2016 Z71 with Front Air Dam Removed?

m3n00b · April 12, 2016

Thank you!! If I'm really trying I can get around 18. The wheels and tires really killed my MPG but it was totally worth it to me.

Hey man I love your truck. What are it's specs? Lift? Tire size? Any other mods?

Thank you, I appreciate that! I just have a 2.5" level w/ 20x10 -19 Gear Big Blocks on 33x12.5 Mickey Thompson Deegan 38's

I've already tried that, no luck. Thanks for your obvious comment telling me what I should do.

Hey man, have you had any issues with rubbing? I am going after a much more aggressive stance than from the factory, but am on a budget. I would prefer to run 33s with spacers (size undecided). If I could accomplish this with only a 2.5" leveling kit I would be stoked! Great looking truck! I have a 2016 Midnight Edition being built May 2nd.

Thank you! I have a little bit of a rub on where the mud flap meets the carpeted wheel liner but I have trimmed and eliminated most of it. It doesn't rub on the sway bar or anything though so it doesn't bother me too much. No need to get spacers if you get the right offset, I think it would be safer to not run spacers but to each to own. Good luck!

Sweet. Have you tried clamping your exhaust valve open? It makes it sound 100x better. No v4 drone here either. Which lift/tire size were you looking at?

Wanting to know more about this? I added a Flowmaster muffler along with custom dual out pipes in the back and the V4 dron ie HORRIBLE.

I was gonna run the Range AFM Disabler device but that seems to have issues with newer models throwing codes so I'm passing on that option.

But if there is a way to reduce this V4 AFM drone I Am ALL About it.

If you can tell me more that would be great.

Thanks

Anyone put steps on their 16's yet?

Yes I added a set of Amp Research Powersteps to my 16' Z71

LOVE THEM !!!!! Expensive but I would not buy anything less now that I have them

Keeps the nice look with no step but drops down a step when I want it is all.

I was just referring to clamping the valve open on a stock exhaust.

my camera angle is a little off in the 2nd pic, but here is my 2016 before and after with that lower air dam removed

Looks good! I still want to get rid of that upper air dam, I'm getting more used to it but I do wish there was some sort of option for the 16 Silverados like the 16 Sierra's.
