Buy the tool on Amazon (cheap) and learn the reset procedure, it's fairly easy.

Can you run the harness out thru the engine bay up the side of the windshield? Most have room between the glass and body, use 3M tape to secure.

The new Silverado ZR2 would be a good candidate.

The RC mount is adequate, not overkill. I use my 20ft recovery rope with a abrasion shield. I like Gear America products, but there are many, many venders. The video I linked shows you how to determine the length you need, most rigs are in the 16-20 ft area.

I have the RC mounts with Gear America Mega shackles. I would be careful side loading the mounts. A 20' rope makes a great bridle for attaching at both points. 4X4 Bridle

GM issued a recall on the involved trucks about 3 years ago. It involved a reflash of the air bag system, old issue. The Colorado roof is made from Boron steel, great roll over protection, hard on drill bits.

I've never understood high horse power off road trucks. My 3.6 V6 ZR2 has the power to twist parts out the drivetrain now with bolt ons and a tune. I've never had a lack of power, just a lack of traction.

Like Mike said 00 is the minimum I would run. You may want to rent/buy/borrow a hyd crimp tool for installing terminals. Horrible Freight has one for a reasonable price.

Another method is to use a receiver hitch so you can mount the winch front or rear of vehicle.

I used for towers, or legs to mount the rack. This was before they came out with the backbone mount. Check and see if you have a "Rack Attack" store nearby, they would be able to supply anything you need.

Rhino Rack Platform racks can be adjusted to any size you need.

I have the extended cab, 74" bed ZR2, I start with about 300lbs less weight. Add winch, skidz, decked drawers, gear, softopper and a swing out, that's a good 800lbs. Add another 200 load when on the trail, water, food, camp gear. I'm close to the GVW of 6001lbs. I have upgraded fr and rr...

Nice piece of kit.

I've been using this jack from Tractor Supply, like most things the price has gone up 30% the past year. All in 1 jack.

I installed that same Duralast last spring. Been involved with a few online discussions about the so called charging profiles for gas vs diesel engine/battery (LA vs AGM). The automotive AGM is a lead acid battery with the acid solidified in the matting inside the battery. I have yet to find...

Falken 255/80/17's, E rated, 5500lb vehicle with 128" WB. Chalk test gave me street pressures of 33F and 31R, I drop to 20 when I leave the pavement. More for comfort than traction. Snow/sand I have gone as low as 12psi.

Two good forums for info are coloradofans.com and zr2zone.com. If you use the Peak C/O kit you do not use the 1" level kit. I would highly recommend Deaver rear leafs vs the AAL. Also Timbrem off road bump stops. Get the lightest tires you can find. The DSSV's do not like heavy tires or...

Horrible Freight has tool sets in blow mold cases that start at $40. These may not be the best tools you can buy but great for trail use. If you leave one behind no big deal.

Ridg or Wilco.
