Yeah, out of a 2018 Tahoe that got converted in to a police vehicle.

Looks good.  All that’s left for me are the mirrors, should be done next couple days.  Don’t think I’ll do the front valence.

Looks good! You worried about the paint holding up on the textured pieces?

Not at all, I am aware debri can damage the pain anywhere on the truck.

Kryptonite Stage 3 Leveling kit with the Fox Shocks. Hostile 20x9 +10 offset with 35x12.5x20 Ridge Grapplers. Very slight run on front felt of wheel well, just zip tied the felt back and no rubbing issues at all.

New truck in the driveway! Took advantage of some great incentives as well as  excellent trade equity. What an incredible truck!

First post and  no longer have the truck but a 2021 is on order.Same spec but white. Very impressed with the hauling. Our boat is 37' long and 10'6" wide and with full gas  is right at 20,000 lbs. You know it is there but cruise at 115 kph with no sway. 

 

It doesn't know it has the 5th wheel dumper on. Amazing the difference a 5th wheel compared to bumper pull. Almost makes me want to get a 5th wheel boat trailer.

Been lurking for a little while...

 

Picked up my new 2020 LTZ Durmax a couple of weeks ago, but I have been waiting for the wheels to come in. Just got them installed. 

 

Wheels are MKW Offroad, 20X9 with +25 offset and 285/65x20 tires. Pics below of the SLIGHT poke. I appreciated the pictures posted of various offsets to help me choose how much offset to get, so hopefully these will help someone else.

 

In addition to the wheels/tires, I have added Rough Country step bars (I chose these because the steps drop down quite a bit...and my wife is short ? ). Also, toneau cover and bed mat. So far, liking the truck very much.

Jesse, thanks for the info and pix..    That truck looks great!!!!!   Did you wrap or paint the grill and bumpers?          Wheel and tire size look perfect....Wheel and tire size please.

Did you install level kit or just crank the keys a bit?     I really like the look of this truck,good job..

    • I've been eyeing an upgrade to my tonneau cover for a bit now.  Intrigued by the BAK MX4 EZ-Lift with the torsion spring and went for the upgrade.  Thoughts and musings during unpacking, install and a few days of usage.   Once my order went into Realtruck, it took about 4 days to ship.  Unfortunately, FedEx Ground destroyed the box and contents and it was unusable upon receipt.  To Realtruck's credit, one email with pictures and an RMA was sent to me to send the first one back, and another unit was shipped out.  It arrived 3 days later, unscathed.   I opened the box and it looked like every other BAK MX4.   Biggest differences are the rails and retaining clamps, and of course the spring attached to the cover itself.     NOTE - if you are upgrading from a MX4 to the EZ-Lift, you will have to replace the rails.  The EZ-Lift rails have a notch cut in them to allow the new style retaining clamps to fit properly.  The new retaining clamps also have 2 knobs/carriage bolts and there are two tracks underneath the front panel. The strap clips are mildly different (more like the Undercover Flex clamps) in that the screws go in from the underside.  Personally I prefer these over the BAK clamps that use the nutserts that are a nuisance to install.  The remainder of the parts in the box (drain tubes, rail clamps, and bumper pads) are standard issue BAK.     I did not replace my front bed seal at the time because it seemed to be in decent shape.   BAK recommends shims on the GM trucks unless you place the clamps on the flanges about 1/3 of the way in from both the front and rear of the bed.  I shimmed the front and the middle, and initially placed the clamps equidistant.  This also turned out to be a mistake, because when I set the cover in place, the new style retaining clamps wouldn't clear the front clamp.   New style clamp inserted in the track:     And the issue which occurred because the front rail clamp was too far forward:     Once I removed the shim from the front of the bed, and slid the clamp back to the front flange, everything cleared fine.     The cover set on the rails without issue and I installed the strap clamps.  After I completed my adjustments, I pulled the pin to activate the torsion spring.  Mistake #3 on my part.  PULL THE PIN AS THE VERY VERY VERY LAST STEP!  The reason is, once you pull the pin, the torsion spring is activated.  If you have to loosen the front clamps and adjust the cover, the front panel will - by virtue of the spring, refuse to lay down.  The only way to get it to lay down so you can reinstall and tighten the clamps is to fully open the panel against the back of the cab, which will then allow the front panel of the cover to lay down and be tightened.  Not a big deal unless you haven't installed the foam pads yet (typically the last step) because minus the foam pads, you will need to place something between the frame of the cover and the back window so it doesn't get scratched.  The next time I install one I will install the foam pads before I pull the pin and activate the spring.   After using it for a few days:   The spring assist is great.  You literally can open it with one hand.  My shoulders aren't getting any younger and this was part of my motivation to swap out. The second panel latches and unlatches itself as you open and close the cover.  Neat in concept, however it took me a minute to get used to closing the cover and not hearing the "latching" sound that would tell me it was locked in place. The paddle handles are a huge upgrade and I wouldn't be surprised to see them become the standard across the Realtruck line.  They effectively eliminate the concern that a thief could coat hanger the cover open and get to the contents in the bed. I'm not sure why the very front panel on my cover has a different finish from the other 3 panels.  I have a request into Realtruck to find out if mine was not manufactured properly or if it was by design.   All in all I'm pleased.  Same level of protection, looks good, keeps stuff mostly dry (they all leak around the tailgate) and easy to install.
