Tc 2" Level Kit W/add-a-leaf

luznmyhair · January 22, 2011

Anyone out there heard any feedback, good or bad, on the TC level kit with the add-a-leaf. I apologize if their is a discussion on this already, but I am currently on an offshore rig off the coast of Southern Mexico. The net speed is slow and and the bandwith is small. Additionally, my time is limited, so I can only browse this forum for so long. Thinking about installing this kit on my 08 Silv z-71 and sizing up to 285/75/18's or possibly larger(feedback on that would be great also). Thanks in advance for any feedback.

I got the bilstein coil over lift and the spring in the rear... I am only able to fit 285-65-18 but the ft is only up 1.75 inches that sounds like over a 33" tire might have to trim up some plastic.

I had a chance to do some research today u r right. I probably will go with a shorter tire-probably a "65".I don't want to trim anything. I have a bad habit of researching evertything I want to buy every possible way I can. I had a 2000 Silverado b4 I bought this one. It took me three years to make up my mind to buy a new truck. I want to wait until the tires wear down before I buy the kit and tires together. But, I am home only 6 months a year. The truck only has 12K miles on it so I will probably run out of patience on that. Thanks for the input. One question for you though-Do you feel that the money was well spent on the Bilstein.

I'm not familiar with the Tough Country kit, but I'm very happy with my Zone 2" lift. If you have the factory 18's, I would go with 275/70/18 or 285/65/18 tires with the 2" lift.

Here's a link to the lift I have on my truck:
