Scooter Scott’s 2018 Sierra NHT Build

[Scooter Scott]

Starting another build thread. Just traded in my 2016 Silverado. I wanted to have the additional towing capacity when I get to the point of towing my Jeep JKU.

What are your plans for the build?

Right now looking at putting on 33s...can't decide if I want load range D or E tires.  2" leveling kit...and not sure what else yet.  

 

Which brings up another question...I've heard on these 18s that the control arms are different which doesn't play well with 33s.  How can I resolve that?

Installed some new shoes the other day

 

Stock wheels with 275/65/20 BFG KO2 and NO level

 

Front driver




Front passenger



The front passenger is the only one I’ve been able to get it to rub on while in a right turn. Doesn’t even need to be a full lock. If I pull the liner back I think I’m good to go.

I had a Magnaflow 12909 installed today.  Took out the muffler and the flapper.  I think the sound is perfect.  Makes it sound like a truck.
