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.

I have spent 3 days reading 179 pages I think I've finally decided on a 2.5 rough country front only with stock rear block, I want to run 18" fuel maverick rims with Toyo Open Country MT and I want my tires to be wide and to stick out just a little with NO RUB what size and offset should I run? I have a few sizes in mind below

275/65/18

275/70/18

285/65/18 <<

 

Thanks in advance

2014 Silverado 4x4

I would definitely run the 285/65/18. As for offset, +1 or +14 in the 18x9 maverick would be my choice. Probably the +1 for me. Edited by Aldila

After talking with Mr Wheel Deal I was told a 12mm offset will set my wheel flush with the fenders giving the tires a little outside the fender, if you run fender flares the 0mm might be better. I went with 12mm for mine just waiting on them to get here now.

Does anyone know where the best price can be had on all 4 rancho shocks 2 x RS999901 and 2 x RS999198. Everywhere I have seen sells them separate. I thought there should be somewhere that sells all 4 at a discount.

Well I'm officially burned out from reading through most of this thread. I can't decide what leveling kit to get, Seems like they all get the job done. My question is for those that plan to keep the truck for a long time, are you worried about any long term effects on the suspension?

 

I plan on keeping my '14 Sierra 2wd for as long as I can. I'm looking for a 2in level. Which would be best kit for? Something like an RC or Pro Comp? Or replacing the shocks with Bilstein or Rancho?

Assuming you're talking about a 9" wide wheel. Some guys on here run 9" wide with +1 on the fuel mavericks and barely poke. I would consider a little more offset if you want the tire to run flush with a flare. Lots of pictures throughout this fourm!

If you stick with 2 inch or less, there shouldn't shouldn't be any effects.

I went with the 12mm so If I want it to stick out more I could add a small spacer. but if I like it more in then I wouldn't have to get new wheels.

I ran a 2 inch level on my 07 nnbs and only issues were cv boots tore. Obviously you don't have to worry about that happening. That happened at around 90xxx miles. Many have had ball joint issues in the long run, but I never did. I traded it at 111xxx miles. Heck I still had stock brakes on it. Edited by Aldila

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      New tires are on, Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT's in 235/75/15. $100 per tire, after $10 AAA discount. Plus install ($100), disposal fees, and taxes.   The new tires ride nice. Catch 22, new tires, I love it again! But I feel like I've been through the wringer with this rig, and maybe I don't need this kind of headache right now. Wait until tomorrow, I'll probably love it again and keep it another week.   Never a dull moment: Got a CEL driving to the tire shop, P0172 bank 1 too rich. Oh lordy, really? I've been enjoying an emoji-free dash for too long, apparently. I popped the hood at the shop and I think there was a vacuum leak very close to the intake. Cleared the code and put a bunch of miles on it going home, code never returned. My fix was zip-tying the line on the vacuum reserve ball because the hose won't stay seated. It's either that or the fuel pressure regulator has an issue again or an injector is leaking. See why I'm getting tired of this one?!   In the gas price thread I recorded 19mpg on the last tank in fairly mixed driving and some higher-speed highway (70). I also don't have the lower engine shield installed right now, and that would help with diverting a lot of wind underneath the truck.   Not too long ago, a green '96 4-door 4x4 came up for sale with less than 1,000 actual miles. There was a story there but it was real, and the place wanted like $25k for it. Would be fun to have a NICE example of one of these, but not too nice. The joy is driving them.   That's it for a while...family and social stuff all weekend, no time to play with my Hot Wheels in the garage for the next couple of days.

      $5.19 after Kroger discount for 87 today. Moses!   Somehow I've already put 560 miles on the Blazer with the last tank clocking 19mpg.

      Oil dipstick

      By Stu Katz · Posted

      I have a 91 GMC SIERRA 1500 4.3 liter. My dipstick broke. Can someone tell me how long is the oil dipstick. Local Part stores do not stock the oil dipstick. If someone can tell me the length. I can match up an aftermarket one. Thank you.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Assembling a Word Puzzle   A sentence in a famous sermon says:    “Happy are those conscious of their spiritual need, since the Kingdom of the heavens belongs to them".   Forget it was a sermon and forget its religious nature. Assemble the puzzle. What did he say? I'm only going to unravel the part underlined.... Keep it simple and out of the ditch. It's a word puzzle not a religious class. I'm not writing a book. Okay..   By saying that people conscious of that stated need will receive; the implication is that there are also people that are not conscious and thus deprived.   But this one sentence also says that ALL people have this need, not just the ones aware of it.   NEED will try to lead you to satisfying it. You're thirsty, you seek water. You're hungry, you seek nourishment. You're cold, you find cover. Lack of awareness is a choice. So when he says "conscious' he isn't saying simply aware but aware and active in satisfying that need.    That's allot of information for eight words. This man knew how to craft a sentence...   Give that some thought the next time you read an advertisement or a book.

      Gas fill door

      My gas fill door does not stay closed. Not sure what happened, but it works its way to about a inch open every trip. Need a fix to this. 2020 Silverado 1500.
