2020 Silverado RST w/ BDS lift and tons of upgrades

[@wilbo3376]

Exactly the video I was looking for. Was deciding between a 4" & 6" BDS lift for my RST. Didnt want to go too high. Most pics and vids show the truck at low angles to make 6" look taller. Also I couldnt decide on wheel offset with 35s. I agree with you, that "stance" is just right. I'll be going with 20" wheels tho. I personally prefer a little more tire. Great truck! Thanks.

I wish more trucks came with the standard bed size. Good looking truck.

[@richardchandler3236]

!!! What a beautiful truck.. I have the exact same truck but short bed. I really like the look of the standard bed and honestly never thought about ordering one with the standard bed. Good looking truck bro!

@@mrg.8823 I'm back.. bought a 6.2 trailboss.. 🤟 you still happy with the bds lift? Would you make any changes?

[@mrg.8823]

@@bigfishlittleboat4069 sorry for the delay in response. I love the BDS lift and the way it rides. I have had a couple issues with the truck but none with the lift, tires or exhaust. My park assist sensors would randomly go off so I got that fixed and my back up camera at times just shows a black screen with exclamation point ( I guess that's a known issue). One thing that you should check with your truck is your box to make sure it is aligned properly. I just happened to notice mine when I was looking in my side view mirrors(the lines didn't match up). When I went to the dealership I looked at the other trucks on the lot and they all had issues, some a lot worse than others. There is a bulletin from GM for all 19/20 silverados/Sierras. Obviously covered under warranty and takes them an hr to do. Congrats on the truck!! Are you thinking about putting a lift on it?

[@bigfishlittleboat4069]

@@mrg.8823 thanks for the info.. yes I checked the bed and recall stuff. Was your rst made in Mexico or Indiana? My trailboss was made in Indiana. I plan on getting the bds lift also. 💪

[@mrg.8823]

@@bigfishlittleboat4069 mine was made in Mexico. The bed issue bugged the heck out of me and the dealership tried sending me to where I ordered it from until I walked around their lot and pointed out all the other boxes that weren't aligned. Then he took the time to find the recall.

[@mrvr05]

Nice truck! Looking to order me a 2020 RST model as well. Did you get the lift kit, tire and wheels from the dealer or from another party? What model of kit? Does it void any warranty on the truck if done by others? Any add-ons you recommend? Is it short bed or standard?

[@mrg.8823]

Hi, I ordered everything from the dealership. When the truck came in they had a shop they work with pick it up (tm autosports) and put everything on it. I purchased the 6" BDS Lift with fox shocks. My exhaust is the Borla S type which they installed as well. I also added a extended warranty through the dealership which I normally don't do but considering all that was done I wanted to. They checked with the warranty company and they said my 6" lift would NOT void the warranty. That warranty is 10 year, 150k mile bumper to bumper basically.

[@mrg.8823]

Sorry, I forgot to mention I have the standard bed. The standard bed, sun roof, 6.2 combo was non existent when I purchased therefore I had to do the special order.

[@mrg.8823]

I just ordered the gun metal 20" fuel blitz rims for the winter with 35" Falken wildpeak At3's. Hoping that setup looks nice. The ridge grapplers seem to slip in the rain so I can't imagine they're the best for the winter.

[@BERTO929]

[@bryondrill9239]

I have a 2020 6.2 Midnight edition Trail Boss that I was planning to add the 22×10 contra rims black with candy red in the spring.( before I watched your video) Discount tire told me they would fit no rubbing with the factory 2 inch lift. Is this true or are the feeding me BS?

[@mrg.8823]

I guess it's possible if you have the correct offset and a 10" wide tire. My tires are 12.5" and they definitely rub in reverse on 3/4-full turn. I don't get any rubbing in drive. I also have a 6" lift so I'm sitting 2" higher than what you are (2" trail boss lift+additional 2"). If I had to guess, you will need some trimming at the very least.

Nice truck! what are u getting a tank with them 35’s? Is it a 21 gal tnk?

[@mrg.8823]

Thank you. I get roughly 345 miles to the tank. To be honest I'm not 100% positive on the tank size. I think the 6.2L has more to do with the gas mileage than the tires.

How did you keep the same chromes exhaust tips. I want to upgrade to the borla s type also.

[@mrg.8823]

Borla has multiple options to order from. Black tips, chrome tips, no tips. I ordered the no tips because I liked the factory look a lot. It was also $150 cheaper or so.

[@elmando2462]

Does the lift void the waranty?

[@mrg.8823]

@el mando, you would need to talk to your specific dealer. I purchased an exteded warranty up to 150k and the dealership called the warranty company to see if they would cover it and they said as long as it 6" or less they would still cover it. Many dealerships sell the sca trucks that are built very similar to mine so i would suggest dealing with one of those. I had everything done through the dealership prior to taking delivery of the vehicle

[@rroche10]

Damn nice!

[@trippharper9169]

Does this vehicle fit in your garage?

[@mrg.8823]

Yes, it fits in my garage, the car wash and parking ramps. That was one of my concerns with the 6" lift but i went to the auto show and measured others with the 6" and they were under 7ft. I believe mine sits at 6'10" or so.

[@marcuslimbaugh4592]

Lift covered under warranty? How much installed at dealership?

[@mrg.8823]

BDS covers all parts of the lift as long as you register the lift with them after installation. Also, if there are parts the dealership will not cover as a result of the lift being installed then BDS will deal directly with the dealership from my understanding. I believe I paid right around 8-9k for the tires, rims and lift installed. I know custom offsets wanted 7k for the rims, rires and lift without install. The bed cover was 1k installed and the Borla s type exhaust was 2k installed.

[@twilliamstile1]

So 10” rim but a 12.5” tire is that correct?

[@mrg.8823]

Yes. You can do multiple different widths when it comes to tire/rim combos. It all depends on what you want the appearance of the side wall to look like but that set up is very common.

[@henrythompson5624]

Hi did you have to use a 3/8 spacer on wheels

[@mrg.8823]

When I originally called custom offsets they told me a spacer was recommended but when I had everything installed at TM autosports they did not need one.
