Hello, I have a 2009 2500 hd, such a stiff ride. I am looking into a cognito leveling kit sulastic shackles, steering dampener, bilsten 5100's all around. will I be happy with the 3k I dumped into it?:help also cognito upper control arm

 

[blackdeath]

ur unhappy with ur stock ride on ur chevy ,? wow , lowering it will make it softer. i think u should get a car

 

[stevelee5]

Thankyou, black death

I know there is a price to pay in here but im willing to wade through the muck to get some real help thanks.:rockin

 

[blackdeath]

it is real help , its a truck , lifting it WILL NOT MAKE it nicer ride,

 

[blackdeath]

turning up the keys is turning up the keys.the shackles may help the rear but ur making the front stiffer. so yea.

 

[stevelee5]

not lifting it

leveling it, i never use it for its intended purpose, so im trying desperately to just get a little of the harshness out, its always an empty ride

 

[blackdeath]

yes that is lifting it, what do u think ur doing to level it ,hopes and dreams , all the the cognito kit does is fix ur bj angle , u still have to crank the keys and that equals lifting

 

[blackdeath]

id say put the shackles in and maybe shocks . cause if ur not happy with it now , u wont be after leveling it

 

[stevelee5]

ok

i was a little concerned that the bilstine's will make it even stiffer

 

[blackdeath]

ive had no complaints on customers truck with them , but evryone is different , like i said if u dont like these trucks ride in stock for i would go step by step ,first the shackles and see , i promise u ,you will not like leveling it, it will feel like a tank to u

that stupid only lets u do what they are designed to do , un less he doesnt care about having a new truck with a light on all the time ,

I thought u were callin me stupid for a second! I'm guessin they got the tps bs? I didnt think bout that. Can't your rip them buggers out?

 

[blackdeath]

no im sorry if i cam across that way , i do that , the dealer may be able to change the psi it will accept but u CANNOT TAKE THE LIGHT OUT

 

[B Rack]

No worries.


No kiddin, so what do you do with your aftermarket wheels? Or do you just kill the thrown code?

take out the torsion bar bolts!

 

[B Rack]

To the OP, I'd say drop your psi by a large amount and see if it is worth maybe doing a recalibration from the dealer. If not just fill them back up the light should go off after a bit.

I run my copper stt's at 40 front 35 rear.

assuming you have stock tires, wheels...

take out the t-bar bolts, drive it down a bumpy road and see how that handles for you

if things are okay, get an alignment and BE HAPPY
