You didn’t have to add any spacers to the wheels? Ride quality? I’m just checking before I install on my Denali

No spacers. Ride is great. It will be a little firmer due to d rated 10 ply tires

Bravo!   IMO best looking truck ever posted on this forum (and there are some sweet trucks on here) like that red one above.  But those stocker 20 chrome spider webs win!   It looks like a stock truck on steroids...just the way I like them.  No debadging, dechroming, expensive rims, or other nonsensical "mods"...just height and big rubber.  Well done...I'm jelly!

I second that... tssssssss badass rig!! I have a 2018 summit white z71, same wheels and Im getting ideas.. looks like I found my style.

6" BDS lift with Fox DSC coilovers and 2.0 Rear shocks, BDS add-a-leaf.  35x12.5 Toyo MT rubber on factory 20x10 snowflakes.  1.5" Bora spacers in rear to even out with the front stance.  No rubbing whatsoever and rides better than stock even before the Fox DSC Low Speed / High Speed adjustments are made!

I’m in the process of installing my 6 inch Fabtech Gen 2 kit. Glad to see others using the factory wheels with no issues as that is my plan. Good looking truck! Doing it yourself can be a challenge but when it’s done I can say I did it! Hard to find a trans jack to rent!!!

Nice rig! What size lift? Any issues with abs or stabilatrac?

Just finished installing the 6 inch Fabtech Gen 2 kit on my 2015 Denali. Stock wheels are staying 35’s in the near future. Abs & stabilatrac & Park assist has issues I’m working on. Any advice? Alignment was checked but I don’t think they rest the system as I have read in this forum

    • Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge. 
    • There are no stickers in your glovebox?
    • Look at the numbers on the stickers in the door jam...
    • Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.
    • After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
