Saw this one at the lake yesterday. Not sure on specs but tires were 305/55/20 Mickey Thompsons on 20x10 Fuel Rampages. I'm pretty sure it had a 3.5" lift.

It's basically flush with the fenders. That is just a quick phone pic, when the weather clears up I'll take some good ones.

Btw, I just noticed your new At2's are "E" Load Range. How are you finding the ride especially compared to your old 20" wheel setup?

My stock wheels were 18s with crappy tires, which I ordered because I knew they were getting replaced.

 

the ride is different, the tires are stiffer, i run 45 psi in them, and it is almost like adding bigger front and rear sway bars, it doesn't roll over as much. it feels much more controlled. i would not say it feels uncomfortable at all. it feels better.

Just bought a new truck. 2014 V6 4.3 Dbl cab in STEALTH GRAY METALLIC. Anybody have a dbl cab in the same color with some pictures of any upgrades? (Lifts/leveling kits, wheels/tires etc...) thx in advance.

No way?! I was thinking it was 3-4". Maybe it's the angle of the photo. Do you have a body kit? Also, it may be the rims and tires also. I'm on stock wheels with 295/55/20. The first pic looks like the wheel poke out, but in the 2nd one it doesn't. Any pics showing the tires in relation to the fender by how it sticks out?

This is the only one I have right now, they only stick out a inch or 29397bcddf2708b2d60225d8ab855516a.jpg

I wonder if the lower air dam also plays a role into the look. Certainly it does. Did you have a body kit, or leveling kit only? There's less than a .5" (.43") difference in height between your tire and mine and of course that would have to be divided in 2. Looks like I'm gonna have to get some aftermarket wheels and the 305's soon.

    • are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.
    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death. 
    • In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them. 
    • I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.
