    Ok. Sorry in advance if this is in the wrong place.

    2015 DCSB 4x4 Auto. I installed ADS coilovers, Camburg BJ UCAs, and Spidertrax up front, and A Wheelers 5-pack and 5100's out back with 255/85 16 ST Maxx on stock OR wheels on all four corners. Love the lift and the ride. Here are the issues:

    1) the trans is struggling to up shift to 5th after highway acceleration, and feels sluggish while shifting through all gears.

    2) after the alignment I noticed I'm only getting rubbing on my ds, and the ds wheel looks like it's positioned about 1-2" further towards the rear of the truck than the ps wheel, which appears perfectly centered in the wheel well. Alignment numbers were within spec, except castor, which I requested to be bumped up to help clear the 33's.

    Anyone else experiencing these issues? What'd you do to fix them?

    For #1, you have to regear or deal with the power loss.

    It's not a power loss, it's the tranny shifting sluggish, and not upshifting into 5th.
