Lifted/Leveled 2021 - Postem Up

[sanman28]

E rates are fine. Especially in vehicles that weight as much as these. Just don’t air them up as high.

Update: Added 1.25 HC spacers. A small amount of additional trimming but still not to crazy at all.

Nice!

Just installed a sort of Frankenstein lift on my wife’s 2021 Yukon XL. We have a 3” up front and a 2” in the rear with 275/65 20 BFG A/T and 20x9 BMF paybacks with a 0 offset. Looks so much better now!

Swapped tires to 295/60 20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Much better ride and stance.

Nice. Is that a very fat cat in the background?

Did you have an issue with the ko2’s….or just want something different?

That's the very first thing I noticed when I saw that picture

Any additional trimming/cutting?

 

[Kerrville15]

Yeah, she hogs the food bowl as you can tell.

The BFGs just didn’t ride the way we had been accustomed to with her old ridge grapplers. We had a little rain over the weekend and they just kind of wondered around more than I would like.

We did have to trim a little bit to make these fit, but now have zero rubbing. There’s a bracket behind the wheel well liners on the back side that I cut off and then that gave me the room to use some self tappers to push the liner back far enough.

Been very impressed with the ridge graps we put on our Yukon. Excellent performance in the rain and snow and ride really smooth and quiet. First set of them I’ve tried and love them so far

Good to hear. I almost went with those on the wifes high country, but was just a little sketched out about winter performance.

I had seen that they did not rate all that well in winter performance but I liked everything else about them. We don't actually get all that much snow and ice where I live in the PNW so figured they would be fine. Then around Christmas we had a 2 week stretch with snow/ice on the roads and these tires were excellent. Not one time did I lose traction unintentionally

how much trimming did you have to do? are these factory wheels?

Well I just ordered the 2” rough country and a set of 275/65R20 on stock wheels for my 2021 Tahoe. I’ll post up some pictures when done. I have the stock ugly running boards and was curious if anyone has the steps from there z71 they wanted to sell? Need them for the kids and wanted a better look. Thanks

Hey now….that is my idea as well.

I thought I’d post mine up since I’ve asked a million questions on here. See if I could help someone else with questions. I ended up just doing the lower strut spacer (said it was 1.5”) with 18x9 method 316’s and 285/70/18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Zero rubbing but I’m very very close to the liners…I think I pushed the limits and barely got away with it.

Looks very much like mine! Dig it.
