Did you have to make any changes to the body lift for it to work? I have a 17 and called Zone Friday with a response that the 14-15 body kit won't work on the 17. But, it's the same body style as yours.

I actually had to make fewer modifications. The bumper does not have to be modified, only the bumper mounts on the truck. The only real difference was, I needed to notch the frame (where the e-brake cable passes through) more than the instructions state.

Finally got the leveling kit installed this past weekend. Looks good, should've done it sooner, a lot sooner.

Slightly off subject but i have a stock 2015 1500 LT. I want too put 22x12 inch rims on it. I was wondering if this would work and what the max tire size i could put on?

How would 295/60/20 fit on a 2016 Sierra Denali 1500 with a 2.5 RC level?

I dont know if there is any definitive answer for this, but how high can you go on a level with bilstein 5100 IF you get aftermarket UCA?

Mine are adjusted to the 2nd from highest setting, with 1.25 top spacer (netting about 2.5") and 1" higher in the rear (5100s also)

I know they say never go above 2.5 on a level or your ball joints will hate you -

---- My question is - WITH aftermarket UCAs, can i go to that top setting on the bilsteins, yielding about 3.25" in the front without having any issues? If so, is there anything else i would need to do (besides obviously an alignment)?

I had a 2" kit (front only) put on when the crap stock tires were ready for replacement. Up sized the tires to 285/55r20 Falcen AT3's. No problems rubbing at all, rides great. Wish I did this a long time ago.

Theoretically you could, but you're going to bottom out your shocks a lot quicker since they're not extended travel shocks.

Upgrade to an extended/lifted version of the 5100 and you should be fine w/ aftermarket UCAs.

Finally bit the bullet last week on tires. I ended up going with the Falken Wildpeak A/T3W's, and I will say in person they look better than expected. For the price, its hard to argue against them. They are very quiet and smooth, and the truck rides exactly like it did with the stock tires.

I went with the 305/65/18s because 285s look so tiny on these trucks. They measure 33.6x12, and somehow I dont rub at all with zero trimming and a 2" level. Here are before and after pics. I will eventually post better pictures, because these dont do it justice. It looks beefy in person.
