Been a while since I posted. Did a 2” Rc level and went with 17x8.5 0 offset wrapped in 285/75r17 nitto terra grappler g2s. Love this truck more and more!

Any rubbing with the 285/75? That's almost a 34x11.5 right? See most people go with the 285/70

looks good...I remember when mine was clean! haha!  

 

if you thought about blacking out your red "Z's" it is a pretty simple job with some good vinyl!

I actually did think about doing that.  Never done any vinyl, how involved is it?

Thanks man, your truck looks great.  I put a 2in front lift on mine.  You think I would be able to run 33in tires with the stock 17in rims with zero rubbing?

I was running 275/70r18 KO2's on my 2014 with 1.75" strut spacers from readylift and had 0 rubbing.  

 

275/70R18 translation is (275mm * 0.7 aspect * 2 (top & bottom) * 1 in / 25.4 mm) + 18 in for rim size.  Come out to a total of 33.16" total height.  You should be good with anything under 33.4" height and 285 width.

until i did my truck i had never done it before either...it is relatively simple, and doesn't take much time (i think all three badges took me a little over an hour)...but it does take patience...i used my wife's blow dryer( instead of a heat gun and it worked fine),  an old school box razor blade, and good quality vinyl and rubbing alcohol for cleaning prep...just youtube vinyl wrap car emblem and there are plenty of instructional vids to help you along the way...my personal advise is:

1) make sure and use a larger piece and stretch it well (don't skimp and try to cut out the perfect size). 

2) get GOOD quality vinyl, it does absolutely make a difference.

 

good luck and post some pics when you get it done!

What a difference 24 hours makes.  From an inch of mud to an inch of snow [emoji4]

5” of concrete with heating element should help with that [emoji6]

I guess you need to change your signature now.... I miss St. Pete as we moved from Pass-a-grille in 2011. I miss the weather, beach side food/drink/music and when the tourists leave. :)

How much lift or leveling do you have and what size tires. That looks great!

    • I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need
    • I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.
    • Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.  
    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
