I've seen one with 35's. Problem is, they don't give very good specs as far as if trimming was required and what wheel offsets are on the truck. I'll dig up the picture of it.

 

 

Here's the one I saw. But, don't know any specs on it unfortunately.

This is my plan.. offset may set me back thou...

 

 

2" level (2.5 inch actually only lifts about 1.5" from what i read) Stock 20's with a 305 55 R20. Right now it has 275 55 r20

 

 

I may have to use wheel spacers to move it outward away from the sway bar

You'd be the first I've seen post specs what it takes to accomplish this. So, if you do it, please help us timid ones out :help: so we know we've got it right the first time.

 

I believe the stock Rims are 18+ offset... I want the so cal look (Front little taller then the back) I am thinking the 1.5" wheel spacers will be needed. I will try without first

 

 

Trying to source a 3.5 inch level

 

 

I know they have them for my 07 so they are out there

I went with a 2" level because I had heard some stories/rumors that a 2.5" can mess something up with electrical or something along those lines. How true it is - I do not know. The 2" looks level to me, getting some new tires put on today, I'll post some new pics later today. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

Where did you hear about this?

 

Have the 2.5" on mine now for two months and have had no problems at all.

 

That's good to know. Maybe I'll keep an eye on things and go up that .5". Although I don't know if it will really make that big of a difference. Keep us updated - like I said it was most likely stories/rumor, but not something I wanted to risk. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

 

I have had my 2.5 for just under 6 months and have put over 10,000 miles on it in that time. No problems what so ever.

I am actually going to call the tire place tomorrow and see if they will take them back and order me the same tires but for a 20" wheel. Think it might look a little better - I they will do it. Doubtful.

CCM 3" leveling kit, i bought it off of ebay $80.00. i also have air bags in the rear. i tow a 18' trailer.

I just got a 2in BDS Leveling kit installed at dealer. That is what they recommend because I tow trailers with my truck. Looks great and level. The ride of the truck has changed. It is a lot stiffer almost like a 2500 HD. I also upgraded rims from 18s to 20s.May have a bit to do with ride?

    • Average Assembly 4.8%   That's the likelihood of a light duty vehicle reaching 250,000 miles. Link below has the stats on this. Among pickups the 350 series (Dodge)  and higher (450 Ford) are most likely and nothing American built in the lighter trucks pegs a number higher than the overall average.  200K and up is the stomping grounds of Asian vehicles. Toyota Sequoia the leader at 39.1% probability.      https://www.autoweek.com/news/a68886903/vehicles-most-likely-to-last-over-250000-miles/   Likelihood drops dramatically at 100,000 miles of reaching even 150,000 miles. 250,000 is deep in the tail of the curve.    I've been told by the 'experts' that I don't need oils of the caliber I use. My high viscosity is damaging my motors. Ash content it to high and WILL foul plugs and kill cats and O2's. I don't need that much ZDP; my choice is over added and not cutting edge. I change it to often. I baby them to much.    Three Honda's reached 200K + and none used oil. All Red Line motors. All sold to friends or family. One Toyota reached 300K using oil, Pennzoil. Dizzy 300K using QSUD until it cashed the rings at 80K then whatever but often ever since. Did you know this engine still sports the OEM timing chain and is dead silent? Pepper spitting into the wind short of 200K, Red Line and changed often. Uses zero oil. A HPFP and a pinion seal. Still using most parts it left Fort Wayne with. So 50% of my vehicles have gone past 250K and 100% of the last half dozen past 200K. Of these two using "shelf oils' did so using abnormal oil and the four that used a premium boutique oil did not. There might be something there the experts have missed. 🤔                
    • i dont know where you been reading...they make a top notch product..people say lots of great things about them..yes it can be difficult to get a hold of them when you need help sometimes put when  you do it is great service...   as for the actual question at hand i have the ccv mod and i vented to atmos in my case...I got my ccv from somewhere else but i have plenty of VSE product...for starters i use their tuning on my 22 duramax
    • It's not that it sits for extended periods. I drive it every couple of weeks. However, I did consider draining the DEF and replacing it.    Don't you get a "Poor quality DEF warning" if its bad?
    • Try draining the def and relacing with new if it has been sitting for a long time. Def does go bad after a little while.
    • Thanks @Viktorrocks15 if you are still out there.   I followed your instructions and worked out great, went to the scrap yard and procured 2016 escalade cluster, hud, bezel, and switch. Got lucky and found a Camaro in the u-pull with the HUD bezel.   I made my own harness with these diagrams: https://www.gmupfitter.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/23_Escalade_Escalade_ESV_Electrical_Body_Builder_SM_en_US_2022OCT25.pdf   I used escalade cluster because its the best one that will work IMO. Still need to get it programmed but it looks really good.
