I've seen one with 35's. Problem is, they don't give very good specs as far as if trimming was required and what wheel offsets are on the truck. I'll dig up the picture of it.

 

 

Here's the one I saw. But, don't know any specs on it unfortunately.

So i put my RC 2" level kit and Toyo 295/55/20's on this weekend. Install was simple, just like on my 2011. It definitely helps to have an extra set of hands when wedging that spacer in there. 295/

Thanks. Here is one more from yesterday. Considering we're getting 8-10 inches of rain the next two days, I won't be taking any better pics soon.

Mine is finally done! After months of research I went with the RC 2.5" level kit front only, stock rear block. 20"x9" Fuel Nutz w/ +1 offset, 33x12.50x20 Toyo M/T tires. No rubbing, No trimming, yet a

This is my plan.. offset may set me back thou...

 

 

2" level (2.5 inch actually only lifts about 1.5" from what i read) Stock 20's with a 305 55 R20. Right now it has 275 55 r20

 

 

I may have to use wheel spacers to move it outward away from the sway bar

You'd be the first I've seen post specs what it takes to accomplish this. So, if you do it, please help us timid ones out :help: so we know we've got it right the first time.

 

I believe the stock Rims are 18+ offset... I want the so cal look (Front little taller then the back) I am thinking the 1.5" wheel spacers will be needed. I will try without first

 

 

Trying to source a 3.5 inch level

 

 

I know they have them for my 07 so they are out there

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. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

Where did you hear about this?

 

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

 

That's good to know. Maybe I'll keep an eye on things and go up that .5". Although I don't know if it will really make that big of a difference. Keep us updated - like I said it was most likely stories/rumor, but not something I wanted to risk. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

 

I have had my 2.5 for just under 6 months and have put over 10,000 miles on it in that time. No problems what so ever.

I am actually going to call the tire place tomorrow and see if they will take them back and order me the same tires but for a 20" wheel. Think it might look a little better - I they will do it. Doubtful.

I just got a 2in BDS Leveling kit installed at dealer. That is what they recommend because I tow trailers with my truck. Looks great and level. The ride of the truck has changed. It is a lot stiffer almost like a 2500 HD. I also upgraded rims from 18s to 20s.May have a bit to do with ride?

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By PBNB · Posted

      Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
