YQatari do you have any pics? Would love to see them. As for mod the speedometer I hadn't put much thought into that yet. Would hate to void the power train warranty... As for LT vs P? I have no idea what that is

 

Speedometer will be off a little bit with 275/60R20, about 1.5-2%, no big deal.

Here are a few pics taken with my phone.

For the same reason I did a 1.5" leveling kit on my truck and leaves the rear .5 to .75 higher. I still clear 285/70/17 tires with no problem.

Anyone running a 1 inch leveling kit? Looking for pics or reasons not to. 2 inch was too level for my use.

 

One reason I haven't done it yet is because I don't want to void the warranty.. and I've heard on here that any suspension mods will void warranty for suspension.

The only component you might have to worry about them not honoring the warranty for is the ball joints.

When my old GMT-900's went out at 25K, my dealer changed them under warranty despite the truck having a leveling kit.

Did a 2" leveling kit yesterday. Here is before and after with stock tires & wheels. New ones on order.

I went with a 2" level because I had heard some stories/rumors that a 2.5" can mess something up with electrical or something along those lines. How true it is - I do not know. The 2" looks level to me, getting some new tires put on today, I'll post some new pics later today.

Have the 2.5" on mine now for two months and have had no problems at all.

For those that have installed a 2 inch front level kit on their Sierra or Silverado, what's the largest tire you've put on without rubbing? I want to put 33's or a little more on my Sierra.

33's on mine, not an issue at all. Looks like I could clear a little more than that. Agreed with above, have seen some with 35's but that might be the 2.5" kit.

All done with tires. 275/70/18 Nitto Terra Grapplers.

(Window tint later today)

    • ^^ Yep, that's all it was. The fuel line had rubbed through on one of the spider legs and was severely leaking. Even the lines/nut and bolt kit are harder to find and I think I paid $84 (Standard HK-11) for the kit. Ripoff. But when you're the only brand still making it...   There are a few things left before the truck is Atlas® Certified (and I've thoroughly spent too much on it considering what it's worth). My RockAuto shopping cart total is about $250 and growing:   -Radiator (there's a pinhole leak, driver's upper corner where a cooling line bolts in, the threaded insert weld cracked) -Water pump (mine squeaks, I assume it's shot) -Lower radiator hose (it's original, if replacing cooling parts, this shall be touched too) -Starter (It's not always engaging the flywheel, get the whirrrrrr sometimes when I turn the key but no crank) -Door hinge replacement pins (already purchased, need to install)   Suspect/borderline parts NOT included in shopping cart (only if I want to opt for bonus points): -Motor mounts. Someone twerked the radiator fan shroud, so I can't tell if the motor mounts are bad/squished or if it's truly just a deformed fan shroud. I reassembled the shroud correctly but the plastic is still re-forming/relaxing where it was all mangled and bent, and the fan still chafes it occasionally, but it's 99% better. -Left rear door speaker is blown -Rear wiper motor is shot (horrible grinding noise) -One of the wheels is missing the bowtie center cap. This drives me insane to look at, I'll just need to find a replacement.   I've already replaced: -Driver's door mirror -Idler pulley -Tensioner pulley -EGR -MAP sensor -Hood prop retainer -Intake plenum fuel lines -Intake gaskets -Thermostat (and flushed cooling system) -Radiator cap -Radiator overflow reservoir cap   And it needs tires, and could use a set of front brake pads, and the brake system flushed. And it could use a transmission service, and if I'm doing that, why not differentials, and transfer case, and oh hell, why not flush the power steering.   Is there anything I won't touch? Or...do I just get it to a point where I can send it down the road?
    • Was checking out a 39 Buick at a charity auction and found the statement on the cover of the owners manual interesting. What it can do for you, and what YOU can do for IT? Framing your ownership as a two way relationship! Seems this type of thinking is all but gone with the non-enthusiasts, and something like that would never be printed on the cover of a manual. It would likely offend people. Hey, I just spent two years salary on an SUV and it has the nerve to request anything back from me???? 😂
    • thanks, I'll look for that now.
    • Make sure your phone software is up to date.  Some people have had issues lately with bluetooth on GM radios and their phone had a security update or something that fixed it.  
    • Assembly Turorial   https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/news/here-s-how-cruise-control-actually-impacts-fuel-consumption/ar-AA1MJ3a4   Take the time to read the link and the document linked note how the writer parses the wording to reach unspoken information that is just as important as the information presented on face.    Some procedure works for marketing presentations.    Maybe you might wish to reconsider; 'Critical Thinking'.
