Awesome review and answers IceMan. Thank you.

Too funny about the height difference before and after. VERY odd. [emoji848]

Still torn between Nitto TG, RG or WildPeaks. I’ll do some more price checking tomorrow.

Lastly, you chose the BDS level over others; such as the famous Rough Country. Why and what did it run you?

No problem at all! Glad to pass along info whenever I can.

To answer your last question; the short of I️t is peace of mind....

BDS offers a warranty that in my opinion isn’t beat or even matched by any other company in the industry. For the originally purchaser, BDS offers a lifetime warranty on their parts and a matched(supplemental) power train warranty for 5yrs/60,000 miles for the trucks factory parts. In other words if you break something on your truck and GM says I️t broke because the BDS kit was installed, even if you know they’re lying through their teeth; BDS will step in and cover the cost.

Coming from the modified Subaru scene I can tell you all about how the Magnuson Moss Act SHOULD work and how I️t typically DOES work...... so having an after company that will back factory parts is a huge value added for me.

The level kit was $138 in parts and with install and alignment it was $396. A little steep in my opinion for a level kit but part of the way they get you is the warranty is only good with authorized professional install. Would have loved to have done the install myself and saved the coin but such is life...

The break down was:
$138 parts
$155 install
$70 alignment
$33 NYS sales tax

Has any one tired RUFFINO RENEGADE II? 3f7f0330046039694122f2f4db072d47.jpg

I'm thinking about moving down rim size, and the tire place I go to is having a sale on rims and tires this rim being one of them.

Great looking truck. Does this set-up rub or require any trimming of the wheel well liner? I plan to drop down to 17 inch method wheels and wrap them with 285/70 Ridge Grapplers. And I’m leaning toward a 1.5 inch ready-lift front level. How much room do you have with the 2 inch level?

I mean the rims look straight. I have the same tires on my truck except 305/55/20. Had them for probably 800 miles now. They seem good to me. I ordered mine through custom offsets

Lots of guys at work have them, I just want them to make my insurance go down a little with the snow rating. So for those tires and rims it's $1350 no tpms best deal I could find.

2" level gave me plenty of room. No rubbing at any point, forward or reverse.

Thanks for the reply. Hopefully I can stay clear with the 1.5 inch level.

Just purchased this truck. Currently on 265/65/18 Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac. I was thinking also of downsizing to 17, to look a bit more aggressive with 285/70 with maybe BFG TA KO2. leveling 1.5 or 2. Definitely don't want any rubbing or trimming. What you guys think?

Did you mean  285/65r18 as those look bigger than 265/65?   And Duratracs are much more aggressive than KO2s.

285/65r18 and 285/70r17 aren't big enough size difference to be worth buying new 17" rims...both are going to fit fine with a 1.5 or 2" level.
