Too lift more than a level or not, 3 or 3.5 inch.

Had the CST stage 3 3.5 inch lift installed this week. Loving the ride so far. A little stiffer than I expected but that may be the new LT tires too. The body roll/boat feeling when turning, breaking and hitting speed bumps is gone. Feels much more planted to the road. With that though I can now feel every bump but I'm used to it as my daily driver is a mustang.

Looks great..!! I'm looking forward at doing mine, tracking shows next week. I ordered the icon stage 1. I have 295 60 20s now which are a 34, I hope they dont look too small.

Let some air out of those tires, 32-35 and you will notice a huge difference.

I just got the CST kit installed on my 2019 Silverado RST Z71.. I will post some photos soon - I have stock wheels on it now but will be going with some Walker Evans Forged wheels with some BFGs.

I will post more on the truck soon (If you wanna see it now let me know ill go snap something).. I have been working on a few things and have been overwhelmed but I can say that I am very happy with what I see from the CST kit. I did Remote res adjust on the rear with 1", non adjust on the front.. for now.

4" ReadyLIFT SST....very easy install....did it myself over the weekend. Shops around here wanted $800+ to install!

No diff spacer needed with the 2019s+.

Blocks in back.

they all look same no matter what kit ( 2in is 2in and 4in is 4in), its ride quality and ability to go offroad that seperates em

why no diff in 4in?.....4inches is 4inches idk why 2019 would be any different, anything will work for lil while but is there an engineering reason for this?...….you can do 6inches and truck will drive down road but later is when run into problems

Because the new trucks have narrower diffs/longer CVs. The angles are just fine.

even the 2in kit from GM comes with new cv axles I believe....idk 4 in seems a stretch, if goin offroad anyways....or maybe just angle idk

I went to the dealer to purchase the trail boss cb axles but they wanted like 800 bucks. Just found them last night on GM parts outlet for like 100-140 if I remember correctly. I’ll probably go that route down the road just to be safe. As of now with my 4” SST the 4wd works without any issues/noises.

This is what I have so far...

I ordered the wheels today.. I'll mush them until I get them made. I wanna put walker 17s on some 32s at least.. 33 I think I gotta take off the mud flap.
