Purchased a new 2016 Silverado Z71


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey all!

 

I'm switching back to the truck world after driving a Camaro 2SS the last 3 years. I've ordered a 2016 Silverado LT Z71, 4wd, CC/Short Box with the 5.3 and All-Star package. I've got a few questions that I was hoping you all can help me out with, and I look forward to posting pictures and mods once I get it!

 

1. I'm waiting on a reply from the Sales Manager on estimated delivery time and the order code, but do you all know how long it typically takes to build and ship? The order was placed a week and a half, to two weeks, ago and the destination is North Florida.

 

2. I love true-dual exhaust, like on my camaro, but it seems all aftermarket options that I have come across have a single 3in pipe running back to a single muffler and then single or dual out. I'd like to stick with the Borla ATAK due to the sound, but is anyone aware of any exhaust kits out there, cat back or manifold-back, that give the truck a true dual exhaust?

 

3. How much lift do I need to safely run a 35x12in or 35x12.5 tire on the truck? It would either be a BFG A/T KO, or the M/T. Will aftermarket wheels be required? By safely, I mean that there wouldn't be rubbing during mild trail driving. I've looked at everything from the 2in Lift/Level, to the 6 or 7.5in rough country.

 

4. Any leads on aftermarket bumpers and such for the truck? Interested in something like thing without the push bar: http://www.roadarmor.com/images/customer_photos//20140404_161252.jpg

I may have some more questions soon, I'm so excited to get my hands on this truck!

Stainless works does exhaust systems that have an option for true duals with their headers and x pipe.
