  1. Not structural mods. Just removed the stock torsions, UCA, LCA and added a gusset to the upper shock mount. The kit is designed to be removable back to stock.
  2. Probably not much in ride quality empty, but the 2.5s seem to have better control loaded or towing.
  3. Sorry for the late reply. The ride is stiffer than the stock marshmallow but nothing compared to cranked torsion. The freeway expansion joints on LA freeways aren't noticeable anymore. It also feels like the suspension moves more which creates a better ride too.
  4. She's an old heavy pig. Here's a picture on the lake. It takes bit to get her moving. Here's a video of the last card stop at Desert storm in 14. This was with a bit different Whipple setup. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Mines a 2500 but I have just at 1" showing. On the 3" leveling kit. Mine is about dead nuts level with stock rear springs. BDS recommends 3/4". Did you leave the rear block in? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Got to tow my tub home today. I almost forgot it was behind the truck;) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Does anybody know if this is an issues on the 2500HD Duramax? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Thanks guys. I also installed the 2.5 piggyback rears and they were an improvement over the 2.0s but nothing like the change in the front. I think the only way to really improve the back would be to remove my airbags (I only run them at 5lbs unloaded) and swap to a softer spring but this would suck when towing my 15k trailer. I guess that's the trade off if you still want to actually use the truck as a 3/4 ton. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Nick Scovel from L5Ps on FB hooked me up with a great deal on the kit and install. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Here are a few more from this afternoon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. I just had the BDS kit installed over the weekend and I thought the HD crew may be interested in seeing it. Today was the first day with some seat time and I have to say this is kit is really nice. I replaced the Cognito stage 3 kit that I had before. My only complaint with the stage 3 kit was that the ride was rough with the truck leveled and the UCAs were almost on the frame stops. That and the fact that the UCAs wore out quickly on my truck for some reason. The CO kit has a much more plush ride at the same height and looks to have more suspension travel too because there is about 3/4-1" between the UCAs and frame stops. I'll get a few more pictures later today or tomorrow with more detail. Here's a picture of the driver's side for now. I running the same Goodyear tires I had with the Cognito kit. 285/60/20, but will probably go with Nitto ridge grapler 295/60/20 next. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Just finished the Cognito leveling kit, wheels, tires, retrax, and air bags. Amp says 5-6 months until the steps are available. It's almost dark but figured I'd snap a couple pix and post them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Traded in this on Wednesday And picked this up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Does anybody know if this is also available for the silverados or just the sierras at this point? I'll called my Chevy dealer today and they had no info. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Here are a couple of it working. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Here are a few I snapped today. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. All terrain Adventure Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. They are just remote res, not coilover. I wish somebody made them for the 2500. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Can anybody confirm if the GM bracket will work on a Silverado? I called Rigid and they didn't have an answer. I was also wondering if anybody has installed the 6" bars in the plastic filler piece in the center of the bumper. My thought is to do the pods in the fog locations and 6" in the filler piece.

  20. I think it has to do with the DEF tank on the pass side. The steps can't tuck under like the non def trucks
  21. Amp research. I had them installed at the dealer when I bought it. They gave me credit for the stock steps. I like them because they half way hide the DEF tank. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Leveled w stock 20s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. SCV? I'm in Castaic. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Correct. Really just the sidewall. I think the wheels are 5.5 bs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. Just snapped another from the front. I didn't want the wheels as close as I could to flush. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
