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.

Thanks. From what I know all I need to level are the front shocks. Which part number are those?

Because that's what I wanted. My truck is not a 4x4 so I was not going to level the front past the 39 inches and have it look like a 4x4 when I know it's not. If I'd gotten a 4x4 then I would of just lifted the front.

That makes no sense, your truck just looks broken that nose high

That's okay if it doesn't make sense to you there's a lot of trucks that don't look right to me but to each their own. I'm not making payments on their trucks.

I simply think there is a misunderstanding. The terminology you are using sounds like you lowered the back of your truck 2" and raised the front 2.5". Is this what you meant to say?

Yeah that's what I did. The truck has a squat it just depends how the picture is taken that makes it look really squatted or very little

OK. I am also curious as to why you'd choose this look. I read your earlier posts and I understand that this is the way you want it to look. A truck that is lowered has a street cruiser appeal. A truck that has a rake looks ready for hauling. A level truck looks aggressive. A truck that is squatted looks compromised or that it is too heavily loaded. This is not a criticism, I am just very interested!

Here's another picture. As to why well I'm from California and here it's a style. What works for us might not work for others and what works for others might now work for us.

      Oil Consumption

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I agree.   However, the owner's manual, suggests that a drop over full is just as bad as a drop under. (Read black and white letters only, insert no common sense.)

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      That P0700 and loss of power suggests something significant is amiss to me.   More/other codes may suggest otherwise; I would investigate those prior to spending the money to change fluid on a transmission with a bad torque converter.    The relatively sudden escalation of symptoms to me suggests that something began failing (initial shuddering experienced) and rapidly deteriorated (slipping/loss of power). Fluid condition alone wouldn't cause the sudden escalation of problems - though it might have been the cause of the deterioration up to the point of failure.

      AWD conversion to Z71

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Stabilitrack operation is in a sense a separate/independent operation from the operation of 'traction control'. Stabilitrack is used to keep the vehicle traveling in the DIRECTION intended, it can brake independent wheels and or adjust throttle to influence the direction the vehicle is moving.   This can be illustrated by a 'fish-tailing' example. At high speeds, if the stabilitrack detects excessive yaw (the vehicle spinning like a top, it has a sensor for this), based on inputs from steering angle it determines that the vehicle is spinning out of control, and begins working to control that unintended spin. By reducing throttle input or braking specific wheels to control or prevent the spin.   The traction control works similarly using the ABS system to slow spinning wheels and thus transfer power to 'other' wheels. The goal being to achieve wheel speeds that are all in agreement with each other, the truck then assumes that since all the wheels speeds are the same no spinning is occurring. For example, launching up a wet boat ramp, there is no excessive yaw present, traction control alone can manage the wheel spin by braking spinning wheels and cutting throttle.   Stabilitrack and traction control from a hardware and software standpoint are basically one in the same, I don't remember specifically in 2004, but you couldn't get a truck with one and not the other. The switch on the dash, could turn off the traction control, but not necessarily the stabilitrack.    A confusing comment about stabilitrack vs. traction control, the same components serve both operations, but marketing could advertise them as two separate features.    The AWD system is another separate system entirely, in addition to the other two, it uses the same wheel speed inputs but can also vary the transfer case clutch application to direct some power to the front axle, working in conjunction with the traction control to bring wheel speeds together.   The power split will never be greater than 50:50, the same as 4-high. It will never direct MORE power to the front axle than the rear.

      Start-Stop ?

      Not based on the new photos I'm seeing.  Car and Driver posted additional photos that shows an auto stop start button left of the steering wheel.

      2027 Chevrolet Silverado: Official Discussion

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      Car and Driver is reporting wireless CarPlay WILL remain, and they posted several additional photos, including a left knee shot, but the only hard buttons there are e-brake, auto start stop, tailgate and cargo light.  Also definitely looks like High Country and ZR2 get micro fiber on the center of the console lid and the ZR2 possibly also on the seats.
