Handling and braking is sluggish. Looks great. But I think I would rather have stock tires. The tires were brand new and free so I don't really feel bad about having them. Gas mileage took a hit. But I wouldn't be driving a truck if I care about mileage. I have done any heavy duty towing. I bet it would shift much different.

Nice truck! I am considering the same tires/lift. Any complaints with your setup verses stock?

Thanks! No complaints whatsoever! After researching all different level lifts, I couldn't see any advantage of spending more for what is essentially a block of material. Some are made of plastic, and I didn't want to go that route. My $39 lift kit works just great, and after considering all, I think 2" is the way to go. Really love these tires too. Very agressive looks, without the harshness and noise of "mud tires". The worked awesome in the snow this winter, even though we didn't get much this year!

Do you have any rub with that size? I really want that tire but it's on national backorder according to Michelin and my local tire shop so to get it I'll have to at least go to a 275/60/20. How did you handle the speedo calibration?

Anyone running 305/50r20 on stock rims with a 2 inch lift? I only have the bilstein 5100s at full height. So really only a 1.75 inch lift.

Slight rub on the carpet liner which I left. At 70

Mph I am really going 74. I never recalibrated.

You mentioned your mileage took a hit. How are you calculating that if you didn't adjust your speedo? You're at almost a 7% increase over stock so are you just adding 7% to what your trip odometer reads? It looks like 275/60/20 is my only option locally since the stock size is on national back order. I'm waiting to see the results of my level/lift before I decide if I'm going to go bigger than stock but I'm not going over 275/60/20.

    • So you're saying toss the baby out with the bathwater? @txab posted article was her take on how AI can be used to manipulate pricing as it already does and has been rebuked by the judiciasry in housing. How AI can be and is used to maximize refinery or even Amazon operations all of which are true but because she is who she is; that makes what she says about what is true, false? Is that something akin to Pre-justice aka prejudice?    Look, I'm first in line to approach all information with caution just because we live in a world where people like to lie about someone or something with such a straight face and in such volume that it makes digging to the truth wearisome. Meaning I understand the skepticisms but if I were to toss out everything a person is for a view they hold then my pool of people to draw wisdom from would be non-existent and I'd be forced to reinvent the wheel daily. Not practical.    "Be innocent as a dove but as cautious as a serpent."    Test each word. Every good lie is part truth or no one would believe it. Find the truth in it and reject what isn't.    On this one, AI is being used to do what has been done by hand for hundreds of years already but at such speed, the point of a computer, that it is more easily monetized. This one wasn't that hard a lift.    I wrote a few formulas in a Lotus 123 program decades ago, a series of linked Macros actually, that allowed a daily inventory to be turned into a running P&L and production plan. Something that took three departments a week to assemble now took the time it takes to input the 'daily changes' in inventory. Later that was ungraded to the more powerful Excel program an and integrated with bar code scanning, inventory to supply was done once per shift. It had a huge impact on production scheduling, Seamless interruption flexibility, inventory error reduction, raw materials cost effective utilization and scrap reduction. Huge improvement in the bottom line. I spent months on that and AI could have done it in minutes. So yes, it not only can be used, they would be foolish to not try. The legality, ethics and morality are not the domain of AI. Humans need to keep a reign on it. 
    • New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.
