Torn between lowering and lifting....


Recommended Posts

I like both! Had a 2014 sierra lifted and now just a factory height All Terrain, but this is by far my favorite lowered truck

I lowered my '13 and lifted my '14. Both 4x4's... Both look great!

 

This is a 2/3 drop 4x4...

What are the specs on this truck? It looks awesome! Lift? Level? Tire and wheel size?

I think if you're going for the ratrod look, it should be authentic spray can bbq black.

I have had several trucks and always have had lifted trucks lately. This 14' being my dd I don't think I wanna go like I use to. My 13 had 7.5" lift and 35's.

 

One truck I miss dearly was my Silverado SS. Sporty truck but was still awd for the boat ramps.

 

Which direction to go is the question. Level with 33's or just lower and debadge it as it sits.

 

My truck 14.

5.3L

3.08 gears

Muffler mod, rear block is already gone, 20" wheels and High country bumpers.

Change the gears and level it with 33s. You'll likely be happier that way. Especially if you ever get stuck in heavy traffic and want to jump the median to go the other way or if it ever rains hard and starts to flood like it does around where I live. Both are reasons why my truck shall be lifted!

My opinion, trucks should be lifted, or left alone. Unless you have a 2wd model. I too have had lifted trucks, my 04 has 11". My new one I went with the 2.5" RC an I'm very pleased.

Don't do either.

I think the same way, only for me every dollar that gets spent on height + or - could be going to the repairs and supercharger fund.
