PureZ71's 2021 Silverado LT Trail Boss Build

[Scott Killman]

Just got my ready lift 2” sst lift kit installed today. Had it done at the dealer. Took a few hours. Also got the alignment done as well. Drove it home and it feels good. Can definitely feel a bit bigger ride height and angle. Truck is very dirty so I’ll wash it tomorrow and get some proper photos

So that lift kit was just to raise the front? I thought it already came with a factory 2” lift. I hadn’t really paid much attention.

Technically the kit raises the Front 2' and the Rear 1' (got blocks for the rears). The truck does come with a factory 2" lift but its in all four which still has the rack effect. Which I really don't like (my euro car side coming out). With this kit installed, I am now at exactly at 41.25 inches from the ground to the fender on all four tires.

Cool picture, where have you been going for the snow? Snoqualmie? 

 

I need to head to the Crystal Mountain area soon, while the snow is still here.

Thanks, I went up to Snoqualmie pass for some snow photos. Crystal should still have some snow on it.

Yea, few miles outside of Enumclaw you start seeing it, by the time you hit Greenwater it is plied up pretty good, just gets deeper as you go up 410.

How much did the dealer charge for the level and alignment ?

I bought the kit for $550 and the dealer charged me like $500'ish for the install/alignment.

Got another part last night. its the Front and Rear mud flap delete kit. I originally ordered the painted plugs but didn't like the look of them so I went with this kit. This is a mod to prep for something else coming soon..

I tried taking the chrome z71 badge off last week to dip it black but I ended up breaking it so I got the replacement in today

Another mod to complete out the truck is 2" spacers from Supreme Suspensions (https://www.americantrucks.com/supreme-suspensions-2-hub-wheel-centric-wheel-spacers-0718-silverado-1500.html)

You should tint the fog lights. That would look good since they're the last chrome thing on the front end.

Trucks looks good.

 

Liking the Squarebody to the left in the bottom picture too!

Finally completed the Version 1 look that I wanted since I've got the truck. Added the 2" spacers and Toyo Open County R/T in 35x12.5R18
