RC 2.5” level lift


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just bought an 18 lt z71 summit white so she's stock for now. (Pulled the factory steps).  Thinking of 2" front combined with 2" Rear and/or 1.5" bl

We'll see what gives it the look I'm going for.  Wanting to keep stock 18's and maybe only go up a size or 2 eventually.  In a nutshell going for a 3/4 ton look you could say.  Want to keep factory pinion angles as this is the smoothest riding truck I'e

 Ever owned.  

That being said ur tire size and rim and the debadging just plain works.  It emphasizes the "muscle" of the truck.  May have to debadge mine.

I'very got the crew cab std box as well.

I installed 2.5” RC front level kit but I didn’t use the rear blocks. It’s level like this. Every truck is different

You've got no driveline vibration then?

My Summit White '14 K1500 Sierra Denali, photo taken near Kenai Alaska in July. Now has 7k miles, with upgrades to include the Retract Pro tonneau, Toyo Open Country II xTreme 295/55/R20's for spring/summer use (Hankook I-Pike Snow/Ice tires for winter in Alaska), a carbon fiber roof cap, Autonet onboard WiFi, de-badged other than Denali emblems.

What kind of leveling kit did you use to fit the 295s? I just bought a 2018 silverado custom, looking to level it out and add some bigger tires

“New Rack and CVT”

 

I didn’t know what a CVT was so I googled it. Seen these before just didn’t know what they were called. They sure don’t give them away do they? Hope you’ll post pics of it in action sometime would be neat to see and enjoy it.

I will. The rack a front runner slim line ii. Lets just say my tax return went away real quick this year. I love the combo and will get some good shots of it all in action once I take it out. Currently snowing here in Oregon.

Just got my truck back today after repairs to the door.

 

despise the look of winter wheels but it is what it is.

 

looking at getting the badge, b pillars, and chrome bezel done in 3m gloss black this Tuesday

14 Silverado Texas Edition. Going to purchase a tonneau top soon. I also need to get some running boards, but can’t decide on which look I want. Love everyone else’s trucks by way!!39D53C54-89C5-49B2-83E2-68695490307E.thumb.jpeg.531471cec7d11d8a65d024eba8ddee49.jpeg

I'm looking at new boards, for the summer only - we have extreme salt/sand here in the winter.

 

Some I considered were;

Gorhino rb10

gorhino rb20

gorhino d6 dominator

 

deezee NXT

 

nfab nerf (had these previously and they peeled bad)

 

linex my black gm tubular steps that are on the truck

Thanks for the ideas... I’m unsure whether to go with stainless w/ black inserts or all black running boards. Also whether to go with round or flat boards... I’ve been checking out others pictures but still indecisive.

    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
    • I had an alternator fail that was shorted internally in such a direct fashion in addition to the larger gauge cables that it appeared like a VERY dead battery. Granted I think the car did power up, it definitely wouldn't start.   Rodent damage to wiring?
    • ... I don't think he could.
    • Using experience to justify bad advice is lazy and typical of someone incapable of articulating why their advice is prudent.    This immediately sets off the BS alert and the advice that followed certainly qualified.   Asking an idiot for help getting out of dumb situations because he is an expert... at getting himself into dumb situations.   Unless I've been living in an alternate universe - the first thing everyone does when getting into a sticky situation is shift to a higher gear 🤨.   Of course not, the torque multiplication, mechanical advantage and finer control typically afforded by the lower gear is far better suited for this scenario.   There ARE scenarios where a higher gear MIGHT be appropriate determined more by the drivers ability to control EXCESSIVE wheel spin versus applying torque to the ground.
    • I'm not sure I agree with "extreme" low speed, high torque sentiment here with regards to the prescribed use of low range. How about...whenever it's needed?   A 2.72:1 transfer case and whatever differential gears these Silverados have (3.42's, maybe?) aren't producing "extremely" low crawl speeds. Or insanely high torque multiplication. Even with the 1st gear in these newer transmissions. But it does provide mechanical advantage and potentially better control at slower speeds. And with extra weight or towing, I think it adds mechanical sympathy for the truck as well.   Plus, traction control and the other assists generally turn off when you shift into low range. Those aren't needed here, they'll work against you if you need wheel spin. In high range you'll need to figure out how to turn off the various modes those assists provide. Depending on the vehicle, those things don't all automatically turn off or turn completely off.   While I agree that a farmer might have some great practical experience, a recommendation to "always" using one gear isn't very informed advice. If the farmer had said WHY and could explain the physics behind his prescriptive "always" I'd definitely listen. The way he's described here makes it sounds like he could either be uninformed or is telling everyone what worked for him, not necessarily that there could be a more advantageous way about things.
