I wonder who bought this, it was on the lot when I picked up my 4x4. It really had me interested but I am all for the off road look.0a60e5d04d4977d8d86baf933fc89294.jpg

Bad ass! Which dealer did you see this truck? Anyone know who's this is?

Awesome!!!

 

I looked on the Pro Comp website and didn't see a 2.5" level though?

Nice truck,

what offset, +18 ??

 

Looking at the Standards in that size for basically the exact same truck and setup.

Thanks guys. I took my truck to a local off road shop, and that is what they recommended, and also what they carried in stock. I looked as well, iirc they only listed 2 1/4"? It has two spacers top and bottom. Sits perfectly level. Great ride, no significant difference than the stock ride quality.

 

Yes. +18 offset. With those tires, it's the perfect setup for my purposes. No rubbing, trimming, etc... You can always go bigger, but this is perfect for daily use.

I like. Ditch that valance though pleaseeee.

Haha thanks. Yeah that, front window tint, and the chrome trim under the window are next. I might just buy the silverado stock parts to do that one though...

What's a valance? is that the air dam thing at the bottom?

 

 

Also on the procomp site they only have 2" levels as far as I can see. Could be wrong though.

Yeah I just saw that, and it shows a poly bushing as well. That's definitely not the kit I have. I'll call the shop that installed it tomorrow to ask them. The valance/air dam thing is that ugly cheap plastic thing at the bottom they spent "millions" on developing to get 1/2 mile better fuel mileage... but once the truck is lifted up, with bigger tires I have no idea if it still helps or not. I could honestly care less about it.

 

This is the kit: http://www.amazon.com/Pro-Comp-63235-2-25-Level/dp/B005GDZPD8

 

Listed for only up to 2013, but from what I understand the '14 is the same. It is 2 1/4".

I think the front bumper needs that valance. I think they look weird without them. Front end looks too small. Truck looks weird after.

    • This video may not be the exact content for the joke thread but its a lot of laughs so here it is, I've only watched a portion of it so far but if anyone is looking for some light hearted good soap box driving action, its here. As a note in the upper left of the screen it shows the number out of 100 to refer back to any particular vehicle for comment !.    https://www.facebook.com/reel/1351928276956715
    • Did have to make 1 modification because of the WeatherTech rear mud flaps and that was needing 3 longer screws than what came with the install package. 😄
    • Picked up the liners yesterday. Installed passenger side WITHOUT any modifications. All mounting holes lined up perfectly. Rain is interfering today with drivers side. Very Happy! Will add pics when finished
    • As a matter of amusement I’ll leave this conversation with this. Do you beat the government average fuel estimate? Statistics are a guide to me. Not a rule. Someone once said I have to have the last word. If true and possible may be. I’ll blame that on working in a family business.
    • That is a fair point, and I agree that trying to log “everything in the truck” would be the wrong direction.   There are a lot of modules and a lot of traffic. If the product became a full-truck datalogger, the amount of data would get huge very quickly, and most owners would never use it.   I think the first useful version would need to be narrow: - powertrain-side event evidence - selected high-value parameters - communication / voltage / reset events - pre/post event window - short report first, raw log only as backup   One distinction I should make is between active OBD/PID polling and passive bus capture. If you are polling PIDs through OBD, then yes: the more parameters you request, the lower the effective sample rate becomes, and you are adding diagnostic traffic to a vehicle that is already busy running itself. With passive CAN capture, the recorder is not asking all the modules for data. It is listening to traffic that is already on the bus. So it does not consume vehicle bus bandwidth in the same way that a scan tool polling hundreds of PIDs would. But your point still applies in a different way.   Even if passive capture does not add bus traffic, the recorder still has limits: - processing rate - storage rate - timestamp accuracy - decoder workload - event filtering - report size - user attention span   So the answer cannot be “log everything and let the user figure it out.” The product would need to store enough raw evidence to be useful, but only decode, graph, and present the important parts around the event.   A practical report should probably show: - what triggered the capture - how much pre/post data was preserved - which selected parameters changed - how those values compared to baseline - whether the same pattern happened before - whether any voltage, reset, bus-off, lost-message, or communication fault occurred - selected graphs around the event - raw data only as supporting evidence   So I agree with you. More data is not automatically better. The real product is the reduction from raw data into a useful event report.
