Killer! What lift, tire, rim sizes? Looks like you needed to trim the front bumper quite a bit?

thanks man! 8" readylift, 22x14 wheel, 37x13.5 tire. These amp tires run wide and are stated to be 14" inflated- perfectly squared up sidewall. Some 37x13.5 run narrow and wouldve looked stretched on a 14 wide. Glad I researched it a bit and got a brand that ran wider than advertised.

bumper spacer and moderate trimming. nothing major.

It looks great. I have a CST 8" and 37/13.5/22 toyo open country MT's on a 10" wheel. I think I want to get 12" wheels to make the tires look a little wider. I'm guessing I'll still need to trim a little on the bumper.

did/do you have any bump steer? anything to correct it? i need a steering stabilizer on mine. its very noticeable. the shop said with my old 35s theres none but once the 37s and 14 wides are on, the bump steer appears immediately

Yes, it was noticeable for sure. I bought the CST steering stabilizer and that helped a lot.

Yeah, definitely let us know. Did you do the gears? I went with 5.13's and I'm glad I did.

no the stock 4.10 gears the 6.0 comes with are just fine for my needs as a non daily driver.

6.0 or diesel? I have a 6.0 and I’ve been debating 5.13 and 4.88. Mine has the 6L90 6 speed with 3.73, 7.5 rough country with 37x12.50 on 20x14. I’m going to be going to 38x13.50 ridge grapplers when I change tires. When I tow my 34ft camper (10-11k lbs) at highway speeds about 70mph, it loves to live in 4th gear. I hate driving with it long distance at higher rpm.

6.0, The gears bring it back to where it should be. I would do gears even if I had the diesel with 37 to 40 inch tires.

Yeah I’m just torn between 5.13 and 4.88. I’ve been leaning toward 4.88

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
