Get some Rebel/Off Road Group rear springs and a 1" spacer.

Currently at about 25k on my non-additive AMSOIL 75W-140 in the rear diff, no issues. Will change it again at 100k miles (~23k to go). For everything other than engine oil I've used AMSOIL for the last 12 years with no problems.

My Timber Grove bags lifted the rear 0.5" even at 5 psi so technically I'll be the same on the rears after I put the 0.5" spacer back in. Overall 3" front, 2" rear lift I like having just a bit of rake as it takes away the appearance of being nose high. With how round the front of these trucks...

I know this is the Stage 2R post, but I finally got my Stage 2 on last week. Drove it for about 150 miles now, much better than 77k mile OEM shocks. Before 0 Miles 150 Miles Wanted Driver Front 39.75 41.5 40.25 40 Pass Front 40 41.5 40.75 40 Driver Rear 41 42 40.5 41 Pass Rear 41.25...

The first part of the answer is that the higher trims, aka more expensive trucks, have those options. They want to force you into spending more money. The second part of the answer is that they're not required to put them into the trucks, so they're not going to do it.

Don't know about gas mileage comparison as I haven't had a 2500, but I know when loaded pretty heavy the 1500 loses a bit. You're also not going to see the estimated MPG on the window sticker. My Rebel averages 16.5 in the summer and 15.5 in the winter. Never been close to the window sticker...

Most everyone has said get a 2500, which I agree with, but no one answered a key part of your original question. There is nothing you can do to your truck, once it's manufactured, to INCREASE payload rating. Everything you do to it will only DECREASE payload by adding more weight to your truck...

I have about the same clearance as Cheyenne with Eibach Stage 2, 295/70R18 tires, 18x9 0 offset wheels, and RC UCA's. About an inch or so.

Yes just on the frame. A little forward from center between the two wheels. One thing to note with the Quick Jack is it moves forward as it lifts, so where it's sitting on the ground will not match where it hits the frame.

Just got mine out today to do my suspension and figured I'd play with the lift blocks. I have the two sets of rectangle rubber blocks plus the truck lift posts. With the lift posts the tires on my truck sit 6.5" off the ground. Lifting them back onto the studs is not fun. The largest rubber...

The event that caused the code could have gone away, but the code should still be stored in the system. It just won't be active.

Oh yeah no worries on missing it. I know he posts quite a bit. I bought straight from Eibach, and unfortunately their prices have gone up (whose haven't?). All good, still getting a solid suspension setup.

Man... NOW you say forum member pricing...

Can it pull it? Yeah. Is it above your door sticker and not legal (unsafe operation)? Yeah. Don't forget your WDH also will weigh around 100 pounds, so that reduces your payload to 750 or so. Top trim trucks unfortunately aren't towing or hauling trucks, they're luxury vehicles.

Most of us run lower pressures. I run 48/40 on E rated tires, but yes I would not recommend running equal pressures front and rear. Back end will bounce all over the place.
