Hello all.
I've got a 2017 Silverado 2wd on the stock 20" wheels. I am looking to put a mild lift on it just to raise it a bit and put slightly beefier tires. This is going to be mainly for looks. I have not and do not intend to take the truck offroading. I DO intend to tow a travel trailer with this truck though so I'd like something that won't interfere with tow capacity.
Anyway, I am currently looking at the Eibach Pro-Truck Lift System that should give me the ride quality and the look I am after. My questions are the following:
I am looking installing 2.25" rear blocks from Readylift. Do you guys find this to be a good combo for the Eibachs?
I have read that for longevity's sake and since parts are already coming off I may as well replace the UCAs and endlinks while I'm at it. What are some good UCA's I should be looking at? I've seen Cognito, Kryptonite and Rough Country mentioned here.
I was going to go ahead and replace the endlinks while I was at it too and decided on the Moogs endlinks - this good?
I was thinking of ordering everything online as I get a military discount for a lot of these places and just having a shop do the install. Is that a smart move? Do you guys have a reasonable estimate for labor I should expect or is that too dependent on location?
Thanks in advance for the help. I was previously in the import car scene before my Chevy so lifting is a bit foreign to me.
