Wth... that's awesome. I called a shop here in OKC yesterday and they quoted me $370. Looks like I need to do some more shopping. 

i got mine done at JOPAC in midwest city for $225 last year...i think normally it is $275, but he gave me a deal, not sure...that included an alignment from sears, down the road from them.  I have been very pleased.

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.

How much rub do you have with that tire size?

It rubs but not too bad. I️ had to trim some of the fender liner. It doesn’t affect driving off-road too bad either.

Temporarily removed toolbox. Looks great without it. Really can see the new stance. Looks like it still has a bit of rake.

Any issues with fit with the 275/65 Ridge Grapplers?  I swore I'd never go Nitto again after I blew through two sets of Terra Grapplers way too quickly on previous rides, but I keep hearing fantastic things about the RGs.

Ag96, Love that set up. Any rub? Did you do a block in the back?

 

I rubbed at full lock on the inner wheel liner.   Zip tied them back and no issues at all now. 

 

I just have the 2.5" front level with no rear block.  Still about 0.5" of rake but its not noticeable.

No issues other than the wheel liner rub mentioned above with the stock wheels.  Its pretty common once you go to 34s with a level.

 

It's my first set of Nittos and only 1500 miles on them so far.  I love the way they ride, performance in the rain, and quietness with such aggressive looking tires.  I had TOYO AT2s on my 2014 and they are just as quiet.  Curious to see how they do on mileage.

What is the exact tire size please. any rubbing? Also what do you think of the performance of the programmer and are you worried about voiding the warranty because of the programmer.

Just got a 2.5” RC leveling kit. Truck sits 39” / 39.5”. I’m getting a new set of 20” wheels and 33x12.5R20 Open Country M/Ts put on it tomorrow morning! I’ll submit another picture once it’s done.

Just put the new shoes on her! There’s a SLIGHT rub at full turn.

Offset on the wheels? -24? Looks good. Rub at all? I am about to do the rcx 2” and haven’t decided on wheels/tires.

Not sure on the offset. Just traded for these. I dont think its as much as -24. Only hear rubbing in reverse at one certain point while turning, but no rub at full turn.

Ahhh. They look to have a decent lip. I really like em. Think they are perfect. Do you have a picture looking down the side of the truck to show how much they stick outside the fenders?

      Roll up bed cover experiences

      I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.

      Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.

      Multigate electrical problem

      By Another JR · Posted

      The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.

      Tire fitment

      By JakeD · Posted

      Yes your absolutely right, I been looking at the 4 inch BDS one and it acutely states you can use the stock 20’s just not the 17’s or 18’s, I also didn’t realize that with my 275/60r20 stock wheels I’m already running 33 inch diameter wheel setup lol so I can just run my stock wheels and tires atleast to start.

      I would expect that to be lift-kit dependent.  If the kit has interference issues w stock wheels, then the kit/manufacturer should indicate that somewhere.
