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.

It doesn’t matter either way if it’s rubbing honestly.

Going with the readylift 1/2" hub centric wheel spacers all around with extended thread lug nuts. My local speed shop uses the same combo on their suburban with a 6" lift on 35 x 12's and they swear by it (only used to match width of front wheels). They have been in the game over 30 years so I can trust that. And as an engineer in my work we figure atleast 7 threads to be fully enganged, which is what this will provide. See pics.. Keep in mind the spacer in the pics was one he had in the back room to show me.

I did look into the steering stop that Zone offers B1188 that would be the steering stop part number, they come in the magna-ride leveling kits. The directions tell you to weld it onto the existing one. I am a fan of that and will keep it in mind. Not sure why they don't offer it as a separate part. Cool idea though. And wonder why its only in the magna-ride kit. 277e40260153d8a1ef8e1eb867ee1e6d.jpg285b7775e31cb55c498515886a80a489.jpg07b97f40587718c3546bb6818ecaef2e.jpg91cee6b97784147bc08ad43c93d38710.jpgeb7617417d9231a1c08a06f9a7e42e91.jpg

I posted this on a pic thread but figured I'd post it here as well...

 

Here's my 2018 LT 4x4 - she has a whopping 400 miles on the odometer.  The Michelin 265/65/18's were waaaaaaay too small so I went ahead and installed a Rough Country 2" leveling kit and a set of BF Goodrich 275/70/18's.  I guess I'm old school because I love the white letters.

Yeah I know. Zone told me to go to my local shop to get them. I like the idea. I found a nice set of 0 offset wheels (SCA, they build the black widows) that I will purchase when I need tires.. I would rather use the spacers for the time being as its "keeping it stock".

Traded in an 18 Denali for this 18 SLT. Had vibration issues that they just couldn’t figure out. RC 2” level with 275 60 2 Hankook tires. Happy with the look and even happier with the ride! No more vibration! 12AB1DE2-3143-444B-A892-6E36D150E19B.thumb.jpeg.bc207896e885440ddf783c106339d2bf.jpeg

.5" spacers installed with the extended thread lugs. No more rub! Will remain this way until I buy wheels. I am pleased with the fit up of everything. Of course, can't forget the fluid film. 4ba575eab94a8c6fb63b491677647259.jpg2ed27619dab92fb197b1b295ce60b106.jpgdc6974f028d1c564b6bc68f910346916.jpg

When installing the lower strut spacer to level your truck, has anyone just unbolted the bottom bolts, compress the strut and insert the spacer?  Is that possible or do you have to go through all the steps and unbolt the linkage, ball joints ect?

      Thanks!  I figured as such; GM and other manufacturers have used standard parts and harnesses across trim levels and such for decades.  I pulled the blank accessory cover off of my commuter van (a 2016 or so Chevy 15-passenger) years ago and found the plug for a USB outlet.  It wasn't connected to anything, though (I tried swapping in an outlet from another van).  I was a GM Tech years ago (late-90s) and was pretty familiar with my 2006.  I might be wrong, but I view newer vehicles (pretty much anything made in the past 20 years) as being a lot more plug and play.  Meaning, more unused wires and plugs unless you have the Mack Daddy of vehicles.

      not all plugs will be used.  gm uses more generic harnesses that support most/all options, and if your truck doesn't have a specfiic option, the plug won't be used (commonly will have a dummy insert in the plug , or it'll be taped up, but some may just be left as is).  But it's sldo possible some p.o. has installed the wrong/cheaper parts that aren't correct for your vehicle...

      First off, I'm not trying to just get easy advice/fixes for the issues I've noticed so far.  I'll be combing through the site via searches and such, and if past experiences are any indication, should find what I need.  For the sake of conversation, though, I figured I'd post the handful of things I've noticed in the 12 hours since buying my 2010 SLE CCSB.     Indicator lights: Airbag and TPMS.  The tire pressures aren't reading for any of the wheels, so I'm pretty certain the sensors were either removed, are damaged, or are otherwise inoperable.  I used to mount and balance tires 25 years ago but am pretty much ignorant when it comes to TPMS.  My 2006 didn't have the sensors and this might be the fourth vehicle I've owned that does.     Radio: Rear speakers aren't working.  I removed the driver's side rear door panel and checked the speaker and wiring.  I also removed the sill and b-pillar covers to check the wiring.  A few minutes of Google Fu showed that this is potentially a head unit issue.    Switches: Power mirrors don't turn left/right.  I ordered replacement driver's door switches that should arrive tomorrow.  The windows and locks work but it was only about $20 for all of them.  The driver's side rear window switch lets the window down but won't put it back up.  I think the passenger rear doesn't work at all.  In the coming days/weeks, I'll break out my multimeter to check all of that.   Unknown wiring harness: There's a box attached to the front driver's side of the engine compartment, right where the second battery shelf is located.  There are three plugs, one of which looks like it fits a standard headlight-style bulb (9007 or similar).  It doesn't look like it's plugged into anything.  I'll do some digging and if I don't see anything elsewhere on the site, post some pictures here.   Unknown plugs on brake booster: There are at least two female plugs on the brake booster that aren't being used.  I think it might be a replacement/aftermarket, so maybe those are used for a different application, as there don't seem to be any unplugged harnesses and no indicator lights are on.   Little squeaks when turning: Sounds almost like a bushing around the bed of the truck.  I'll have to pay close attention as I get more familiar with the truck.   Clunk on acceleration: possibly the infamous drivetrain clunk.  My 2006 had it and I'm just not familiar enough with this truck yet to fully grasp what it is.   Anyway, my apologies for the vague and all over the place post.  This truck is new to me, and it's been four years since I drove my 2006.  With 200k miles, I know I'll need to learn this truck quickly to avoid having any major issues, despite being confident it's got much more life to it.  My 2006 had nearly 320k on it when I parked it (nearly 300k of which I put on the truck), and it was still drivable then, though I suspected the head gasket might have blown.  I'd hoped to have that truck back by now, but it's gone forever, as I detailed in my reintroduction thread.

      I always drive in Sport mode. With more driving, I am finding the initial response when accelerating is much quicker now🖕 Lou
