what steps are those?

They've been very solid. I originally added clearbra about 10" up the rocker to the first body line since I'm not running mud flaps. The boards have worked great for protection. Probably don't need the clearbra.

Thanks - no additional rear blocks. It's perfectly level without them. Here's a pic on flat surface (before installing steps) post-155890-150172678652_thumb.jpg

Is there any ride or performance or wear difference between the 2.5" level kits like Motofab that load one side of the coil vs RC which does 2" on one side and .5 on the other?

Was a member of this board several years ago then made the decision in 2013 to sell my 2008 Chevy LT Crew Cab. Kinda drifted away from the forums for a few years. I got back into the truck market right after the first of the year and signed back up in March and lurked and researched for couple months. Picked this beauty up mid June and just finished up my mods. Here she is...

 

2017 GMC Sierra SLT Premium Plus

6.2 L engine

2.5" RCX level (front & back)

20 x 9 x 1mm Fuel Maverick

295/55r20 Nitto Ridge Grappler

Great looking truck man, I think I'm gonna go the same route except getting Toyo RTs.

Any rubbing?

Thanks! Just barely rubbed at full lock at the bottom rear of the wheel well liner where it bumps out. Little bit of trimming and no more rub. I cut away just enough to remove most of that molded hump. Can't tell it's been trimmed.

    • here is the high speed control wiring, i would also be checking  and cleaning ground connections high speed fan control.pdf
    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
