It's going to be a daily driver as well, only pulling a trailer on some weekends. Just looking to level it for the rest of the time

 

Just one of the many reasons a set of airbags is a good addition for anybody who ever hauls anything heavy with these trucks. You don't need to drive around with 3" of rake all the time just so it'll be level when towing.

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

2015 Z71 4X4 SLT Sierra

 

RC 2.5" leveling kit with the under the coilover spacer installed.

 

Still on the stock Goodyear SRAs.

 

I plan on installing the spacer for the top of the coilover and replacing the factory rear block with the block included with this kit before I make a decision on the tires.

 

275/65-20 or 305/55-20 BFG KO2s?

 

I like the height of the 275 and the width of the 305, unfortunately the BFG KO2 doesn't produce the size I would like in a 295/60-20.

 

I drive 55 miles one way to work.

Truck looks great! For that kinda driving stick with a 275/60/20 and make sure its a P rated tire not L. Save some gas.

That's a typo. It should read 275/65-20.

does RC make a body lift for our trucks, I looked but couldn't find it on their sight. I was thinking about doing the 2.5 RC level with a 1.5 in BL to run 305/70/18 or 285/75/18 on stock rims, any opinions on this setup as far as rubbing, thanks

If you're driving over 100 miles every day, then I'd go with a more conservative tire size. Something like a 285/55/20 or 275/60/20 will give you a better stance than stock without killing your MPG and driving manners.

I agree 100%.

Stopped by a local shop today to price a leveling kit and was told $400 + $100 for alignment. Is that the going rate? Sounds high to me.

It is either high or low depending on what you are buying and where you are getting it installed. For $500 (cdn) I can get a 2.25" Ready Lift kit installed and aligned at my dealership. I suggest shopping around as I have found a $200 price spread on basically the same work

Question: I just received these today 20x9 with 0 offset 33/12.50 tires, and I don't get my RC2.5 level kit installed until Monday. This Friday I have an appointment at the dealership to have them road force balanced, and was wondering if I could get by the weekend with having the dealer throw them on for me. Would just be a little in town driving, and currently I have 22x9 +15 offset 305/45/22 tires and don't rub. Thanks

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.

      I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!

      I haven't seen inventory recovery from COVID.    In the few random times I 'build my own' truck or SUV, no one has the exact one I want.   GM has been working to lower incentives too for a long time.    A $500 incentive isn't getting me off the couch to go truck shopping.
