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

How difficult was this kit to instal? I have 34" tires on my truck with a level kit. I would like a better proportioned height to wheel size. This looks perfect

I had 4 wheel parts install due to my dealer saying if I had a reputable shop install and if I kept it to 4 inches then warranty would be good.

Ok thank you. 4" just seems to be the right height

Here you go, let me know if you want anything else.

How much did it widen the front track width?

Those are the stock 17's that also come with the 2016 Silverado LT? They look good, did you need to use wheel spacers to reuse your stock 17's with that lift ?

Rancho 4.5 clearing 285/75r17 34 inch tire.

 

Clean truck. How is the ride quality? Where did you get it and how much it cost you?

Ride is very good. Running stock Z71 Rancho struts up front and Rancho 9000 on the back.

I see so much hate on Ranchos here. Is there a particular reason? I've always liked their products.

 

To be honest, the truck that I rode in that had Bilsteins just felt mushy. I'd rather have a stiff suspension than something that makes the truck roll around everywhere. I know it all comes down to personal preference, but I've never really understood the "Rancho = crap ride" statement.

It's because Rancho products are cheap and the quality reflects it.

Well I dunno about you but my truck is a z71 and it came with rancho shocks and they suck. So yes the ride is crap and I can't understand for the life of me why anyone would buy anything rancho for their truck after driving a stock z71

Funny, people that don't race cars assume that Brembo brakes are the shit. Then people with cars that come with oem brembo brakes think they are adequate/great. Then people who race cars know that oem brembo brakes are usually junk.

 

Point being that anything that is oem isn't going to be a premium product. Even though they have better products to sell. So rancho shocks "suck" but the only people that complain out of the hundreds of thousands of trucks sold with them are a handful on enthusiast websites...

 

Statically i would say that you're in the minority by saying they suck even if they could be better.

      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.

      How to Tune 6L80 Silverado transmission

      By ballencd · Posted

      New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.

      Sounds like a smart reasonable person with common sense. Bill O’Riley never said he was just a journalist, by the way.
