18" rims

 

tires are 35" bfg mud tires

So what size lift? Can we get a picture from the side. Would love to see a side profile with those 18's.

 

Thanks.

7.5" rough country lift

 

i haven't had a lot of time to get pics of my truck yet. got the truck in june and the lift was put in a few weeks back... then we've had unseasonably rainy weather so no photo shoots yet - hopefully this weekend.

 

here's all i have for a side view... for now :)

maybe I should add running broads to mind ?? looks good

Thanks! I may be getting rid of them at some point for something a little stronger..I had some Smittybilt rock sliders on my wrangler and I'd love to find something like that for my truck.

Oh, and I've been lurking for a while but first time poster. I traded a 15 Elevation in for this.
Mods include
Throttle booster
Tint
level kit
lund bull bar with light bar
lightbar on top
tow hook
underseat storage
debadged and painted GMC emblems
mudflaps
That's it for now but we know how that goes.
I do need a tenneau cover but I'm waiting to see what is compatible.

How do you like the bull bar ????

I like the look of it. The light that came with it is not very bright but better than nothing. The sensor relocation kit looks a little off but I'd rather have sensors than not.

What throttle booster did you go with?

sprint booster. I love the new 8 speed but the delay was killing me. there is a huge difference from the 6 speed to the 8 imo. Now the power is instant!

    • 100% agree, there are a lot of variables. I definitely do not drive I’ve like a grandpa but also don’t drive like I stole it. Truck is currently in the shop so I’ll have to get weight later. The price for driving it doesn’t bother me. My precious was a 6.2l so the cost between the two is a wash. 
    • if you want a short turning radius get a short bed Colorado!
    • that is pretty awesome MPG there!  I think so far one observation is these trucks do way better on MPG under 65mph vs 70+ and they really suffer at 75+   I noticed on the stretches into NE on 76 and 80 which is posted 75MPH and I was doing 82 I was getting more like 13.    
    • No ETA is available for that engine at the moment in the GM system.   I would start at the dealer.  Try and talk to the parts manager or service manager and see if they can start a CX Connect case and get an ETA from GM on when engines may be available.  If they just check Parts Workbench and say "no eta", they aren't trying hard enough.  They need to do a CX Connect and chat with DPAC to find the ETA.      
    • I would have to read back to get a better picture in my mind of some of the other comments and what they were using for a driving scenario they based the fuel mileage off of. That is why the fuel mileage conversation is extremely difficult to make fair comparisons from. If I was to be living in town and only driving around town, light to light and some longer stretches that doesn't have a light every block, and the usual stop at a grocery store and the bank and so on and so forth, my fuel mileage even during the summer time would be so bad with my truck I don't even want to know how bad it would be !. Then add in winter time and idling to warm it up to clear the windows and driving through snowy streets etc, large heavy trucks with gas engines have NEVER been worth crap for fuel mileage and why some little pot licker of a car with wheelbarrow tires and a 1300 cc four cylinder non turbo engine was the ticket to using a mere fraction of the fuel over a full size pickup.    By the way my truck has the 34" tires as its a HC but not the BFG KO3 tires ( that was an option for my truck but the sales guy couldn't figure out what the tires actually were so that never got on the order until it was too late to change the truck order ). So what fuel mileage your getting actually sounds good for "town driving" and with my truck when I go to town the fuel mileage keeps increasing as I get closer to town because it takes quite a while to get the driveline oils warmed up ( and why it always shows better fuel mileage on the return trip from town because its already warmed up ) but once I am in town that fuel mileage average just keeps dropping the more I mess around town and then has to recover back to something reasonable again by the time I get home for an over all average.    I'd be curious what your sticker says for the factory weight of your truck, mine is close around that 7700 lb due to the options it has. But anyway the long and short is, vehicle weight, higher rolling resistance heavy tires and a hefty driveline and a relatively large gas engine make for crap fuel mileage in stop and go scenarios, all one can do is drive it easy off the line at each stop and as my dad had said over the years, drive like a raw egg is under your foot and that's the best one can do. Years back with a carbed engine and if the carb was getting a bit out of tune etc as would the ignition system, the fuel mileage on pickups with larger engines was just awful compared to what your getting. We pay the fuel price penalty for driving HD trucks over some little vehicle, that is the reality.
