Problems after lift install

drifter3 · September 12, 2017

Anyone have a pro comp K1159B 4"lift? Really need to see some pictures of installed lift. My suspension is binding. My upper control arm slants down and my lower slants up opposing one another instead of parallel. When I shift it into 4 wheel auto the front diff makes a growling noise. Worked fine before the lift??? They sent me the wrong knuckles for this lift so I thinking maybe the crossmember are wrong or wrong brackets.

2015 Silverado Z71

Thanks for your help in advance,

Would this be of any use?

I installed motofab 2.5" lift kit and I have similar issues.

1. After moving to 4wd and if I turn the steering wheel to maximum right or left, it makes growling sound and fell resistence.

2. It feels like I lost some power after the lift kit on 2wd

Anyone had this kind of issues?

1. This is normal if you are on dry pavement or have traction, this is the 4wd binding up. This should have been happening before the level.

2. Did you put on bigger tires? Bigger tires will cause the truck to feel like it has less power, you need more power to rotate the larger wheels.

I did't put bigger tyres. But I installed 2" spacer and did't do the wheel alignment yet.

At last I figured it out. After road alligment it came back to normal. I did not realize road alligment would make this much difference.

Glad to hear you got everything sorted out. The alignment can definitely cause a variety of issues, especially when you move to larger tires the truck is more sensitive to improper alignment.
