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

Stabilitrac is a wheel speed sensor. Has nothing to do with the lift, it is the tires. Based on the stock tire size the computer thinks there is wheel spin. You need to program for the new tire size.

Please help me...

 

I had a 7.5rcx lift put on my new 2016 Sierra last weekend with 35's. Now my stabilitytrac and traction control lights turn on when making turns at slow speeds. The CPU must think my truck is about to flip over when turning now. Anyone with this issue before? I need help!

 

Here's another issue I've noticed also... Now I'm getting a bad vibrating at 65mph and up after the lift, was fine before. I'm really starting to regret this whole lift thing. :(

Hmm I put 35's on and haven't programmed it yet and have had zero issues. Do you think there's more to it than that??

Thank you so much for giving me the answer to my problem. Never did have my CPU reprogrammed for the new tires. I think this will solve it. Thanks for the help buddy!

None of this is happening with my 2014 lifted 6" in 35s. Take it back to the installer and have them sort it out. Did they do a proper alignment and wheel balancing after lift?

I have the K1098 lift. Its in my garage. Hoping to install next week and trying to decide if I want to run the suggested 33" or try to squeeze some 35". For the 33" I am looking at toyo, nitto and coopers.. Love any feedback.

Hi everyone. I'm extremely new at the lift concept. Just curious why you settle with 33" tires if that's obtainable with a level kit? I don't mean any disrespect; however, if I can squeeze 33" in now. I'm thinking 35 or 37 depending on the lift.

I'm thinking the vibrations are from the wheels not being properly balanced. Have an appointment next week with the guys who did the work. Hopefully they can figure all of this out, that's what I paid them for.

 

Thanks for chiming in though. ?

I'm sure they can sort it out. Definitely don't pay them extra to fix what should have been done right the first time.

I totally agree man. It's a freaking headache dealing with this. It's a brand new truck too! Really upsetting.

Don't let it get to you man, it's still an awesome truck, just need to sort some of the little things out.

 

Double check all the wheel sensor wires, make sure they are not disconnected or damaged from rubbing with the larger tires, these sensors are like $40 at the dealer. I had one replaced under warranty in my 2014 because it rubbed on my tire and gave me stabilitrak issues.

Before my 4" lift I had a level with toyo AT2 extremes 305/55r20 and really liked those tires a lot. They're quiet, aggressive and wear well when properly rotated

Appreciate the encouraging words, I really do.

I setup an appointment with the dealership for Tuesday so they can go over it with a fine tooth comb. Hopefully they will solve it once in for all.

      And to top it off finally.......................these small GM LS engines are designed to SPIN!!!!!  Why choke them down to just off idle for cruising.  Why/how the "bean counters" have influenced the "engineering department" at GM is beyond me.   They took a solid platform of an engine and turned into a joke in OEM form!!!

      Atlas,   Then following your logic we can't believe any story that the MSM produces? I mean it's documented they heavily donate to Democrat candidates. Vote Democrat in high percentages. Many MSM talents are married to Democrat politicians, Gov. employees. That goes for on-air and off, personalities and reporters. So they would all be biased and nothing they produce is to be believed in your mind?   Again the article simply was about ways AI can be used for pricing products. Nothing discounted current situations as a factor.    Again keep looking through your left/right lenses. I don't live my life that way.   And as a heads up this thread will be cleaned up again as much of this is off topic and is receiving

      So you're saying toss the baby out with the bathwater? @txab posted article was her take on how AI can be used to manipulate pricing as it already does and has been rebuked by the judiciasry in housing. How AI can be and is used to maximize refinery or even Amazon operations all of which are true but because she is who she is; that makes what she says about what is true, false? Is that something akin to Pre-justice aka prejudice?    Look, I'm first in line to approach all information with caution just because we live in a world where people like to lie about someone or something with such a straight face and in such volume that it makes digging to the truth wearisome. Meaning I understand the skepticisms but if I were to toss out everything a person is for a view they hold then my pool of people to draw wisdom from would be non-existent and I'd be forced to reinvent the wheel daily. Not practical.    "Be innocent as a dove but as cautious as a serpent."    Test each word. Every good lie is part truth or no one would believe it. Find the truth in it and reject what isn't.    On this one, AI is being used to do what has been done by hand for hundreds of years already but at such speed, the point of a computer, that it is more easily monetized. This one wasn't that hard a lift.    I wrote a few formulas in a Lotus 123 program decades ago, a series of linked Macros actually, that allowed a daily inventory to be turned into a running P&L and production plan. Something that took three departments a week to assemble now took the time it takes to input the 'daily changes' in inventory. Later that was ungraded to the more powerful Excel program an and integrated with bar code scanning, inventory to supply was done once per shift. It had a huge impact on production scheduling, Seamless interruption flexibility, inventory error reduction, raw materials cost effective utilization and scrap reduction. Huge improvement in the bottom line. I spent months on that and AI could have done it in minutes. So yes, it not only can be used, they would be foolish to not try. The legality, ethics and morality are not the domain of AI. Humans need to keep a reign on it.
