  1. Both will keep the angles about stock. As stated it’s just different methods to attain the lift. IMO for 4” kits I’d look hard at CST, BDS, and Zone 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone w/ Bilstein and Fox 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  2. Not better, different. CST is a bracket , Zone is a knuckle. 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone w/ Bilstein and Fox 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  3. My truck (white one) has Zone also. The cutting and welding is EXTREMELY minimal. You have to notch an area on the left side of the rear crossmember and then weld in a small plate. 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone w/ Bilstein and Fox 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  4. Zone is a knuckle kit, CST is a bracket kit And as long as you get a quality spacer like BORA, you have nothing to worry about 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone w/ Bilstein and Fox 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  5. The red one is my buddies and it has full Resi Coilovers, no spacers. And the RCX bracket doesn’t increase track either. You need replacement rear shocks in which case there are a few good options 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone w/ Bilstein and Fox 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  6. For that price point Zone Off-road (owned by BDS) is superior 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  7. With just strut spacers not necessarily, with the dirt logics it’s definitely a contender. Most knuckle kits are all VERY similar. Biggest differences are usually just the lift method (spacers, shocks, Coilovers), and the finish of the kit. The better kits offer Coilovers, and full leaf packs such as FTS, BDS, Cognito, and the upgraded Fabtech. Cognito is the top of the line as far as lifts go 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  8. Red one has a 4.5” CST 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  9. Good luck 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  10. You just fold the ends and they should stay in place 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  11. Thanks, and yes the bilsteins were a big improvement 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  12. BDS’s website has lots of pics under their badass rides section. I have a Zone 4.5” (owned by BDS) with Bilstein 5100s set at 1.25” for 5.75” of total lift. 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  13. BDS 6” kit with Fox Coilovers and fox rear 2.0s 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  14. You shouldn’t have to undo anything 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  15. You could try leaf spring clamps 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  16. if you're going with a x10 or x12 wide wheel the AT2's in 33x12.5 will look good with a 6" kit. Honestly i'd look at the Zone 4.5" kit with the bilstein 5100's and adjust them up a little. thats your best and cheapest option the red truck is a CST 4.5" adjusted up 1" on 33x12.5x22 Toyo AT2's on 22x12 Welds
  17. A 305/55 uses a 20” wheel not a 22” wheel. If you want to run a 33.5”ish tire with 22s you just need to find a comparable size tire. My vote goes for one of the Zone kits (whose parent company is bds). I’ve had 2 Zone kits and they’re great kits for a great price. I have the Zone 4.5” with bilstein 5100s adjusted up 1.25” and rear fox 2.0s and the truck rides like a dream. I’m on 33x12.5s and 22x10s 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  18. That’s literally 15 minutes from me lol 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  19. Where in PA? 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  20. That’s pretty ****in cool!!! I like it. 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  21. Knuckle kits ALL use cv spacers thus widening front track width. Wheel spacers are 100% safe as long as they are QUALITY!!! Brands like BORA are what you should look for that are wheel/lug/hub centric. 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
  22. Nice! Thanks! How did you mount yours?? Also they come in black too 2017 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71 6.2L 4.5" Zone 22x10 American Force Grips 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers Instagram @wildchevys
