You’ve got your rig set up! That’s awesome. I wish I could delete mine already but with the problems I’ve had so far, I’m trying to do anything to avoid voiding my warranty

The open tube design should eliminate that risk in theory. I haven’t seen anything about the transmission skid causing problems but I also don’t want to risk my transmission overheating out in this heat. I’m wondering if an AEV transmission skid would work with the rest of the SuperSkidz setup

The AEV skids are really nice. I was surprised at how comparable they are to the CBI as far as price. Does your Colorado have the duramax in it?

Have you experienced any higher transmission temperatures with the SuperSkidz? They don’t seem to be slotted like the CBI ones and my main concern is my transmission overheating without air flow. I live in Texas where it’s been up to 107 degrees lately

That’s the plan! I plan to go with the SuperSkidz for the undercarriage

Thanks for the response! I love the way they look and it’s good to hear someone else has good experiences with them to justify buying some

It seemed like forever without it. It originally went in with turbo problems then during the turbo replacement, the tech broke a sensor on the manifold and ended up having to replace both the sensor and the manifold and there was a backorder on the manifold that took 4 weeks to get in. I didn’t...

After 6 weeks of my truck being at the dealership, I finally got it back and installed the KB Voodoo rack and Roam Adventure Co RTT.

How are you liking the Wildpeaks? I’m trying to decide between them and the KO2s

Midland, TX here!

I have a 2017 Chevy Colorado Z71 Duramax. Only a 1” front end spacer and light bar installed so far

I ordered the 2” kit but only put on the 1” spacer because I figured putting the bed rack and roof top tent would leave it level. I also didn’t want to break down the strut to install so it definitely saved me some time and effort. The 1” spacer made a difference on the appearance as well

I got an alignment a week after installation and it was pretty far off. But only time will tell on how much it effects it

I went with the rough country 1” spacer and removed the air dam. I was getting about 30mpg with the air dam and without the spacer but it has dropped to about 28mpg. I’m also wanting to put more aggressive tires on it but I plan to run the factory tires as long as possible. I live in west Texas...

I hadn’t ever heard of that trail but it sounds awesome. I may have to try it myself!
