Before he installed the 1/2” spacer he would rub at about 90% turn (give or take) after the install he rubs after like 98% turning (again give or take) im just not sure if its from the uca or the sway bar. wen i see my young brother again ill check where the rubbing is coming from
Hope this helped

Thanks, I appreciate it man. I’m rubbing at full lock but I’m not confident running spacers or trimming studs

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.

Would like to level my 2018 Denali but unsure about messing with the magna ride and don’t want a harsh ride.

All you have to do is have them "re-zero" the magnaride in the pcm. You don't need the susepnsionmaxx bracket or whatever.  I installed mine and it rode like a dump truck. after the re-calibration it rode exactly the same as stock.

Thanks! 285/55r22 and get a small rub on full lock on liner only

 

That's a 34" tall tire. I have the same set up, it rubs on the fender lining (zip tie helps)  and badly on the control arms. There is no way you are not getting the same. It's so bad I am swapping out for a smaller 32.8 tire and after market wheels. It looks great but it rubs like crazy. Anything going over 33" is gonna rub on stock. It's raining now or I'd take a pic of the wear for you.   

 

It's way worse in 4 wheel drive.

It must the width of your tire as mine does not rub the control arms or anything other than the inside plastic trim on full lock. I just walked outside an looked again to make sure but ive crawled all under mine after I installed lift and tires. I read a 33X12.5X22 rubbed like crazy but a 285/55/22r is 34.3x11.2. I will take pictures this evening an post. I have lightly taken offroad and no more rub than on street

What width tire are you running? I think that is where you are having problems. The whole reason I went with the 285/55/22r was for width as I didn't want to rub anything important as this is a daily and pulls a trailer weekly

I would be afraid to go any serious off road with this set up. I have exactly what you do, 285/55r22's and there is rubbing on the control arms. I can feel it hit as I turn. especially in reverse. 

 

Same truck, same wheels, same exact tires.  suspensionmaxx leveling with all the spacers in, etc.  It's not the width, it's the height on stock wheels that cause the rubbing.

I have nitto Ridge Grapplers is only thing different but I swear I only rub the inside lip of plastic trim as ive actually gotten out and checked when I was rubbing. I went out at work and took these and turned wheel completely to left lock. The last one shows the little rub I do have circled in red. I will fix this with a knive and ziptie sooner or later

I wonder if the G2's are more bulbous than the ridge grapps which might be more square if that makes sense..i just like using the word bulbous

That could be it. maybe, it rubs the sidewall. 

 

I ended up ordering this setup.

I love the 22's but with too small a tire it doesn't look right imo. (like stock size).

      Gas Prices

      By Atlas · Posted

      I understand that. The price is what it is, though. The price is what oil costs today, where our choices have led us, where supply is, and where demand is, in the market that is. Speculation is for futures, what we think the price will be, but with incomplete information at the time the price is forecast. I know you know this, but you appear to be intent on making a secondary point here about what you think the market could or should be, if only other choices.   In 1975 it became illegal to export US Crude. I'm conflicted on what the best answer is. Free markets allow export in pursuit of profit. But there is also a lot to gain by producing and consuming our own oil here. How do you reconcile it?

      That sir is a choice. And even if it were not for all the reasons stated, this disruption has zero to do with the reality of the actual logistics and everything to do with the greed of SPECULATION. Spot price is irrelevant to reality.

      What I think you're saying is there is supply here at home, and in Venezuela, and we could ease pricing if only it were favorable to do so.   Well, yes?   But that's not the current market. Supply isn't what could someday exist, if only, it's what producers are willing to produce and sell at a certain price point.   The national price of single family homes would come way down if we'd just slap together a few million homes this summer.   RAM and GPUs would get a lot cheaper if we just set up some factories to produce a bunch more and stopped using it to build out AI data centers.

      The turn signal/multifunction switch is faulty.  I've seen a few of these go bad at work.
