MVI already has a wireless charging kit for the T1xx trucks. However, for about 1/3 of the price there's a thread somewhere in this forum that lists everything you need to buy from GM Parts to install that feature.

Well here she is so far:

 

  • Supreme Suspensions 2-Inch Hub and Wheel Centric Wheel Spacers
  • Rough Country Cat Back exhaust with dual black tips
  • Iconic 4" Round Side Steps
  • Gator Tonneau Cover
  • (4) 6" Anzo HID offroad Lights on Sportbar
  • EGR paint matched fender flares w/ black rivets
  • Black Silverado, LT and Z71 emblems
  • Spray in Bedliner
  • 5% back / 20% front window tint
  • White Mirror Caps
  • Tinted Taillight covers

Front/Rear bumpers are getting painted to color match on 10/20, I'll post pics once they're done and back on my truck.

 

The only thing left I want to do is:

2" Ready Lift for a total of a 4" lift/level

18" Fuel Vapor Wheels wrapped in 35"  Nitto Ridge Grapplers

Imo, the round lights on top of the sport bar look a lot better than the full width led strip GM offers in the accessories catalog. Did you wire in a switch, or are you using a key fob remote switch for them?

I haven't wired them up yet, I tucked all the wiring up in the sportbar for now.  I wanted to get some lights on the sportbar sooner rather than later as I felt like it looked too bare with nothing.

I hate the remote switch you get with the GM Accessories lights. I'm considering getting the auxiliary switches through GM Upfitters and using one of them for an off/on switch. I do wonder if the light switch for the last gen trucks with the sport bar lights can modified and used in the T1xx trucks so there's a wire in switch.

Finally got my new soft roll up gator ETX. Easy install. Thought this would work best with dirt bikes in the bed up against the cab.

Finally picked up the cooper's... Discoverer AT3 XLT.
Not enough mileage obviously for a good review but the first 20 minutes were impressive coming from the OE tires.
285/60/20 with 1.5" LK up front. No issues at all. Super happy with the look and initial feel.

Just put in the GM Z71 floor liners tonight. They are the nicest floor mats I’ve ever seen and I’ve bought weather tech mats for years. Highly recommended and worth the small premium.

I agree with this 100%. I normally order WeatherTech immediately after I get home from the dealership after buying a new vehicle. I decided to pass on that this time since my truck came with the Z71 floor mats. I don't regret it.

Installed Fox 2.0 coilovers, Rough Country upper control arms, Bilstein 5100 rear shocks and alignment.  FYI the Fox shocks are supposed to be factory height for Trail Boss / AT4 but they gave 1" lift...perfect actually.

How do you like the ride of the Fox coilovers?

I wish I could say I notice a difference, but honestly I don't. I do feel like the rear Bilsteins are a little firm.  Which is strange...I had Bilstein 5100s  on all four corners of my 2018 Silverado and the ride improvement was very noticeable.  It was softer on the small bumps but firm and "planted".  That's what I was hoping for.

Interesting I would have expected that you would feel an improvement. The Ranchos are horrible to me.
