- Hey, guys, Shawn, again, Custom Offsets,
Custom Offsets TV on YouTube,
and the Facebook, and the Twitter, and other stuff.
We have another episodes of Levels and Lifts.
That's not the name of it.
Lifts and Levels.
I don't know why I'm talking like a robot.
We should try this again.
We got another episode of Lifts and Levels for you.
This is gonna be a leveling kit.
We're gonna try and bring you
each generation of each vehicle,
so don't get all upset about the Chevys.
We haven't done this generation.
So this will basically work for the '07 and a half,
the new body style, whatever the hell we call it,
all the way to 2017, because it's basically a strut spacer.
So this is gonna go on the bottom of the strut,
which I can't show you right now,
but we'll get you some inside shots
as he installs it.
So this is about an inch thick spacer.
This is gonna raise that truck about an inch and a half
from the geometry of the suspension.
So we're then gonna try to fit 20 by nine
plus 15s 33 12.5s in there.
We're a little weirded out that
the customer brought in their own
and brought in only an inch and a half lift,
or a leveling kit, I should say.
We'll give it a shot.
We would've recommended, like, a two, two and a half inch
level up front to make that fit.
But we'll give it a shot, see what happens.
There might be some trimming involved,
and you'll get to see all that
(hip-hop music)
So, as you guys saw, he put that spacer
down at the bottom of the strut.
Now, because that was that one inch spacer,
it's gonna bring the front end up
about an inch and a half,
so on this truck, it's still gonna be
about a half inch down in the front,
so you still have a little bit of the rake of the vehicle,
but with the wheel that he chose,
a 20 by nine plus 15, remember plus means that
it's gonna be pulled in a little bit,
the zero offset is about flush,
negative offset comes out here.
Plus 15 means it's moved in 15 millimeters,
or about half an inch.
So what that did was,
even with that one and a half inch level
in this 33 12.5,
he was still able to clear it,
and even at full crank it comes nowhere near the front end.
It's about an inch of clearance up front,
and then in the back, only at complete and total crank,
Fuller, if you come look right here,
there's this little bump out in the felt,
and it just barely will touch that
if you're bombing forward into a driveway,
but it's just gonna rub felt,
and I don't even know if you'll hear it.
So this is what we would call a perfect fit,
would be an inch and a half level,
20 by nine plus 15s, and those 33 12.5s
with that leveling kit,
it actually worked out really well.
We thought we were gonna have to get in there
and do a little bit of trimming,
but it seems that that one and a half is about perfect.
If you went two inch, you would even clear
that back piece, we feel,
and the truck would actually be perfectly level,
and then you would be able to go with the same setup
and clear it completely.
So, that's Lifts and Levels.
Make sure you share, make sure you subscribe,
make sure you tell your friends,
tell your neighbors, tell your cousins, tell your auntie.
Peace.
