So I wanted to give it a few days for everything to settle after installing the lift and wheels. Front fenders measure right at 40" and the rears are 40.5". The tires are pretty true to spec size wise, about 32.5" tall and 11.5" wide.

 

How do you like the ride and the noise? My Nitto G2s are horrible on a wet road...have you driven on wet streets yet?

 

When you are at full lock and hold it, what kind of clearance do you have around the liner, swaybar, and UCA?

 

Thanks....and nice truck, btw!!

Love the setup, and the look of the RT's! How bad is the rubbing?

not to horribly. My tires are 33x12.5 and they slightly rub sometimes while going foward at 26 degree turns. And in reverse they rub at 33 degrees but don't rub at full turn in either direction.

Nice man. Im trying to avoid rubbing, but geez those 20x10's look great. Going from an nnbs with a 9" lift, 35s and 20x12s to a leveled 2016 is really bugging me. Really hard not to just lift this one too.....

I'm looking to purchase a set of XD Heist rims in either a 20x10 or 20x9 size with 275/65/20 or 305/55/20. My biggest question is the offset selection is very limited for those rims. I am looking to have slightly outside the fenders stance. Which offset would be best for this look?

Just as a frame of reference, my rims are 20x10 with a -19 offset. I have 305/55/20's as well, and as you can see they stick out but in my opinion just the right amount.

Look on eBay, they are all over eBay. I forget the exact name of the company but they are legit and have outstanding replicas and definitely 20's as well

I got them from a local shop but check out customoffset.com. They had the best prices I found on the Internet and free shipping. They make them in 20,22,24,26. With different offsets

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
