Do you have any before pics of your truck? Looking at a 1.5" motofab as well.

In case anyone is looking for more data points on lifts, wheels and tires. I had a 2.5" Rough Country Level/Lift kit installed... and then installed 295/55R20 Toyo Open Country ATII Xtremes, with Fuel Maverick 20x9 Wheels in a +14. After having it done... I should have gone with the +1 offset... which would have stuck out an extra 13mm's, which is .5" inches. I would have loved to gone 305/55R20's... but I wanted to keep the Chevy mudflaps... and they would had to of come off. The 295/55R20's fit with an 1" to spare!

I just put a 2.5" front level on mine w 305 55 20. They rub slightly at full lock. I'm 1" high in the front so thinking of putting on a rear 1-3/4" block and remove the 1".

RC 2.5" with block. Amps and Tires coming soon

Good looking truck. What size tires? I have a 2.5" level on the front and stock block in the back. Measuring from the ground to the center of the fender, I'm 1" high in the front. So my thought is by adding the 1-3/4" block in the rear, it will put me close to dead level. How does your truck measure out with the rear block?

What don't you like about it? It looks level to me like all the other trucks that put 2" or less in the front. If you add .5 up front, it might look front-high. I didn't like mine with the 2.5 in the front so I added the taller rear blocks the same day. I don't mind a little rake, but I can't stand a low looking 4x4.

It still has some front end rake going on, it's temporary until I do a complete suspension lift. Just wanted to know if it was safe and wouldn't put a strain on the ucas

I have same issue. I went 2" level and still have rake. These truck need 2.5" IMO, to fulfill my desired look. I HATE rake! It seems most everyone on this site prefers rake. If that was my thinking, I wouldn't bother adding any leveling device.

Anyone have a clue how these guys are fitting 35s with just a level? I'd hope a dealership isn't selling something that rubs like crazy. I sent a note via eBay asking about rubbing and got an instant response saying if I was interested in buying I could call and ask.

Sure is pretty.

Listing has tire specs as 325/50/20 which would only be a 32.8" tire not 35".

Not sure where you saw that listed. Under "Aftermarket Options" they have them listed as 325/50/r22 which would be 34.8 " x 12.8". In other listings they've also mentioned that if the buyer prefers 20 inch rims, they'll come equipped with 35x12.50s.

 

Regardless, I am in love with these trucks.

No under aftermarket options it lists 325/50/22 and they even posted a pic of the tire showing the size...this does calculate out to a 34.8 tire though.

It's 325/50r22 it says it and also the picture of the tire shows it. Also anyone can fit these under their truck but enjoy all the rubbing it will cause.

    • Hi all - my current truck is a 2022.5 1500 High Country 3.0. I bought the truck used last year. After doing some digging, I noticed that my truck's software is stuck on the original build from 2022. I have no available software updates. I talked to my dealer about this and they recommended not trying to force an update since the 36,000 mile warranty is expired. This is a big bummer since there have been many major releases since that have fixed small issues and improved speed/usability.   For reference, the current software build number is: full_gminfo37_gb-user 10 W158E-W164.4.2-QIH22B-563.3 158 release-keys Has anyone had a similar experience? Should I just forget about it and move on, or try a different dealer?
    • Sure. Buy it for me 🤣
    • Using zip ties but 2-3 they snap due to sharp edges. Just using a shoestring. Last longer. 🤣
    • I ordered the Snap On...waiting for it to come in later this week or early next week.   New front cover, new crank seal and new balancer are on. Water pump, pulley, fan, hoses, and plastics reinstalled. I can move forward knowing all my timing marks are dead on and the front engine is hopefully sealed better than it was. Take 2 with the water pump...trying high temp thread sealer on the lower bolts.   Rebuilt injector and new-new regulator is in, it looks like new. Top intake reassembled and all the bits are reconnected and snugged down.   Thinking about knock sensors again, I located both of mine and, there's your problem, Francis... The driver's side one is broke, plastic is bashed in, part of the wire is bare, and it appears to have been damaged like that for a long time. I saw the wire but didn't think anything of it. The knock sensor might not be my pulled timing issue, but it sure looks suspect. It must still be conducting, otherwise I'd expect a CEL. But perhaps with its sacred crystal inside exposed, jilted and dirty, maybe it's sending mixed signals. So I'm waiting for one of those and a new pigtail to come in. Pass side sensor looks good, except for the spark plug wire resting on it (!). The plug wires are healthy so it shouldn't be causing an issue, but I separated them and added zip ties to nearby looms to keep everything well apart.   So, I'm down to installing a knock sensor AND, oh, replacing the exhaust and cat. I actually think that's going to be fairly easy, it's all bolt-together, all new stuff from Walker is laid out on the shop floor ready to go. Hopefully have this thing on the road again for the weekend.   My luck? It will still be leaking oil, coolant, pulled timing, intermittent CEL for running rich, or it probably won't run at all -- because that's how this project has gone.   I've never worked on a vehicle so ...hurt? ...cursed? in my life. Everything has been effed with SO HARD, but I think...knock on wood...I've managed to undo all the backyard stuff and we're almost reset back to "just" an 80k mile, 30 year old Blazer.
    • Yes. You need to check out that thing, and the hub further.
