2019 Lift Kit realease?

[Sierra Dan]

here is a Silverado LTZ with the RC Level.

Nearly a 34" Tire on just a level. I think the tires stick out too far. Would look better with flares IMO

And here is the new Rough Country 6" Lift for the 2019 T1

Photos of the Fabtech 6" kit. Still no info on the release date.

So imagine a more aggressive tire and actually 20 or 22" rims instead of these 18's..... IMO it would look WAAAAY better. However instead of a GMC I wish fabtech did a Silverado so I can see what it looks like.

 

I am like a kid on Christmas eve though, all these posts about these companies getting close is making me super pumped. I absolutely can not wait to see the 2019 Silverado with a 6" lift on it!

Give me some Love! I work for likes and thanks. Click on the heart! LOL

Found it on Youtube.

Yes it looks great. Sorry, but the 2019 Sierra looks ridiculous with a lift due to the angular wheel openings.

This Silverado is Sweet!

The front support/lowering bracket for the lower A-arms looks very sleek and factory like. I cannot tell the tire size but no doubt 35's if I had to guess.

Dan that was an absolute awesome post, I appreciate you very much finding that video.

So I was just up on the Rough Country website and can not find anything about the 2019 lift kit. Jeez, just like my 11th grade girlfriend, absolute tease!

 

Keep up these great posts with information you find though. I really appreciate everyone who have posted within the last week, very very informational and made me super excited!

No problem! I am sure there will be plenty of excitement about lifts for the T1 trucks.

I bet most of these Kits will be introduced at SEMA late next month where they will have tons of exposure.

RC has their 2" leveling spacer on the site now. This happened about a week or two after the video was posted.

So, maybe this 6" kit will be on the site in a week or two from now.

I, personally, really like the look of the sierra with a lift. I prefer a larger tire and smaller rim, although I don't think those rims are the best design for the Sierra. I'm waiting for the specs on the 3.0 Duramax to be released to determine if I want to trade my truck. I'm currently experiencing really annoying transmission issues and don't want to take the gamble to trade it in on a new truck to only get an 8 speed that has issues. I'd be willing to take that gamble if the 3.0 Duramax puts out good power figures though.

Were you also partial to Mama Fratelli from the Goonies? (Circa 1985)  

 

 

Just teasing Adam. To each their own. 

Maybe it is just the wheel and black color of the above 2019 lifted Sierra that throws the lift look off.

The 3.0 Duramax is definitely very anticipated.

Hahaha Definitely not.

I mean I am currently running 20" wheels with 35" tires. I would actually prefer 17's or 18's but it is much harder to find a nice wheel with the offset I want when you are at that size. I appreciate the larger wheel crowd too, there are some really good looking trucks with 20"+ wheels, and I think the look is especially fitting for Denali trims. I just like having the sidewall.

 

I will definitely be setting up a test drive for a 3.0 as soon as I can!

Here is what looks off and strange to me:

 

The Proportions of the Tire to Fender Opening ( RED ) Compared to the Gap between the tire & Fender Rear... Fender/Bumper Front at points 3 & 9 O'Clock

GMC's front leading edge angle ( BLUE ) also makes this lift tire combo very Odd!

I agree they stick out too far.  What's the offset on the wheel?  Funny they tell you everything except that.  

 

I also think if you're going to go up 2" in the front, you need to go up 1" out back.

It looks like a 35 will fit a leveled truck with stock offset wheels based on the Icon set up.  So I also assume an AT4 and Trailboss will fit 35s on stock wheels without any suspension mods
