Came for the lift, finished the video deciding I'm going to get married. Thanks for the inspiration.
😂😂 greatest comment yet.
Well I guess you got a free alignment claiming your truck was scratched. It was clearly there just after your son popped the bubble. You owe Firestone an apology! Kind of low
the scratch was there ALREADY! 13:30 no way you never saw it before.
11:40 wasn't there 🧐
Lol
@@iggy9907 yeah it was
Firestone is and will always be the worst place along side discount tire😂
I couldn't agree with you more about Firestone. I haven't had any issues with Discount Tire but I usually just take my car truck in there for the free stuff like rotations.
I'm so with you on working on my own stuff. Been burnt so many times by shop's and dealerships. I don't mind paying for great work by professionals but I'll just do it myself now on. Great Job on the trail boss plus it satisfying knowing you did it yourself!
😎👍
Firestone is THE WORST, I have had 5+ vehicles be ruined by them for trivial things like alignments and always had to pay more money to fix their work. NEVER go back to firestone
I’ll never take any of my vehicles to another Firestone for as long as I live. Took my car to them years ago to have a nail in my tire removed and my tire repaired. I later discovered that they slammed my trunk (which had an electric housing) and shattered the mechanism also breaking the motor that latched the trunk. They denied it, and refused to replace/repair. Funny thing is that they had absolutely zero reason to be in my trunk in the first place. Garbage shops with garbage mechanics.
That damage...I know the feeling. Stay away from those chains shops.
I laughed way to hard when the balloon your son was inflating popped. Reminded me of myself when I was a kid. Did the same thing and my Dad told me the exact same thing, didn't listen and got hit with the truth. 🤣
Lol same here. I've done that before and it isn't something you forget
Just curious. I am considering this lift. What do you think of the CV Angles after the lift? Super curious. And ready lift suggest not using 4 wheel drive auto mode? Any comment?
I think it's auto 4 Hi you're not allowed to use. Just because it causes more vibration. You can use 4 HI when needed just not all the time. Is what I was told.
Nice I finally did my lift. I went with a 6" lift on my 03 Silverado it looks better now. It's great following you aloha.
I was dying when the balloon popped.🤣 He was talking about the truck then you hear a loud pop in the background. Then just casually turn around and the look on his face was priceless. 🤣🤣🤣
If you look @ 13:10 BEFORE you installed the lift and took it to Firestone, the fender scratch is plain as day.
On a Trail Boss the rear sits 1 and a half inches higher in the rear so a 2 inch lift in the front would make it nose high by a half inch
I had a bad experience at my local Firestone a few years ago, I will never go back. They are not honest.
Hey I have a question hoping you can answer I have the 19 trailboss I’ve recently installed the 2” ready lift kit and cut out and removed bracket for turning front wheels , now my question is will LT 315/70/R18 fit ? I purchased them on a set of 5lug rims and don’t wanna pay to have them installed on my rims if it’s a waste of time ? Previous owner says they are 36” but what I’ve researched they are 35.4” Toyo M/T open country please help
I absolutely understand the frustration with taking vehicles to shops, especially chain shops! Nothing makes me angrier than getting my vehicles back worse than it went in! Along with the dirt and grime on door handles and the steering wheel.
A couple things I have to totally agree with you on..
1st is you are 100% correct when you called that loaded strut a time bomb 😄 second it the way they did on returning your tuck is unacceptable.. and if
you can do work on your truck without so much as a scratch... and they have the nerve to call themselves PROFESSIONALS, IF ONE OF MY GUYS WOULD EVER
DO THAT, he'll be sweeping floors for the ext three months at floor sweepers pay.
But more importantly let us know about the handling of the truck after you've finished.. as i have the same trunk.
Howzit Hawaiian. There are 0 issues with the stockies right? Doing my build in pieces so just wanna make sure i dont need spacers or something
Stock wheel and tires fit just fine without any spacers.
can’t wait for the new tires & rims setup 😍 thank you so much man for inspiring me to do all what I did so far on my GMC Sierra - big fan for ever 🤟
Mahalo for the support! Thanks for watching
work on my own stuff for same reason
Firestone and Pep Boys are a nightmare to deal with - never take your truck there for service
HUGE fan of your videos. My 2021 trailboss Thanks you. Not a lot of youtubers go into great hands on detail for this truck. Keep up the good work! - Angleton Tx
Thanks for watching!
Nice. I just had the 4inch Ready lift installed on a 17 Silverado 1500. I’ll give this kit a shot if I end up upgrading to a 19 or 20.
Been waiting for this! Let’s go! Love my readylift!
PS: I saw that carbon fiber wrap on the strut spacers. 🤣🤣
hahaha I knew someone would! Good eye
@@LonestarHawaiian it’s the little things…. 😎😎
Adding the readylift kit how’s the ride quality? Is it stiff? Better? Thinking about getting a lift kit for my truck but I have a concerns..
Firestone is absolutely trash. They’re on every military base and they nuked my 350z and put half of my spark plug wires on so the engine was running on 3 cylinders
I have exactly the same truck! Too bad U don’t offer services; I live in Michigan and would travel to Texas and pay U to install this lift. I simply don’t have the tools or experience.
Enjoy your videos, been watching for a while now. As someone with a regular job (just started my own detailing business) and am considering to start up a UA-cam channel on the side - it got me curious to what your day job is.
Not to sounds creepy but I stumbled across your LinkedIn account and actually used to work for the same company as an RSR! Worked as a summer student, was offered to transition to DSL when I graduate my business degree but turned it down for the detailing gig.
Right on brother. Spent a lot of time on a bulk 24 route, and just been working my way up through the system. It's very demanding. Most of my editing and YT work happens late at night and early AMs. If you have your own detailing business, there is your platform! I'd say go for it. Just have to start and do your best to stay consistent. Content will be rough at first, but you start finding your "way" of making the content your own as you go.
Well brother I hope you went and got the manager and showed him what they did to your truck!! Man scratching your wheels and your bumper and grime on your steering wheel that's not good.
They need to pay for your damage!
And as for that crazy goomer you don't like my granddaughter cannot stop watching those videos; I have to give her my phone to watch that guy or she will throws a fit!!!
Been waiting for the new vid
Wait so you don’t need to add the 2 inches in the back? Just the front ones
After I did the front it was perfectly level with the rear so I did not install the rear blocks
I’ve had the same issues with Firestone trying to get my silverado aligned after 6 BDS inch lift. They told me with lifted trucks it’s to difficult for there rack 🙄
Discount Tire is my go to, way better than Firestone IMO
Love your videos bro! Did you have any issues getting the plastic wiring harness retainer above the driver side strut to go back into place? Just had my ready lift sst installed and notice the wiring harness just resting on top of the strut not attached to anything.
Did the same with my 19 TB and left the blocks for the rear off. Leveled the truck.
Are there different shocks that will fit with this kit? Don’t like the ranchos and will be getting this exact ready lift setup.
I haven't been to Firestone since the 1990s didn't have a bad experience but just didn't like how they do things. I have never been back since
Hi watch a lot of your videos and enjoy the upgrades,
But I noticed around 11:40 time on the video no scratch to the bumper then around 12:46 you started using the pry bar. Then right around about the time the Ballon popped 13:10 you have the scratch on the bumper.
I Guess you didn't notice you scratched your own bumper:(
A i have questions can you run that sst level kit with the trail boss 18 inch wheel and factory tire lt 2 75 65 r 18 tire ? With out spacers
Firestone in my town is complete garbage I had a customer go there and they messed up a brand new wheel so bad it wasn’t fixable!!
Firestone is the worst! Fortunately I have never used them for personal, I found out how bad they were, dealing with them at work
I can't stand when I have to take one of my vehicles to get worked on! There is no respect and no one takes pride in their work. New BMW 440! Handle got all scratched to heck and rear fender scratched just for some tinted windows.
Also FYI you can rent a spring compressor from autozone and advanced auto. Be brave, diy.
My man said it can handle up to a 6.0l diesel that means it basically useless for diesels today maybe the 5.9 cummins but 6.0 powerstokes have much bigger problem then dead batteries
Gotta love Chevy's square wells. If you had a Ram, then you don't trim😂😂
Is it necessary to install CV Axle extended? Or is the OEM enough?
Hey great job. I like the source of info on UA-cam. If I May offer a tip : when removing the front cv Axl on anything and the wheel spins while trying to remove the nut- if no one can press the brake holding it in place, you can put a screwdriver through the view space on the caliper into the vents on the brake disk holding everything in place so you can remove the axl nut.
I stopped going to Firestone shops a LONG time ago for similar reasons. They just either don't care or don't know what they are doing. I only take my truck to my local GMC service department when I can't do something myself. They've always been fantastic.
Hi. I'm in New Zealand, how much for the charger. American pricing is ok. I like your show,
Hope you adjusted the headlights
FOR REAL! Just think of the oncoming ZL1s your wife will blind if you don't. :) Please do adjust!
Already on it! lol It was shining to the SKY
Ya fuck I hate when they damage and dirty your truck Drives me nuts ✌️🇨🇦
Firestone is the worst, they aligned my Silverado and the steering wheel was crooked so they must have made all adjustments to one wheel smh.
It's not even a 2 inch spacer on your older silverado surprisingly, I measured mine when I had that lift
Good job! I like lifting. You have lot's of knowlige about mechanics, that's good! Congs, nice job
I’m a lot like you on wanting my own shop with a tire machine balancer and alignment system. I really don’t like other people touching my truck. Especially Firestone or any of the other franchise shops
Did you have any trouble with the upper control arm rubbing the inside area of the tire?
Good morning,
You seem to be one of the most thorough people on here and don’t seem to be here just for a buck you take pride in everything I’ve seen you do. You did the ready lift 2” front only which only made sense, I’ve done a ton of research on this lift and it’s literally a coin toss everyone loves the way it looks it does the truck complete justice. But, there’s so many negative comments in forums about CV joints ball joints and tie Rod issues. Can you please let me know your thoughts on these issues and how’s your front end holding up? I greatly appreciate your honest opinion!
I've heard the samething on Trail boss form! Curious to know? I also talked to a shop here in Southern California called Shock Surplus and they said the same thing about this SST lift kit. They told me that this lift has to much angle an over time CV joints pops of the axel and causes problems. More likely to happen under more extreme conditions when you need your truck working the best.
I have a question??? The tailboss comes with a factory lift right. Ready lift sells a 2"kit with a UCA. Rough country sells a 4"kit without a UCA. Is the UCA needed or what? If I add that to the rough country kit will it be 6". I'm confused.
The TB comes with a 2 in front lift on it from factory. With about 1.5 rake, meaning back sits higher. So this kit lifts to front and back 2 inches. Meaning if you install both back will still sit 2 inches higher. If you leave the back alone and only do the front. This will be more or less a leveling kit with extra parts, lol. But there has been some discussion on TB forums recently with people saying this lift is causing the CV joint to snap off the axel and other issues. So I'd do some more research and call manufacturers and talk to the technical support guys.
Hey sir, do you recommend just lifting the front of the truck so it levels out?
The balloon pop!!! LMFAO!!!!! His face. lol ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Did you have to install a differential drop kit after lifting the front?
Pretty sure if you put it in 4wd you don’t have to have anyone press the brakes
Wow that’s brutal. Terrible service can’t believe they left the sensors on like 🤣wow
Hey bro! What part of Texas are you at? I’m from Hawaii as well
What kind of camera do you use? Show the complete set up please.
Great video! What size tires were you running pre level kit?
Found out years ago Firestone can't even fix a flat and Walmart can't change oil
yeaaaaaaaah i even do my own alignments for that reason lol
Hey brother I don't know how well the fitment of the new wheels to be but I hope you don't haft to do any triming cause when you turn your truck while you drive they may scuff, so I guess be a lil mindful of that cause I had to trim my 06 Duramax I had a 4inch Lift with 37x10.5x20 tires on it but that truck is long gone though for about 3yrs now.
I'm pretty sure i'm going to have to trim a bit... gonna find out soon.
I'll never get rid of my jumper cables. Call me old fashioned.
Got my 2021 Silverado RST Z71 2 months ago, now has 2300 miles and already got my first CEL. Dealership hasn’t been able to officially diagnose it yet due to staff shortages but got my onstar notification saying there was a problem with engine/transmission. 2 days later and the CEL is off and the truck runs normal compared to a jolting feeling before, while decelerating to a stop. So confused but hopefully I can get a diagnosis tomorrow at my follow up appointment.
Sorry to hear that! I knew someone that has a similar issue and they took it it to get "reprogrammed" ... whatever fix that is.
Does adding that size tire and wheel add a lot of noise or vibration?
I wanna see the angle on your CV axles after the lift.
I'll do a clip in the next upload 👍🏽
Awesome video! Firestone is absolute garbage 🗑️
Should of replaced the shitty shocks that come with factory
I bought a XXL socket set from harbor freight and it came with a breaker bar and lifetime warranty, I think it was $40.00
I need to make another trip over there!
You were so calm about that damage. I would have lost my cool for sure!
Just got the same lift put on my 2020 Trail Boss! Feels great. Also followed your lead and slapped on the Pulsar, Intake, and AFE muff delete! It's like having a new truck.
So just to confirm, you only need to put the lift in the front and not the back? I’m a bit confused.. so it’ll still be even if you don’t put the lift in the back?
Love the video man!!! I hate when people can screw up something that you take pride in. Got my 35s to fit on my Silverado. Took out the front mudflap bracket and tied back the felt liner. Clean look and no rubbing
Brah hawaiian I would lose um if they did that to my truck, they lucky u not from waianae lol
😂😂😂the best.
Thanks for this man! I have a ‘21 trail boss I’ve been wanting to lift with this exact kit, been watching all of the videos on yours for some inspiration, appreciate it
🤙🏽🤙🏽
So if I lift "19 RST " I still keep my warranty??
@@t-paingetmoney2787 depends on how much of a lift you install and components that are involved
Beautiful truck man. You plan on regearing? How’s she handle on long road trips
Does great on 35s, 10spd makes up for the size pretty well. I think anything beyond 35s would be miserable without re-gearing
I just saw where your storing your QuickJacks, very nice. I just had my garage floor professionally coated and it's amazing, I have some hard plastic pieces for the bottom of my Quick Jacks so they slide really easy and don't scratch the floor. Take care bud.
I need to get some sliders for the bottom... thanks for watching!
Question: readylift site says that Auto 4 HI feature is not recommended. You think there is way to use the lift and still be able to use the Auto 4 HI feature
Its because this lift increase the angle and puts stress of the CV joint and CV joint will snap. When looking for a lift look for a kit that includes the CV bracket that corrects the angle. Usually these kits cost double what this kit cost. Good luck 👍🏼
i just found your channel today. and bro i love your videos. you are doing to your truck what i want to do to my 21 silverado. just that its not a trail boss or 4x4. but still want to do those upgrades. i found your channel by looking up light bar ideas and you were the first that came up. ive already watched 5 of your videos. they have been the best so far. very detailed. keep it up man. new subscriber here.
I appreciate it! Welcome to the channel brother. Non-4x4s are great for some long travel suspension... just saying 🧐 Thanks for watching 🤙🏽🤙🏽
I would of been pissed 😡 and mine is just a 2010
Great video 👍 let's go Brandon
Any problems with the cv angle?
Bro, I hope they fix your bumper! I'd be extremely pissed. You handled it well (on camera)
it buffed off so were good there. Wheels are pretty torn up from the alignment sensors though... just hate when people don't care about other people's property.
4WD provides a whole new level of frustration doing the front lift. How are your cv angles after this?
The angles aren't too severe and don't show any signs of wear yet.
since you were only needing a front end alignment, why not go to the local Chevy dealer? its less than $100 and you don’t get free grease on your leather wrapped steering wheel. NEVER take your beautiful rig to those untrained hacks.All they are there is to rid you of your hard earned money and blow smoke up your kazoo.
the free grease is always a pleasant surprise... not making that mistake twice. The Hawaii shops always took care of my stuff, not the same here unfortunately.
@@LonestarHawaiian I think you are spot on about getting your own equipment. Its like they say, if you want the job done right, do it yourself. Have you thought about installing a pneumatic air system so you can lose the throwing star? It would save time taking your wheels on & off plus airing up the 16 tires you own.
Keep up the videos I love this channel 👍🏽 trail boss looks so good
Finally whooooo!
Good to see the world’s greatest cameraman ended that union strike and is back to work.
Minimum wage hikes gonna put me under…
I would be so pissed about the terrible service from FS.
Can’t wait to see the 35’s. Set up looks sweet
Ditto. I'm dying to get these on there!
I remember when my camera man was like this LOL. He is now 15..... I can't believe those guys did you that way! I have very few shops that I will take my stuff to and for my wheels, tires, and alignment I go to a little shop up here that also works on very high end wheels and tires off of lambo's etc so I know they do it right.
When you find a good shop... never leave lol. Learning the hard way.
@@LonestarHawaiian Unfortunately right.
I am exited to see them wheels on. Thanks for sharing the process.
You should make them pay for restoration of it
Bro, still can't believe you almost got crushed! Thank God you're ok.
Learning the hard way. lol always using jack stands now 😁
Spring compressor brand model?
