That's actually a great idea re: the 2091-21 high country wheels. Those are good looking wheels and I think the chrome will look pretty sick to be honest. And agree on Alenzas, mine are only 22k miles in so no rush to get rid of perfectly good tires!!

I ordered them yesterday, I'll post when they are installed, probably next weekend by the time they ship and I get them put on.

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

Swapped out the trailrunner at for some ko2. Not gonna lie, once I got the ko2 was in the fence because the wranglers were a very good performing tire with a great look for a street truck. But 50 miles later, can see why all the love.

Anyone have any insight on putting on 35 x 12.5 x 20’s or 22’s on my 2020 High Country? Current set up is FOX 2.5 Coil Overs up front with Reservoirs, Icon Upper front Control Arms,  Fox 2.5’s in the rear with reservoirs with Deavers rear leaf springs and 2” blocks and Fender Delete Kit in the front and the back.  It’s basically a leveling kit that raised the front about 3” but the front was so high that I added a 2” block in the rear to achieve and actual lift of about 1” and level the front with the rear.  I don’t mind trimming what needs to be trimmed at all.  I get so many different opinions on whether or not this can be done.  Reading thru these posts seem to say that it’s totally doable.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Awesome! Can't wait to see - meanwhile my truck's driver window was smashed in....nothing taken b/c there was nothing to take, but I'm a bit sidelined right now on mods. I did just get a Corsa catback on about a week ago - sounds excellent

I would love to see pictures.  I have a similar setup for my 2021 AT4- i just haven't installed it yet.  Everything is sitting in my garage waiting for a warm weekend...  So I have the Fox 2.5s and the Icon UCAs for the front like you, but I opted for Fox 2.0s for the rear.  Honestly, the main reason I went with the 2.0s instead of the 2.5s wasn't because of price, but because I don't want to have to unbolt the bed of my truck when ever the shocks have to be serviced.  I wish Fox had rear 2.5s where the reservoir was mounted directly to the shock like the way Icon does.

You don’t have to unbolt the bed at all. You can easily route the Shock without doing that. Plenty of room.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By Z45 · Posted

      Having owned 4wd vehicle since the 1970s I find there are varying opinions on how to use 4wd, every owner is an expert in their minds.  IMO, 4LO is the appropriate gear and what I would use,  You have to feather the gas to avoid spinning tires and the lower the gear the better chance.  But like I said you will find those that think their method is best.  I live near a boat launch.  Yesterday there was a new Ford Maverick pulling out a pontoon boat almost 2x its size, they had no problems and they don't have a LO range.   True story. One winter day not long ago I was coming out of small town post office and there was a F150 4wd parked in front and was stuck foot deep snow ruts. I knew the lady so I asked her to put it in 4wd (wondering why in the middle of a 2-day snow storm she wasn't).  Her reply surprised me, "my husband" (the expert) told me not use that because it uses more gas. She finally got unstuck spinning in 2wd which likely used more gas than not.

      Your tire pressure issue may just be batteries, you can reset them using tge Ing switch (I think) and the owner's  manual. ChatGTP will b e a faster, better help than Google.

      The thinking is that starting out in a higher gear makes it easier to avoid applying excessive torque when pressing the gas pedal. In a modern 4wd truck with 4 low and a limited slip or locking rear end, I would use 4 low and try to crawl up the ramp. Sometimes if they are too slippery, you have to back up to let the boat have some bouyancy, and then accelerate briskly to get some momentum to help you pull the through the slippery parts.

      I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.

      Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.
