Great video documenting the process the truck looks amazing
No hate from California big dawg. Your a humble man brother. GOD bless. Truck looks dope
I checked your videos out because of truck master, that being said, I love the progress of the truck. The lift is incredibly sexy. Your truck is looking better and better as time goes on. -Miles
bearcatftball61 thanks man! Shoot I’m gonna owe TruckMaster finders fees much more lmao!
i have a question for you that i hope you can help me out with i want to install a oil temp sender that reads the oil before it dose in the heat exchanger on a 2006 gmc 2500hd duramax (RPO) lbz thank you
I thought your truck looked cool when I saw it at the Perry truck but now......can't wait to see it again on the 15th. Thanks for sharing, peace out. Al
Thanks man, looking forward to it!
Kind of an old post but I was wondering, doesn't bds make a recoil bar that is 68" and one that is 60"? Looks like you had the 60" and the longer would have been able to have been bolted through the frame?
I’m wondering if I’d run into that tie rod issue with kryptonite tie rods, I’m also using the kryptonite center link as well.
I remember in the video when you got it raptor lined, you said that you weren't going to lift it. I'm glad you did.
I am too lol😁
Did you cut any frame parts to make the installe ?
Hey Kyle I know this is old post and a stupid question but how can you tell you have true 7 inch lift? Any measurements if you got them sir...? Thank you in advance.
Great job keep up the good work
One word Wow!!! The looked good before Wow it really looks good now clean ass truck!!
Thanks man!👍
After 3 years what’s your thoughts on it? And how’s the quality of ride compared to factory
Will this lift kit fit a Chevy 05’ z71 1500?
Look's great Kyle!
Money well spent👍 very nice, very clean!
If you pause it at 6:18 you'll see that the weld in plate on the driver's side lower control arm wasn't installed. How's the truck holding up, any issues with it? I'm about to install a similar lift on truck and was curious if I had to weld that plate in or will it will fly without it?
Nah, that was just mocked up, it was welded back in after that, at 9:19 you kinda can see it. And it’s holding up amazingly, still kinda looking for tie rod ends that will work well with the kit without heavy modification, but other than that it’s great!!
Rustbelt Mechanic awesome! Thanks for the response. Truck looks awesome! After I saw your truck i was going to try and stuff 37's on my 6 inch on my 2500hd. Ill update you this thread if I made it happen.
Did you have to put spacers in the rear with this kit so you don’t get uneven wear?
Yes used 2” spacers on the rear.
If you figure out how to upgrade the tierods please update on that. I was looking at bds for some time but if i cant upgrade tierods thats a big turn off
I definitely will, we’re thinking the Kryptonite ones may have enough but we will see here soon
@@RustbeltMechanic awesome. Im the next two months hopefully i will be buying a dmax if i can find one for the right price but these indiana people think they have a golden egg and want your first born child for one. But soon I'll be starting a build. Love the channel keep up the great work
nick robb seriously check out Perry auto sales up in Perry MI over on Truckmasters channel, they’ve got good trucks at honest prices
Cut the tie rod to size so it fits!!! ^^
Did anyone end up solving the tie rod problem except for cutting them
What size wheels and tires do you have?
The wheels are 22x12 with a -44 offset. Tires are 37x13.50
Why did you have the lift components sprayed a lighter color? BTW, the components look to be high quality and a very clean install.
Wayne Tjornhom to give contrast to all the dark parts and it’s sprayed in the raptor liner, so it’s way tough.
Rustbelt Mechanic , I get the bed liner concept but I’ve never seen light grey used. I’ve seen contrast with bright colors.
Nice bro👌
Those PPE tie rods are threaded internally all the way so just trim them
I woulda ditched the recoil bars and upgraded the rear leafs to get rid of the block. Sweet rig though!
Stay tuned for this upgrade (hint hint) 😏
Wait so you can fit 37s with 7” BDS suspension with no problem?
Kind of...I’ll do an update video on the next few weeks. But I did a full NorCal on a video and the truck sitting perfectly level only rubs slightly in reverse. I’ll be going for no rub at all in the next month or so with a mod for this.
I really wanna run 37s on my lbz but seems like getting a bigger lift is the way to go. Would lift keys be best to fit 37s with a 6” lift?I really want a kelderman air lift but that’s just time and money.
If you don’t want rubbing get a bigger lift, but 7” Lift is cutting it close and still has minor rubbing even with a full NorCal. I plan on getting the 5” Lift leaf springs for the rear and adding a 2” block, then turning my front keys up to match, that will clear everything.
How lond did it take to figure out the abs line needed to be on the tie rod end side and not the caliper side lmao... Good video though thats how u know its real lol
My truck is leveled and my head is at the top of the mirrors so 7 inches seems like a waste of money
I liked lifted trucks when I was a kid, now it’s just the opposite. Gonna miss the stock look man however, It did turn out good. I don’t know to me they all look the same lifted it’s just what everyone does 🤷🏻♂️
not a Duramax guy, but I think I came a little.....great job bro
