Wth... that's awesome. I called a shop here in OKC yesterday and they quoted me $370. Looks like I need to do some more shopping. 

i got mine done at JOPAC in midwest city for $225 last year...i think normally it is $275, but he gave me a deal, not sure...that included an alignment from sears, down the road from them.  I have been very pleased.

How much rub do you have with that tire size?

It rubs but not too bad. I️ had to trim some of the fender liner. It doesn’t affect driving off-road too bad either.

Temporarily removed toolbox. Looks great without it. Really can see the new stance. Looks like it still has a bit of rake.

Any issues with fit with the 275/65 Ridge Grapplers?  I swore I'd never go Nitto again after I blew through two sets of Terra Grapplers way too quickly on previous rides, but I keep hearing fantastic things about the RGs.

Ag96, Love that set up. Any rub? Did you do a block in the back?

 

I rubbed at full lock on the inner wheel liner.   Zip tied them back and no issues at all now. 

 

I just have the 2.5" front level with no rear block.  Still about 0.5" of rake but its not noticeable.

No issues other than the wheel liner rub mentioned above with the stock wheels.  Its pretty common once you go to 34s with a level.

 

It's my first set of Nittos and only 1500 miles on them so far.  I love the way they ride, performance in the rain, and quietness with such aggressive looking tires.  I had TOYO AT2s on my 2014 and they are just as quiet.  Curious to see how they do on mileage.

What is the exact tire size please. any rubbing? Also what do you think of the performance of the programmer and are you worried about voiding the warranty because of the programmer.

Just got a 2.5” RC leveling kit. Truck sits 39” / 39.5”. I’m getting a new set of 20” wheels and 33x12.5R20 Open Country M/Ts put on it tomorrow morning! I’ll submit another picture once it’s done.

Just put the new shoes on her! There’s a SLIGHT rub at full turn.

Offset on the wheels? -24? Looks good. Rub at all? I am about to do the rcx 2” and haven’t decided on wheels/tires.

Not sure on the offset. Just traded for these. I dont think its as much as -24. Only hear rubbing in reverse at one certain point while turning, but no rub at full turn.

Ahhh. They look to have a decent lip. I really like em. Think they are perfect. Do you have a picture looking down the side of the truck to show how much they stick outside the fenders?

    • I'd change the fluid and start there.   198F is nothing for the 8L90.  They typically operate 180-200F stock.  
    • 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.
    • 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.
