regular and z71

[xtremez3]

What isthe diffrence between the regular 1500 and the 1500 z71 offroad?? like tire sizes? skid plates? suspension?? what all comes with the z71 offraod that doesnt come with the regular 1500?

[Mark_in_Tulsa]

Shocks and skid plate, and the sticker.

 

 

I don't know if it actually cheaper to buy a regular 4x4 and add the shocks and skidplate. Anyone price that?

[originalone]

the Z71 option is only $175... skid plate, sticker, shocks are bilstein

I thought the Air box was bigger also but I don't think that is the case.

 

Funny how First thing I do when I buy a truck that is a Z71 I remove the sticker, You can put a sticker on anything.

 

Is there a VIN Number that denotes Z71?

I thought if you put those flame stickers on, you get that extra 10 horsepower...or was it those stupid japaneese symbols......

When I sold my truck they told me it wasn't a Z71 because the stickers weren't on it.

 

I said well you can put the stickers on any vehicle... I asked if I put a NOS sticker on the back if they would give me a extra 2k bucks because it had NOS..

 

They shutup

Theres also different bump stops on it. And the locking differential comes standard.

The Infamous G80 Locking Diff, what a treat, mine kinda sorta worked for the first 20K miles or so, the problem is if you get this option then you can't put a real locker in without changing the carrier, so now I'm looking for an open carrier so that I can put a real locker back there. Save your money and pass on the G80.

ok, w.t.f. is up with the 99' to 06' Z71 option, the ground clearence is unequal of that of the front, does anybody know why, do you think they will correct this with the new generations?

[timskfx400]

all chevys are lower in the front than in the rear. my 97 sierra was exactly the same way. get some ford 2" keys and itll level it out.

[opsbear7]

I have always wanted to see chevy really take the Z71 to the next step...In my opinion it shoudl be a limited package that includes

 

3" lift/level

off road tires

after market exhaust

skids

step ups

sticker

clearance lamps

4.10 only

shocks

sweet interior

 

i think if they did that they would gain buyers who just want a big and bad truck just for looks but not for use which is what the average GM buyer would be interested....now keep in mind this package would run an extra 7-10,000 dollars in the end but it would be worht it!!

All trucks sit higher in the rear. They do so for carrying loads.

My 2002 YukonXL is auto-leveling (not Autoride).

If I put on Ford keys to level it out, will this screw up the auto-leveling shocks ?
