How To: NorCal Mod on a 2007-2013 Chevy Silverado 1500

[@DavidHernandez-zw5vs]

I actually did exact Norcal to my leveled 2010 Silverado Z71 myself and it worked perfectly last year til i got my lift. Thanks to Shawn and Custom offsets. Keep doing the videos they really help.

[@SuperSteeldrum]

David Hernandez any tips scared to cut my truck

[@yourmomsbf3651]

justin ferreira If u want the stance you gotta compromise my man 😂

[@aric2352]

Wanna come do mine I'm disabled can't do it? Lol

[@somanynamesilltrythis0180]

Somewhere out there is a group of old school off roading buddys saying "NorCal? Shit, we've been doing this since the 80's". Thank you for making this video. I appreciate it, I'll be doing this to my 08 Silverado this weekend.

[@Heywoodthepeckerwood]

Yeah we were doing this to trucks in the 1990s at the tire shop I worked at. In central Oregon where we hate anything from California. Especially the parasites that leave.

[@Reaperhydraulicstampa]

Agreed . I'm from the South and we had lifted trucks and big tires before California had running water. I guess if you call a NorCal mod beating your metal in with a sledge hammer... I guess you can keep that name then

[@tylerjack8268]

I would strongly recommend giving it a shot if you are not sure the cut is super easy and bending the metal in the right spots is easy. After I completed the mod I fit 33 by 12.5 perfectly.

[@coryt-notctk6822]

[@juanvillalva8344]

Just did my 2013 1500 Z71 leveled Silverado. Tires fit perfect. Thanks for the video

[@hectorpaz4701]

Juan Villalva Can i see some pics?

[@STO817]

Followed this Video to do my 2012 leveled Z71 worked great! 20X12 on 33s no more rubbing! Thanks for your help!

[@sameddleman4991]

Video quality and production is getting alot better

[@makeway305]

I did the exact same thing to my truck. (07 Avalanche) I learned by watching your videos of the earlier models. So thanks for that also you can add to you title that it's for the same year Avalanche's and Tahoe's

[@cameronc8468]

Y'all should redo this video. Not that it's bad. I just want to see how y'all do it now almost 2 years later. I'm sure it would be a little cleaner now.?

Same 20” wheels on my 2011 Sierra with a 6” lift

[@luisesc2305]

You rub at all? I just got 22x12s on 34” and still don’t clear. *6inch lift too

[@StreetandTrail]

@@luisesc2305 Rubs a little I just need to trim more plastic though

[@owenchaffey9270]

Got a 2013 Silverado 1500 with a readylift leveling kit, order 20x10 moto metal 970s with 33x12.5. I also had wheel spacers and I had to do a hell of a lot more cutting lol

[@tantan-ik8nn]

what all did you cut? did you cut the pinch welds completely out of it

[@Daronvines]

I have an 08 Sierra with a Motofab 3 inch front 2 inch back. Wanting to put the same wheel but different tire. I guess I’m asking if the tires are still going to rub the fluid tank but I guess you’d have to see it to know. Just trying to get the same look kinda.

[@jovanyflores2366]

Thanks man for taking the time to send me the link to this video, think I might just lift the front up another inch and half and have the back squat, feeling a little nervous with that cutting! Lol

[@gillz9830]

I fit my 22x12 on 35s on a 1inch country lift kit and did my own modifications had to remove windshield water tank on my 07 tahoe

[@MRLSUFAN12]

did you remove the tank or just relocated it

[@joshuasolon9440]

I have a 2019 Silverado 2500 ltz and would love to see this done on one around my years. I have a slight rub and a norcal tuck would probably do the trick. Setup is 3.5" fabtech/stealth Shocks with 20x10 -24 4play wheels on 33x12.50.

[@CustomOffsetsTV]

Sounds like a nice setup! Make sure you add it to our gallery if you havent already! customoffsets.com/add

[@alexiscoronado2730]

Hello i have a 7.5 lift with 20x14 on 35s and at full turn it berly clears how can i make some fender flares fit with out rubbing?

[@CustomOffsetsTV]

You would most likely rub with fender flares, i would recommend to possibly trim it back a little bit or go with a taller lift if possible to avoid trimming.

[@jareds70]

Dodge Ram 1500 02-05 with a RC 5'' lift on some 20x14 with 33x12.50! love this video's keep it coming!

So similar subject, would a 20x9, either 0 or +18 offset with 305/55r20 have to go through this much trimming or would it be plastic rub?

Try doing the north cal mode on a 2nd gen dodge on 20 or 22X12’s on a 325/50r22 or 35X12.5r20

i have the 3 inch level up on my 11 silverado and it avoided having to do any of that cutting, just had to pull the plastics back.

when you guys do the spotlight videos could you show a shot at full crank ( front and rear of the tire ). the 2016 chevy silverado high country video would of been awesome to see how much rubs or to see how close it is

[@lancenorthcutt7813]

Will this work on 2011 Silverado 35x12r22 I shaved the front and it cleared and now it's rubbing the back and looks like this would stop it but before I hack away my truck I wanna know if it's gonna do any good cause of the video being 33s

Would love to a 06-10 Chevy Colorado or GMC Canyon, keep up the work can tell a huge improvement in video quality go Jr.

Any shops that can do this for me or will I need to do it myself?

Definitely shops that can do this!

mud tires and a lift just for daily driving. got to love those concrete cowboys.

[@skillz101989]

So 33x12.5 will fit just fine on a 22x12 -50 offset wheel by doing this? I have a 2.5 MotoFab leveling kit 2wd same truck but had some issues with rubbing

[@CustomOffsetsTV]

Take a look in our gallery to get some more specifics on what fits and what others have done to make similar setups fit! customoffsets.com/gallery

[@skillz101989]

@@CustomOffsetsTV so I just did the NorCal mod and it was fairly simple. It took me less than 2 hours of time. 15 spent on jacking car up since I did one side at a time. Anyone that's comfortable cutting should be able to do this.

[@jigga2183]

What would you have to do for 24x12 on 35s? A 4 inch lift would work? With the norcal? Or do i HAVE to go 6"?

[@josetorres192450]

James Sorrells that ain't much bigger just wider a 305 is pretty much a 33. He has another video where they do it on a silverado. If the front rubs you can take that plastic that runs across under the front bumper off

Norcals, are able to be done on any vehicle that requires it Carlos!

[@Carlos_agripino]

Custom Offsets thank you

[@bradywelsh7705]

If I have a 3 inch level kit would I still have to do a norcal?

[@johns818]

I would never do this.. The better way to go is to install upper and lower arms that widen the track width and moves the tire/spindle forward 1 inch and then make all ur cuts on the bumper. Out here in SoCal you see a lot of Silverado Prerunners on 37s (with fiberglass) that sit lower than this truck in the video and still dont rub. Also, by removing metal from that specific section of the cab, it will decrease the buckle resistance of your A pillar.. and in general you never want to remove material from the coroner of a stamped sheet metal structure.

[@dakotarainwater5846]

If I did this what tire size would I need to get the same look but still have the drivability for off road as well

[@jasonwiechec301]

Would a 20x10 with a -18 offset with a 33 x12.5 tire work with the same leveling kit

[@CustomOffsetsTV]

a 10 wide -18 wouldn't require as much of a norcal, as it doesn't sit out as far. But the concept is the same just not ass intrusive of cutting/folding of metal!

i have a 2013 Z71 LTZ with a 2.5 rough country kit on it. 20x10 Helo HE835 rims with -18 offset with 33x12.5R20 Lt tires no trimming, or rubbing.

[@ritoluis4903]

I hear them mention the rims offset. Seems like a 12.5 tire on a 0 offset rim would work with no norcal.

do you just put the 2in level kit in the front or all around and if you just do the leveling kit can u do 24 with 33 on it
