"You're not gonna hit nothin" Proceeds to scrape the entire undercarriage lmao!

[@Downtimelost]

😂😂😂 I wanted my lady to drive so I could film !

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Brother!!! Not only are the bumpers sick but those tires look super dope on that thing. Should be an easy clearance fix! Great footage. If anyone has truly tested these new Colorados it's you. Love the content.

[@Downtimelost]

Thanks brother that means a lot to me ! 🫶

[@TonyTheTechnician]

@@Downtimelost absolutely!!

[@supert107]

Most definitely running it thru the paces. I’m super surprised nothing has broken yet. Especially on a newer truck stuff usually falls off going over the bump leaving the dealer

[@kyleolson148]

That looks like a fun trail, I can't wait for summer to hit. Keep up the good work!!!

[@Downtimelost]

So much fun !! And thanks for watching ! 🤘 us az people wish summer would never hit 😂😂 90 degrees already 😭

[@c_haines]

My 34's rubbed on that plastic also. What I did was take it off the truck and cut a big chunk out of it and put it back on. It looks stock until you look into the fender opening.

[@Downtimelost]

Yeah we gonna have to cut just a bit ! Lol I’ll probably take that plastic thing off

good video man !!

It’s nuts mans I can’t even camp in the desert anymore 😭😭

[@parkerschankweiler1285]

I have icon stage 2 on my 15 canyon. Have had 2 separate shock leaks and 1 was right after I had it serviced by icon. Down the road I’ll be switching to bilstein most likely.

Well shoot man that’s good to know thanks for the heads up 🤘

🔥🔥🔥I definitely need to get out there someday

[@Downtimelost]

Come to az ! I’ll show you around!! 🤘🤘

[@krasnaludek298]

Do you have a full-size spare? Reason that I ask is that I see the stock 31/32 in the under bed location. I’m on 35s & have debated whether to get a full size spare. If I ever get a flat up front, then I’d just have to do a 3-way swap to keep the smaller tire at the rear. Not the worst, but certainly more work. Another great video! 👍🏻

[@Downtimelost]

Yeah it’s the stock spare , eventually I wanna do a spare tire swing out on the rig ! I’m gonna use my old 35x11.5 as a spare bit for now it’s the oem spare , thanks homie I appreciate it ! 🤘

[@geezusmeatball1328]

One thing you should get is the Banks Pedal monster for the gas pedal lag

[@Downtimelost]

I should she would rip hard !

Thanks bill !! We gotta go hit the trail sometime!! 🤘

What trail was that? Great video!

Box canyon ! Whoop de doo trail ! It was fun man , I appreciate it ! 🤘

[@michaellopez9837]

Hey what’s up brotha I just saw a comment of why you switched over to the MT’s from the RT’s … They Make the 35/12.50/17 in the RT’s

[@Downtimelost]

I know I was gonna stay with the RTS but Falken didn’t have them In stock at there warehouse :((

[@michaellopez9837]

@@Downtimelost now if you could recommend or which would you rather have since you’ve had both, either the rts or the mts Which would you pick ?

[@Downtimelost]

@@michaellopez9837 haven’t had much experience with the mts yet so far there super quiet and flex much better than the rts !

[@gravitygabri3l]

Any reason why you decided to go with the Z71 versus the ZR2?

[@Downtimelost]

I got a bad ass deal on the z71 I got it for 40 k screwed the sales guy and the zr2 wasn’t out yet and I needed a ride 😂

[@njbinkers]

What if you buy the Icon suspension through Peak? Your still supporting them

[@Downtimelost]

I could , but I wanna see what peaks suspension feels like !

[@AdventuresOfRogersAndHenderson]

6:08 Does anyone make a rear diff skid for y’all’s rear end yet?

[@Downtimelost]

I wish 😭 aev is supposed to soon !

[@thomaskeenan4601]

I see the icon shocks say up to 2.5 inch lift. However the at4 and z71 have a factory lift. Is that same ride height or is it 2.5 higher than the factory?

[@Downtimelost]

Tan z71 has factory specs my rig has a 2 inch puck lift and and a 2 inch add -a -leaf

[@HatWearingDog]

@@Downtimelost Isn’t the Z71 like 1.5” higher than the LT/WT? Did your lift remove the factory height making your truck 2.5” higher than an LT/WT or maintain the factory height making it 4” higher than an LT/WT?

[@Downtimelost]

@@HatWearingDog the z71 is the same as the wt\lt stock just has bigger tires so overall I have 2 inch in the front and 2.5 in the rear !

[@supert107]

What’s up with the Camber at the 7:00 mark??? Is it supposed to be like that ?!?!?

[@Downtimelost]

He was flexin out !

[@ronhu6035]

I haven''t decided on a drone, which one did you choose?

[@Downtimelost]

I really like my dji mavic 2 ! Super easy to fly good footage and flies really good in the wind!

[@JT4X4OFFROADING]

Sick!!

[@Downtimelost]

So much fun !!!

[@mikewilkins136]

thoughts on the rough country 6inch lift ? been looking into it for my 24 colorado trail boss

[@Downtimelost]

Never ! I do not like that cross member drop stuff those big lifts make you do 2.5 inch front is perfect and doesn’t ride like poopy lol

[@krasnaludek298]

Putting a 6” lift on any truck is going to create a significant upward shift on center of gravity. That alone is a non-starter for many of us.

[@mikewilkins136]

@@krasnaludek298 yea thats true just 3 inch lifts just dont look as good as the 6 inch but its prob better to stick with 3 inch for performance wise

[@zachstraxx9899]

What type of roof rack did you get?

[@Downtimelost]

Prinsu pro ! I have a video on it on my channel 🤘

[@thomaslehmann5981]

Do 35s not make the thing doggy? Also hard on the transmission

[@Downtimelost]

Nah not really dude she still rips hard ! Also the zr2 bison comes with 35s with the same trans so it’s used to iy

[@thomaslehmann5981]

@Downtimelost Ya true and for what they charge for the Bison package the thing should be geared correctly. 3:43 is an economy ratio.

[@NDparticular]

How much into mods are you and why didn’t you go zr2

[@Downtimelost]

Lots of mods ! I should have got a zr2 but I couldn’t wait for them to be released at the time ! But the z71 does the job !

[@theshowupdadfoundation7632]

why you switch from the falken RT's?

[@Downtimelost]

I just wanted 12.5 wide my rts were 11.5 lol and falken didn’t have that size in rts :/ I like the mts tho !

[@jracer815]

What size tires on the other truck

285/70R17

[@Downtimelost]

Not yet I’m testing it for r&d ! Soon tho!

[@Michael42587]

Anytime you are crawling you need to be on 4 low. If you aren't you are just building unnecessary transmission heat. Transmission + heat = 💀transmission 😂

[@Downtimelost]

I’m in 4 low most the time while crawling for sure ! Az has mostly easy trails so 4 high is good most the time !

[@theshowupdadfoundation7632]

seemed like they did better on rocks

[@Downtimelost]

Oh yeah forsure I like them a lot !

[@gallonofpcp7954]

I have no idea why Chevy refuses to put a real locker in their trucks below a zr2

[@Downtimelost]

Yeah I’m not sure it would be real nice if I did have a e locker or something !

[@ryansommerfeld2098]

Make it an option at least. Like Ford does with their Ranger and F-150

[@JeffreyJohnston724]

I would not use peak they sent me cv boots that ripped quicker then the oem boots

[@Downtimelost]

Well shit man that’s a bummer

[@JeffreyJohnston724]

@@Downtimelost thats why I went to chevy performance ball splines on both of my zr2 s if you lift the colorados 4 inches or more they tend to split cv boots
