Nice looking truck you have there. One word sweet. Man it looks like a 6 inch lift not a 4 inch lift. If i were to lift a i would get a rancho lift for sure.

Thanks for the kind words guys.  

Now all I need to get is a grille and some nerf bars.  Then, when the tires tread run down, on to BIGGER ONES!   And, I need to have my gears installed (I don't know how to do that :))

Hey Kasper that truck is awesome looking. So now with the body lift thats about an 8"-9" of lift....WOW. What kind and size gears are you looking at? Also hows the front end alignment? My alignment could be better! Anyway, nice looking truck.

Enjoy.

My alignment wasn't done correctly and so I need to take it back to have it fixed.  But, it is liveable.  

As you can see in my signature, my current gears are 3.73.  I waivered over what to go to (4.10 or 4.56) and read many a thread on the topic.  I bought 4.10 gears, and have yet to install them.  HOWEVER, I am kinda thinking I may send em back and get the 4.56's...  Thougths, I need more encouragement.  I am going to get the 36" tires eventually, and I only want to pay for the labor once!!!

IMO,if you're going to go with 36's,you'd better get the 4.56 gears.

The 4.11's arent as drastic a change from the stock ratio as the 36" tires are from the stock size tires so every little bit is going to help,if that makes any sense.

Yes, go with the 4.56 gear ratio if you can. I have the 4.10 gears and just with the 33's it seemed to drag down the power. If you go to bncoffroad.com they have a tire/gear ratio calculator that is pretty neat. Here is the link www.bncoffroad.com/tire_gear_cal.html

Very nice looking truck. I would go with the 4.56 gears. Check out http://www.4lo.com/ this site will give good insight on tire size and gear ratios.

    • Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.  
    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
    • I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!
