  1. Can these be used in conjunction with a Zone 4.5" suspension lift, to get more lift out of it without entirely replacing the kit? Thanks!
  2. Anyone have any popping/clunk come from the front of their truck after their lift? I've had the shop check everything and all bolts/connections/linkages related to the suspension and diff drop are all tight. Wheels as well. They recommended having the body mounts checked, since Silverados can have problems with them? They also said it could be driveline slack. Going to have it looked at during it's oilchange coming up, but figured I would see if anyone here has any thoughts.
  3. I had my 4.5in Zone lift installed approximately 1,000 miles ago and I noticed within the last week that when I press the brakes, there is a sensation in the floorboard of something moving/shifting and a pop/clunk sound from under near the front. I took it into the shop that did the lift (great shop with countless of installs under their belt) and they checked everything. They said every bolt/connection that is part of the lift is tight, everything is snug, all the wheel bolts are tight, and they cannot find any reason for it to be making the noise/feeling (they were able to replicate it though). I googled the issue and some one reported it on a 2014 or 2015 and stated it was a loose diff drop bracket, but that seems to be ruled out for my truck. Any ideas what this could be? The shop thinks it COULD be body mounts as the newer silverados have had problems with the occasionally (their claim). I also thought it may be some sort of drive-line slack with the transmission/transfer case, such as rotational slack which is "caught up" after a downshift when slowing. I recall on my Camaro there was a slight amount of slack in the rear differential which would clank when getting back on the throttle after slowing. Any thoughts?
  4. Method Racing "Standards", 20x9, +18mm offset BFG AT KO2 285/65R20 Really haven't had any rubbing yet at all. I *thought* there was a little when backing out of a spot yesterday at full lock but it may have just been the road. No signs of it anywhere.
  5. Got mine back yesterday. Zone 4.5" Lift Method Racing "Standards", 20x9, +18mm offset BFG AT KO2 285/65R20 Really haven't had any rubbing yet at all. I *thought* there was a little when backing out of a spot yesterday at full lock but it may have just been the road. No signs of it anywhere.
  6. As some one else said, the 6-piston Brembo kit for the Camaro was around 3 grand. However, I came from the Camaro forums since I used to own a 2013 Camaro 2SS. There was a thread over at the Camaro5 forums where a few guys got 6piston kits for substantially less. I will try to find it and post it later tonight when I get home. Basically, a guy purchased everything through amazon. He used the original equipment part numbers for the CTS-V 6 piston calipers. They do not say Brembo on them at all, but they are manufactured for the CTS-V by Brembo. He then got ACDelco calipers and pads to go with them. I think he had to also get new lines or a line extension? All in all, it came out to just over $1,000 for 6 piston front brakes. The install took him an hour or 2 in his drive, not counting bleeding the brakes.
  7. I've got the Zone 4.5" lift on order, and am sure that it is the size and stance I want. But if I wanted to increase the height in the future, is there a way to easily upgrade from the 4.5 to the 6.5in? Would it just be a larger block and drop for the front that re-uses all the other parts? Or would an entire new kit be needed?
