Awesome!  Thanks for passing along the picture.  What’s the noise level like on the tires??

The noise sort of surprised me. It’s not that they are loud, it’s just more noise than the original tire. I should have expected that going to a more aggressive tire. But my wife did not even notice a difference...I’m just a little OCD. But I still really like them. They are smooth and comfy riding like the original tire which was my main priority right now.

Looking into reverse leveling my AT4.  I'm hoping someone could tell me if the stock u bolt has enough thread to simply remove the factory block with no other modifications. Because- free level right?

 

Bonus question- if I'm only lowering(or if I was raising) the straight axle, would I need an alignment like lifting/lowering an independent suspension? Because- literally free level.

 

Thanks!

Personally I wouldn’t reuse U bolts. There’s plenty of stories of fails and reasons why not to. Just buy the factory new ones that are on the standard Silverados

Are you running the RC? What’s your wheel setup?

Thought i had photos with a load but mine squats pretty easily. Eventually would like to solve this because i do tow or haul a decent amount. But also really like the level look when empty.  But even in this photo an empty trailer even though it is a fairly heavy trailer it brings the back down quite a bit. Sorry not the best photo

Does anyone have pics of your leveled truck while towing a trailer? I'm curious to see the "weight/squat ratio"...

This is trailer empty 4,500 lbs - 900 lbs tongue weight - 2.5" of squat - added load level hitch (1400 lb bars) and with it I got back about 1.5" of the squat - so only about 1" of squat with load level.  Will likely add a Deaver overload spring pack soon as well to help carry the load. Fully loaded will be 9,500 lbs +/-  but tongue weight will not go up much and may go down a bit with moving the car around.

2020 AT4, Readylift 2” SST with only the front lift. Rear sits .75-1 inch higher as is. I don’t think I got 2” from the lift. I was at 38.5” from ground to the line where the plastic black fender folds in, centered on the hub. After, with stock wheels/tires, I was at 40”. Now with 33’s, I’m at 40.5”. Wish I had measured from the center of the hub. Anyone have any measurements on a non At4 stock?

2019 AT4 - 6.2 Carbon Pro

Before and after photos below - similar measurements to you - I have OEM painted strips where yours are rubber - but about the same specs.    Ready Lift SST - I was 38 before and 40" after up front and back 40" before and 41" after with new rear block added.

I believe so.  Model 501066. I used the  3.5" lift N3 struts with my AT4 lift to get a 1.5" level.

Are you still happy with the set up? I have RL 1.75 and hate the sloppy ranchos. I was thinking of taking out the RL and replacing it with the this. Just to confirm all you have is the new strut/spring assembly from RC, no other spacers.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      My brother has a 2007 Avalanche with afm 5.3. It`s got 176,000 miles. Runs like a clock. Never been apart. Co worker has a 2010 Tahoe with afm 5.3. 230,000 miles. Never been apart. Runs like a clock. So, even though cyl deac is a weak spot, they can go the distance.   BUT, these engines had the oil changed regularly, AND had 5w30 as spec. I wonder if they would have lasted this far on 0w20? I`ll bet not.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I certainly could be wrong but I hear of pickups far newer than that 2007 cutoff which may not be going to the wrecker but are having engine work done and be that a reman engine or new engine or trying to repair the existing engine. Some of it would be design issues as per the cylinder deactivation system that GM has and one of those lifters wiping out the cam and the question of oil changes moving the needle or not on that whole mess, or in the case of Ford pickup engines that have the long timing chains and wearing them out and the roller followers and phasers and some of that certainly goes back to oil change intervals. But in those various cases the truck has all sorts of life left in it and so the unfortunate owner and may be original owner or used market owner that is pouring money into repairs so the truck is not seeing the salvage yard yet but damage is happening by infrequent oil changes. A friends son had bought a 2018 I think it is half ton GM and it had some sort of extended or used dealer warranty on it and of course the lifter issue bites and its rattling and so the dealer had to swallow the bill and was at least 7000.00 and I think they only replaced what they felt they had to replace so yeah, I can see that being a ticking time bomb in the not too distant future. Would frequent oil changes cure all these engineering "marvels", probably not but some engine designs have shown that they do much better if the oil is changed a lot more often then if the manufacturer service claims are followed. New trucks cost so much that there is an incentive to keep the existing truck on the road by repairing.

      Tranmission stays in Low

      get a good code reader, and find out what problems the truck has noticed by reading codes. cheap ones can only get basic engine codes, you may want to get one that can get codes from all the computers in your truck.

      This is sort of my point, salvage yards aren't overflowing with all these 'poorly' maintained trucks - excellent/good/servicable condition otherwise, salvaged only as a result of a bad engine from poor oil change regiment.    In my area, there are no 2007 to newer gm trucks/suvs in any salvage yards. A few are in the 'recyclers' with very obvious reasons for being there - wrecked.

      Stabilitrak conversion to Z71

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Stabilitrack was a stability control, traction control system, that functioned independently from the transfer case.   Z-71 has nothing to do with the transfer case or differential.   If it does have an AWD system, my memory recalls this being specific to the Denali trim, converting won't be as simple as swapping out mechanical parts like differentials and transfer cases. It will require reprogramming at a minimum. Long story short, not likely worth it.   Pulling a fuse, may disable the AWD system, it might also prevent any other transfer case functions.   However, the AWD case was generally based on the same transfer case you refer to in the 2006 Suburban. If it still has a 4-High and 4-Low where the transfer case locks and splits power 50-50 front to rear, what are you gaining by changing anything? A true-rear wheel drive only, what good will that serve? Not enough to go through the trouble of changing out all the parts.    Generally, all the factory systems will handle a 33" tire and re-gearing. Probably a 35" tire too, if you aren't driving like a caveman. If 35" tires are in the plan...   If you do plan on driving like a caveman or are fully committed to 35" tires, an entire re-think of the build is probably in order. Starting with square one, an IFS front end isn't going to be the best starting point for 35's and caveman driving.
