I have stock 275/55/20's and the 2" rc spacer and it rides just like it did before the spacer. Perfect amount of lift for a level IMO.

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.

theres a guy in my area with the 2.5 rc kit and hes running 285/65/20 with the stock 20" wheels. looks really good. does anyone else have this setup? any rubbing issues?

 

I will be running 20x10 with 305s I'll let you know. Quite a few other people have ran the same setup with barely rub on liner.

If I have the 2 inch leveling kit on my 2wd.......

Can I stack leveling kits on it and be ok scenes it's 2wd????

I have the 2 inch on the bottom which makes it level now but.... I wanna add the 3 inch on top of the coil and the 2 inch block in the rear and clear a wider rim this should only make the truck sit 1 inch higher in the front

i installed a 2.5" leveling kit and now interested in upgrading the shocks, I spoke with a Bilstein rep and he told me that he doesn't recommend installing Bilstein 5100 with a leveling kit. He said they do not have any shock for my application. anyone heard of this?

Finally got around to getting the RC2.5 installed on my truck.

 

Waiting on the new wheels to be finished getting drilled and then will take another picture.

Same setup I've had on mine for 28k miles (since new). Couldn't stand the low riding no ground clearance truck look. Removed the front airdam (valence) and the rear splash guards. Total change in look and height appearance. What wheels you going for?

I am running 305/55R20 on stock rims and there is incredibly slight rubbing on the felt and on the control arm at full lock with a 2" level. Not enough for me to actually do anything about at this point.

 

That would mean there would be a lot more rubbing with the 12.5" width as the ones I have are more like 12"

Can u post some pics? I want the same setup but I have +18 wheels. Do u have the g2 xl? How's mileage?

Mileage has suffered a bit. I would estimate ~2MPG loss.

What is the offset on your wheels?

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      Thanks everyone for the help!   I'm going to stop into the scales one of these days and weigh my axels, for the time being, I am going to run Toyo's recommendations and also do a chalk test. I have a tire shop that's going to try their scanner to reprogram and set the the factory psi values lower, and if they can't I'm going to order a scanner and do it myself!

      Exhaust Question

      By KARNUT · Posted

      You won’t do better than stock exhaust without headers. Just put your favorite muffler on it and it will do the job.

      Exhaust Question

      By C. Hart · Posted

      I have seen different people in different places post different sizes of exhaust as stock for my 2014 Sierra L83. Some say 2.5 some say 2.75. I am considering replacing the muffler with a Dynomax Super Turbo, perhaps 17739.  I had the factory L83 5.3 replaced with another L83 5.3 from Jasper Engines. I also put new Walker Cat / Y pipe on. I would appreciate opinions suggestions about what would be a good muffler setup. My main interest is a low rumble and the best flow / fuel mileage I can get. Not interested in straight through glass packs or loud exhaust. Those days are way behind me now.  Thanks Guys.

      Cold start Miss, oil in cylinder

      By newdude · Posted

      Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB 20-NA-166 -  20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"     I'd say its the head, and its either leaking at the casting line and dripping down the intake into the cylinder, or its another spot on the casting itself at the cylinder that is getting wet.

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.
