Anyone tried 295/65/20 on the stock trailboss wheels? I have .375 bora spacers just trying to figure if the tires will fit. Also have 1" motofab level.

Just had these 35x12.5R18 BFGoodrich KO2's put on yesterday. Trailboss with 1" level, no rubbing. They may have fit without the level, but I didn't like the rake.    The manager at the 4 whe

I’m a big fan of big tires and low/no lift.    The tiny wheel wells of my 2011 have frustrated me in this regard. Big 32’s instead of the 33’s I always had. Then again, hard to take a cut of

No spacer, just the 1.5” motofab leveling kit. No rubbing at all, even at full lock. 

I'm new to the Trail Boss ownership group, just picked my 2020 up today! I've been reading about many people using the MotoFab 1.5" leveling kit on the front. I do want to raise the front and this kit looks easy enough. Question I have is when I check out their website, it only lists a 1" lift, specific to the Trail Boss. Is everyone just using the Standard Silverado 1.5" kit?

I bought mine early on, there were no kits specifically for the Trail Boss. So yeah it’s just the standard kit. I’ve had it installed for over 10k miles, no issues.

I was just looking on the Motofab website and noticed the same thing. Has anyone here had any experience with the TB/AT4 specific 1-inch kit? I wonder if it is modified or different in any way from the other kit.

That’s correct...just go on ebay and look for silverado/sierra 1500 1.5” leveling kit.

i put the motofab 1" spacer on my trail boss last thursday. waiting for 1.5" blocks to arrive to eliminate the remaining rake. went with the 1" to minimize the gap between the cv and the shock mount. leaves about an inch of clearance when the trucks on the ground. took it up into the mountains friday on washboard service roads with frost heaves all over the place and no issues at all.

Wheels are 20x10 -18 offset in matte black finish. No spacers needed. It did require some trimming to mudguards and removal of fender liner bracket so you can pin it back but very minimal compared to other trucks

Hi all - new to the forum and have read thru this entire thread.  Picked up an AT4 last week and had 295/70r18 Terra Grappler G2s put on.  Thought they would fit fine based on previous comments, but the passenger side tire is rubbing at full lock - mostly on the splash guard.  The truck is currently stock with no level and factory 18" wheels.  

 

I am considering either living with the rub, dropping down to 275/70r18s, or adding the Motofab 1/2" leveling spacers to top and bottom of the strut.  I spoke with Motofab yesterday and they are anticipating having the 1" bottom block available again in a couple weeks, but i have a few trips lined up and wanted to address the issue sooner rather than later.  Apparently there is no issue with doing both the top and bottom .5" spacers.  I'm a bit concerned about adding the level.  Seems that the CV boots are prone to tearing - has anyone had issues when installing?  Some kits (Motofab does not in their instructions) note removing the axle nut to gain some greater articulation when installing.  Is this something anyone has done during their install?  I also noticed that there are a couple of wiring harnesses on top of the struts making the 3rd bolt hard to access.  Any pointers on this as it's not really addressed in the install instructions.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By KARNUT · Posted

      It really is comical when people don’t agree or see the reason some people prefer the older vehicles. They become condescending. All the while they may be busting their knuckles on old vehicles. I have found memories of swapping out engines in my old GM cars in a weekend without much hassle. Unlike today. One wrong move a computer will shut you down. Even on something as easy as a brake job. There’s a pretty comical YouTuber called the car wizard. A garage owner who puts it all in perspective. Another Vicegrip garage that’s shows just how tough the old stuff is.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      I was around and remember that era very well, so I'm calling b/s on that statement. If they were that bad no police department or taxi company would've bought a single one ... but they were used in both services (and fire) for DECADES. They were bulletproof and proven. Even the early 21st century ones weren't too bad! The early models were legendary.   Mine is proof, but people like atlas are blinded by agenda and refuse to believe facts right before their very eyes.   Even decades after they were built, a new generation started driving them, posting all their builds and shenanigans on Grandmarq.net and Crownvic.net. The failures would show up then, since they all were deep past 100k-150k miles by that point, and younger drivers tend to be a little aggressive, especially with vehicles than can lay a one-tire fire for as long as you hold your foot in it. They've more than proven themselves over the decades.   The only thing that'll really take them out is road salt. The bodies and sheet metal were garbage. A victim of the cheapout FoMoCo and GM have been partaking in before then, and since.   Today it's the stuff that counts - the undercarriage that rots away first!    GMs Caprice was no slouch either. Reliable as a stone ax - the opposite of what they build now.

      Let me know how your vehicles do in 10 years. You don't know ******, kid. 😂    There's a reason that Panther platform was used as police, fire, and taxi service for DECADES ... long before you were born, apparently.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      If your connector also has a big lever to get the connector on and off, you don't want to force the lever either way, as it becomes a bigger problem if you bust the lever or the mechanism it works.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      It's just useful to disconnect the battery to prevent odd shorting out when unplugging/plugging stuff together.  I also  touch the two cable ends together (after disonnecting) to drain the small amount of stored battery energy in various modules.   I believe the main system where you need to be more concerned with, so you need to do the above and then wait some time, iss when you are working on the air bag system, to prevent inadvertent firing of the air bags.   The in-cab switches are just that, plain switches, it's generally not a problem to swap them in/out.  For my '12, I'll get an error message on the dash if I power up the truck w them unplugged, but that's it (power up= turn the ignition on).   The ITBC located above the spare tire is a computer that manages the trailer brake system.  That is probably more important to have the battery disconnected.  It does have to be programmed to the truck, either before or after it's installed, for it to work.  For my '12, I had a very hard time reinstalling the main connector to it (IDK if yours is the same or not), it turned out the silicon seal was jamming up, preventing it from going on all the way.  I finally got it fully installed by lubing the seal with a bit of dielectric grease, then it slid on and latched in place easily.
