thanks for the info! im fine minimal rubbing on the finder liner, was just worried about rubbing on the sway bar/control arms.

 

do you recommend the Bilstein 5100 shocks with the RC level? How much do they run?

I replied over on the 2014+ Leveling Kit thread to keep this one in topic. [emoji106]

Picked it up Friday.

Lookin to do a RC level, haven't decided between 2" or 2.5"....

Still deciding whether to keep blacked out or go back to chrome ????

Personally, the black grill is too much. I'd say color match everything or maybe just black out the GMC emblems.

Another thought... I've seen guys black out the emblem but keep the chrome outline on the GMC. I was thinking about trying that.

One of my favorite views. dcc55a9223d9cb291e2419b6796a9dab.jpg

How do you like your Edge programmer? I've been thinking about getting one. What kind of adjustments have you done and how was the outcome?

thanks for the feedback.... I agree the black is a bit too much but at the same time the pictures do NOT do it justice. It does look better in person but I do miss the chrome. Thank fully its just plasti dip so maybe one of these weekends ill take it back off.

Did you install the rear blocks?

Looks good

Thanks man - I love it had the same kit on my 2014 SLE - new tires coming soon can't decide on the Nitto MT or wait for the Ridge Grappler to come out in my size, I'm thinking of going with 275/65/20

My 1st real truck full size lol, I'm trying to decide between RC 2.5" or 2" level. I'm looking to run 33s and don't want any rubbing.

It does what I need it to do. It adjusted for tires and gave me a little more fuel mileage with the lift. If you're happy with can tunes then it will be perfect. But if you want to change ALL the setting like transmission, then you're out of luck. It looks way better then the Diablo imo but the Diablo has better functions. Ive had it on my truck since I bought it in 2014. No issues.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm looking to up my MPG's and reduce the throttle lag. I don't like when I step on it there is hesitation.

2inch leveling kit will allow 33" tires that's what I put on my truck and already checked there are no issues with 33" tires on a 2' RC level on 14 GM vehicles.

 

anything larger would require some trimming or raising of vehicle.

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
