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

Does anyone know if the LTZ rims are the same size as the 5 spoke 20's i have on mine? (width, offset)

 

I have the RC 2.5 lift and want to do 305/55R20 terra grapplers on the stock rims. not worried about a little rub at full turn

Thanks, I'm going to go with the 275/60/20's (33's) It would be really close to hitting with the 275/65's. It might fit but I'm not willing to take the chance. I was looking through the pics if the guys running the same setup with the 33's looks good to me.

I have the 2.5" RC lift with 275/60R20 Cooper at/3, I measured before and after, the lift and tires gained me 3" lift in the front and 1.5"-2" in the back. Keep in mind that all tires in 275/65R20 size are LT tires. Many P tires are available in 275/60R20 size.

That's a heck of a difference in price, almost $100 per tire. I'm thinking I'll be just fine with the 275/60's.

Any rub? Did you do the 2.5" with the 1 inch lift block for the back or just the 2" up front?

Im going with the 2.25" readylift up front and nothing in the back. I have 275/65/r20 toyo at ii tires to go on. I am really hoping they will fit with no rubbing. I dont want to trim anything. It hard to get comparisons from here because lots of guys are using the rough country lift. Anyone else go the readylift route? I think they are a better made product.

My opinion on leveling kits is brand really doesn't matter. When you get into suspension its a whole other story. I've installed readylift on a different truck and it was just like the rest...

I agree KUUG but I was a little unimpressed to see the rough country 2" front level blocks were a composite material and not aluminum or other type of metal. It is on my truck and I haven't had any issues but piece of mind is worth a lot sometimes. I'd opt for the solid aluminum level blocks next time, but no name doesn't matter - just quality and material.

That was my first thoughts also. After I talked to a couple people that ran them for quite a while I decided to give them a try. Some of those ebay aluminum blocks are weaker than composites now a days; given those aren't usually name brand.

I am just running the Ready Lift levelling kit which gives a total of 2.25" of lift up front (1.5" from the top spacer and .75" from the bottom one). I have no lift in the rear, all stock. No rubbing at all with the 275-60-20". I'll post better pics once the roads dry up and I clean it.

How are you guys finding the ride quality, after putting the levelling kit on. Looking at getting the readylift at the end of the month.

Well guys here she is leveled and new skins. I haven't discovered anything rubbing and the ride is incredible over those crappy Goodyears that come from the factory. Leveling Kit was a $40 Ebay 2" level kit, Aluminum spacer. Also New Nitto Terra Grapplers, yes they are wide 305/60/18. The look is awesome compared to factory. Here are the images.

      I have a 2016 that I bought new and still own. I'm around 129,000 miles now. The biggest problem was a transmission failure about 2 years ago around 95000 miles. No warning, just failed while driving down a back road. A reman GM transmission installed and it's been fine ever since. A few other minor problems along the way. I am in no hurry to replace it. It's been paid off long ago and do plan on driving this as long as I can.   I will admit I am leery about all the additional electronics in the newer models and feel that it is just more potential problems. I think there's actually more than I would have wanted in this 2016 but so far so good. I think even if something major like lifter failure happened, it would still be cheaper to at worst, drop a new engine in than buy a new vehicle.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I’ve own several successful businesses. I’ve bought homes and lived in different states. I’d witness several generations buy homes and survive in different economic circumstances. You get awful sippy when people have different experiences than you do. You live a life. I’ve lived a life. It seems our experience has been different. You can point out generalized statistics. Some people learn how to thrive when the odds are against them. Living in different states does make a difference in a persons quality of life and economic outcomes and opportunities. That’s a fact Jack. It’s my truth, my life. Hard work and long hours the right environment made my families life easier. And yes moving to a different state increased the odds of that happening. Stats are generalized. People who thrive don’t make excuses. They beat the odds. Others get mad and point to those statistics. I guess that’s you. My post pointed out how you helped people beat the odds. Somehow your panties got in a wad. Go figure.

      Point of the post sir was that while both wages and cost are rising EVERYWHERE; the cost is rising faster EVERYWHERE than the ability to buy EVERYWHERE. We're not going down the location rabbit hole. I'm aware of what economic migration is. I've lived in four states including Texas.   It's what "Purchasing Power" means.   I'm not telling you what I think. I'm telling what the government, your government, data shows.   It wasn't an argument. It wasn't a suggestion. It was a statement of FACT. You are absolutely entitled to your own opinion. Your not entitled to your own facts. If you and I were, they wouldn't be facts.    fact /făkt/   noun Knowledge or information based on real occurrences. "an account based on fact; a blur of fact and fancy." Something demonstrated to exist or known to have existed. "Genetic engineering is now a fact. That Chaucer was a real person is an undisputed fact." A real occurrence; an event. "had to prove the facts of the case." The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition • More at Wordnik   If you'd like to disagree call your Senator or Representative and let him know his departments are in error. But you and I? We are not doing this.

      Transmission jumping out of gear while driving.

      By JimCost2014 · Posted

      Probably a one and done post, but do you have a CEL on the dash? Was having issues with my transmission, fortunately only a week, and it turned out to be the transmission harness. Valve body was in good shape, so new harness with all the sensors attached, new fluid, and filter. Seems to have worked so far?
