kylercochran361 Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 For anyone who was wondering about tire fitment with a 4" lift, here are a few pictures of my truck. I ended up going with a 4" Fabtech and 295/60R20 Nitto Trail Grapplers with stock wheels. Rides great and only slightly rubs the plastic wheel well and full lock. Hopes this helps anyone who was curious. Z71 2.jpgZ71 3.jpgZ71 4.jpg I hate you for this. I was going to go with a 6" and 35s but looking at your truck it makes me question if I really need that big of a tire. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk
NoleLife Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 Anyone have any popping/clunk come from the front of their truck after their lift? I've had the shop check everything and all bolts/connections/linkages related to the suspension and diff drop are all tight. Wheels as well. They recommended having the body mounts checked, since Silverados can have problems with them? They also said it could be driveline slack. Going to have it looked at during it's oilchange coming up, but figured I would see if anyone here has any thoughts.
BAD_GMC Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 Had some fun ripping my truck through the mountains this past weekend. Trails were in Big Bear, CA. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk You have some long travel on that bike, what type of bike? I have a 2016 trek fuel ex8 I play with on the trails down here in Texas. Nice truck/bike!

Thanks man. I love the truck and bike. That's my full on downhill bike with 200 mm of suspension up front (Boxxer dual crown fork). I use it at ski resorts in the summer that are lift operated bike parks/trails: Mammoth, Park City, Big Bear etc. Bike is 2013 Specialized Status II. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It doesn't do it since an alignment. The only other difference is it is much warmer outside now. I think the pop was a ball joint.

I am looking at purchasing this kit so I can clear 33/12.50/22 with a +12 offset. Looking for improved ride over the stock set up...so hard to figure out if it's worth the $2500 or just get a set of blistering 5100's for $350. Any input you have would be greatly appreciated. 2016 Silverado 1500 Wt Midnight Edition Camburg 2.5 Coilover Kit 285/70R17 BFG KO2 on Method "The Standard" 20160704_155641.jpg 20160704_165341.jpg 20160704_165537.jpg 20160702_182604.jpg Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk How is the ride with this set up?

The ride is perfect. I spent a lot of time looking for the perfect kit to level the truck and improve on and off road performance. I got exactly what I was looking for. The ride on road is the same if not a little better than stock and off road it is night and day. The coilovers really absorb large dips on road and rough dirt roads off road. Also the guys at Camburg are easy to work with and would answer any questions you have. I would call them because they have recommended wheel off set for this kit and right now i dont remember what it was. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk
zoomiejr2 Posted July 14, 2016 Posted July 14, 2016 Anyone having issues in 4wd after lift? I have zone 6.5 in my 2016 Sierra and when turning in 4wd I hear clicking noises and it feels like it's binding up quite bad, but going straight it feels ok. I just noticed this and lifts been on since February but I haven't really used 4wd Sent from my E6853 using Tapatalk

I'll take another look at it when I leave work but I believe mine is the same as before. There is a notable difference in feel, turning, handling, ride comfort in 4WD even when these trucks are stock. Did you use the 4WD prior to lift? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

zoomiejr2 Posted July 14, 2016 Posted July 14, 2016 I think it was because I was on hard dirt, getting to much grip kinda like what would happen on pavement. Lesson learned lol Sent from my E6853 using Tapatalk
Goatnola Posted July 21, 2016 Posted July 21, 2016 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.
