BEST MODS for your 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 (5.3L V8) | Truck Central

[@TruckCentral]

Who else has a Silverado and what mods does yours have??

[@Jack-b5o6r]

Truck Central I have a 15 Silverado 5 inch rough country lift Fuel Rims Power Amp Steps KN CAI Cat Back Flowmaster outlaw exhaust Fender flares It’s my daily

[@HellcatDreaminJosh]

Truck Central Great Video Nicks Silverado Z71 is Awesome and I hope he does more Mods to it

[@neilschroeder9738]

Looks great! I put a ranch hand legend brush guard on and mounted a 36 inch light bar inside the supports.

[@flameout00]

Just picked up my black 2017 Z71 a few weeks back. So far I've only done tint, running boards, Diablo tune and Line-X bedliner. Hoping for some tow mirrors soon (Boost auto?) and swap out the blue bowties for black, among other things

Never used to like these trucks but honestly these new ones look really good in red & those are honestly the perfect mods for these things

[@jordanwilson1336]

2016, 1500 cold air intake, Headers, and exhaust! Long tube Headers made a huge difference in power

[@cobyporschifer221]

Blacking out the emblems makes all the difference ! Sweet🤘

[@toolhead147]

These trucks are beautiful. I have just about the same truck but single cab blackout edition.

[@danpuckett2617]

Beautiful truck! Nice work on all the mods and the consistency of the red and black theme!

[@ChampsAlwaysBreakBread]

Beautiful truck! Sits tall to only have 2inch leveling kit. Guess that’s all I needed.

[@adam_mawz_maas]

@Liconic D Also a Z71, so its got a 2" factory lift.

[@davidholmberg1489]

Looks like you care more about how your truck looks than how it performs. You remind me of my old friend JonJon lol. Typical city guy like yourself and we talked him into actually using his truck for what it’s intended for. The first stick that scratched his truck sounded like the imitation from the first ‘nightmare on elm street’ and JonJon turned about 3 shades of white. I say to him; don’t worry Jonny boy, it’s only the first scratch that really bothers you the most! 😱

[@robertdean6222]

That’s why these trucks got so expensive because of wanna be’s like John boy !

[@joeykemp3720]

Hater

[@bauerca3263]

Ya I’m sure the airbags he got so the truck doesn’t squat as much while towing is just for show 😂

[@xELITECHEERIOS]

Lol cry buddy 😂 bet you live in a double wide because you wanna be a real country boy 😂😂

[@Erron-w9r]

The truck on this videos is still perfectly workable 😂. U sound mad

[@m.a.d.pandagaming6895]

Got a 2018 GMC Sierra Z71 6.2l, myself. Picked it up about a month ago from a Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep dealership...the sold it to me as a 5.3l, unknowingly. Gonna de-chrome it asap...never liked all that shiny shit on my vehicles. Looks cheap and gaudy. Just got N-Fab rock rails installed, with the really nice removable steps. Getting the 2" level kit and 17" Fuel Zephyr beadlocks with BF Goodrich Baja AT 39's, deleted the muffler and removed the flapper valve (only do on the 6.2l, not as nice sounding on a 5.3l), ordered an S&B cold air (the only cold air you should use because it's box sealed and is a real CAI instead of that fake crap like K&N). Then getting a top LED bar and steel front and rear bumpers.

[@DroneWolfMedia]

Your truck looks great Nick! Thanks for sharing. 👍

[@iainf6]

Great filming Lauren 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💕

[@Adman-p4j]

Love everything that you've done with this. Exactly what I've done with mine.

[@lostbetrayed]

Great video! I'm glad Truck Central is back 🤘🏻 what are your guy's thoughts on the 1500 Duramax?

[@TruckCentral]

We’ll have one on the channel soon (haven’t driven one yet)... it’s a great option if you tow a lot. It’s really tuned more for fuel economy from the factory but a few mods should really wake it up.

[@lostbetrayed]

@@TruckCentral 👍🏻

[@sbc_jake_9677]

Gotta say that tailgate looks really cool with the wrap. Is that a 6 or 8 speed? I may be looking into getting a 14-19 chevy to pull my trans am

[@J2498]

Truck is beautiful. Nice stance. Great mods!

[@392Cherokee]

The best mod hands down for our ‘16 Silverado LTZ is the 2.9 Whipple on it. Also has a Corsa Sport side exit exhaust. Only running about 6 lbs...but it’s night and day difference from stock.

[@rasputin7633]

One would hope so after spending nearly 8k on a mod.

[@jordymiranda5665]

Can you add a link to the exact exhaust you have along with cold air intake please. Truck looks great!

[@dsmith584]

Great video beautiful truck! On the headlights, you just tinted with film?

[@mybaranowski]

looks and sounds naaasty ! What exhaust is this?? i love it

[@ZrowZ4]

I was wondering the same thing about the exhaust

[@edwardporter6104]

Nice reflection in the tailgate

[@jbmeats2323]

Great video bro. And nice truck as well

[@edwardhardy2883]

I knew your truck looked familiar I see your truck every single day

[@michaelscott7482]

Same music as "Off The Ranch".

[@SuzukiKid400]

Michael Scott and TFLtruck

[@daniilivanov9601]

what is the music haha thanks!

[@tylermalott3667]

I was thinking the same thing

[@loganfrigginfrick3531]

I have an older 2007.5 GMC Sierra with the 4.8l and it would be interesting to see a video related to this one but more about easy performance that most videos won’t talk about like like upgraded spark plugs or performance throttle body

[@peterkroeker753]

You're going to need cam intake and turbo lol

[@The1Karking]

Great Truck! 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@ONI_MoversLLC]

Hey Boss dope video 💰 I just got a 2015 chevrolet silverado. Any suggestions on 1st improvements I should make?

[@JasonWoodard]

My 2018 Midnight Edition came with the front lower bumper piece in black! Nice truck man

[@Gyasi316]

Dunno if you still have the truck, but was installing the mirrors into the wiring a difficult task ??

[@margaro2610]

Doing a suspension upgrade coil overs and rear shocks are probably the best thing to do over all modifications. The stock rancho shocks are garbage. Just put eibach pro truck 2.0 adjustable front coilovers and rear shocks on my 15’ GMC Sierra after 85k miles with the stock suspension. It made me feel like I just drove off the dealership lot with my sierra all over again.

[@miketr732]

Nice truck man. Going to start souping mine up.

[@x-man5056]

Other than the tires sticking out beyond the fenders, that's a really good looking truck.

[@bigdbassn4489]

Looks great! What percentage tint did you use on your headlights, driving lights and fog lights please? Thanks again!

[@TheDex302]

I am also thinking of gloss black wrapping my front chrome skid plate. Yours looks great! Are you a pro vehicle wrapper? I would like to to do it myself, can you put me in the right direction to learn how?

[@uwont4gitme]

That's one RAW ASS looking Truck dammm!!!!!!!

[@kc-6837]

Nice truck!

[@danielsoto8738]

The color is sick love the theme red with the black beautiful truck bro congrats

[@shafercox8541]

How do you like the Mickey Thompson tires? Thinking about getting some for my truck but not many people run them.

[@marchall1997]

can u provide a link to your step up bars and the exhaust?

[@maplerider57]

Where did you get the mirrors? I have the same truck and hate the mirrors! Truck looks great

[@dominickm5018]

Which bola exhaust did you go with? how does that exhaust sound when the truck switches to v4 (AFM) mode?

[@drummerboyb.4009]

Did you have trouble installing the tow mirrors? Were there any additional wiring to what was there already? By the way: real nice truck Bro 👍👍👍👍

[@timmathias3576]

Love the tailgate, might have to do that

[@roxbery25]

That's a sweet truck

[@charlesmcgee447]

What is the link for your tow mirrors on the Chevy Silverado 1500. Great looking truck.

[@justinschnepf]

Get the AFM disabler. Just got it for my 2019 and its night and day difference with performance

[@Zer0PhxGvn]

Have you had any problems since?

[@justinschnepf]

@@Zer0PhxGvn nope

[@deno-yi4yz]

Nice truck. Love the shirt!

[@Rogerlaird-wm6hz]

What about the range to keep it in v8 at all times i have one on my 18 silverado and i love it especially with it being lond going from v8 to v4 sounds terrible

[@itsTHEFIREDOG]

what set up do you have for your cold air intake and where did you get the box for it?

[@vincefairleigh6899]

The tinted lights... looks great but not legal in some places and dangerous.. unless you never drive at night

[@Velofire_21]

Uh dude I literally want everything u have on ur truck for my next baby boy!

[@mattshaw3225]

This truck is awesome

[@ryanharvick4037]

I I could send a pic of my truck I would. But the only difference is your mirrors, taillights and the wrap on the tail gate thy looks good af and I plan to do! Looks good!

[@CitizenJournoTN]

I’m deciding between a ‘16-‘18 Silverado lt and 2020 Tacoma. I know Toyota is reliable af. Idk about v8 Chevy trucks. I’m gonna have it for at least 6 years from purchase. Any info on common problems/reliability of the Chevy would be much appreciated.

[@murphtheirishmanmurphy7268]

valspar89 I sold my 2000 Silverado with 150k miles on it and the 5.3L V8 is one of the best engines ever built! My 2014 is amazing!

[@zoobrizz]

valspar89 Toy truck? If you have to ask. You deserve the girl truck. Tight ass

[@jthoske]

I have factory 20s on my '18 Crew Cab Z71 1500. With airlift bags in the back I'm about 3" lower in the front. Would you still recommend a 2-2.5" level kit or should I look at a 3" one? Great looking truck!

[@T_RAW305x]

Looks great it’s my favorite color as well. I have a 2014 any recommendations on some replacement headlights?

[@parrishschoenherr9209]

Morimoto heads and tails just got some for mine

[@ddao52]

@@parrishschoenherr9209 saving up for those as rn =) so niceeeee

[@marcop6398]

What kind of cool air do you have on the truck? I’ve looked some up but none of them come with that glass cover. What do u recommend as far as brands or even cost.

[@walterescobar3555]

Beautiful truck! With all the mods what did that do to your bumper to bumper warranty?

[@stephenarchibald9805]

How short is that guy? The truck looks huge. I have almost same setup. 2 " levelling kit but I put 33s on the stock rims and have no issue with rubbing

[@erice5429]

Nice video. Thanks. However, I am not feeling the rims neither the mirrors. The rest is great. Thanks again..

[@AllThingsMech]

I saw a light bar tucked into the front grille. Does your truck have those stupid active grille shutters? My '18 unfortunately does. I bought a pair of single row light bars for it, so I'm trying to see if I can shoehorn them in there without blocking the shutters and making the computer angry.

[@Quinns_Cars]

Looks great!!! Do you have a link to those exact tails???

[@Quinns_Cars]

And also what's the exhaust??

[@Random_guy803]

I run 33x12.5-22 and no rubbing 2.5 inch leveling kit 2018 Silverado Centennial edition

[@Thomas-hw4qf]

My 2018 came from the factory with nearly 33s on the 22 inch rims. With the two inch level you can fit a narrower 33 with no mod. With a 3 inch lift you can fit 35s and no rub with a north cal tuck.

[@kill3rhorsepow3r51]

What exhaust do you have my is a 5.3 v8 to and I want that aggressive sound like yours

[@trevorsimmons6214]

it’s a corsa exhaust

[@MrGordo5000]

Corsa? How do we know this?

[@Whoyoulookinatfoo]

@@MrGordo5000 The logo on the exhast tips

[@rizescrappy8729]

Was your truck rake 2in off from the factory or was it 1in? Most are 2 which is why most leveling kits are 2in. However mine is only a 1in difference from the front to the back. I believe my truck did come with some off-road package from the factory (can't remember as I bought it as the 2nd owner). What would you recommend I do to just level without having squat?

[@thelarryus1]

The best and first mod on these trucks should be AFM delete kit. New cam/lifters. Probably runs $2500

[@randysaylor8577]

Nice truck looks great

[@jeffbegay9771]

If you lift your truck in the front, did you change out your upper control arm??

[@Simply_Anthony83]

I just got a 14 2500 and going with the red and black theme.

[@mauriliolibrado8857]

How is the AC? Does it get cold enough in 100° weather?

[@coleton9265]

My mirrors don’t have the turn signals already in them do you have a tutorial kit how to re wire it or is it just plug and play?

[@heavytrucks5237]

Call boost auto they have the kits you need

Just bought a 2018 today

[@-Hood-]

I just got a 2016 Silverado 1500 LTZ all white with stainless steel trim/accents, 30k miles on it, the bowties are gold but I think they look pretty good since the truck is white, I'm debating whether to switch them for black bowties

[@zoobrizz]

The 1500s do come with the tow mirrors actually just need the towing package mine has them from factory

[@Builttolastdenali]

hey man so I have a 2018 sierra denali 1500. I put 3" fox 2.5 coilovers in the front with fabtech uniball upper control arms and fox 2.0 shocks in the rear. it looks great and is definitely a better ride; however, I get a popping noise on the driver side and it feels like it is under my feet. I am also running 305/55/20 nitto ridge grapplers with fuel coupler rims with a -12 offset. so like basically your same setup except im having the popping issue at low speeds when I hit any sharp bump or on bad roads. any ideas what could be the issue?

Where you get the harness for the tow mirrors to work with lighting mine a 18 LT Z71 I added the tow mirrors and I’m looking for the harness since my truck only has the power and defrost on mirrors on stock
