Rough country 3.5 lift/level

305/55/20 Cooper discoverery

FB_IMG_1580225322536.jpg

I would love to see more pictures of this set-up.  I don't remember seeing anyone else on this forum with pictures of their RC 3.5' inch lift and I would like to do the same with 285/55r22 tires. The thought process is that it will achieve the same look and balance as GM's 2" Trail Boss lift + a 1.5" front level but at 75% of the price and the addition of coil overs.

my 6.2 max tow slt  with 3 in. superlift . lifted actually only 2.75  with  305 /55/ 20  cooper st maxxx tires  33.4 x 12.5 .  Hostile rims 20x9  +10  but needed a 5 mm spacer  to clear caliper making them basically a +5.  bracket removal and trimming of mud flap  now has no rub .

Is your truck level with the 1.5 inch lift ?  I was planning on the RC 2 inch.

Truck looks great. That’s the size I’ve been looking at but I wasn’t aware they made a ridge grappler in that size that was non-LT.  Can you post a couple close ups of the tire and tread. I’d like to see if it’s much tread depth difference.

Thanks! Here you go...let me know if you want any more...compared to LT version, you can see the tread depth is a little less, and the side wall is a little less aggressive. But they are still a nice upgrade from stock tires. They basically ride like the stock tires, and they only weigh a few pounds more than the stock tires. Only minor negative thing when compared stock tires...these tires have a little hum. My wife doesn’t notice it, but I do. Not bad though, just more than stock. Overall very pleased with them...

Dang! I mistyped in my first post! These are 275/60R20. Sorry about that! It’s the biggest non-LT ridge grappler you can get. I would have loved 275/65r20, but didn’t want to go up to LT.

Ya just a 1.5” in the front. Nothing in rear yet. Have airbags to install for towing my RV, I’m assuming it’ll bump it up 1/2-1”.

    • Length/amount of data capture will be important to consider, sifting through 5 minutes of a data log can be enormous when it is stored in milliseconds. Being able to find the 'event' let alone decipher it.   Presumably the driver would notice something and hit a button to capture the 'window' of data. That window has to be large enough for the operator to recognize the event and react accordingly.    The data has to be able to be retrieved easily.   The data has to be able to be understood. Which is the biggest challenge, dealer techs won't even know what most of it is and would likely not even look at it if an owner brought it to them. Meaning the owner, the least educated/qualified, trying to understand it.    How will the data be presented? Could specific PIDs be selected and a timelapse graph be watched? How will a specific value be noted as abnormal? Additionally, a good data logger would be able to 'learn' normal values for a specific vehicle and flag abnormalities automatically. It could in theory watch parameters degrade over time and suggest maintenance as needed. (If the MAF reading begins tapering off for a given set of other readings - MAP, throttle position, Ambient, etc.. a flag to check air filter.) With the amount of data available, a device (really the vehicle rather than an additional accessory) should be able to do more than issue a DTC. It should be able to run the full diagnostic suite automatically and present a solution rather than a code. (It's not the 90's anymore). The technology is available for the vehicle to not just say "P0087", it should know low fuel pressure, check other PIDs to narrow down the problem itself, and determine if it is a lift pump, high pressure pump, regulator, leak in the fuel line, clogged filter, etc. Even if it can't narrow it down, it should be able to guide the user to the likely problems.   This would be a major problem for dealer service departments, which are the manufacturers customers it is in their collective best interest to NOT have this available to the consumer.   Further, if the owner is going to be the primary consumer of the data, it's got to be at a consumer price point vs. dealer only specialty tool price.   This group is more 'involved' in their vehicle than general public/consumer and will have knowledge, experience, needs and desires that are quite different from the market at large.   
    • I put the prof up. If you read what I posted. You can see that housing, cars and income are in line with the era we were talking about. It’s harder in some places easier in others. Let’s agree to disagree and put this back on track, OK? We both are pretty stubborn and hard headed. But I bring receipts. If you wish I will not respond to you in the future. 
    • Lets see if I can sum up two pages of nothing useful.    You want to refute your own governments data of the "Purchasing Power" Index FOR THE ENTIRE USA and its territories replacing it with the experience of a single family and its business and label that reality?  Then pound on that for a week hoping it will find traction?    Stan, I've told you several times. I don't do irrational. There are more people in the USA than your family.    I'm pretty sure this tread is so blown up. I'll give you a few days or months if need be to post yourself silent then I'll see if I can find enough parts of the train to reassemble it. 
    • Facebook groups hate VSE, poor customer service; their responses to criticisms are pretty poor for a reputable company. I'm not a customer, haven't bought anything from them, but how they handle themselves on social media is a definite "No" for me. 
    • $10,000 for a transmission?   Pretty sure I could buy all the parts, tools, and education to rebuild it myself for a quarter of that amount.   or swap it out with a new one...
