Nice job. If I wasn't so damn scared of messing up my warranty, I'd be all over this. In two years, I'll be doing the same thing. Great job again - good stance.

Thank you! I wasn't to worried about the warranty they always find excuses anyways not to fix stuff, plus it's not my daily driver. YOLO

I wonder why they say the fronts don't fit the 15s cause the upper tower mount is the same to my knowledge. I know the arms did change on the upper side but thought the lower stayed the same.

Thanks! No BDS doesn't offer the upgrade for front fox coilovers yet, but I'm thinking about installing the black fabtech dirt logic 2.5 coilovers. The shop needs to take measurements from the center of wheel cap to opening of fender first because Fabtech makes different lengths. But for now the BDS kit is fine and rides really nice.


Are your shocks the 2.0 Performance IFP shox? If so, how are you liking them/the ride quality?

I have a set of 4 being delivered today

Cheers

Dude...looks great. Nice work. I leveled out my 2015 Z71 Tahoe (2 1/2 inches in the front, 1 1/2 in the rear) and I'm about to put some XD832's on my truck, along with Nitto Grappler Ridges in 295/55R20.... agonized over the tire size more than anything. I want something beefy, but that will also clear the wheel wells okay. But truck looks dope.

How did the install go? How is the ride now? I am thinking about possibly getting a Z71 and doing the BDS 6"
Isn't the Z71 just the badging and different shocks? If so, why buy the Z71 stuff just to replace it?

It also comes with the 2 speed transfer case, and the 3.42 gears. I want those, and the only other way to get those is with the trailering package that adds the air ride, and I don’t want that
