Will the cognito upper control arms for the 2014 Silverado fit my truck with a 3.5” lift with factory 17 “ wheels and 33’s ? Does anyone on here have this set up ?!?!

 

thanks

Anyone have pics of a 2wd CC with 5 or 7 inches of lift? I just bought a 2018 and ordered the Maxtrax 5" spindlelift and some 33/12.5 and 22x12's. Wondering if that will look like too much lift for the 33's. 

Thanks

There are about 800 pics of 5-7” lifted trucks on 33/22 combo. And 2wd/4wd look the same. Just do a little search. Not everything needs to be spoon fed

Search here, other forums, instagram, FB, customwheeloffsets.com. Hell, mine is lifted 4.5” on 33/22s

Thanks for your reply, I asked because a lot of the pics don't have discriptions or they are very vague on what they have. Don't worry about it

Anyone using the inline hypertech calibrator? Don't want to the void my warranty, but want to definitely re calibrate my speedo after I put the lift and 35's on.

No but I did recalibrate with Diablo i2 tuner.

Here is my 2014 Z71 Crew Cab with a Rough Country 2 1/2" leveling lift kit and 275/70/18 tires.

5" knuckle with 33/22x12 combo. Will be doing a 1" lower strut spacer and adding a 2" block to the rear shortly.

Hi All.  New to the GM world.  Just picked up a 2017 Denali 1500 about a month ago and are looking into 6 to 7 inch lifts.  I'd like to clear 35s and the two wheels I'm trying to decide between have -19 and -18 offsets.  I've learned through browsing this site that I have to get a kit that works with Magneride and also figure out which upper control arms I have.  Here are a couple pictures I took, is it safe to assume that I have the one piece cast steel?  Thanks in advance!

Those look more like stamped steel from that view.

Look into the BDS 6” kit which does work with magnaride and is a great kit

Oh dang, really???  Good thing I didn't buy anything yet!  I've been looking at the BDS 6", heard it was a good kit, just hoping that it will give me the clearance I need that the RC 7" kit will... Which I heard is not as good of quality.

BDS has a good reputation

    • You could try a used 1, they used that engine in the Astro vans, Plenty of them in the boneyard. Look for a wrecked or rotted 1 so the chance that it was scrapped for that reason and not a mechanical issue will be greater
    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • That computer lies!
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.
