    99 obs k1500 suburban lift....

    I wanna lift my suburban nothing crazy. Kinda wanna stay with my 285/75/16s maybe go to a 315/75/16 at most. I feel like a 6 inch is too much. Not just real enthused about keys. And keep seeing alignment issues with the rough country 3 inch kit. Body lift is a no go for me. Any suggestions?

    Stupid computer question

    I have a tune and also have a misfire that has been chased for a while. it's only at light throttle. everything has been replaced from the heads up and it's still missing.

    Mpg with 4.10s and 33s?

    Anyone have this combo mind posting their mpg, driving conditions, and transmission. Really want to do gears I have 3.42s now and with mods it's far from gutless but I think I can get better mpg with at least 3.73s
