I’m curious how does the factory 2” lift the rear? If it’s just a 2” block couldn’t that be replaced with a 1” block (or removed altogether) so you sit more level? i mean I feel like that would be the easiest solution instead of trying to raise the front even more

Some people have done this, but I’m guessing that would void the warranty after the GM lift

Since my motofab 1.5" touched the CV boot (LTZ, Z71, Dmax), I am going to try to do a 1" since I only have a 1 3/8" rake on one side and 1 1/2" on the other.  1/2" rake left would be good for me.  Hopefully the slight difference in spacer thickness will suffice, if not, I may clearance "notch" the lower loop on the shock mount...I am running 20x9 0 offset Hostile wheels with Nitto Duras 275/60/20...

Do you have pics of how close the CV boot is? I have a 1.5” MF kit to install but now am worried about it causing issues. Thanks

I went to have the 1.5” Motofab put on a few weeks ago and my mechanic called and told me he wouldn’t do it. I trust him and I am now going with the Eibach RHA struts. Not only will it level the truck but also improve the ride. Win win in my eyes.

It was not close, it actually touched the second "wrinkle" of the cv boot.  I watched it just barely rub along it as I turned the rotor.  Granted this was with the truck on the jack but still...I have the 1" Motofab on the way atm and will make it work regardless until I decide to go to the Fox 2.0 C/O option.  Main reason I am not already is because I think the Fox will make me nose high and then I would have to do a 1" block in the rear and I am trying to stay very mild with how high I go because I like this 25-27mpg stuff lol.

Fox 2.0’s shouldn’t add any lift. Pretty much plug and play with factory heights

What part numbers are you ordering?  I am also interested in full C/O replacement but I do not want more than 1.5" lift...

Call Fox and look up their part number released 2 weeks ago.  adds 1.5-2" lift just as the King 2.5s do...

They are 0-2”

 

Here’s their catalog. IMO id wait till mid May for the release of the 2.5’s for the 19-20 GM models.

I called and spoke to Fox already,  I have the part numbers.  I have always ran the King 2.5s in the past and have them on all 4 corners of my wife's tahoe.  Wanted to go with a little bit cheaper option this time around.

Installed the MotoFab 2.5 F&R this weekend.  Install went smooth, however now there is a bang in the right rear after you hit a large bump or speed bump.  Any ideas, Gonna pull it in after work and check bolts.

Had this same problem with the 1.5”. Got my money back and ordered up a 1”.

      2015 Sierra Denali L86 cyl 5 misfire at idle

      By Gkistler · Posted

      Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions?

      Pulsating Noise 4Cyl Mode

      By zibzer2 · Posted

      2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?.

      He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it.

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.
