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.

Has anyone bought & installed these $8   2" front leveling spacers from Amazon?

 

https://www.amazon.com/AYNEFY-Self-Leveling-Suspension-Compatible-Silverado/dp/B08B8W8FKH/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=2"+front+leveling+kit+sierra+1500&qid=1598624039&sr=8-1

 

A friend is looking to do a 2" front level on his '16 Sierra 1500 and we found the ones above as well as several on eBay for $25-35.

 

 

Any forseeable issues by going with these vs. Motofab or other brands?

 

 

My friend installed these spacers with no problems.

I just installed my 2" motofab top spacer in the front and their 2" block in the rear.

 

About 2 weeks later I hear a creaking sound when turning my wheel to the right only, forward or reverse doesn't matter.

 

Here's a pic of the lift. I like it but thinking about getting 5100's instead of the spacer, not sure how I feel about it and the ranchos ride like garbage. 13k miles on my 2017. I also never would have gotten the rear block if it wasn't for the 2" spacer making the truck loose nose high on all surfaces. When I first got the truck back I was instantly wishing I got a 1.5" spacer. Or that I just got a 2.5" spacer and the 3" rear block. LOL I'm so indecisive. The main goal was to just fit 33's or a little bigger and fill the wheel wells better. good thing is that I'm only out like 150 and did all the intall myself minus the alignment at the dealership.

2014 LTZ with stock wheels.  The after pic is with MotoFab 2" level kit,  Bilstein 5100 all the way around and Michelin Defenders 275/60 20 tires added.    I really like how it turned out.

Any rubbing issues? I am considering the moto fab 3 inch front spacer and 2 inch rear block. I want to put 33's on my truck as well.

Great forum here guys! I've started going through this topic, but there are way too many pages to read through! Haha

 

Hoping for a simple answer for my setup:

I have a 2015 Sierra 1500 All-Terrain with a MotoFab 2.5" front leveling kit installed. I'm wanting to get some Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my stock 20" wheels and wondering what larger sizes others have run successfully with this setup without any other mods or rubbing. Thanks for the help!

Somehow I missed this thread when looking.So here is the situation: I have a 2018 4.3 2WD that just hit over 60k. It appears that my struts have gone bad and need to be replaced. I figure while replacing them it would be a good time to lift/level and add bigger tires.
 
I’ve found some nice wheel/tire take offs with Nitto terra grapplers in 275/65/20. I’ve seen that people have them fit with a 2.5” Leveling kit.
 
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’ll need new UCAs going at 2.5, new struts(because mine are old), and the kit. Does anyone make a kit that has all of that, doesn’t ride horrible, and isn’t outrageous in price?
 
What would you guys do?

Installed MotoFab 2” leaving kit in time 2018 Sierra 1500 crew cab a few weeks ago.  Running stock rims with 265/65/18 tires and getting slight rub at full lock.  I need new tires anyway and was thinking of 275/65/18.  Would the bigger tires make the rub worse? Is there a decent fix for the rub besides new rims?

      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.
