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.

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?

    • Sure, but they do have some affordable options like the Trax, Trailblazer, Envista, and Encore. Some of these have a cheaper base price than the Civic, though the fuel economy isn’t as high. The main problem is that people WANT the highest trim with all the goodies and finance for like 7 years. That’s how ppl “afford” the more expensive vehicles. 
    • Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.
    • LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL
    • Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.
