I really wanted those steps but now the boss says Santa is gonna bring Amp research steps for Christmas.

I am sure this has been answered already but just wanted to verify before I placed an order. Will a 2" lower mount front level kit (rough country) fit a 2019 gmc sierra SLE? So not factory lift like the AT4 or anything like that. 

 

Looking at ordering this for the front:

And this for the rear: ( I looked and it appears I have a block already in the rear, so could I do a 2 in block to maintain some rake?)

Would this cause any issues?

Yes, that will work for your gmc.

Awesome! Thanks for the help. I have been diving into this forum as I just got my truck Wednesday last week so still researching my options. Would there be any issues that anyone can think of going this route? Would I need strut extensions or anything for the back?

Where can I find a 1" rear block for my '19 Silverado? Motofab only has for old body style. Rough country does not have them either?

For all you DIY guys, where did you place your jack points? Pictures would help. I see the circular plates and read through the manual but its just side by side. Using a standard floor jack and research, not sure without an adapter, I can't seem to figure it out without trial and error on my new truck ?

2” ready lift front only
315/70/17 ko2
17x9.5 wheels

Any issues with the Ready lift?  I'm looking at doing the same.  Rough Country keeps getting thrown around by my installer.

None at all, that’s what my local dealer had in stock when I purchased the truck so that’s what they put on.

I had rough country on my 15 duramax with control arms and shocks all around I never had any issues with that.

I do have to say I did it for budget reasons and temporary lift, if I had everything may way I would just do a bds kit

Or some type of coil overs and control arms

Okay.. so after reading all this.. how much rake do the trucks really have?  1.5" or 2"?  Are they different between models? 

 

Thanks

2.5” on my AT4.
Which left me with a 1” rake after motofab 1.5” spacer added.

My LTZ Max trailer has 1.25" take 

My LTZ with 6.2 and trailer package has a 1.25” rake as well. I figure the 2” level will be way too high.

    • Common Sense Assembly   Your driveline is forgiving of the occasional mistake. It will even often forgive the random serious blunder. But it will not forgive a continuous bad habit.      What? Not everything needs to be a five thousand word essay.       
    • We drove about 15 minute east today to visit a friend and saw a steep increase in price in the same county. About 50 cents a gallon steepper. 
    • Sure about that? A degree wheel and a dial indicator would lower your degree of assurance in that statement. 😉    It why we have offset keys and dialable timing sprockets. Just say'n.... I've built a few and have never seen one "On the money". 
    • I will admit I haven't experimented much with pressure drops beyond the numbers I put in and part of that is that the numbers I used are fairly low and then found out it would trigger regardless at that 35 psi. Having said that I had tried before had changed the placard pressures and being that I have a 1 ton set to 80 on the placard for the rear I believe it triggered close to 60, the front I don't recall now for sure but thought maybe it could get close to 45 from that factory 60 placard pressure. So I never did figure out if it was a number of psi from placard pressure to the alarm or a percentage of the total placard number as some figured it was like a 25% drop from placard pressure would trigger it. So as to try and answer your question, I believe I set the placard pressure on the front to 47 or so and while I run the front tires at 40, they have dipped below that some if its colder and I haven't put "winter air" in yet and never once have had the front alarm go off. I would say that the answer your looking for is no, that if you set your placard pressure to 45, you have a certain amount of room to drop below that pressure before the alarm will go off.    The pressures you decide to run in your truck, that ends up being what makes sense to you based on what your carrying in your truck or if towing, then have to bump them back up to something that will carry the load in the rear and the fronts typically left at the same pressure. It all comes down to that chart I put the link to and using an accurate roadside scale to be your guide, both unloaded and then loaded to know your minimum safe pressures.    I just wish GM would allow a person to change the readings for the tire pressures to the English system of pounds as I have to look at that goofy metric reading that will never ever jive in my head and will go over and change it just to figure out what they are if need be and then change it back. 
    • That part I understand, that the dealer can do it. But I'm not understanding why updates that were available to the truck since it left the factory, or the dealership originally, would not still be available to it without dealer intervention.   I'm thinking along the lines of recalls. They stay available until they are completed, regardless of whether they are in warranty or not, or in the hands of the original owner or not. Why not updates as well, especially since some of those can be safety related also?
