I don't think the Z85 is an off-road package. I believe the Z85 is setup for towing and handling.

If I'm not mistaken, Z85 is the RPO code for a heavy duty suspension (tow/haul) package.

Z71 is the one and only true off road package (a RPO code as well).

Check your golve box out...

2500s don't come with the Z71 option (Classic ones anyways, not sure about the new ones). It doesn't matter really cause as soon as you lift the truck you basically do have an off-road suspension. My 2500HD handles better offroad than my Colorado Z71. It has most of the same stuff it did plus more- like a locking diff, heavy duty shocks, skid plates (Colorado didn't have it).
