Buying a truck with fender flares installed by the previous owner. Paint was scratched up behind the fenders because the previous owner didn’t put something behind the flares to protect the paint. Never. Again. F*** fender flares
Thinking that "all terrain" tires meant "all terrain". Ran mud tires ever since. Lol. Maybe in one of your next videos you could cover the different kind of trimming for tires.... from minor valance to norcal.
I have a 2014 are strut spacers known to come loose for a while now theirs a knocking noise coming from driver side front absolutely can't find it it's not a wheel bearing or ball joint no shaking or viberation any help would be greatly appreciated
An old guy I worked under for my apprenticeship year ago gave me the best advice I've ever heard.. " there's nothing more expensive than being cheap. " buy good shit the first time and exactly what you want or you'll be buying stuff repeatedly.
you can haul bulky, but not extremely heavy loads, like saws, couches, dirt bikes, etc. that's not really important though, people just like to get gatekeep shit for no reason.
Just like they’re show cars they’re show trucks. No need to insult another man for doing what he wants and how he in visions his or her perfect ride. There’s a word for that.....a hater. Just saying.
nightfall22 man grow some fucking balls, dude joked and said y’all look like disco balls rolling down the road. that’s it and it was funny. taking something like this that seriously has a word for it... a bitch. don’t act like the stereo type of guys with lifted trucks.
Guys, when putting a part into a truck or any vehicle. Do your research. Go to a truck meet. Ask people who have dealt with it. Figure out how it’s going to affect your truck, ride quality, gas mileage, post maintenance, will things wear and tear faster. Etc etc. Figure out everything that’s specific to your truck and the parts you’re looking to install. Before you go and spend money or send it to a shop to get done and then find out after the fact how your truck is going to react to a mod. Be smart guys and gals. Happy trucking. Good video guys!
I use my truck for hunting, driving through some mud (Colorado clay) and back and forth to work which includes sometimes driving out into loose soil on our farmers circles. A leveling kit and a set of 34x11 inch tires is enough for me :)
I went the cheeper way and got zone off-road instead of the much more expensive BDS and gave not regretted it. Went through both instructions and they were the same. Zone doesn't have lifetime warranty like BDS does but at less than half the price understandable. Plus I've never gotten warranty to work for me in aftermarket situations (love my zone off-road lift 2013 GMC 2500) do your research :)
Have Alex do a custom offsets video and fuller do a fitment Industries video, without them saying anything about it and just playing it off as a normal video
Don’t feel too bad! I just removed a leveling kit because I was fed up with the ride quality and not being able to fit ridiculous tires. I replaced the spacers with Bilstein 5100’s up front and in the rear. I now have more rake then I did before! 😂. Thousands invested while a few lessons were learned.
HOW COME YOU GUYS DON'T HAVE FORUM? It could be so helpful if people can share more detail about the truck and how they done it and maybe explain and show what they did to it.
@@CustomOffsetsTV well I am trying to wire front view camera to my 2017 silverado. And I wanted to see if anybody done it but I can't ask noone with out forum lol. I use cts2 edge as my front view camera monitor.
So after putting a lift kit i need an alignment after that i should be good?it was a stock truck adding bigger rims and tires and the lift kit i cant wait 😎i dont need to add bigger brakes or anything?
Just got the 2019 ram 1500 blackout sport with the 4 corner air suspension. Would I still be able to throw a suspension lift on it since it has the air bags? Also, would it need to be a specific type of lift? Don’t know a whole lot about suspensions, wheels, or tires so looking for any kind of information willing to provide.
Done with lifted trucks, I used to drive um out of the dealership right to the shop for a lift and rims/tires. No matter what I spent shit always broke and broke shit sucks.
That and not being able to reach into the truck to use it like a truck! Just trying to do engine Maintenace is a nightmare, having to either pull the front end into a muddy ditch, or deflate the front tires to the wheels and hope you can get them to reinflate afterwards. I only did a 3/2 lift and basically regret it, but love how it looks and love how higher lifts look even more, they are just completely impractical if you daily drive, or need to actually use the truck as a truck. A real lift makes a truck into a show piece.
I really hope y'all grow more and more and offer more things, like exhaust/performance parts. I love the way Custom Offsets operates. Way better than the other auto part sellers online. I don't like the American Trucks way of doing things where you just mumble some stuff into a camera and have no personality
I’m getting ready to start my build next week 98 Sierra k1500 4by4 if you guys want to get involved I’ve already got a 6” Rough country suspension lift brand new in box at home ready an want to do a lot more it be awesome to have y’all show my truck from start to finish
My mistake was not going with the height lift I wanted from the start. What I thought I wanted was not what I actually wanted after going to a few shows and seeing how small my lift ac to actually was compared to a 9”. I should of just watched CO videos instead of all these other RU-vidrs
Thanks so much for all the info...I did my first lift kit and 35x12.5 and knew it would fit due to all the info I received from yall and the manufacturer's...I knew how my truck was going to look from the gallery......will be posting in gallery this week to be a blessing to someone else
What I want to know is what is so cool about making your truck look like its taking a constant poop going down the road or pulling an invisible trailer? I JUST DO NOT GET IT. It looks DUMB, Ridiculous. Why? Why? Why?
I can't seem to get your web site to work for me 1st i have a Colorado zr2 which has a different frame then a standard Colorado I saw a vid you guys did on a supposed to be zr2, but it was not a Colorado zr2 it looked like someone had changed the sticker on the bed. A zr2 has a distinctive front end and multi Matic shocks. I put a 2-inch level on the front, and it made the truck level, so what I want to know is will 33s fit without rubbing and will a 1 1/2-wheel spacer work and do you have that size spacer for the zr2 please make sure it for a zr2 and not a reg Colorado or a Z71.the zr2 is 3 inches wider. please do your homework before i order from you I don't like the hassle of returns
So your basically only concerned with looks and don’t tell your customers anything about what offset is or the extra strain it puts on their parts. If any of them were to ever, I don’t know take their lifted truck off roading. Nah, you don’t care about that you just want to look good picking up your bitch with their Armani purse and pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks. Any dude that listens to this guy should thank their boyfriend for pointing them in the right direction. I apologize for the gay reference but come on even the manly gay guys get this one...
Thats like asking for Ridgeline lift kits... nissan is new in large trucks and they fall short of the BIG-3 so b4 you buy a truck look for aftermarket products. Also toyota has been around since WWII... nissan mainly does cars , and are struggling on the brink of bankruptcy due to previous CEO's.. Horsepower Torque Durability Something nissan trucks lack. Theirs a reason you dont see them in rural America, parts are scarce and too expensive... hope this helps... Get A 🐏
I have a 7in lift.. but I lost all my turn when I got the lift.. I’m trying to see what I need to change to get my turn back..? I have to back up in the street to make U turns 🤦🏾♂️
I have a 2016 Chevy Colorado LT crew cab I want to put a lift kit on it the company where I live says they have a 5 inch Pro Comp lift kit my question is would that be a good one to put on my truck or do you suggest another oh by the way they want to charge me $3,000 to put it on.
That you get what you pay for is not always true I have see bds lifts on 90s chevy trucks that are garbage compared to a rough country. bent steering arms and high cv angles that brake all the time so do your research the lift must drop everything back to factory settings or it must make up for it.
I got a 2017 silverado and i put a 2.5 level kit but i think it needs at least a 3 inch in front. There is still a slight rake in front ( HATE THE RAKE)
Hey Fuller, I'm really wanted to do a 4" suspension lift on my 2005 Nissan Frontier. Just like in the video towards the end you talked about having that aggressive look without having that huge lift and thats what I'm going for. I want a decent lift with still a good ride but in a 4" so what would you recommend? Thanks!
You know fuller is not here right fam?! However Rough Country has a decently priced lift that also is nice quality wise! --> www.customwheeloffset.com/store/suspension?year=2005&make=Nissan&model=Frontier&drive=4WD
i knew about my mistake about doing a level on a ram (Ball Joints) just coil overs cause i wanted a bigger wheels and tires but i did it temporally cause i knew wanted to save money for a proper lift as i did other mods
Man I really wish you guys considered the real off-roaders. I know you guys cater to the show truck guys but if you acknowledged us as well you can bring more traffic in your channel and website. Sure you sell smaller wheels but all videos help out the “looks” guy but no information is shared for the overlander.
Always liked and wanted your wheels on my Tundra. Unfortunately, I'm not rich. Your wheels made of 200 year old technology recycled metal are just WAAAAAAAAAAAY too overpriced.
ive watched many of your videos because lets face it generally no one knows everything.. What Im trying to get a grasp on is, what does rough country not provide that makes the ride quality not as advertised " maintains factory ride quality"..Also on the opposite end of the spectrum McGaughys advertises a true 7" lift and states no other lift holds true measurement. In the past i always just bought the best bang for the buck, but now being in a 15 duramax that rides like a cadillac, i dont want to lose much if any of the ride quality
Please send an email to info@customoffsets.com they should be able to help you find a good lift kit for your truck and also give you some insight on Rough Country as well!
Bowtie Guy86 RC drop brackets only drop the control arm pivot points 4 to 5 inches. McGaughys actually drops the pivot points 7 inches. That’s a basic explanation, there’s alot more to it.
Send an email to info@customoffsets.com and they should be able to help you figure out which kit looks best on your truck! Or you can also take a look on our website at our available suspension kits here! customoffsets.com/suspension
McGaughy's makes an awesome kit for that year model. Adjustable 7-9 inch that can sit comfortably on tires from 33" all the way to 37" tall. Also has some customization to add features and bling for some added cash, but the basic kit will get the job done for under 1500 bucks. Great kit.
What's everyone's opinion on the pro comp lift kits? I got the six inch Pro Comp lift kit so far I'm happy just curious what everyone else's opinion is on that specially. I really appreciate I got it on a 2007 Chevy Silverado 1500 4 x 4 newer body style with 20 by 10 rims and 33s tires about to get 35s
also I had a question I have couple of Dodge Ram 1500 Sports but my 04 has all the performance packages but I wanted to put fender flares that's stick extremely close to the truck I believe there about three quarters of an inch but I like when the tire sits out a little bit do you think I should go with a 1-inch spacer or something a little bit bigger stock rims but Cooper Tires they're a little bit bigger than Factory 275/60R20 so if you look at the truck now the tires stick out very little when I put the fender flare on at three quarters of an inch if you go to make the tires sit under so should I go in an inch or inch and a half spacer
If youre not wanting to trim the studs you would atleast have to do a 1.75" spacer. But if you dont mind trimming then the choice is yours. Check out our gallery on our website and see what other people are running on theirs! customoffsets.com/gallery
see those rims on the white Silverado now those are some nice rims I think one of the last videos I was complaining about everybody with the black rims that too many people now have the black rims they look dirty so quick I like a nice Chrome rim with maybe a nice black lip are all Chrome I didn't think when the rim is a flatter black they are dirty if you go with a black chrome it's a little better but I like that Chrome with the black lip
2018 f150 4x4. the dealership put Fox 2in Coilovers in the Front and matching shocks in the rear, to level the truck and be able to put 35 inch tall tires. Looks nice! But seems to be nose high for some reason? Any guesses why?
