This seems like a good thread to post this but can start a new one if needed. I'm looking for a few parts & upgrades that I can't really find what I'm looking for. Crowdsourcing here for ideas.
the rig: '16 Silverado 1500 LTZ 6.2/8spd

My $.02, I massaged 305x70x17's into my '16 1500 with coilovers and some trimming. Truck is paid for and has 120k on the clock so it's time to play a little ;) Having said that, I am still tempted with a 4" bds kit (and new Kings @ all corners... if available) to be able to clear 37's but I...
Finally did the "Norcal" mod to fit the 305x70x17's KO2's and man, I should have done this ages ago. Was concerned that I would have to pull the coilovers off and crank up the preload (i.e., lift) but the tires fit with no rubbing and the King EXT version shocks are in their sweet spot for both...

Chill man... Sure, you could take it that far if you wanted to but it was just a perspective that is relative to the original post. Take it or leave it. You brought politics to the discussion.
By the way, I love America and as a barrel-chested freedom lover land owner that likes to vacation...
Early life of the build... Kings, Deavers, Dirt King UCA's & cams, Diff lowering kit, longer King shock shafts and rod ends... Still need a fiberglass camper shell and roof rack!
Most important aspect of the truck is making sure my 4 legged friend has a good spot :) Ranger the Ridgback is one...
Exactly what I'm talking about with my post above! Really, we could get away with a less capable rig 70% of the time and still get "out" and enjoy the shit we like... but we are, myself #1 included, fixated on building overly-capable rigs that far exceed the normal requirements of what we...
Great thread and great insight. The answer to the question is somewhat relative. One's man Overlander may be the next's daily driver. Also depends on the load you'll carry and how far you want to go, and the terrain you'll cover and how fast you want to cover said terrain... etc. If you want...
