2014+ Leveling Kits

[TX_AT]

Picking up a 2014 Silverado 1500 CC SB 4x4 this week. It has the stock 20s and I'm putting 275/65s toyo mts on it. Would like it to have a slight rake. 2.25" will get me there? 2.5" would be completely level right?

 

I just got the Rough Country 2.5 level (w/ rear blocks) installed yesterday still on stock 275/55/20s. Measurements from the bottom of the fender well to the ground before the install were:

 

FRONT REAR

D & P - 36 1/2" D - 39 1/2"

P - 39 3/4"

 

AFTER

 

FRONT REAR

D & P - 39" D - 40 1/2"

P - 40 3/4"

 

I might switch back to the factory 1" blocks to get it closer to level. I wanted a slight rake but 1.5" is to much for me. I'll post pics tomorrow.

I was thinking of leaving the stock rear blocks and adding the 2.25" up front in hopes of having a slight rake of 1" or less up front.

That sounds about right. Get measurements because every truck sits a bit different. My leveling kit raised the truck exactly what it said.

Yup...That should leave ya with 3/4"-1" of rake with a 2.25 level.

Hey YQ Atari yes I have shock extensions, my accessory and dealer told me I would need them. Having said that I'm not sure how to post pics but she's all done. Put 305 50 20 cooper ltz tires on oem crome rims(20"). Ride Is a little stiffer on front end but good on back end,. Towed my boat the other day 17.5 tracker and pulled like a dream with a level stance. Very happy with outcome.

I put my 2" inch the front today still has some rake but it's how I want it. Now I'll sell my blocks for the rear and half inch spacer in the front

I see you went with the MT instead of AT. What made you change your mind?

 

Looks nice. Perfect setup IMO.

Thanks. I was sold on the aggressive look of the M/T. I'm glad I went with the 34 inch tall tire over the 33's, slight rub at full lock but nothing that requires immediate trimming.

Tx AT, what do your wheel wells measure now? Completely level? Did you replace the rear blocks as well? Truck looks great.

A little over an inch from my last measurements. Still not level but i think i can get used to it. Yes, i replaced the rear blocks with the ones from the kit. I'll try to get exact numbers later. Thanks

how much do the tires stick out from the side of the wheel well? bought 33" toyo mt's, same exact truck.

Anyone running 325/60r18 (33.3"x13") tires with 18x9 wheel (+20 offset 5.75" backspace) on a front only level kit?

 

I figure it's a long shot, but anyone think that would work without rubbing?

 

Love the way those tires look, I'm sure it'd be fine height wise but 13" is a wide tire.
