Nice truck but not my deal. I'm not a huge fan when they are lifted super high or with wheels like that.

Then why would you have a truck then?

 

^This, I am guessing because he thinks it looks cool and drives up his alpha status in suburbia?

Didn't know you needed to haul and tow daily to own a truck.........

Is your truck 4x4? Do you use it EVERY day?

Or I just like them and occasionally use the bed...tools like yourself intrigue me lol

 

I fail to see why people buy trucks and try to make them as ugly as humanly possible with "grandpa" mods but plenty of people do.

Alright put the new shoes on. Here's my description:

 

275 60 r20 Falken Wildpeak at3w's with Off-road Monster M14 wheels 20x10 -12 // 3inch block in front and rear. No rubbing at all. Tires have a tiny bit of noise. Nothing compared to mud tires. These are great tires. Deep tread and even snow rated. [emoji1303]

 

Shout out to my wife for "allowing me" to buy them. [emoji23][emoji23]

 

Got all from eBay for $1350. $800 for wheels and $550 for tires. No taxes and free shipping. eBay still has the tires for $100 off. Get em while they're hot! Go Mountaineers!

Here is my 2014 Silverado High Country that I picked up a few months ago. I am not into lowered trucks with big wheels but I just could not pass up the deal I got on this. My friend is the used car sales manager at Planet Ford in Spring, Tx and they got this truck on trade in and couldn't sell it at the dealership because it had too many mods and no catalytic converters so he gave it to me for wholesale!

 

The truck is "UNDER CONSTRUCTION".

I will be raising it back to stock height with a leveling kit or maybe a 3.5in- 4in lift

Adding the 22in OEM Ck158 wheels (if I can ever find a set) LET ME KNOW IF YOU CAN!

Adding a muffler to it because it currently has long tube headers with a small resonator. SUPER LOUD but going to sound nice when I tame it.

 

The front end is also a 2500 conversion. Haven't even taken the Duramax badges off yet.

 

 

 

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK! Remember this isn't my style but it does look pretty awesome as it stands.

Very clean looking truck! Looks like a lowered truck done right. Is it 4x4 or 2wd?

me either I prefer them lower than higher. And the wheels either they're to loud. Nothing worst than having a loud hum on a long trip.

can you post a sound clip by chance of how it currently sounds?

    • Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge. 
    • There are no stickers in your glovebox?
    • Look at the numbers on the stickers in the door jam...
    • Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.
    • After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
