What have you done to your K2 today?

Roidz · June 23, 2015

Fixed

What exactly did you do? I mean, it looks better and seems zoomed in further but the full picture is all here still. Just curious.

Honestly I didn't adjust size or anything pic as far as size wise goes. Just looks different since the image inside the quote is a bit smaller. Just ran it through light room and adjusted some sliders. Added a bit of exposure and contrast. Same with shadows and highlights.

Picked the truck up from the shop today - LineX bedliner, AMP steps, 6.5" zone lift, tint. I'll be swapping out the AMP leds with strips and doing true dual exhaust as a contiunuation of my resonator/flapper/muffler delete. I'm happy with the 285/65s on this setup. I think they look fine.

I don't see how yall are getting averages of 18+ mpg. Must really baby them things. Especially yall with the 6.2. Maybe it's because I tow a trailer almost daily and I run mine like it's a Corvette lol

I certainly put my foot in it on my 4.3 quite a bit, 4x4 with 3.42 gears and I get 19-20 mpg on suburban roads on summer gas, when I run winter mix in 2wd I get 17-18 and 14-16 with 4x4 high and auto engaged.

No didn't do the on board compressor (yet). Not much to show but here is one of them. The air nipple is my license plate holder now. Did them myself and am not a very technical person but figured it was worth a try and wasn't that bad. Model was 2430 and think it was about 280 from amazon. Should be able to put them to use when we leave for camping tomorrow!

The pic is not working for whatever reason. Another question I have is, do you always need to have at least 4-5 psi in them? I've always been told that with air bags you always need to have some air in them to keep them from rotting out/getting damaged, and even with that little amount of air in them they will still aversely affect ride quality. Not sure how true any of this is.

I don't tow enough to justify them, but if I ever went full leveling kit I would definitely invest in a set to keep it from going to a front end rake while loaded.

Pic should be fixed now. That was the reason I got them is because I got a level. When I moved my camper to get it ready for the weekend after the level I noticed the rear was lower than the front with the level. So airbags it was.

BTW It is correct you need a minimum of 5 psi from what a read.

Is that a 18" rim? You only stated 285/65r? But I agree that looks very good. I'm a tires don't need to stick out like training wheels kinda guy.
