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.

Has anyone bought & installed these $8   2" front leveling spacers from Amazon?

 

https://www.amazon.com/AYNEFY-Self-Leveling-Suspension-Compatible-Silverado/dp/B08B8W8FKH/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=2"+front+leveling+kit+sierra+1500&qid=1598624039&sr=8-1

 

A friend is looking to do a 2" front level on his '16 Sierra 1500 and we found the ones above as well as several on eBay for $25-35.

 

 

Any forseeable issues by going with these vs. Motofab or other brands?

 

 

My friend installed these spacers with no problems.

I just installed my 2" motofab top spacer in the front and their 2" block in the rear.

 

About 2 weeks later I hear a creaking sound when turning my wheel to the right only, forward or reverse doesn't matter.

 

Here's a pic of the lift. I like it but thinking about getting 5100's instead of the spacer, not sure how I feel about it and the ranchos ride like garbage. 13k miles on my 2017. I also never would have gotten the rear block if it wasn't for the 2" spacer making the truck loose nose high on all surfaces. When I first got the truck back I was instantly wishing I got a 1.5" spacer. Or that I just got a 2.5" spacer and the 3" rear block. LOL I'm so indecisive. The main goal was to just fit 33's or a little bigger and fill the wheel wells better. good thing is that I'm only out like 150 and did all the intall myself minus the alignment at the dealership.

2014 LTZ with stock wheels.  The after pic is with MotoFab 2" level kit,  Bilstein 5100 all the way around and Michelin Defenders 275/60 20 tires added.    I really like how it turned out.

Any rubbing issues? I am considering the moto fab 3 inch front spacer and 2 inch rear block. I want to put 33's on my truck as well.

Great forum here guys! I've started going through this topic, but there are way too many pages to read through! Haha

 

Hoping for a simple answer for my setup:

I have a 2015 Sierra 1500 All-Terrain with a MotoFab 2.5" front leveling kit installed. I'm wanting to get some Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my stock 20" wheels and wondering what larger sizes others have run successfully with this setup without any other mods or rubbing. Thanks for the help!

Somehow I missed this thread when looking.So here is the situation: I have a 2018 4.3 2WD that just hit over 60k. It appears that my struts have gone bad and need to be replaced. I figure while replacing them it would be a good time to lift/level and add bigger tires.
 
I’ve found some nice wheel/tire take offs with Nitto terra grapplers in 275/65/20. I’ve seen that people have them fit with a 2.5” Leveling kit.
 
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’ll need new UCAs going at 2.5, new struts(because mine are old), and the kit. Does anyone make a kit that has all of that, doesn’t ride horrible, and isn’t outrageous in price?
 
What would you guys do?

Has anybody installed the kryptonite stage 2 leveling kit? Part number KR13STAGE2.

Considering pairing that with new bilsteins all around.

Installed MotoFab 2” leaving kit in time 2018 Sierra 1500 crew cab a few weeks ago.  Running stock rims with 265/65/18 tires and getting slight rub at full lock.  I need new tires anyway and was thinking of 275/65/18.  Would the bigger tires make the rub worse? Is there a decent fix for the rub besides new rims?

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By dieselfan1 · Posted

      2026 3500HD.  Mostly empty. Grocery getter. What tire pressure are you running for 37x12.50x20. I have 37x12.50R20 Toyo Open  Country RT pro and been running around 55 lbs front and rear and it's too much. Tires are wearing more in the middle. Toyo says 45 front and 50 rear. Chalk test and it's still too much. I lowered it to 40 front 44 rear see what happens.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By davester · Posted

      are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
