Is anyone running bajakits upper control arms on here?

I'm wondering the same thing. They are local to me and about $100 more than some other companies, but they do look like good quality.

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

Ok I don't think this is supposed to happen. I had to pull off the side of the road to allow an ambulance to pass and I went up on a curb at about 5mph and lost my front right suspension. I love my McGaughy's lift, but their shocks have allot to improve on. 5a038a61caf99848c51035a28358c7c0.jpg92fef5cc595b20fb964ce5319f952fe9.jpg22171c113712b1d6e629a1b536f6c672.jpgc61d8f6909a553334ab96844390a54ca.jpg

So I'm about to do a lift kit on my 2015 1500 Silverado 4x4. I really will only be driving on pavement but will every once in awhile do some mild off-roading. I am looking at the BDS 4" kit with fox 2.5 coilovers with DSC Or I am looking at The Zone 4.5 inch kit with the fox 2.5 coilover with DSC. Someone please tell me what your opinions are! Thanks in advance.

Glad you looked at better options as far as the bds or the zone. I have the zone 4.5 with the fox 2.0 shocks. I was in the same boat as you. Mostly pavement but I have been impressed with the kit so far Im guessing the 2.5 might be a little overkill and costly but its not my money. Not sure on how the ride is different between the two.

I had the basic 4.5" lift. I put the fox 2.5 coils with resi's and drove from Cali to Utah and back this past week. truck drove awesome and i no longer had that front end dip that trucks do on rolling sections on the road. the front end stayed firm and level. On my way back i picked up the fox 2.0 rear shocks and bds leaf springs to replace my shitty leafs. i will install them at some point this week

That's sick! How do you like the fox coilovers? I was thinking kings myself just don't care for the blue and the extra money to get them powder coated.

Thanks! So far i am really happy with the coilovers. It's much better than before. I will see how it feels once i put on all the other suspension parts

Just curious if anyone has done this and if its even an option without messing anything up

 

I ran across these Rancho Loaded QuickLift Complete strut assembly RS999901 which are listed as leveling kits up to 2" seems better than just adding the spacers.. But my question is could you combine these with the 4" lift or even the 3.5" lift to get the height without such large spacers in the front?

 

opinions?

Feedback from anyone that has done it that way?

 

Ive been ready to buy my kit, but having to wait a bit longer to finish paying off a few things before i add more.

wildchevys,

 

So your response is yes it would work to get these along with the 4" lift to get a 6" over all height?

      Acceptably cheap tires?

      By Atlas · Posted

      Which one, the AT or AS?   Starfire is made by Cooper/Goodyear but at $85/tire I'd think I'd need to level-set my expectations that they may not even be round 😉 But you're saying they're decent?   I'm already into this thing $1506 in parts, fluids, etc. Totaled all my receipts today. $250 of that was replacing an EGR and MAP sensor that were probably fine, but I'm not going to return the parts since they've been installed. I'm cheap, but not that cheap. I use it, I keep it!   I may or may not make money if I sell the truck at this point, but, that wasn't really the point. And if I billed my time, I'd be hosed for real. My thought on the tires is I "might" put 1,000 miles on before selling it. I just don't want to put absolute junk on it, that doesn't do anyone any good. If the Solus solidly isn't junk, I'll definitely consider them.

      Is your l8t engine bay super dusty?

      By rjgvt · Posted

      I leave mine as is. I'm always a trip away from riding on unpaved roads. Dealer can clean it when they prep it after I trade it in for another new truck.

      I have these on two vehicles and love them. Pepper is one of them 😉

      4WD. Far as I know it came stock with P's and not LT's. Definitely planning to put P's on it, but stock is a 109 XL load rating so I should probably stick within that guideline.   No rebates on anything I can see at the moment. Discount Tire is offering $50 off, but Pep Boys is very competitive on price, and also carries all the off-brand stuff. Les Schwab always wants an arm/leg, but they do good work.   It still has the original spare. Goodyear Wrangler RT/S, thing looks like a tractor tire LOL!! How times have changed.

      2020 Sierra 2500 windows rolling down

      By JohnRoy · Posted

      2020 Sierra 2500 HD (base model) gas engine 4wd.    All 4 windows roll down on their own. Happens somewhat randomly after stop and engine off - when engine turned off, when walking away from vehicle before or after locks activated. Pulled the window fuse F14 Instrument Panel Fuse Block Right; the driver's side still activates from driver's side door panel; passenger and back seat windows activate from local switches on their doors but not from driver's side group of switches. Power mirrors don't activate with fuse removed either (same fuse for both circuits). Problem not solved.    How can they even activate with fuse removed but they are all still opening and can control from each door?  When they open on their own, I can shut them from the switch in each door, but they don't stay closed.    Seems to be activated somehow with key fob; something bumping the key fob in my pocket or just handling - removed key fob and took it far enough away and now the windows stay closed. Replaced key fob batty just in case, no change.    Sounds like some kind of wiring short or maybe electronics. Dealer will first replace electronic control module without checking anything else and I anticipate problem will still exist since their troubleshooting skills are limited to "do whatever the computer says".  In any case, keyfob seems to be activating the circuitry.    Surely I'm not the only one with this issue, but I can't find anything related on the site. What do yall think?   JohnRoy
