Well, I took my 3/5 drop on 24's and flipped it to a 4" lift on the stock 20x9 running 305x55x20's

 

Loved my lowered ride, but it's not much good outside suburbia, and we're planning a move out of town; time to dress the part.

I liked the first pic better but both styles look good. What lowering kit did you use?

Turned in my 20' double cab Red Jewel Elevation 4x4 2.7L for a new 22' crew cab White Elevation RWD 2.7L (STORM TROOPER)

 

New truck rides WAY better than the 2020, the tires on this one are Bridgestone 20" rather than the General 20"

RWD vs. 4WD

Crew cab vs. Double cab

Mods so far: Tint, blacked out tailgate GMC emblem, White GMC front emblem and tow hooks, Lets Go Brandon(FJB) sticker.

They definitely fixed some suspension settings or issues these last couple years. I will post pics when I can figure out why it keeps uploading them all upside down?

Here's my, new to me 2020 LTZ.....already has a ton of mods, but I am going to continue its development.  Had it all of a week and already dropped a grand on mods....LOL.     Its been since 2005 since I had a Chevy (1997 Tahoe z71 2 door), but I am looking for plenty of fun with this big guy.  

 

Looking forward to learning and sharing knowledge on this forum!!

Is that satin steel metallic?  I swear that's my favorite color now!  I'm working with a dealer on an RST in the color trying to get them down on price before someone else buys it at msrp price haha!  Your truck is gorgeous!

Went to the dump and happened to get this view while there of Mt Rainier

Here’s my 21 3.0 Duramax High Country, Sally.  So far I’ve done: 2.5” front/1.5” rear Suspension Maxx level kit, Sumo Springs bump stops, S&B air intake, Chevy accessories hard tonneau cover, Sylvania LED reverse and tag light bulbs, 20% ceramic tint, and had the truck ceramic coated. Bought on July 3rd. Love her so far. Average 25 mpg on the highway at 10 over the posted limit and rides like a dream.

Hope you've replaced those stock UCA'S by now. Because if you haven't, it might cost you a lot.

Found a mural in Enterprise, AL that was begging for a shot, and then two days later I finally got my camper shell.  It's a ARE CX Evolve w/drop down front slider and key fob lock/unlock.

Checked them 10 days ago while doing my 15k service and fuel filter before our winter break trip. They’re ok, for now. But I’ve got my eye on some UCA’s.

    • Congratulations Isttype, on your gmc. Really like my 2024 2500hd sle doublecab now with 85,500 miles.  I checked the oil today at 4800 miles since last oil change and barely reading on the stick.  I don't care if GM says it's Acceptable adding a quart every 2000 miles because that is 100% BS, It is not a 1966 Harley Shovelhead! Sounds like it's setting up a future failure like I had with my 1500 6.2l. Other than oil consumption problems, I really like the 6.6l gas and 10 speed is really nice.  Towed a light 4000 pound trailer last week and averaged 14 mpg.  I was pretty impressive that a 7300 pound gas truck did 14mpg towing, Later-
    • Long Term Cold Cycle Limited Testing   Back to the 1990's and XOM's million mile test. Since then there have been others and there will be more. Schaeffer's, AMSOIL to name two. Of these Schaeffer's is the stand alone which I will explain in a bit later.    http://papers.sae.org/600190/:   http://papers.sae.org/850215/:   Up to 75% of  engine wear occurs on cold starts. These two links (above) provide the technical reasons for engine wear. In a nut shell, and by a large margin, cylinder wear is what takes out most motors and even with a pre-oiling system that part of the engine is dry enough on cold starts and cold warm up to pierce Stribeck.   So when you put a motor, or a car, on a dyno for a million miles stopping only for oil changes, (yes fuel is uninterrupted) or break down maintenance, you are depriving the test of the most important part of it's wear cycle. Yes a million is then a pretty easy walk even for a mineral oil under those conditions.    How about cleanliness during the long test cycles? Same thing. Varnishes that stick rings and insulate parts are laid down by repetitive 'heat cycles'. It's the cool down the precipitates the varnishes. These long runs also hinder acidic attack caused by cold start richness and less than optimal cold start ring sealing. They hinder water formation and enhance breathing of the crankcase; the petri dish of acid formation, the first step in sludge formation, amalgamation and precipitation. These motors are also monitored and controlled for water and oil temperatures to within the "normal operating range".      https://www.swri.org/sites/default/files/sequence-iiih-test.pdf Note the test sequence in some boutique oils literature for testing, API IIIH, is not the standard used for the ILSAC G7 testing. Does that mean it is irrelevant? No, not as used. As used as a 'visual guide' it makes it's point. The G7 weighted piston deposit minimum is lower.      Back to Schaeffer's. That was a cyclical test of an engine in fleet service and not a dyno mule and if you saw the video it was not mirror clean but wear was low.    There are oils like BioSyn and other 'Renewable" source oils that taught cleanliness and have proven themselves in fleet testing. Havoline an other example.    The newest ILSAC G-7 test prioritize cleanliness, LSPI mitigation and fuel economy OVER WEAR. In comparison Porsche C30 Specification Verses ILSAC G-7 Specification below:      Some will balk that this graph isn't apples to apples and I will challenge that in that this graph represent the SPECIFICATION and not the any One Oil Performance.   It is absolutely possible to minimize wear, maximize cleanliness and mitigate LSPI etc., It just isn't cheap and currently I see none that are not walking toward profit over performance.     
    • I don't think you will need a split, separate product, etc., the OBD port should be able to deliver everything you need. Since your device would be plugged into it all the time, it wouldn't miss anything.    Hardware in this case will be the easiest part of your project - ELM 327 devices will already deliver all the data you need. Reporting/software is where your advantage/marketability is.
    • I do too. I’ll never be stuck again 😂
    • It has happened to me a few times. I carry a jumpstart-tire inflator with me.
