Here she is, Ride is better in my opinion and I’m pretty sure it’s only due to new rear shocks.

Dude, looks awesome! This is the way these trucks should come from the factory. 

SO much better.

 

tires are really gonna make it look like a TRUCK. Congrats on the new ride too, btw!

Thanks. Even my salesman said it looks like it should have from the factory, well, besides the tires.

Definitely. Looks better as far as stance, but I will agree about the tire issue. Need more sidewall.

I agree, I was looking again last night, anything at a 33,34,35" tire in 22" only comes in a load range E, I'll have more sidewall but have a worse ride, not too sure how I feel about that. Only real option is to go to 20" wheels then the options are endless.

Finding the right height taller AT tire that won't rub in a 22" may be a dilemma.

There are a few options I’ve seen guys running in 35x12.50 that would fit. And there are a few 285/55 options that may fit better (no rub). But your right. Seems like all of them are E

The problem is that on the OEM wheel I cant run wider than my current 11.93 wide tires because I can't even get my finger between the tire and the upper control arm, it's so close it's not even funny.

Well I can confirm that the 285/55R22  Nitto Terra Grappler G2's fit with no rubbing with the Rough Country 3" lift. I'll post pictures once I clean it up but it looks a lot better now with the larger tire.

How's the ride with that lift? Any big change from stock? 

In my opinion it rides better than stock, the only reason could be the better shocks in the rear, otherwise it’s all stock suspension. It has a little more body roll but that’s to be expected. I’m very happy and I have 1” of clearance to get in to my garage so life is good.

      2026 DENALI 6.2L

      By pyoung62 · Posted

      I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.

      Can you add a 360° Cameras hard button to a 2021 Sierra?

      By ShowMeShooter1332 · Posted

      I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments

      Oil Consumption

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
