Looks awesome. Same thing I did with my front grill.

yeah, I think it changes the whole look of the truck. Our kiddos are now super excited to drive with mom now

So forgive me for not reading everything, I read 8-10 pages, but what is consensus go to leveling kit for the z71? Picking up a ‘24 hopefully on Monday and wife says she wants this one leveled. Looked at the 2” rough country linked on the first few pages of this thread, but says it will not fit on the z71. Thanks!

I would get the rig first and do some measurements. These newer ones come pretty dang level from the factory.

Seems most kits put the z71 slightly nose high. I agree on being level from factory. Rough country is 2” front 1” rear. The 3.5” rough country also lifts the front higher. And the readylift 3”, that I have, does 3” front 2” rear.

With all of these kits the other trims look level, just seems to be the z71 that end up nose high from what I’ve seen.

One person reported an upper ball joint failure on the stock UCA’s and 2” RC. That’s what I had at first and wanted to go higher anyway so helped sway the decision to go 3” readylift.

And the 2” RC does fit the z71, that’s a mistake on their site that shockingly sounds like they still haven’t changed since 2021!

Great info, thanks to both of you for the in depth quick replies!

All my ex’s high country needed was a 1” up front to level it…and it almost looks nose high just with that. I think if you are just after a level look, not actually having it a little higher, than a stock z71 pretty much gives you that.

Just wanted to come back and update after laying eyes on it, it does appear to be leveled from the factory. Thanks guys!

Changed some things up today. Went to the 2” level from RC (new release with front and back spacers). Also went up a tire size and squeezed in 285/55r22. Slight trim required to lower portion of front fender well behind felt, in-noticeable. Good luck going any bigger on a 2 or 2.5” level.

Hello I have the same one. Doesn’t it come with a factory 2” lift? I’m looking to do the same thing. Wasn’t sure if I needed the lift?
