Haha awesome. Even tho it has a little red on them. It definitely makes it sexy.  I want to do something to it with keeping the redline rims even tho there’re just painted red stripes lol

My thought what I want to do is match the red on the rims and do 2 stripes on the hood in the indents. I think that would add to it and still look good. Man I love this truck everything about it.

That’s why I was thinking an aggressive all weather tire and maybe a level kit or at most 4 inch lift. And I don’t want a poor man lift

Just put a rough country 2.5” level in the front only and got some new wheels/rubber. Running pro comp 34 Rockwell with 295/70/18 Terra Grappler G2’s. It turned out pretty well I think. Although, I might install the rear block sometime this week. Tires rub slightly at full lock but I’ll get around to trimming that soon.

Truck looks great... I really like the looks of the Pro-Comp 34, so much  I picked up a set today. Since my truck runs the Bilsteins I'm .75 lower than you up front so I'm going to try for a 275/70r18.  Not sure on the tire, though. Ran the Nitto TGG2 on my Cummins and they were excellent. Might just go back to them for this truck.

Thanks man! I think it turned out well. These are the first set of TGG2’s I’ve run and I do like them. I was considering a more aggressive tire but I spend 95% of my time on concrete so I didn’t want to spend money just to turn around and spend more. They’re a little big for my lift but I’ll live with the rub if I get the look I wanted.

Ride is great. Only rub is on the felt fender liner. All it will take is a simple zip tie to fix. Bout a quarter to half inch that the liner needs to be towards the frame. Only at full turn to the left in reverse does it rub

Probably 3/4 of the trucks in this thread are that set up... Or are you talking about removing the stock rear block and adding a leveling kit which is just dumb.

Hey guys. New here to the forums. This may have been discussed... I have looked through some pages and honestly cant get past looking at the pictures of all the awesome trucks builds! I have a 2014 Sierra 1500 4WD Crew Cab. I want to level the truck by lowering the rear. I don't haul anything heavy or tow. However, I have to remember Mom & Dad need to get in sometimes. :lol: I was told removing the stock blocks under the leaf springs would level it with the front. Is this true? Or, is the better option to buy the lowering shackles? Thanks in advance!

Excited to have my truck leveled soon. 2.25" Procomp and I'll put on some 285/70/17 Mickey Thompson Atz p3 to match... Two weeks until I can post some pics.

    • More is cylinder deactivation. Kia-Hyundai Ive had 4. The warranty is the same 10 years 100K miles. My grandson drives the first one 05 Elantra GT. My wife drives the second one 2011 Genesis. The Genesis still performs as new and looks great. The Elantra looks rough. He’s not kind to it. The third was a Genesis coup. The fourth was a Santa Fe. Those were my daily drivers. I don’t keep them long. Kia is the same as Hyundai with the same warranty. I looked at the K-4 today. Too small, otherwise pretty good buy. Most of Hyundai and Kia’s have a performance upgrade. 
    • Thanks for the point of reference 
    • Great question. Answer....depends. One the volume of the crankcase, the driver that will actually be using the vehicle and the amount it uses plus the distance expected for that next trip. Couple of for instances:   Wife is going to drive Dizzy to Moline and back plus a bit around town so say 500 miles on the day. I know from years with that SUV that around town and local rural it uses about a quart in 1250 miles. But on the Interstate and her at the wheel without her anchor nagging her she'll push it and it will drop a quart in about 800 miles. Hence, around town I wait to somewhere between a quarter down to a quart down. On her trip I'd top it if it was down a few ounces and hope for the best.    Have I overfilled one? You mean by adding before it needs a full quart I assume. No, not once after finding the true fill mark.  I know the dipsticks of everything I drive and add what it needs. I learn this by doing the first oil change a quart low. Run the motor for a few minutes. Let it sit over night. Check and mark. Then add half a cup at a time making note of the place on the stick. I add through the dipstick tube with a barbeque basting bottle. Give it a few minutes to drain down and check again.    A vehicle like Dizzy that uses this much oil will take a few quarts between 3K changes. I keep one in the vehicle with the bottle and a bag. (Mindful of it's fullness) Not a big deal and never makes a mess of it. There is no such thing as "multiple quarts' in my shop for any specific oil. There will be a maximum however of the number of different oils used over the fleet.     Dizzy holds a nominal 5 quarts. So the first fill was indeed over as it actually took 4.75. My vehicles are fit with Valvomax valves so I can meter an ounce on the drain if need be. Found her mark first crack at it. Never to be repeated.    Pepper uses none between changes so I don't keep a quart in that one. Straight up 6 quarts put her dead on the full line. Check it ever fuel stop. They will surprise you when they start using.    Raven holds 3 liters or 5.44 ounces over three quarts. I add 3 quarts and 6 ounces. That gives me 5 oil changes on my orphan quart.    Lawnmower holds about 3/5 of a quart. I don't over fill it to prevent an orphan. So yea, depends. 
    • 185k on original 6.2L engine and 10 speed. 6" lift with 35" tires. Changed oil (Mobil 1 synthetic) when truck told me to. Original tranny with original fluid and no service or flush done. All highway miles. A/C compressor replaced at 155k. Oil cooler line replaced at 180k. Still daily driver. Love this truck.   This is my 3rd 6.2L vehicle (2008 Yukon Denali / 2018 Cadillac Escalade) with over 150k miles and no issues. Denali had broken motor mount at 100k.
