2021 1500 Silverado with 35x12.50R20 3.5 RC lift BUILD

Armordillo tire mount is done, and exhaust tips switched to black also. 

 

Crazy to think the hardest, tedious task was the exhaust tips. Those three bolts are damn near impossible If you don't have a ratcheting wrench I would not attempt.

Looking good! I pulled the steps out of the bumper but still a pain to do those tips.

Been a bit since I have updated. I currently have been doing work underneath the vehicle. Airbags, compressor, aux fuel tank connection etc...

 

Today I am putting in the Rough Country grill lights. 

Can you post more about the aux fuel tank and connections?

Just wondering how where the grille lights to install.  Where do you put the switch? Also how is that RC lift kit treating you? I hear mixed reviews not sure where I wanna go with lifting it. Thanks.

How easy was the install?  I have a 3.0 L Duramax myself with a very similar lift and would love to know about the extra fuel capacity

It took about 30 minutes to an hour with the add-on kit for the quick adapt.

The grille lights took about 3 hours to install. I added the upfitter OEM switches were simple to wire in with that. I have no complaints about the lift. However, I lost no ride quality to each their own, which impressed me the most. I am also impressed that everyone told me I couldn't fit the 35s with that lift. I love to prove people wrong HAHA. The math made sense in my head, and it did work well.

I might have missed it, but did you go with Rough country shocks/struts or stock?  Awesome stance, this is what I want my new truck to look like… I have eibach on my current trucks and love them… concerned about rough ride…

Rough country with the base kit so I kept the ride quality, was not affected at all.
