Any rubbing with that size tire? I'm looking at doing the 2.5 RC on my stock 18's as well. Was thinking of the 275/70 18s

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.

Mine is finally done! After months of research I went with the RC 2.5" level kit front only, stock rear block. 20"x9" Fuel Nutz w/ +1 offset, 33x12.50x20 Toyo M/T tires. No rubbing, No trimming, yet a

In case anyone is looking for more data points on lifts, wheels and tires. I had a 2.5" Rough Country Level/Lift kit installed... and then installed 295/55R20 Toyo Open Country ATII Xtremes, with Fuel Maverick 20x9 Wheels in a +14. After having it done... I should have gone with the +1 offset... which would have stuck out an extra 13mm's, which is .5" inches. I would have loved to gone 305/55R20's... but I wanted to keep the Chevy mudflaps... and they would had to of come off. The 295/55R20's fit with an 1" to spare!

Let's see

At first glance that looks like a 2500. Looks good.

so to make a long story short..ive wore my eyes out reading the headlight threads already..now onto leveling it.

 

which kit is a front leveling only that isn't just reaming down the torsion bars or wont have the upper control arms hitting the frame at full extension. I have a 15 crew 2wd. sle. just like it to be level ..maybe even by removing a rear spacer?

thanks

Hey guys I am trying to go for this guys build (link below) although maybe a little less aggressive tires (ill take suggestions I want an off road look but don't want damper daily driving, because its really never gonna go off road just like the look). Also is there any difference between the 2014 1500 high country and the 2015 high country?

No torsion bars on these trucks. Cheapest option and what your probably looking for any front spacer kit, try Motofab, Rough Country etc. They are all pretty similar. Either a top or bottom spacer, some are a combination of both once you go above 2.5ish inches.

 

Next option is Bilstein 5100 leveling shocks.

 

Most expensive is Fox, King coilovers etc.

No mechanical difference for leveling, wheels etc 14 to 15 that I know of. Id just copy what you see there. As for tires those are MT(Mud Terrains) if you want less aggressive go to an AT(All Terrain). Most popular are BFG KO2, Toyo Open Country AT2 , and Nitto Terra Grappler.

thanks..spacer kits are easy enough

Removing rear block is an option as well. Think I saw a 4wd guy do that somewhere on here.

So the suggestion (from the company) is to go with 305/55/20 BFgoodrich all terrains KOs on the 20x10 -24 fuel mavericks, everywhere I've read 305s aint gonna work with a 2.5 level?

I'm looking to do this exact set up. Feel free to post more pics. Looks perfect

Not the best, but at least it's not in the driveway. I love the final product.

      2019 GMC Sierra 1500 - 8l90

      By LCH14 · Posted

      Looking for help!   2019 GMC Sierra 1500 - 5.3l 4x4 8l90 61k miles - truck is in Arizona, was over 110 outside on Monday when this whole situation transpired. Never had any major issues with transmission until this point:   Truck sat outside my construction office for approx 1 hour idling before I realized, ran around the job site wrapping some things up for the day and then left. Went to get food and sat in the drive through for approx 30 minutes idling. As soon as I pull out of the drive through and onto the main road, rear tires lock up and feels like transmission fell out of the truck. Shifted to park, shut the truck off and tried again, same thing happened. Was able to reverse into parking lot (truck slammed into reverse). Let the truck sit turned off for 10 minutes before trying again, but it continued to happen. Towed truck back to my house. Highest the trans temps reached was 198.   Friday, after work I start looking into the situation. Truck sat in my driveway untouched all week. Truck is now driving like normal, transmission doesn’t get over 185 degrees when trying to heat it up. Got up to 60 multiples times with no issues, no issues accelerating, only down shifted hard into first one time at 185 degrees. Does anyone have any insight? Never through a code or a check engine light. Truck has never been used to tow either. No transmission services at this point.

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

      By Atlas · Posted

      Atlas won.   I know better, but I did it anyway. I took a compressed air line with a chuck and rubber tip and jammed it in the open EGR port. The port was clear as far as I could see, and as far as I could poke with a flexible wire, but that doesn't mean it's not clogged.   Compressed air blew back at me along with a cloud of black. Oops. I didn't have the rubber tip seated in there all the way. Jammed it up in there some more and squeezed the chuck. PSI was set to 120. Poof! It blew back at me again. Third time...pfffffttssssssspffffffsssfffffff, face full of carbon, and then, kind of a thud..and the air stopped spraying back at me. It was now exiting the exhaust with a low shhhhhh sound as it flowed through the pipe. Something broke free. I pressurized the port again, and air flowed.   Made my day.   Long story short on this problem, it's fixed. Something was really blocking the EGR passages down low, and compressed air blew it apart. I don't recommend this as who knows what debris was sent where. But it's allowed me to move forward, mentally, and onto the next problems I need to get this little S-Blazer going down the road properly again.

      Your truck lowered, looks good. I'm happy with the stance on this. I may need the extra ground clearance given my location/situation.

      PPE Transmission Pan Install

      By GMC4Zee · Posted

      With this new pan, do you still use the same procedure to check the level? Its a deeper pan and our trucks do not have a fill tube/dipstick. So fill till fluid runs out the check plug?
