Post your LIFTED 2WD setup & how you use it!

[crazywin]

Here's my 98 Chevy 2wd, v8 305. Main changes is a rear powertrax no slip locker, a front long travel control arms and lift spindles, got about 7" of lift before the coils sagged. homemade custom front bumper and rear cage/canopy/roofrack thing that I devised. I run it mostly on the beach, and light trails. But I thought I'd join all the subaru guys at a rallycross, here's some action shots.

98 Silverado with a 7.5 inch fabtech lift, ready to add 35 12.50 15 procomp at's, replacement bumper, milemarker 12,000lb winch, a cam, true dual flows, 3.93 in the rear, rockcrawler rims. use this bad boy as needed lots of exploring with my bud who has a 94 z71 with a 6inch lift. not too much mudding just climbing and trail riding and such. I try to treat it as much like a 4wd as i can

Hello all... I am really new to this so I hope it works... I just recently purchased a 2007 Chevy Silverado z71 2WD... I had a Chevy Silverado 2001 Z71 back several years ago too... The question is this... I was able to even the front end of the 01 Z71 to the back end by tightening some screws if I am not mistaken... Can I do this too with the new 07 chevy??? PLEASE let me know... Here is my email... Arutlos@aol.com

[chevycoonazz]

i didn't know they make 2wd z71's

[whiskeytown]

no you cant because those screws adjusted the torsion bars which you dont have,you have coil springs and to level it out you would need to buy coil spacers or new spindles...hope this helps

[arutlos]

yes it does... thanks.... and yes the 2007 trucks can come z71 or z71 4x4's... i have the look, hight, skid plate, tires, hitch and other things but just not the 4x4... thanks for the help tho...

[whiskeytown]

yeah they do have z71 2wd in 07...but all 2007 non classics have have coil springs even the 4x4s..

[arutlos]

well you seem to know your stuff... ok another question... I had dualed out my old z71 and it sounded great... I had flowmaster in it... now I read about the new super 44 or something of that sort... what do you think??? and if you have anyother cool **** or comments let me know... I'm really new to this...

[whiskeytown]

well i know alittle bit and theres some guys on here that will give you better answers,but thanks..about the flowmaster i have the 40 series dumped at the the axle with echo tips and it sounds pretty damn good, dont know much about the 44...my brother just got magnaflows on his 07 classic and its not that loud but has a great low rumble to it...and one more thing, if you have a specific question i think youll get more feed back if you start a thread outside of this one...i think most of the guys on here don't look at this one as much...but just ask and someone will give you an honest answer...good luck
