    Z71 Adventure Wagon

    We had a blizzard back in 07 I think it was when I was working traffic and streets for the county, spent the weekend at a shack up in the mountains dispatching for the plow trucks and the loaders out working the mountain towns, first and only time I've seen snow that could bury a man, first time...

    Z71 Adventure Wagon

    Y'all need to share the snow, 90% of Southern California hasn't seen a lick of snow this winter. It's in the 60s and breezy at the moment.

    Z71 Adventure Wagon

    I've looked at a few trucks that mounted pods above/adjacent to the wiper cowl, that's what I've been considering personally when I finally get around to adding lighting. Before that though I've been looking at light bars and trying to figure out unobtrusive mounting options. Digging the...

    Help finding a 6" lift for my 2021 tahoe LT

    To my knowledge nobody else makes a 6" setup. Is that exact height a real sticking point for you or would you go lower?

    '23 AT4 + 2.5" RC or 1.5" RL leveling + 275/65R20s or larger?

    We're still on the fence regarding lifts, the setup we're looking at is almost $6k without installation so the wife is feeling gun shy. The garbage Goodyear tires wore out in 20k miles so we needed new tires and we go out on the trail now and then so we went much more aggressive than stock with...

    I don't know if I brought this up before but are you thinking about adding pods or a light bar?

    Cross platform wheel options.

    I finally swapped out the stock Goodyear rubber for some Mickey Thompsons and it's honestly a night and day difference in terms of traction and capabilities, but ground clearance is still a big hangup. That and the lack of lockers.

    2021 Tahoe LS 4x4 Overlanding build

    Are you seeing any rubbing with those 35s at full lock?

    Cross platform wheel options.

    You're not wrong regarding the take-off deals, it's encouraging to hear that somebody is actually running these wheels and taking them off the beaten path. I've had several people recommend wheels but most of them never attack anything more aggressive than the curbs in the mall parking lot.

    2021 Tahoe LS 4x4 Overlanding build

    I've heard great things about them off-road, they've caught my eye as a more comfortable/affordable Land Cruiser option, but with 4 kids and a dog they just weren't big enough.

    Cross platform wheel options.

    I've debated new but I'm trying to keep my wheel budget tight and I've seen a lot of inexpensive wheels (comparable to oem take-offs) but I always worry about durability when it comes to cheap wheels. I had a 97 Mustang years ago that I was building as a track/drift car and I went cheap on the...

    Yeah I recently read something about the oem wheels being hub centric wheels so that will be another limiting factor.

    Cross platform wheel options.

    I'm sorry I guess I wasn't clear, I mentioned the 35s because the only 6x139 wheels I'm seeing up for resale are TRX wheels that still have the oem 35s installed which I would love to run, but that's a no go.

    I have to agree, I always feel like big girl is more comfortable and at home when I get her out in the dirt.

    Cross platform wheel options.

    From what I've been reading we can fit 17s over the brakes. I would love to step up to a 35 but that's impossible without a significant lift and some trimming. As much as the wife likes bouncing around on the trails a bit, the thought of cutting up a new truck sends her into a panic attack. I've...

    Nice to see a truck out there in her natural environment rather than sitting in another mall parking lot!

    Well shucks, that cuts down my options quite a bit.

    In what situations have you used 4L/4Low?

    Personally I like to take the kids out and wander the deserts and hills around here off and on when I can and I run her in 2H for pretty much everything, rocky hills may call for 4H, but when the rocks consistently get bigger than softball size or the grade gets steeper than about 20° I switch...

    In what situations have you used 4L/4Low?

    What tires are you running with that 4.5" lift?

    Cross platform wheel options.

    I'm just wondering if anybody has swapped oem wheels from another model/brand and what if any fitment issues have they run into. I really want to step down to an 18" wheel and dump these 20" boat anchors, but the wife saw the price tag on the wheel and tire package I was looking at and about had...

    2023 Stock Z71 with 285/60R20

    60 sidewall being a ratio of the tread width means you've got a taller sidewall/tire overall as well, roughly 0.5" taller. I've been eyeballing some 34s so this is encouraging. Just a sneeze away from a 35 but it's close enough.

    315/70R17 (35's) with no lift - fitment observations

    Awesome post thank you. It's nice to see a truck with some decent sidewalls around here for once!

    You might have better luck asking in the engines and drivetrain forum rather than the suspension forum.

    Anyone Running Kings or ICONS?

    She looks damn good man!! I'm sure the wife wouldn't mind/notice a little jaunt down a local trail...you know for testing and safety purposes.

    Out with the old. In with the older.

    Agreed I loved them back in the day when guys swapped welds and some big chunky meats like the old Interco Super Swampers.
