Awesome. Are you running the add a leaf or just the 5 inch block? And are you using spacers in the rear? Would love to see more pics

That was with the 5" block. I took that picture at an angle that made the truck look even. The front was .5" higher. I recently added a bds Add a Leaf.

The lift increased my track width by approximately 1.5" so I added 1.5" BORA adapters. The adapters are hub/lug centric. I'll get some pics later today. The black ones are BORA, the other are from eBay (not hub centric).

Did the add a leaf raise it that half inch or does it have a rake now?

I have about 1" rake. BDS AAL's will give u 1-1.5" of lift to the rear. I got 1.5", exactly what I was looking for. I tow my trailer and atv's so I needed that rake. To me the slight rake doesn't stand out at all.

I read everything 6 months ago and then forgot it cuz i ended up with just a 2.5 level kit. I've come to the conclusion that I want more lift!! Who woulda guessed right? I thoroughly enjoy the look of a 4" lift. I also feel like that would be just the right amount of additional attitude my truck needs. Will my 305/55-20" toyos and +1 Mavericks still work? Is it possible to maintain my level?

Awwww phuq It is. Ideally I'll like to do 35-22" with about the same +1-ish offset

Idk what you are doing but when you select the photo it come on right side up.... . What kind of sorcery is this??

I think the 4" would suit you well... I see most companies state that on 20" wheels you can un a 35 and as long as the backspacing is in check yoi should be able to run a 35 in 22s. May have to use wheel spacers tho.

Had about one inch of rake so I put a 1/4" spacer under the strut which raised up the front a 1/2". Looks more level now.

Are you still running a level and body lift? Looks good with the new wheels and tires!

Nope my truck has a 4 inch skyjacker lift and now the front end is at 4.5. I do have a rough country 1.25 body lift but its still in the box. Might throw it on sometime if i go to a 35 inch tire.

Does this truck fit in a 7' parking garage? Do you have an accurate measurement of the overall height?

Finally had some time to check the measurements. The answer to your question is yes, it will fit. The truck measures 6'10" = 82" @ the top of the xm antenna. Just be careful cuz it will be tight.

6'10 hu.... Wow.... I thought it would be taller.

Good to know!!

My Zone 6.5" lift... A little big for me but rides nice. I wish I could fix my speedometer with my tuner though... Nothing like blowing past people on the highway when ur doing 45 haha

It's Mr Question here again lol....ok guys what do y'all think between the 4.5" Zone or the 5" Rough Country for my '15 Silverado? I don't want the track width extended and I'll be running 35" Nitto Trails on factory 20" wheels. Which lift will look the best and ride the best?

It doesn't matter which one you choose. They are the same spacer style lift kit, so they will both be pretty much same. What I have seen is the Rough Country sometimes requires a little bit of adjustment to get everything lined up because thier manufacturing process isn't as detailed as the zone. Once it is completely installed though they really have no differences.

Any knuckle lift will widen your track.

If you buy the bracket lift from rough country it will not. However there is a lot more work involved. A ways back I posted about my installation that I did in November. I did my alignment right after only thing that had to be adjusted was tow.

It's a good kit.but you need to be really good with tools to do it on your own. And it sucks doing it on jack stands.
