New to the forum. I have a Z71 2016 that's got some squeaking from what I believe may be the suspension. It has 285/45/22 tires. 67k miles. Considering a 2inch front/3inch drop in rear to close a gap in the rear well. Has anyone got some pics of a lowered Z71 4x4? Also looking to improve the ride quality with new struts while lowering it. Is it possible to lower it and improve the ride both? Will it affect towing ability? Thanks

squeaking is usually bushings, have you tried lubricating the sway arm bushings front & rear? lithium grease works best

Been there and dropped it all. Do yourself a favor and just pick up a set of 2-3" lower springs and call it a day.
