Anybody with Terra Grapplers having an issue with flat spotting overnight? My tires ride like they're square for the first few miles every morning and creates a hopping in the rear until they warm up. They even seem to flat spot when parking for even a few hours. Only started when the temp dropped some (I'm in Florida so the temp went from 75 to mid 50's overnight).

 

If any of you have had a similar experience or have some insight it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Do you think wheel and tire setup would have fit without the body lift? If not how difficult is the body lift to install? I want something very similar dimension wise

My 20x9 Rockstar II's with -12 offset came in today! Tires (295/55R20 Toyo Open Country M/T) will be here next week.

 

Once I get the RC 2.5" kit installed, along with the wheels and tires, I'll be selling my factory/oem SEY CK156's wheels & tires (18,000 miles on 'em) so if anyone's looking to upgrade, shoot me an offer via PM! They probably won't be available for sale officially until after Christmas, but I figure I'd let people know my plans.

 

I don't take a lot of pics of my truck, so here's what I've got...

I don't think so. I have that same wheel and 33x12.50x20 Toyo RT's with a 2.25 ready lift leveling kit and It was manageable to drive around town but it did rub pretty good. There would be no way to make a u turn unless you did some major trimming. I went with the Fabtech 4" kit and it solved all my problems.

 

First 2 pics are with just the leveling kit and the 3rd is with the 4" kit

How did you like the ready lift level, other than the rubbing?

The ready lift level is great in my opinion. It made the truck sit pretty level with no added block in the rear.

Good! I'm about to have that level installed next week

I need some help. I have a '14 SLT 5.3 with 3.42 gears and 2.5 level. My question is, I have stock 275/55/20 tires that weigh 39 lbs. I want to put on 285/55/20 Terra grapplers that weigh 58 lbs. That is 19 lbs more per corner but I'm leaving the diameter the same. How much rear wheel HP will I lose to the ground and how much will the weight effect MPG as well.
