Why does this rig looks like it sits so level???
I'm going to tweak my torsion bars this weekend and back them back out. Likely going to add back some of the stock rake. Right now my tahoe sits level likes yours. It's just super bouncy.

Mine is an 05 LT trim with new suspension and new ACD Nivomats in the rear.

I wish I could say, but the only thing I’ve done suspension wise was eliminate the rear Nivomat shocks when they started leaking, and swapped to normal non nivomat springs and bilsteins in the rear. That was around 2017. I didn’t notice any bounce in the truck, either before or after.

Got the brake kit installed today! Fit like it was meant to be there!

GM Brake Calipers 13545382/13525383
Powerstop Brake Pads 17-2173
Powerstop Brake Rotors AR84103EVC
Brake Caliper Bolts 84504 (Napa)
2 grade 8 washers per bolt to center caliper and rotor assembly

The wheel specs are 20x10 -18 offset Fuel Rebel for fitment concerns, there is a lot of space between the wheel and the caliper

I'm a structural engineer and focus on existing buildings assessment, evaluations and repairs. This is a building they are renovating in Lubbock. A few months ago I looked at another building in Midland.

Yes, everything out there is oil/gas. It's crazy business. My company has a separate department that does consulting for that industry. Was told in Midland a few pharmaceutical companies too.

I'm in SW Dallas, not far from DBU. But lived in Irving before. Some co workers here live in Frisco.
I live fairly near to DBU -- I used to live in Irving as well. Small world!!!

This past Saturday/Sunday I bought a set of 275/65R20 Michelin Defenders with about 50-60% tread left. I picked up these wheels (used) on Sunday:

Monday I had the tires mounted to the rims and the whole lot balanced, and Tuesday I delivered them to the gentleman modifying my 2500HD.

I'm still looking for center caps for the above, for less than $50 each!!! No luck so far. I'm also looking at clones, but even they are still $50 each. And I need one, 2 would be better, and a full set would be preferred. I only got three caps with the rims, one of which does not have a center section, and none of which did I get the bolts to hold them in.

I also asked him to look at the horrible job that had been on my daughter's Sierra; the passenger side door just does not fit the cab correctly. We've had it back to the body shop three times. :mad: So now I need to find a shop to actually do it right.

Took her through the semi-annual emissions test today; sometimes they do just an OBD read, but this time they worked her on the treadmill so we got actual numbers. All readings less than 4% of the limits. E85 (E70 is actual) FTW.
