  1. Running the smaller wheel really makes the tires look huge. That big sidewall makes it look pretty tall. Awesome..!!
  2. I bought one of these, received it yesterday....it has all kinds of gouges in the paint...its a pos. !!
  3. Here's mine, not a trailboss but with the gm black grill and painted bumper.
  4. I changed mine from the icon stage one to the stage 4, giant difference than before. Rides really nice at 3-3.5 inches up front. The 2.5 coilovers with the 2.5 rear shocks makes a big difference..!! I even thought of the 4 inch zone for the cross members, that would fix the cv and lower control arm angles. So the bds kit with coilovers is probably the best way to go.
  5. These are from ami and they suck..! Were a pain in the ass, lots of trimming. Had to drill a hole to put a bolt thru both holes. The rough country are probably better..!
  6. In that pic it has the color matched center, the t-rex insert is the billet silver bars that fit on the fiins. Heres the black grill with the t-rex insert. Trying to get away from anything shiny like silver or chrome so I pulled it off.
  7. Here's a fron/side shot. The black center is more fitting with the black wheels i think....dunno...lol
  8. Here is how nice that eCOOLogical stuff fits.
  9. I'd buy the cover, I have it on my rear bumper center where I dented it. The eCOOLogical stuff is really nice and fits great..! Its a toss up between the gloss black or the painted I had before with the t-rex insert. Here is a pic of before, I removed the license plate too.
  10. It drives really well, i have the front shocks set at 4 and the rears at 3. Seems to drive on the pa roads pretty well.. The angles are ok and it seems to be good, im not sure of the long term effects tho. Its probably going to stay that way till early next year, im going to buy a zone 4 inch kit. Still going to use my icon parts with it. That will clean up the angles back to stock. Plus the westin hdx steps are coming off for a set of amps , they look alot cleaner.
  11. I drove it around for 2 weeks before aligning it, adjusted the coilovers a few times for it to sit where I want it. Here's the final outcome. This is with 35 12.50 20 bfg km3s on 20x9 trailboss replicas. They rub the larger gm mud flaps at full lock in reverse. A little about it....ts a 2019 custom, high country headlights swap, black gm grill, ami tow hook clevis mounts, westin hdx steps,, tinted corner lights, tinted mirror lights, ceramic tint, egr vent shades, gm larger mud flaps, gm rear wheel well liners, black exhaust tips and tailgate lettering. Coated in a few coats of adams graphene ceramic coating.
  12. On level ground, you can see the preload added.
  13. I installed an icon stage 1 kit earlier this year, seemed a little firm but felt more planted on the road. I called and they revalve them free within the 1st year. They suggested the cdcv reservoir with adjuster upgrade. A month ago I sent my coilovers back to get the reservoir with the compression adjuster. They arrived Monday at icon and were shipped back Thursday, not too bad.. Also picked up the tubular control arms with delta joint. The last piece to arrive was the rear 2.5 reservoir shocks with compression adjuster. So finally makes the complete stage 4. The front is set at 3-3.25 i think, just going off of measurements from the 2 inch i had. I put nut certs in the frame for the reservoir mounts. The control arms have caps on them to cover up the joint for the weather. The rear is a 2 inch block with the icon 2.5s. Only other piece i added is a set of different bump stops. Called sumosprings, helps with hauling upto 1500lbs in the bed so it doesn't sag plus for me I'd rather not have an airbag kit.
  14. Neither, its a gm gloss black grill center i bought on Facebook Market place. I have a color matched one too. I think the black breaks it up but doesn't look out of place like the whole black front-end.
  15. Its gloss black, I did the replica gloss black 20s and gloss black exhaust tips.
  16. I recently did the black grill center, it breaks the color up.
  17. Powder coated gloss black..!!...but I do have gloss black wheels and a gloss black grill center. I do think the color goes with whatever color theme. Like mines all shadow gray and gloss black.
  18. Rpugh country uca's and leveling kit sold..!
  19. I have a few items for sale. Rough country uca's 5k miles 275.00 2 inch rough country leveling kit 50.00 1 inch motofab lower spacer 25.00 1.5 block with u bolts 60.00 Icon dynamics 2.0 rear shocks for 0-2 inch lift. 150.00 All prices are shipped to the lower 48. Can send pics if needed.
  20. Black exhaust tips installed today, pretty easy to do. Remove the plastic steps in the corners of the bumper and you can get in with a ratchet. Smoked license plate cover, color matched tailgate handle cover( hard to tell in the pic).
  21. Installed pic.
  22. Coilovers came back, the added cdcv reservoir is really nice. The control arms with delta joint are way nicer than the rc arms. I adjusted it to 3 inch and put a 2 inch rear block. I ordered rear 2.5 reservoir with cdcv. It will now be a stage 4 complete kit. Removed the license plate and added the trail boss gloss black grill.
  23. I dont currently have em, fedex does and I should c them Thursday. At 3 inches of lift or 41 inches i had 5/8 of threads. I ended up backing the collar off further and added a moto fab lower 1/2 inch block that gave it an inch. It rode smoother instead of it being cranked.
  24. This a gmc..? On my chevy with 33s mine was 38 stock, on 35s now with a 3 inch its 41 1/4. That's from the ground to the fender lip.
  25. Make sure that shop you pick icon is ok with it so you don't void their so called warranty. Driver n passenger should be the same shock. To sell it without the spring is prob not worth it anyway, it's a regular eibach and probably an 80.00 spring.
