Ratchet strap the gear box up to the rear fender support and you can pull the pitman arm by yourself, I didn’t take the skid plate off either, it’s tight but swivel came in clutch with my Milwaukee high torque two bumps of the trigger and normally it pops no issue

@highaltitudetrucks Год назад

skid plate takes 30 seconds to remove and my snap on impact works great

PITMAN ARM REMOVAL READ THIS: I spent many hours trying to remove my pitman arm. Initially, i bought and tried to use the Schley tool (same as snap on) but couldn't get it on, tried using a jack to hold it up i just couldn't get clearance. Went online and saw thst other people were grinding into the arm then using an air hammer that DOES NOT WORK. This is what you need to do: A. Get a second set of hands, no way you can do this solo. B. The steering box needs to be moved slightly toward the passenger side then up as much as you can for the snap on / schley to fit. I wish i had this information before spending hours on grinding and hammering. Thanks for the video otherwise. Also guys pay close attention to the orientation of the tool when he puts it up. Also, my steering wheel was dead center before removing.

@highaltitudetrucks 11 дней назад

Hey Ron that's correct! start the video at 19:55 and we explain you have to remove the pitman arm nut first then the three gear box bolts and in the video the steering box is held up! our techs do it on a weekly basis by themselves! glad the video helped with your install!

@zmoney238 3 года назад

If I can’t get that pitman arm puller what other way could I get that free from the gear box? Thanks for the video it helped me out a lot.

@highaltitudetrucks 3 года назад

unfortunately that is the only way you can remove the pitman arm without damaging the gear box you could remove the gear box completely and it would make it easier to remove the pitman arm

@zmoney238 3 года назад

Thank you for the reply. I use a wide pickle fork and don’t think I cause any damage. 🤞. Thanks again for the video.

Is a 4’ lift better for suspension or level keys ok for suspension longevity? Also ride quality same on torsion keys or better on lift? Thanks best regards!

@highaltitudetrucks 2 года назад

that all depends on the quality or suspension parts you choose.

@Perez_at_CDKIA 4 года назад

Morning!!! Get video. Question 1 does Kryptonite sell 2 style keys for their kits? Cuz I knew GM had 2 torsion key designs on new trucks. Question 2 did u guys have to add caster to one side of truck. We’ve had a few 2020s we had to add caster cuz they pull to the right.

@highaltitudetrucks 4 года назад

Kryptonite only sells one style of key! this was our first 2020 so that is the first I am hearing about it! we get a caster split of -0.3 and the truck drives amazing

@mikef5507 Год назад

All newer GM trucks 11-current now have a negative camber spec with the updated alignment specs. I had 3 shops misalign my truck being none of them have the current software which fixes the ghost GM truck steering pull

@@highaltitudetrucks Any recalibration needed on trucks with the digital steering assist?

@mikef5507 Год назад

My steering is stupid tight like 1970’s K10 trucks with no power steering. Love it. I also tightened the steering wheel bushing screws as well to tighten the steering up. No one knows of that repair I spent 2 years finding it on RU-vid. It is a thing that plagues the 1500-3500hd GM trucks. You can throw all the steering parts at it and the wheel still is sloppy…. Open the top cover off the column and look for the two T30 (orT25 I can’t recall) screws on the rotating assembly and only turn them 1/16-1/8 turn at a time evenly until snug and don’t over tighten. It will tighten the wheel up internally. My buddy had steering columns replaced in his fleet trucks until I showed him the hidden trick and after checking the screws they were all loose and a new column only fixed the issue for a few thousand miles.

@johnkirkbride9750 3 года назад

Does this kit work on the 6.6 gas too? The reason why I ask you keep referring to the truck as a duramax!

Hi guys! i have one 2500 2020, and i lifted with a rough country lift kit 5 inches, so now the truck feels not stable at the front, like if take road with some angle truck try to pull to the lowest side of the road, and need to hold my steering wheel to the opposite side, if install this kryptonite ultimate front end package, what benefits i gain on driving? more stability? feels like more stronger steering?, can you gave some advice? thanks!

@highaltitudetrucks 4 года назад

hey peacock fine jewelry did you align your truck? sounds like more of an alignment problem! the kryptonite kit is amazing it makes your steering tighter and way stronger

@rossespinoza768 5 месяцев назад

@chrisc5574 it looks really good!! Nothing to crazy like a big lift but it looks good. I went with kryptonite because of the upper control arm ball joint grease fitting. They look good but more importantly it rides great. I even cranked the keys up a little bit with no problems

@rossespinoza768 5 месяцев назад

@chrisc5574 it sits perfectly level BTW sometimes it even looks like it might have a little rear rake the look I was going for

@318haze 3 года назад

Can you run the factory 20’s with a 37x12.50 with this kit? Or do you have to run a spacer?

@chubbzy24153 3 года назад

Look up suspensionmaxx leveling kits for these trucks. Comes with everything except upper control arms. But like you saw in this video it raised the front end more than specified and he had to lower it back down. No need for control arms unless you're bottomed out on the bump stops, and if you are, you're rear end will be squatted lower than the front......suspensionmaxx has videos on here. Check them out

@highaltitudetrucks 2 года назад

37" tires may be pushing it, it would probably rub while turning.

@mattdagger1480 3 года назад

“Best company there is”. Follows it up by having to beat the product into place and saying use spacers if needed. 😂🤦‍♂️

@highaltitudetrucks 3 года назад

It is the best 🤷🏻‍♂️ and the reason you have to hammer it in is because GM designed a shitty ass frame and not a single companies upper control arms fit perfect. Second Fox doesn’t design or anyone for that matter a proper length shock for leveled Duramaxs. The extenders help give you more down travel when you are cranking the torsion keys.
