Little late to the party but a tip for the tie rod ends is banging on the spindle itself around the tie rod. That loosens the tension better than trying to hit the actual top of the threads through the spindle
Thanks for taking time to make this video, truck looks badass I am at this very moment working on my 2019 Colorado 2inch leveling kit . I hope to get same results as you. Thanks for your help bro
Thank you so much for the support! Im glad the video is helpful. The truck transformed so much with the leveling kit. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to reach out 🤟
Appreciate the effort. Thanks for the video. I now can do this on my own.
No problem! Happy wrenching!
Anyone about to do this project should do a couple of things that makes it much easier... use a impact! Take off the sway bar it makes it much easier, take the calipers off and hang from frame so you don't hurt brake lines. You can't measure from wheel well because front has a higher arch so its an optical illusion. The truck should be measured at rocker panel. That truck is sitting level. I put on 2" Rough country struts and truck rides great! A simple swap and don't have to disassemble struts. I also put a factory 2018 Z71 Silverado block and ubolts in the rear. It fit perfect and was from my Silverado after a lift. I'm really thinking about putting a 1/4" spacer on top of struts to get another 1/2" out of the front. I have 0 issues and my 2022 Colorado LT REDLINE EDITION 4x4 is constantly off road with no problems, squeak or popping.
Thanks for all the tips. I will soon be making the switch to the leveling struts from Rough Country because the ride is not as comfortable and I get a decent clunk from the driver side front going over bumps. I look forward to getting it worthy of the trails again
@RedneckTuners also to get tie rods out just smack the knuckle a couple of times where tie rod goes in. It will fall right out. Taking a few minutes to disassemble the calipers and sway bar help a lot !!! They're just in the way.
Great video. I will be doing this soon.
crazy how much a leveling kit does
Looks great! I did the same! I'm about to do the 1 inch block in the back
Thank you!! It transforms the truck completely, im considering a block as well 🤟
@@RedneckTuners yes sir.. I also just put the 31 inch duratracs on but they are only 1 inch wider and a bit thicker.. I kind of wish I went with a 33 but didn't want to be bothered with trimming.. I'm still considering
@@ryank9910 nice! I got a new set of wheels and 265/70/17 tires to match. I love the ride and not having to trim at all
@@RedneckTunersThanks Man
What are you getting in mpg now that you leveled out your truck compared to what you got before.
19-20 mpg right now. I used to average about 22mpg
Great video sir thanks.does the suspension system from 2015-2022 is the same??🌹
Yes they are! All the same except for the zr2 models but its just a different strut.
Is there any danger of pulling out the inner CV joint with that spindle hanging down so low?
Its definitely possible but i tried my best to support the lower control arm somehow throughout the process. If you are careful you should not have any issues
what size tires are you running
265/65/17
@@RedneckTuners are you getting any rub at full lock out?
Shocks do nothing for ride height..unless there air shocks
Worn shocks actually sag from original factory height because the spring (for fronts) and the actual absorber wear out and do not rebound like they used to. My truck has over 100k miles and the difference in rebound, height, and comfort was completely noticeable.
