Washed it today. I've been thinking about pulling the rear block to level it out, but I'm having a hard time believing it needs it. It almost looks level as is.

I might hold off until I find a set of OEM 22's and see what it looks like after.

Thanks man I appreciate it!

 

All my trucks have been Z71's, so when I got to the dealer and realized that the bed stickers are now a $100 option (not sure but I think that's for GMC's only) I was little ticked off. I will say now though that it's grown on me not having them. Also don't understand why the GMC's don't have the Z71 logo in the dash cluster.

 

The Toyo's are pretty much flush with the fenders. I don't really like the look of big mud flaps so I didn't want a tire that stuck out and that would totally destroy my rocker panels.

i could be mistaken, but i believe that the GMC's don't have the Z71 bed sticker, because now they put the badge at the bottom of the A pillar...which, personally, i like the look better than the sticker on the bed...i like clean look and minimal stickers though...i have a midnight edition, so the badge on my truck is where 'Silverado' or Sierra" would normally be...

Yes, just a 3" inch spindle up front, limo front sides, limo tint visor on windshield and limo over the darkened rear sides and back windows.

Well done. I love the debadged and "de-stickered" look. Good clean look

Man, a lot of these mods look so nice.......but other than bulbs and bars, anything else is bound to screw up the warranty. Would love to do a slight lift, magna flow, slightly larger tires. Plus I'd have to start selling body parts to afford it.

Saw this beaut outside of my office today. Wondering if anyone can give me an idea of what size this may be, because the stance was perfect.

 

Mine has a 2.5 inch level with 1 inch bigger rear blocks on 33/12.50/20, and it had more clearance than me. I seriously doubt it was a 6 inch though. Sorry for the crappy iphone pic

 

FYI - these were also 33/12.50/20

Looks like maybe a zone 4.5" or so. Or somewhere around that height. You can see the lift brackets but just barely

Why leave the stickers on the bed? Looks out of place with everything else gone, doesn't look as clean as the rest of the truck...

I guess that makes sense, I just like the Z71 decals. Probably too late to remove them now. Do you think it would be darker paint under the decals after 2 years in the sun?

Well then keep them on -- it's your truck -- doesn't matter what the internet thinks. Z71 can be just an appearance package or the full upgraded Rancho suspension package, either way, it's still iconic and sets your truck apart from non-Z71s --- especially at resale time. You've got the cool badge in the grill...sticker on the bed looks great with it.
