Looks great. Just curious.  When folks are going with 305s and aftermarket wheels, why not do a 20x10 wheel?  Wouldnt you need less backspacing then?  If seen several 305s on aftermarkets and they are all 9" wheels.

Because the 20x10 won’t fit without rubbing Or alot of trimming.  Unless you go with more lift.  Even with the 20x9 mine still rubbed.  Had to remove bracket behind mud flap for clearance.

I know the K2 guys have one of these threads so I figured we should too. Think it’d be useful for others. Post pics of your setup! Make sure to add specs of the wheels/tires, spacers, suspension, rubb

Great looking truck. Do you have a link to this kit by chance?

 

What height are you running your coilovers? If max, do you have a diff drop? Sorry for the question parade... lol super interested in this setup.

No problem on the questions. 

 

They don't show a specific c/o kit for the 19, but they have King build and tune them to match for you once ordered. 

 

Here is a link to the uppers. https://www.bajakits.com/i-31570226-19-silverado-sierra-1500-4wd-upper-arm.html?ref=category:1459192

 

I am running the full 3". I have been letting them settle before I adjust again. I am coming down about a 1/2" in the front. Although CV angles are pretty good and the truck drives great. 

 

JT at Baja Kits is awesome. Great customer service and they get back to you with any questions very quickly.

New to the board and I just replaced my wheels from the stock 20" LTZ rims to the 22" Chevy rims... I do plan on keeping both sets of tires as I heard the Bridgestone Alenza tires are terrible during the winter time.

Kept the 22" OEM wheels on my High Country and went with the Fabtech 4" lift with 285/55R22 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Used 1-1/4 Spacers and still had to trim a bit, but not too much at all..

No and none of the companies doing similar set ups seem to require it. The CVs are definitely angled but from other trucks I have seen it seem minimal.

Looks great but you had to cut with OEM 22” wheels and 285/55R22’s? I’ve got the 3” kit and same tire and wheel set up and I have very little rub, only under certain situations it rubs, not enough to even trim. Something sounds odd.

How many coats did you do? Did you tape off the tire or just spray away and peel off the over spray?

      Cold start Miss, oil in cylinder

      By newdude · Posted

      Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB 20-NA-166 -  20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"

      Cold start Miss, oil in cylinder

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.

      Good information!  I didn't know about the dementia aspect and asked for a general for my second knee. I'd heard that recovery room time is usually shorter with a general.   The anesthesiologist talked me out of it and I had the spinal.  Inconvenience and/or discomfort is a small price to pay for reduced risk!

      Navigating senior years.

      By garagerog · Posted

      This is for those over 70 years of age contemplating joint replacement surgery involving general anesthesia. Even some 55 yrs. ago when I took my pharmacology class the dangers of developing dementia in the elderly that had general anesthesia were beginning to be recognized. Over the years there has been some refinement in the cautionary warnings, avoid general anesthesia if possible if you've had close to 10 priors, especially over the age of 70 and/or a family history of dementia. I'm not including the twilight anesthesia induced by propofol often used in cytoscopies or colonscopies. Seriously think about seeing a neurologist and undergo cognitive testing before proceeding if any of those criteria apply to you. Spinal anesthesia may be an option in some cases. I'm in the above camp and although I could use a new right knee, I get fidgety according to a prior orthopedic surgeon when the bone saw spools up or maybe it was the smell of saw blade meeting bone, anyhow I may have one general anesthesia left in me which I will pocket for now and I'm choosing mind over mobility, anyway where did I leave my damn cane!
