  • Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

    Why are there so few Silverado overland rigs?

    I have always had great results with rancho products. dating back to the lift I put on my 78 Blazer.

    Why are there so few Silverado overland rigs?

    I use the portable ARB and prefer it since I have several vehicles. I converted it to Anderson 175A connectors and have the Warn QC on all my vehicles. As for tank, I run that in bed or on rack. For shocks I run Rancho Monotubes with 4" Rancho Lift. Factory fenders are fine. FYI mine is a 2002.

    Why are there so few Silverado overland rigs?

    I run a 2500HD as a overland vehicle, was not very hard to get any parts or find someone to do work I could not do.

    20 inch wheels pros and cons?

    Ok, that I agree with. Popular sizes are there, but the lesser sizes are not.

    20 inch wheels pros and cons?

    That is an aspect ratio issue, not a wheel size issue. Running a 20 inch wheel with a 45% aspect ratio is just as silly as running a 15 inch wheel with a 45% aspect ratio wrt to off-roading.

    20 inch wheels pros and cons?

    WUT? Almost every good/popular tire is available in a 20 inch version, BFG, Cooper, Goodyear, Toyo, etc.

    Wheel Spacers: YES or NO?

    I prefer spacers to lots of wheel offset. Also on many vehicles, like Chevy, you only need to put spacers on the rear to even things out. 240,000 miles on my Chevy, 50,000 on my jeep no issues.

    2018 TRD pro VS 2018 Chevy ZR2 for overlanding

    True, but OP did not mention cost as an issue. Been doing for 15 years, 70 miles round trip, 5 days a week. No big deal. Not sure where that rumor started, glad I did not believe it.

    2018 TRD pro VS 2018 Chevy ZR2 for overlanding

    Factory lockers would be a turnoff for me. I would rather open diffs and install ARBS or a Detroit.

    Tires you choose and why?

    Michelin gave me 75% off a new set. So at least they stood behind their warranty.

    Tires you choose and why?

    I have Goodyear MT/R on Hummer and Goodyear Silent Armor on jeep, both are outstanding but pricey. Had Michelins on my SUV they lasted 19000 miles. Had BFG/AT & MT on truck. They were good for 25000 miles. Brushed it off as I live several miles down a rock road. Well they paved it a few years...

    What would be your first MOD to a new Toyota Tacoma?

    First Mods for every vehicle I have purchased over the past 20 years: 1) Tint windows to legal maximum. 2) WeatherTec floor guards. 3) Vent Visors. 4) Verify full size spare tire. Most of these are done before it even leaves the lot.

    How do you fund your expeditions?

    There are basically three ways: 1) Come into money (Inheritance, Lotto, etc). 2) Work for money. 3) Bum a rides off friends.

    Duramax ZR2 Build

    Nice rig. The diesels have a small power band, they will benefit greatly from a gear correction. For tuners, try Bully Dog.
