Finally got my level and wheels and tires! Couldn't be happier with the results.

Motofab 2.5" front and 1" rear

17x9 -12 offset with 295/70R17 General Grabber x3's

All I did for trimming was cut out a little piece of the rear of the front wheel wells. If done clean enough, you'd never really even know if was done. No rubbing of any kind

You mean their 2"rear block? ;)

So far I really like them although I haven't put too many miles on them. For an MT they are very quiet but most brand new MT's usually are for a little while. And as far as rear blocks go, there is way too much confusion because of people using the overall height of the block instead of how much lift your new block will give you. all the lift blocks I found were labeled by how much lift they will give you ??

I want those tires in 35 but I can't find them lower than $530 Canadian not including tax or additional fees 993142b1135d512d85c93b1a95b7a69c.png

From what I've gathered, General is discontinuing that tire and it's being replaced by the X3. Tire rack just had blow out sales on that tire in all sizes and most of them are all gone so I'm assuming that's what is happening.

yeah I haven't seen those around I was thinking of getting those with my new 17s but I'll probably just stick with toyos again. I'm hoping some place will have a great Memorial Day sale on tires

Ya I did see general has a new tread pattern A/T with the red lettering.

Yeah me too they remind me of a cement truck tire. The new x3's like mine are actually MT's not AT's but IMO they are kind of right inbetween the two which is why I like them. The x3 is supposed to out perform the old Grabber in every way tho.

    • I did a search outside of this forum and came across a thread from this forum from two years ago which was amusing but one I recall now from a trusted member who had himself had to add a quart on his brand new truck to bring it up to near the level plug level. Then after accumulating 5000 or so miles on the truck he pulled the cover to drain it out and wiped out the bottom of the diff housing and put the factory cover back on and in his case it took exactly 4 quarts to bring it up to within that 4/10 of an inch below the fill/level check plug, far more than the GM spec. That is a big difference between that GM spec ( which is why the GM diffs are below the level they themselves say they should be when coming out of the factory ) vs what amounts to around 8 pints of oil.    My own truck when I first got it home from new, I had not measured how much volume mine took since I used a hand pump on a 6 gallon pail of gear oil to top it off but I had measured it by using a bent wire on the flat shop floor after the truck sat overnight and a ruler and it was exactly 1" below the bottom of the fill hole on the rear diff. That fell right into line with what others have measured from a factory filled rear diff on these HD trucks, however the GM instructions are to fill from within between 4/10" of an inch or up to the bottom of the fill/level check hole as the full range. So that is why it alarmed me when you mentioned not seeing any oil in that window although I wasn't sure if that diff cover held the exact same amount as the factory cover so can only speculate its probably very close to retain the same oil flow characteristics over the top that the ring gear provides with the factory curved cover vs some of these odd flat back diff covers ( the whole video Gale does on that about some of the goofy after market covers out there ). 
    • I agree it's ambiguous, and somewhat complicated with a shared application. For S&Gs, I just looked on Amsoil's website for a 2023 Ram 2500 with 6.4 gas. https://www.amsoil.com/lookup/auto-and-light-truck/2023/ram/2500-pickup/6-4l-8-cyl-engine-code-j-esb-j/   There's a lot of listings for Ram rear differentials, and too early in the morning to dig into the variants. But there's a big difference in fluid volume called for between them and GM applications, assuming it's the same axle assembly.    So, if GM differentials tend to be underfilled, what does everyone think about a 7 pint fill, as opposed to the 6.3 pints listed on Amsoil's website? It would somewhat conservatively split the difference between Ram and GM specs.
    • Thanks for the reply’s everyone.  I will try to find the alignment printout and post that up.  Sounds like I’ll be taking it back to have the alignment re-checked
    • ok,good to hear,  being 10 plus years old i was thinking of changing them, but ill leave them be.   thanks for the help
    • Can I ask if you are having issues with the current coils?   With all of my years around LS engines, the stock coils are the best hands down. If they aren't giving you any problems, do no change them. They can go 200-300k miles easy without a hiccup.
