2014+ Leveling Kits

Stockredsierra · June 16, 2018

I've ran two different level kits on my 2017 Sierra so far. First I purchased the Readylift 2.25" level with tubular UCA's which I ran with 275x65r20 Ridge Grapplers on my stock wheels. No rubbing and I was very pleased with the setup. After a few months I decided to buy aftermarket wheels and tires which were the Hostile Sprockets 20x10 -19 offset with 33x12.5r20 Toyo RT's. Major rubbing with the new wheels. I bought the Motofab 2.5" top mount spacers used from my friend and had a shop install those which took a lot of the rubbing away. Still rubs in reverse at full lock..very happy with the new look. The readylift 2.25" level gave my truck a slight rake which I liked. The Motofab 2.5" level gave my truck a totally leveled look which I've grown to like more. Attached are both setups.

First picture is the Readylift 2.25" level with 275x65r20 ridge grapplers on stock tires. No rubbing. Slight rake.

Second picture is the Motofab 2.5" level with 20x10 -19 Hostile Sprockets with 33x12.5r20 Toyo RT's. Minor rubbing. Perfect level.

I leveled my '18 using Bilstein 5100 on the max setting (about 2") and my headlights were off a bit. I parked next to my brother's '16 and aimed the lights on his garage door about 20ft away. It only took like 1-1.5 turns of the adjustment screw to bring it back down.

Clockwise or counter?

I decided after reading here to go with the RC 2" and also Sumosprings in the rear on my '18 crew. Will have them in the next couple days.

Very pretty color. Mine came with 22’s, dealership owner just threw them in for me, had them removed to 20’s then I got a billet aluminum 2.25” level front 1” rear added. Threw on KO2’s then the rubbing started. Got new 20X9 Fuel wheels with a +18 and the rest is history.

Forgot to mention, the rubbing happened cause the new 16-18 have the stamped steel UCA’s and the new tires were 275/60’s not the stock 55’s. I’m glad I did cause I got sick of the stock chrome wheels really fast.
