    Lifted/Leveled 2021 - Postem Up

    I'd like to see more pics and get more info on the lift. Yours sits just right!

    6.2L Engine... What gas are you using?

    I thought about this a lot before I bought my 5.3 Z71. You CAN run the 6.2 on 87 and the computer will adjust timing to protect the engine but it's not optimal to run at peak efficiency. I'm happy with the 5.3 and it moves me down the road just fine. I've got 38K on it already and for the life...

    Lifted/Leveled 2021 - Postem Up

    That looks really good. Couple of questions. How is the "rake" front to back. Hard to tell in the pic. Are those 275/65/20's? A question for the group: When you are upsizing, are you buying the upsized spare too? If so, does it fit under the truck?

    Front seats comfort

    I had a 2015 F150 Platinum prior to my 21 Z71 and I almost didn't by the Tahoe because of the seats. The Plat's seats were incredible and the Tahoe seats are hard and narrow by comparison. I typically spend 3hrs a day commuting and I'm 6' 250lb. I like everything else on the Tahoe so I...

    Lifted/Leveled 2021 - Postem Up

    Did you use any wheel spacers? I see on the RC site where all three customer examples used 2.25" Bora spacers. Is this critical? I'd rather my tires not stick out past the fenders if possible.

    Display brightness

    Thanks. Seems odd. My app is in dark mode and clearly working when I look down at the phone. Odd that the whole screen stays super bright.

    Display brightness

    I've got a question on the display. When I'm running carplay and using Waze for instance, it is super bright and seemingly not in "night" mode. Night mode is activated on my phone but not on the screen. My wife's new Mazda CX-9's display will be dark and in "night" mode at night. I've poked...

    Lifted/Leveled 2021 - Postem Up

    Love it!! Seems like 35x11.5's are hard to come by. Where did you get them? Also, is that rear bumper and exhaust part of getting a 6.2 now on the Z71??

    '21 Tahoe Z71 alignment - anyone else?

    I coincidently bought my Z71 with 4k miles on it and had the exact same thing happen to my front (stock size) tires. I'm thinking the factory alignment was off. Got it aligned and haven't had an issue since.

    Opinion Time - Upgrades for 2021 Z71 Suburban

    I think the grille guards might be problematic mounting them with the skid plate that comes with the Z71.

    2021 Leveling/Larger tires

    Thanks for the clarification. I've never been a fan of the tires outside of the fenders look. I do however like the look of taller tires on stock wheels with a moderate lift. I'm quickly running through the life of the stock tires and when I have to buy new tires, I want a plan to get the...

    2021 5.3/Oil pressure, how low is too low?

    2021 5.3. I'm seeing what looks to be around 26 to 28 lbs hot idle. Seems a little low. Highway 75 mph I'm around 60lbs. Normal?

    2021 Leveling/Larger tires

    that looks really good. Are the spacers needed to keep them from rubbing?

    Yes, please post as much info as you can.

    Fabtech 3 inch lift to fit 35s is here

    No doubt about that especially after "trimming" and "cutting" lol. Now I'm doing over 30K miles a year and I'll be out of the bumper to bumper warranty by the end of this year. Another year for the powertrain so not as big a deal for me. I can wait a little. I'm going through tires quickly...

    Fabtech 3 inch lift to fit 35s is here

    Fabtech got right back to me. I guess I'm going to have to wait to see if I can get more info on the set up I'm looking at in the pic. I don't want to be a guinea pig. I'm disappointed that they would post those pics without knowing the specifics of that customer vehicle. That's the exact...

    Fabtech 3 inch lift to fit 35s is here

    I've been waiting on this too. The Tahoe they have pictured is the same color as my Z71 and I really like the look. I sent them an email to find out what size and brand wheels are pictured as well as tire size. In the info, they note that with 33" tires there will need to be "minor trimming"...

    How about some gas mileage reports?

    I commute roughly 110 miles round trip each work day when I'm not traveling out of town for work. I'm consistently sitting at 19.5 mpg on the 450 mile average on the DIC. 2021 Z71 5.3. I'm typically unloaded and mostly highway.

    When will we see lift kits?

    Oh man, same color as mine. This is the exact stance I'm looking for. Hopefully we'll find out some more info on this lift.

    Which build months are safe from lifter problems?

    26K miles on my 7/20 build and no issues... hope I didn't just jinx myself :)

    Just stopped by to test drive a new Tahoe, ended up leaving with this thing....

    I put a ton of miles on my vehicles and I've never had a Tahoe before but everyone I know who has owned one has put a bunch of miles on them with little issue. As posted above, I wanted as few electronics and gizmos as possible as that is what ultimately failed in my previous F150 Platinum. My...

    GMC weather mats/cargo liner install ...

    The cargo liners are an absolute joke. Shame on GM for selling these with the pathetic attachment method. They didn't even stay on one day. GM should recall these and provide a proper attachment method or give us part $ back. The front and 2nd row are fine.

    Thinking of Selling my AT4

    I know exactly what you are going through. I've always had a pick up and bought my Z71 Tahoe in January and have had some regrets. However, I'm at the beach this week and was able to get 6 people and all of our gear here. Couldn't have done that in a pick up. Now's the time to sell!
