[@guib5887]

You add a leaf but did you change your shackle for longer? Thkx

[@Downtimelost]

Yes I did booth !

[@guib5887]

@Downtimelost Nice ! Do you remember the longer of it? I though in your video was 2"

[@Tacomafrys]

Those ender shots are so sick! Not gonna lie I’m liking the colorado over the new taco !

[@Downtimelost]

YESSSS🫶🫶🤘🤘

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Great install man!! Ya getting the add a leaf in while alligning all of them was annoying lol but overall pretty simple job. You killed it. Looks great.

[@Downtimelost]

Thank you thank you !! I’m sure your install will be more legit ! Hahaha

[@TonyTheTechnician]

@Downtimelost nah I think you did great!! When you first told me about it you made it sound like it wasn't going to be good. You lied 🤣 it was a very informative video. 👍 mine is very similar lol

[@cedricbernardiii]

Hell yeah brother!! Good old bonding time with your pops and making improvements. Peak is estimating more towards March now for UCAs and coilovers, so I'm waiting on that. Found the OEM fender flares so I'll be drilling and mounting them up when I get a free weekend

[@Downtimelost]

Hell yeah send pics when u install !! My old man was hella pissed he wanted to watch the football game 😂😂

[@cedricbernardiii]

😂😂😂 sounds like some shit my dad would be butthurt about too. And I'll send some pics on fb of the process. Have a good buddy who's a body man/painter at a gmc dealership so he's gonna help me out

[@Downtimelost]

@@cedricbernardiii yessss! send pics I was thinking about the same thing

[@cedricbernardiii]

About to take care of some yard work, but I'll send you part numbers and the link where I ordered from later today

[@cheryl814]

How much money have you put into your truck since you bought it thanks

[@Downtimelost]

Mmmm not sure but upgrades are the best part.!

[@H0CKEY604]

Did you do a diff drop after your 2-1 kit ?

[@Downtimelost]

Nope ! And I haven’t had a issue yet cv angels are still good

[@H0CKEY604]

@@Downtimelostya my 2023 ZR2 is on a 2-1 LevelUp kit and the diff drop been ordered but after measuring my axle angle and how minimal the change was I am in no hurry to install my drop now 😋

[@Downtimelost]

@@H0CKEY604 yeah you should be chillin I wheel thing thing every weekend and never had a problem 👍

[@H0CKEY604]

@@Downtimelost100% , after watching all your DirtyOutDoors Adventures I feel confident in it not being necessary. 😋

[@Downtimelost]

@@H0CKEY604 😂😂😂 I love it , “dirty out door adventures” 😂😂

[@Blancotrailbosscolorado]

Is that a full size spare under your truck?

[@Downtimelost]

Nah oem , it’s pretty much useless I keep it just incase I get into a pickle , I’m waitin a rear tire swing out bumpers and then I’ll get a full size spare !

[@Blancotrailbosscolorado]

Oh gotcha yeah I’m on the same boat. Gonna try removing the heat shield to see if I can fit it under there if not then ill have to get a mount or something

[@RossMalagarie]

Did you notice the ride on the road being any stiffer after adding the extra leaf?

[@Downtimelost]

Negative, I believe it’s because I have so much weight it the rear it offsets it !

[@monocogenit1]

Rough country kinda sucks. Not really known for quality stuff. Also, if those bump stops are longer, articulation will be less, but if you've added bunch of wait to your truck, might be worth it to you.

[@Downtimelost]

Yeah this was when nothing was out for a lift kit lol and the bumps are way more squishy so less rough on impact!

[@monocogenit1]

@@Downtimelost cool, nice truck

[@adamutic]

The ending is lit!!🪂 Till next time😎🏜️

[@Downtimelost]

Hahah yes !! We gotta get Wheelin more often!! 😂😂🤘
