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.

Well guys I finally pulled the trigger and went with the RC 2.5" for my truck. I have a 2014 6.2 High Country in Tungsten metallic. I looked through all the posts and didn't see any high country's leveled with the stock wheels. I was a little worried about the look with the stock tires but I love it. The truck will get some bfg KO2's when they come out with the size I want, but for now stockers will do. The truck seems to ride just a tad bit stiffer than stock and when I say a tad that is with me really looking for a ride difference. Wound up with 3/4 of an inch higher in the rear and it sits perfectly level with the Ranger behind the truck. All in all I was definitely pleased. Did the work myself and had it done in just over 3 hours and was quite simple to do. Hopefully now there will be some pictures of a leveled tungsten metallic high country for someone else to see if they have the same truck and have plans to do the same thing. Sorry the truck is on an incline in the driveway.

I like the stance. If you get the chance post some pics on level ground, I want to do something with mine. I have the same truck except White Diamond and a short box.

That's good to know Husker, thanks.

Does anyone know if I could run 295/70r17 tires on a 17x8.5" wheel with 0mm offset? I have a 2" level. A guy on GMFS is running that with a slightly different offset and says he does not rub. I just find it hard to believe.

Thanks for the help.

Wondering the same thing myself. Hoping to push it with 295/70 17 or 285/75 17. Haven't been able to find anyone with that set up. Dealership said they put together several with 285/70 17 with level kit and no rub. I may go that route if I can't find anything on the larger sizes.

Well after some help from the kind folks here and some research I took the leap for a ReadyLift 2.25 for my 2014 Silverado 2wt standard cab . Have a appointment next week for the install at my local Chevy dealer and I'm pretty excited and can't wait . I must say I'm a little nervous since I love the way it rides now although ReadyLift guarantees no change in ride quality also my local dealer said it will not void or change my warranty. Anyone running this kit with a similar truck as mine that's running this ReadyLift 2.25 on there truck that could give me some input and pictures would be great . I scanned threw every page on this thread and haven't seen one but might of missed it .

Also was curious if those with 2 to 2 1/2 inch leveler kits feel the need or had to adjust there head lights down for better visibility and to not blind on coming traffic ?

I don't have the Readylift kit but anytime that you make adjustments to your suspension or ride height your headlights will need to adjusted. If you leave them as they are then they will be in every other driver's eyes.

That's what I figured , guess I'll have to find a nice flat area and a wall . Anyone know the distance you should adjust them at and what height ?

Will do. I have the day off tomorrow so I'll try to get a few and post them up. May have the boat behind it though, depends on how cold it is in the morning and if the rain holds off.

      5 Best Slide Down Gameplay Tips! 

      By lanaderay · Posted

      Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!

      Why I Recommend a Desiccant Air Dryer for Cleaner, Drier Compressed Air

      By lingyuair · Posted

      If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w

      I took a 12 second video on my iphone but the file is too big to upload. I will have to figure out how to extract the audio or just do another start with an audio recording.
