I like the fact that this is a real review no technical terms and non sense just an honest and to the point review. I already ordered my kit before watching this video getting installed monday, but wanted a realistic expectation of this lift and to see how the black rims would look with chrome bumper and trim. thanks a lot definitely feel better about my decision and great video man. for sure gonna subscribe

I have a 17’ Silverado and just got the 7 inch RC knuckle lift and 35x12s on it. I get crazy vibrations when I get past like 60ish on the highway. Did you have this issue??
@RespectTheReef2 жыл бұрын
No I didn’t have this issue. I’m not sure what would cause this? Is everything tight?
@d.parker1062 жыл бұрын
@@RespectTheReef found out the issue was due to the wheels I bought from Custom Offsets. They were terrible imbalanced and ai took them to a shop and had them rebalanced and its all good now

I’m guessing you have 3.73 gears in your rear. Is it 4x4 I’m wanting to go 7” lift on my 2000 Chevy Silverado but stock I have 4.10 gears so i should be fine with those gears unless I wanna go bigger. You can also do a tune to help the gas mileage.
