Yea I agree, i would always do the lift over the level all day, I just like the looks of the beefy UCA 's, and definitely the NTD
I'm doing same lift height same company BDS this week. My first ever lift I was going to do 6in but realized I'm not doing anything crazy anyways no need for it. Either way I'm excited. I'm excited for my 2011 2500HD Silverado itll look clean. Now wheels and tires is the next task and I have no clue what any of these numbers mean lol.
Nice color of the truck and a very beautiful house
+timothy russell thank you !
Looks great! Bad ass color... I have always loved that purple. I am lifting my Yukon Denali next week.
Thanks what lift are you going with on the yukon ?
Nice set up I couldn't decide which lift kit should I use and that set up that you have is exactly what I need.
+Ismael Flores the bds kit is awesome
looks amazing, bud
+JW Montoya thanks man!
Gorgeous truck, man!
Andrew Phillips thank you!
And Trailor Tow Is Kick Ass Homeboi
Pocket fender flares would be a good look and should keep debris off that paint.
Yea I've been checking out the zone stuff too, I like those UCA 's they have, they look like the cognito 's except not as expensive, makes u wonder if your just paying for the name.
+Tom Makarow if you just do uca and crank the keys your ride is gonna be gone. Only reason I didnt do a leveling kit to keep the good ride. And opted for the bds kit over zone because it was a non torsion bar drop kit vs the zone kit that drops the bars. Pure looks
Dude sweet truck! I have a 05 LLY that I bought lifted I believe it has a 6.5 in lift but there’s no marking to what brand or nothing. Wanting to go down to a 4.5” lift. Just wondering if maybe you could give me a measurement on your spindle ? From the bottom ball joint hole to the top ball joint hole on the knuckle/spindle. Bc mine has lifted knuckles but I don’t know how lifted they are so I’m not 100% sure on what lift is on my truck right now.
Thanks man. Are there any markings on the skid plates with a brand for the lift? Might help narrow down the size aswell. My knuckles is is 21 3/4" from the top of it down to the bottom joint. Let me know if I can get any other measurements to help I'll do what I can.
I found a small sticker on my front shock that looks like it says “zone” so maybe a zone off road lift kit. I measured my knuckle from the top to the bottom where the stud on the ball joint goes through and my knuckles are only measuring 19” top to bottom. The front diff seems to be dropped down around 5”. And I have 5” blocks under the leaf springs in the back. I’ve got the torsion bars down cranked down just nearly as far as I can go with them and the front still sits about 2” higher than the back. My cv axles are nearly perfectly straight. So I’m not really sure what’s going on
@@grantsisco8860 if you look at your truck from the side do your torsion bars hang down below the frame? If they do I would think it could be a zone kit if there tucked up under the frame cant see them from the side angle I'd think it was another brand of kit. My truck only has 3" blocks in the front. What is your measurement from the ground to the fender on the front ?
Seth, really enjoy your videos. Got a '19 3500 and scheduled for pretty much the exact same setup. Do you really feel the need and see a difference in the steering stabilizer, and Pittman braces that you put on? My shop says those add on items only mask other problems.
Also, 2+ years into it, what are your thoughts on the whole lift? Did you get a tune in stepping up the tire and wheel size?
Also, I'm putting on the 2" Bushwhacker fender flares so my tires are flush with the flares.
Real sick setup. I am curious of clearance on garage door. I really don't want 2 sacrifice parking in garage in winter. How close are you?
Brent Harris my doors are 8' and it doesnt even hit the antenna for the radio at all. If you have 7' doors it might not fit
u Sittin nice
Seth, what is turning radius like before and after? I’m looking at either the BDS 4.5” or the Fabtech 4”. Ive heard that a ton of turning radius is lost when you go to a new spindle/full suspension lift. I’ve got a level kit on my duramax currently and it rides like shit, so wanted to get a similar height (I’m currently at about 45” on front fender) but also get my ride quality back...but then hesitate if turning radius gets considerably worse. Thanks for any info brother.
I haven't notice much difference in turning radius after the lift. It still a bitch to park either way with the size of the truck. I just park in the back of parking lots lol. You'll enjoy the ride improvement going to the lift over the leveling kit.
Do you think you could had gotten away with 20x10 with -12 offset with the same tires
+YungDiddy probably could might have to trim the front just a little. I think ive seen on the duramax forum somone running -12 on 35x12.50
Hey brother, beautiful house and truck. What state are you in? I’m beyond ready to gtfo of California. And I’m not the Prius driving snob that most states are tired of seeing move-in.
Good ol South Carolina its a great place to live
@@sethtyndall4447 I live in Greer SC
@@DJStroble I'm up in tigerville I'm in Greer all the time.
That’s awesome, my good buddy lives in tigerville. I am getting a 2015 duramax this week. Did you take it to Carlton customs?
@@DJStroble Nice. I did I only had them do the lift wheels and tires. Everything else other than color match I've done myself. You going to delete it?
Very dope truck by the way
+YungDiddy thank you
Good looking truck
+Tom K thanks man
This truck is the exact set up I would like to go with. I will be driving alot so mileage is still a factor for me. With the delete, lift and tires what is your normal mileage with the truck?
Thank you
If your doing tons of driving don't lift and put tires on just delete it and go. My best highway mpg deleted was 22. Same trip on 35s is now 17-18 driving like granny.
Nice clean truck bro
Steve Picazo thanks man
Good taste on the XD Misfits gonna be my next choice probably.
I'm Zoid thanks man its a great wheel agressive and not every truck has them you'll enjoy them
Nice truck. Why the truck is no leveled? Im about to do that, but I personally don’t like that. lol
Thanks it's not level cause I went to the 3" rear block instead of the 2" or even the stock block. The plan is to go back to the stock blocks and run air bags so I can adjust the height depending on if I'm loaded down or not
nice truck man enjoy
F , E & SONS LANDSCAPING herrera thank you!
How is the road noise with lift and tires compared to stock? manageable for long distances?
Its slightly louder than it was. Nothing that would drive you crazy on a long trip. But my exhaust amd music covers most of the noise completely
looks badass . you have a new subscriber .
+Evan stanley thanks man! Glad your enjoying the vids!
Love it.
I’m getting a 4” lift put on my Sierra this week with 35”x12.50’s on 20x9’s with a +20 offset. You think the tire size would be fine? That’s what was recommended, but not sure about how the offset will be
How did it work out? I'm getting the 4.5" lift. Just wanted to know what other people think
It looks awesome....👍👍👍👍
Thanks man I love it everytime I look at I just love it more
Yeah man I can't wait ..to lift my avalanche..
@@chevyguydiegod5516 you going to do 35s?
@@sethtyndall4447 no...already have 33 on it...just going to use those for now...
The 33 s look nice but ..the old lady needs a lift hahah...it will look so much better...in custom off sets they have a black avalanche..lifted..6 inch..and it looks very hot...and it has 33 ...and she looks good
Nice Job.
Nice truck
are still able to fit in that garage
Yes that garage door is 8' tall fits with ease
Are you the humble mechanic??? You look exactly like him
Fix it Fast haha his beard is on another level. Lol
With this setup and your wheels being a positive offset did you do any trimming to make them with the lift 🤔
YungDiddy I trimmed the lower valance before the lift just in case and after the lift I had to zip tie back the front fender well, I does rub very very slighty on the corner tab of the bumper when turned just right hitting a decent bump
Did u choose the lift option to make it still rake??
Chief what job do you have earning 700 a day?
Telecommunications contracting
LoL...I thought the same thing. I was like daaaaang!
With the 4/5 BDS can I use the factory rims with some 35" tires?
After a year and a half with this lift, are you still happy with the quality? Anything needed to be replaced?
Still love it handles great rides great no issues towing nothing. The only thing I had an issue with was a squeaking torsion key that turned out to be and easy easy fix and really wasnt the lift kits fault
@@sethtyndall4447 Im about to pull the trigger on this kit and wanted to see if you had any thoughts on a couple things. How much lift does this kit get from tightening the torsion keys? Im thinking of installing the 4.5" but turning the front end down a little. My goal with the kit is more to get a good height with the kit, get flat CV angles, but not necessarily run huge tires. I have a level kit on my 2016 LML but it rides terrible and the angles are awful. Also did you do any research on getting beefier tie rods. Thanks for the knowledge!!!
@@cjknapp mine is set as low as it would go right at 4.5 great flat angles. I wouldn't go much smaller than a 35 on this kit. The tires start to look to small with that much lift. I see no need to regear for the 35s still more than enough power. Heavy tierods are on the list aswell as a cognito pisk steering kit. Just to make sure everything is solid. Hope that helps!
Seth Tyndall how have the 35s affected your mpg?
@@cjknapp I get about 15-16 mpg right now. I do alot of short trips less than 2 miles and some city driving
What year is the truck? I have a 2015.5 Duramax, I'm curious if I need to buy any of the other features besides just the standard kit?
Mine is a 15.5 also I've added a cognito steering brace kit was a nice addition
Gotcha. How has the suspension held up? Any issues?
@@Chandler826 other than a sqeauking torsion key easy fix. it's been amazing rides very well.
What’s the gas mileage before and after the lift?
verticalbitewing before the lift and 35s was getting 18 on my drive to work after the 35s I get 15-17 depending on how I drive. Towing went from 12 loaded on the hwy at 75-80 after the 35s went to 10
What’s your off set on rims and what size are your rims? And tires?
+Gabe Eboli 0 offet 20x9 35x11.50x20 tires
Level that truck out brother
+paul duramaxhd I know it thinking about leaving the front as is and doing airbags ans smaller blocks in the rear so I can be level unloaded and have rake when I tow
Awesome cv angles! I feel like I see all different angles with the same kit though?? How'd u get yours so flat?, I want the same kit for my 17 2500d
+Tom Makarow the kit can be turned up with the torsion keys and create a much steeper angle on the cv my kit was set right at 4.5" and not turned up at all.
Seth Tyndall , excellent thanks for the info man! Wanna do the same thing with some 33's, ride is good though?! Did u do the fox shocks
I think the ride is better than factory if you ask me, no i just went with the standard bds shocks
Cool man thanks!! Can't wait to get it done, I always say if the ride can at least be as good stock id be happy, everybody's like just do the fox coilovers.. I'm like yea ok..
+Tom Makarow yea thats just out of the question for money lol it like doubles the cost of the kit and the install
Awesome truck, love the videos, just subbed. I am putting a 4.5 BDS on my 17 GMC Duramax next week. Still undecided on tire and size. What are you running, 295/65R20 or 35x11.50R20LT? Did you have to do any trimmin for those tires? I am looking for a little less offset and my rims are +20. Is your lift cranked up or down at all? Would you be able to lower the front a little if you wanted to or decided to go with a smaller tire? Looking forward to hearing what you think about those tires for noise and gas mileage.
Big Jerm I'm running the 35x11.50x20 which according to nittos website are really a 34.76 tall and no trimming in the back,of the wheel well I did trim the valance just in case and cause it looks better. With the 0 offset there is one spot on the front bumper when turned just right highing a bump it'll rub but not enough for me to trim it, I also zip tied back the fender wheels in the front just in case The lift is set right at 4.5 I'm sure it could go down slightly but not enough to make it worth while imo, I think you could run a wide 33 and it still look good if you didnt want as big of a tire. And so far I would recommend these tires for sure great look and low noise. Thanks for subbing!
Thanks Seth, appreciate the response. Keep the videos coming!
No problem glad I could help! Let me know if theres anything else I can help with.
Got my truck back today with the BDS 4.5, Fuel rims and 35s. Send me a PM with your Email address and I'll send you some photos. Turned out perfect.
Big Jerm do you have instagram?
I got a 2008 Chevy with a 7.3 bullet proof motor twin trubo with a 8 inch dump exughst on 44x14.50R24 American Forces has making 600hp
truck is looking good homie
Jeff Kidding Thank you!
Change those rear blocks and drop it down
Are your torsion keys cranked?
Nope. That and the flat control angles keep the ride nice for a 2500
Hey brother question was that the biggest wheels setup possible on a lift that size.i placed a order for bds 4.5 for my 17 denali 3500hd but confused about ordering wheels and tires I was wanting 22 by 35s with front bumper pushed out .75” not sure about offset and all that
+Farm Lyfe offset is gonna be the reason it doesnt fit you could probably run a 37 with a cloae to stock offset with little trimming. My wheels are a 0 offset I would say 0 to -12 you wont have much trimming more offset than that your gonna have to cut something
How much was the lift installed? I'm starting to save up. Nice truck!
The lift and the install were 3100 bucks with alignment I also bought wheels and tires from my local offroad shop that did the instal
@@sethtyndall4447 wheels tires lift and alignment all for 3100?
@@franciscorodriguez6511 No with wheels and tires it was a little over 5k
Ricardo Moreira 3:43
No I hear ya... can't justify that kinda dough
Tom Makarow nope not worth it when this kit or even the zone 5" kit does just as good of a job
Will this fit in a 7'0 garage? What is the height to the top of the truck?
Taylor Bergeron it would be close best I can tell measuring to the sharkfin antenna is 7' or a little over
Thank you! I'm putting this lift with the 2" block and trying to get an estimate for parking garages.
Taylor Bergeron just have the shop set the keys as low as possible when they install it that should help a little on the hieght aswell
Can you verify that your garage is 8ft door and not standard 7ft. I am praying 7ft lol
Its 8' I built that house and made sure it had 8 ft doors so I could fit the truck lol. Each truck is different though have the lift set as low as you can get it an maybe run 34s instead of 35s
What deletes were
Done?
Dpf and def were deleted the egr is still on the truck but its blocked. The tuning shuts down the egr just a ton of work to remove it vs blocker plates
So did you go with a zero offset or a plus one offset? You said both here
20x9 0 offset
I ordered a set this morning! Gonna make my truck look similar to yours. I have a 2018 gmc Denali. I would really like to do the deletes my only concern is North Carolina does emissions testing so I’m not sure it would pass inspection
verticalbitewing st130x@gmail.com I'd love to see it all done. Im not far from NC don't only certain counties do the emissions test?
Seth Tyndall oh I’ll have to check!
If you have facebook check out southern diesel mafia there is lots of guys in NC could recommend a shop that might have more info on deletes around you
What exhaust system do you have on this truck. Sounds really nice.
5" straight pipe from Flo pro from the down pipe back no tip
any rubbing up front?
+Sean Faulk only on the very corner of the bumper where the metal tab connects to the valance and have to be turned just right and hit a bump to get it to do it
Could 37's have made it on your truck or would it have been too much trimming?
Sean Faulk I'm sure you could run 37s but your going to be cutting the bumper and possible the back side of the wheel well to. I didnt go 37s because I don't want to regear. Most guys seem to run the 6.5" kit on 37s and the 4.5" on 35s
Thanks. 35 x 12.5's it will be
What Costas are those?
+Darrell Caulder fantails
I think I have the same exact glasses. Hows the BDS lift? I want a 4 inch BDS on my Chevy 1500. But three of the shops I've been to told me not to buy a BDS.
Sounds like they may not make as much money on the bds kit as they do on another kit. They have a lift time warranty on there kits you break it they replace it I highly recommend bds
The shops seem to be RC dealers so I assume thats why they dont want to promote other kits. Thanks for talking to me man. Sweet truck.
Yea man no problem and thanks
why do people make bogus titles for their vids? its fuckin corny. nice truck
Thats how the game of TH-cam is played if I title it my truck gets nicer no one watches hint that I could have fucked it up doubles the views
chrome wheels woulda looked better
Did you go over loaded?
JonLIsALoser are you asking if I got the overload leaf packs Vs blocks?
Seth Tyndall yes I’ve seen that’s there both available 2in /3in blocks or rear leafs
Ive got the 3" blocks in mine. When I have some free cash I'm going to go back to the stock block and do airbags so I can adjust the hieght when i want. So it'll be level when I'm not towing and have the rake when I am
