My dealership has a lifetime guarantee on the 2015 1500 4x4 I bought. They won’t let me get a six inch lift or put 33’s on because it will void the lifetime warranty . The only lift I could do was a leveling kit! Sucks

My favorite part was that they cut the grass on the hill to show even more of a difference in clearance lmao

Would love to have seen a view from front and back of truck with the 35s on it and 33s

My 15 has 35s on 20 ×9 nu rubbing luv it

Did the lift come with a splash shield for the engine or were you able to keep the original one on there

With this lift, the front tires poke out more than the rear tires… Possibly spacers could take care of this, but I would like to take care of this with new wheels. Question is, what would be an appropriate difference in offset to end up with an approximate equal poke with front and rear tires?

How much should I expect to get a 6” lift kit instal ? I know the price may very from shop to shop but I’m asking so I can have an idea

Hi ..when u change the spindles for 3 inches bigger it need a sway bar drop kit ??

I have to agree with Marcus. I have a 2014 ( basically same wheel wells). I have a leveling kit with 33x12.5x18 wheels. I like a little fatter tire compared to stock so that’s why I went with 12.5. I have no rub at full turn. You mentioned you would like the tire to stick out of the wheel well a little. This all plays into tire offset and backspacing. Mine are 0 offset with 5 in back spacing and it sticks out about 1 in with 12.5 tires. I would also encourage you to visit Extreme customs website and view their gallery. You can put in all kinds of options and it will have people’s photos with those options.

I put the 2 1/2" RC leveling kit on an 03 Sierra, and cranked the torsion keys all the way and put 35x12.5r18 tires on factory offset rims from a 2013 chevy 1500. I had to cut a little plastic on front and back fender wells with a grinder and cutoff wheel but it worked. The back of the truck sat a little lower so I put an add-a-leaf on to level it out. One summer later the fresh front end job was toast. It is too harsh of an angle on the front end running torsion keys maxxed out. That's why they give all custom steering components on the 6" lift. I ended up running the stock 31.6" tires and rebuilding the front end. Now my truck has a rough ride with no difference in tire size, but at least the truck height is where it should be. I can't see buying 33" tires to gain .7" of ground clearance, if i did, it would be more for looks. The other thing to consider with going up in tire size is gearing.The 35's were ok running stock 3.73 gears but you definitely notice the loss of power when taking off from a start or towing. I could still get the 35's to burn rubber with the 5.3l but I am running a cold air intake and a cat delete with true dual exhaust which probably makes the 4l60e the weak link.

Homie broke his arm putting in the lift kit

How much does this setup cost?

You talked about flex a couple of times but there's nothing about this kit that would increase articulation. You need longer struts up front and probably a different set of leaf springs in the back. Simply putting 6" spacer front and rear will not increase flex at all because you still have the same limitations at play, you're just taller now.

@AmericanTrucksChevyGMC

2 жыл бұрын

Changing the gearing in the rear end will definitely help! Hard to make any specific recommendation, because it depends on what you want to accomplish, and what gear ratio your truck is currently running. Check out your truck's RPO option codes (sticker in the glovebox) and you can see what you've got now. That will give you an idea of where you need to go as far as upgrading. 3.73s or 4.10s are a popular choice for running 33 inch tires on these trucks, but again, that will depend on what you've got currently and what you want to do with the truck. It won't be a cheap upgrade, but if you want to get rid of that sluggishness you feel, especially when towing, upping that gear ratio will make a world of difference. -Jake

There is a good amount of cutting for this kit. The big thing is that a lot needs to be lowered (crossmember, sway bar, differential) so the cutting makes way for those drop brackets and relocation brackets. After cutting there is no welding, but painting is recommended to cover the bare metal to prevent rust. It's an involved process, but with the right tools it's doable. We should have a full install video out soon! - Adam

Smaller wheels like 17's won't clear the bottom of the tie rod end stud. Since a lot of the suspension positioning has changed due to the drop brackets, the stud rubs the inside of the barrel of the rim.

What was Chevy 🚬 when they designed those wheel wells? They changed that up real quick in the newer models.

33s are way too small when paired w/ a 6” lift. That size of tire belongs on a mid-size truck: Ranger or Colorado. Heck, 33s are barely larger than stock tires. I can fit 35s with no lift on my Jeep JL as a comparison. The big wheels don’t help - looks scrawny.

why do you people not understand that the "Square" wheel wells have absolutely NOTHING to do with what size tires you can put on a GM truck, the only thing thing that matters is the shortest diameter of the opening and the offset of that diameter to the center point of the hub, if anything a "Square" wheel well is actually a much bigger opening than a perfectly circular one of the same diameter
