2014+ Suspension Lifts

Austin.r321 · July 1, 2014

Its about 82.5 to 83 to the top of the onstar antenna. Not sure about the car wash. Around here they don't like wide tires at the car wash... I'll try it tomorrow and see.

Hey man, I've got a 14 Sierra SLT and the dealership told me that I cannot have a third party install a suspension lift without voiding the warranty. Did you have the dealership install your lift or did you have a local shop do it? Did it void the warranty at all?

Look in to Magnuson moss warranty act. The lift itself is not under warranty but having a lift will not void your entire warranty. If a part fails... the dealership has to prove the aftermarket part caused the failure. It's still a risk and if something breaks you may have to yell a little louder but a good dealership shouldn't give you any trouble.

The only rubbing I have is on the drivers side when I turn in or back into a spot or driveway sharply on an incline like a steep drive or a hill but its very little and its on the black little cap on the bottom of the fender like where I guess the dealer puts mud flaps. Its so tiny of a rub im not gonna trim anything

The two dealers I deal with are very different. One holds very strong to not wanting to deal with any truck outside of the maintenance warranty if you have a any combination of lift components (whether it be body and/or suspension) that brings your truck a total of 4" higher. They blame any break on the lift or if you drop the truck. "Oh sir, the reason why your headlight went out is clearly because you lifted your truck 5" and put on bigger tires. The bulbs are just not meant to be at that height"

While the other dealer lets you do YOUR truck the way YOU WANT because it's YOUR truck and you are the reason why they are getting business. You can drop, raise, hell, you could strap wings on it. They still warranty any GM part.

Moral of the story is, you gotta find a good dealer. One that is realistic and wants the customer to be happy on the road and at the dealership.

Well I ordered my 7" lift cant wait to get it on and new tires now I have a 2.5" leveling kit to sell amd 295/60/20 tires nitto terra grapplers with about 10,000 miles on them

Changed out the 35 x 12.50 Pro Comp Xtreme MT2 tires for some 295/65 20 Toyo AT2 Xtremes. They are .5" taller than the pro comps, .5" narrower and 12lbs lighter. Noise and Ride is alot better as well. I also have some chrome center caps coming for the wheels to mix it up a little. If anyone is curious, dropping 12 lbs per tire comes out to 1.5mpg increase.

@cataylor..those look real nice and not so much like a car tire like some othe ATs look like. I may be swapping my dick cepeks as well. They are way more agressive tire than what is portrayed on site. There loud and balance worth a crap..like 14-16 oz bad.

Yea, I was worried I wouldn't like them at first just because they weren't MT tires. Once they got them mounted and pulled the truck out I was relieved. They look really good in person, plenty aggressive for what I do and they run so much better on the road. Worth the money IMO. My other tires still had a lot of life left in them even though they had 11K miles on them. Sold them for 1K and recouped some of the cost of the new tires.

Sorry it took so long to get pics of the offset.

Rotten, your set up looks perfect! My BDS four inch should be here on Tuesday. Still on the fence as far as wheels go. Are yours 20x9 or 20x10? Do you know what your offset is? That info would streamline my decision. Thanks.
