Are those color matched, powerfold tow mirrors?

Ok guys got a question: I have a Silverado 1500 with a 2.5 Rough Country level kit. The kit has a 2" block for the rear, the lower strut spacers and I did a zone 1.5 body lift. Of course now after I've done it I want to get it completely level, would y'all just drop the back to the original 1" block or replace the front with a motofab level that's about an inch higher that what I have now. I'm worried about doing to much and adding the additional wear to the CV joints. Thanks in advance.

From those angles it does look like a slight negative camber but it also might be excessive toe out or combo of both. I'd just take it to a legit alignment shop and have them check it

Got some wheels in mind. They are 18x9.5 with a +15 offset. The manufacturer says with that slightly wider wheel fitment may be an issue.

 

Sooo does anyone run that size wheel with 33s(275/70) and a level/bilstien setup??

You should have no issues running that size wheel and tire on a leveling kit. Unless the tread is crazy aggressive and even then should only require minimum trimming or tacking back on the wheel well liner

Fuel Trophy wheels 17x8.5" -6mm offset and Tires are Falken Wildpeak AT3W 285/70R17 ( 33x11.5" ). I also installed a Rough Country 2" leveling kit. There was slight rubbing on front drivers side at full lock in revers. I used a zip tie to pull back the inside corner of the mud flap and now there is no rubbing at all.

2016 Sierra All Terrain 5 inch Bracket suspension lift from Rough Country! I have to say I absolutely love the lift the truck rides like it did the day I drove it off the showroom floor!! 295/60/20 Nitto Ridge Grappler's, wrapped around a set of Moto Metal 970 Gray with Black Lip 20x10-24!! KNN cold air makes for a perfect addition.

    • I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.     
    • Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.  
    • The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.  
    • Yes your absolutely right, I been looking at the 4 inch BDS one and it acutely states you can use the stock 20’s just not the 17’s or 18’s, I also didn’t realize that with my 275/60r20 stock wheels I’m already running 33 inch diameter wheel setup lol so I can just run my stock wheels and tires atleast to start.
    • I would expect that to be lift-kit dependent.  If the kit has interference issues w stock wheels, then the kit/manufacturer should indicate that somewhere.
