch so with anything 0 offset and negative you are looking at at least an inch and a half in front and greater. I also don't like spacer lifts. That's why I got fox coil overs so I can use more suspension. That's my opinion, but as far as reviews go I actually have heard from a few guys that the rough country lifts aren't very high quality. I've never ran them tho.

I am ecstatic how the zone lift works on my 2016 Sierra! Also has the ranch I front strut assembly! I have owned several truck lifted 6" or higher and this is the most stable smooth riding setup I have ever been in.attachicon.gifimage.jpeg

 

Looks good. Whats your offset? Also you got any views of the wheels sticking out?

Knuckle lift is easier to install and usually cheaper if you are comparing the same brand. Your wheel will stick out beyond the fender and you will have to run rear spacers in the rear if you want it to match. The bracket lift will keep all of your stock angle and stock track. Basically the way I look at it is my truck looks like it is 2500 HD that is maybe an inch taller. It looks like something the factory could build and is not overstated. I could not get away with a lot of the set up a that people run on here in Massachusetts Technically I am illegal now. But looking stock brings no attention.

 

Are you running the 5" RCX Bracket Kit? If so how do you like it? I am looking at that kit beacuse I am already running 18x10s -24 offset and dont want my wheels/tires sticking any further out then they are. Also anymore pics?

Yes this is the bracket lift. Only pics I have are the ones in this thread when I talked lk about my build and the one in my signature. Also I saw you ask chandler . His is also the bracket lift. It was mentioned easy on in this thread.

Almost forgot I love the lift. The shocks not so much. But I only paid 1000.00 for the kit so I can afford to upgrade the shocks. Fronts have the factory Ranchos which are fine by me. What other pics are you looking for I might be able to take a few more.

    • 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?
