You can use 1.25” spacers without trimming the studs if you keep the OEM wheels. The pockets in the OEM wheels are deep enough. From my measurements, a 1.25” spacer is the limit without having to trim. Not wanting to trim the studs is the reason I went with 1.25” - didn’t want to trim either. 

 Your 1.5” spacers will work fine if you keep your stock wheels and they have the pockets. Not sure if all the OEM GM wheels have them.

Usually the minimum spacer we can use is 1.75". However even that would be really close on both sets of 20" LTZ wheels I have. Even had to trim to use the stock 18" LT wheels on my 2011.
Not arguing that you didn't get lucky though. Dang , I wish that would work for me.
I didn't realize this when I ordered the spacers from Bora or I would have been done with it and gone with the 2" spacer.
Your truck looks great !!

It could be that the All Terrain wheels are different than some of the other models. I measured my studs and measured the pockets, then did a little math. I would have gone with more narrow spacers if the studs were shorter - I didn’t need to go that far out to clear the UCA’s , but now I’m glad I did. Thanks, I’m happy with how it turned out.

What have you done to yours? I have a Black ultimate.

It’s got a Gmc tonneau cover, black gmc badges, led reverse and license plate lights, in-channel rain guards, and mud flaps so far. I plan on doing a intake, dual exhaust, and possibly wheels. What are your plans for your ultimate?

Got rid of the OEM badges on the tailgate and added a "retro" sticker instead.

Did you dust it off before each photo? That is way to clean to have been down a dirt road, this is a truck that has been down a dirt road...

 

BTW, you might want to cover your license plate or someone might steal your identity and murder your family :lol:

I never understood the thought process of covering your tag. I mean, you can drive down the road and get hundreds of tags per day

Do you have a level kit on this? If so, which one? Looks amazing!

    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
