Good morning,


I’ve been browsing and having trouble finding examples of trucks that have setups that I plan on doing.

 

I’m thinking I will go with the Rancho quicklift loaded strut assembly (screenshot attached), or a 2” level in the front and maybe going up a tire size.


Currently running 275/60r20 and thinking going to a 275/65R20 if I can find some help with this fitment.
 

Being in Central Alberta, I plan on putting dedicated winter rated tires on the stock 2020, elevation black 20” rims. Next spring, find a nice set of chrome 20-22” rims and a MT tire for a summer setup. 
 

thanks in advance!

That's probably going to be pretty close to rubbing depending on your year. Width is the same, but your adding 1.1" in height. Rancho rides really soft. It will probably rub on the lower chin spoiler,, but you can remove it with a socket and reinstall it later if it doesn't. Might need to get a front mudflap deleted also.

Thanks for this info!

 

my truck is a 2020 gmc 1550 elevation crew cab short box with X31.

 

I haven’t seen how to remove the front chin spoiler or the mud flap delete kits! I’ll have to look them up.

Mines a 2022 refresh so they might not be the same. Chin spoiler is removed with a 8mm socket if I remember correctly. About a dozen screws hold it to the main bumper. Mud flap delete can be purchased from Rough Country or Truck Hardware.

Can you post up a pic of your truck, can’t picture the chin spoiler missing lol

Mind you, I have a 6" lift with 35-12.50-20 Toyo Open Country MT's on 20x10 wheels with -25mm offset. If you do need to trim the wheelwell liners or plastic, use a pair of tin-snips. Clean cuts and lines.

    • I'm not sure if this should be a new topic, let me know if it's out of place. This my first post. Thanks 85077522 - AC Delco GM Genuine Parts Brake Master Cylinders. Anyone else had to replace this brake master cylinder yet. I didn't do any brake work, it looks like new parts and I've had the truck for about 4k miles, 119k total miles.  When it started to throw codes I did the calibrations with a bidirectional scanner and got the codes to clear but they came back so I did the routine; base bleed, automated bleed and final base bleed. All that with Bosch ES16-32N fluid (please look it up). That seemed to fix it but 100ish miles later it failed again so I ran the same process but with a pressure bleeder this time and got the same results, fixed for 100ish miles. The original fluid looked bad and I thought I got most of it out, it could've been the wrong fluid. The codes; P25A2, C05B0-00, C2A1B. I can get them to clear but not for long. The C05B0 indicates a leak in the front circuit (which is bone dry) so I'm thinking of doing the bleed process on that front again today and I don't know if that's taboo to just do the front but at this point it seems like it's worth the try anyway. The new master cylinder/module unit is supposed to get here today. But now I'm pretty much convinced this install is over my head. I've called several shops and some mobile guys that I know but this thing is like radio active material, scary wise. I did get 2 local shops say they should be able to do it, one says he has the SPS2 programing capability. And with the battery disconnected is there supposed to be pedal resistance, mine is to the floor, then if I pump it I can get some resistance. I had a panic stop prior to this issue which may have contributed from what I read. And on the first attempt to bleed and hydraulic test the scanner listed things to look for and one was any gaps between the pad and rotors which I did notice on the RF corner and I removed the outer pad (where the gap was) cleaned it and the hardware and didn't see a gap after that but will re-check it. I read that if pushing the caliper pistons back then you're supposed to open the bleeder so as to not push fluid backwards into the abs module or it will damage it. If that's true then that's also a possibility from the previous owner having the brakes changed before I got it. I'm using an XTool ip500 scanner. Any suggestions, questions and comments welcome. 
    • Next Friday will be my 6 week point from my right knee replacement.  The surgeon says it will be fine if I choose to drive after this checkup.  I know I could drive now but best to do as my surgeon (and my wife) tell me.  Richard compared being 62 to 72.  I remember when I was in my early 60's I was experiencing slow but regular decline in my mobility.  Thanks to good medical support,  i continued to fight the speed and spread of this decline. During my 60's I worked on non-surgical methods and just when I turned 70, my orthopedic surgeon recommended joint replacements.  In a little over a year, I had one shoulder and both knees replaced.  This hasn't been a terribly fun experience, but worth the discomfort as my future mobility health trajectory has reversed.  It is a treat to now be watching my mobility. balance and confidence steadily improve!
