I’m about 2 1/2- 3 hours west of KC, in Kansas, sometime in the next few months I plan on testing out some equipment before I go on the TAT this june. I just have to decide where to go.

Hey @ChopprJock ! STL here too. I definitely need some Blues hockey in my life. I say that every year and when the season comes around again I get sidetracked and miss half the games.

Anyone around STL know of a reputable shop for lifts, wheels, tires, and camper shells?

Haha, same here...seems like I always catch a game about halfway thru the 3rd period!

I used Dalo Customs for the leveling kit on my 2019 Ranger...honestly do not know if I would go back to them for a full lift. They seem much more into the urban mall crawler approach. Nice guys though and the work was good, so YMMV.

I do not know a good place for the rest. I have used online places for my tires up to this point.

Yea. I feel like I'm surrounded by mall crawler shops. I'm sure they know what they're doing, but I worry they might lead me down the wrong direction.
I'm Googling like crazy. Starting to come across a few online shops for these things. Found an Icon stage 2 setup ($2500) that I think would work for my needs, but I feel like I can find a slightly less big named brand for a little less. Michael (Overland Bound) had talked about spending $900 on his setup a few years ago, and I feel like I should be able to cut the Icon cost in half.

Good lift isn’t cheap. Unfortunately.
But it all depends on what you’re wanting to do as well. I have an Icon stage 3.

Man...Chevy's just really don't have a presence in the off-road world. Half the suspension brands don't seem to have variations for them. One even had suspensions for a dang KIA but not Chevy! lol

that’s super easy. Let me set send some options out for you. Honestly if you’re halfway handy you can driveway install that.

2in GM Strut Leveling Kit (19-21 1500 PU)

or more budget-https://www.roughcountry.com/gm-leveling-lift-kit-1323.html?find=2020-chevy-silverado-1500-4wd-740495

obviously you can spend more money, but I’ve used rough country for years and had zero issues.


For example- the Mac daddy 3” fox fancy stuff -https://www.alligatorperformance.com/cognito-210-p0879-3-inch-performance-ball-joint-leveling-lift-kit-with-fox-ps-coilover-2-0-ifp-for-19-20-silverado-sierra-1500/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI2K_E_ouZ7gIVuz6tBh2svwpmEAQYASABEgJmrvD_BwE

Yea. The more I researched the more I thought, “Hell! I can do that!”
My buddy has a big shed and all the tools. He’s going to help me build a swing arm tire rack on the back too. I definitely want someone like him around though just in case. Knowing me, I’ll get halfway into it and come across an issue.
Thanks for any options you come across! I found Rough Country & Tough Country but I got the feeling those were more mall crawler brands. I haven’t gotten a chance to really research them though as I’ve been focused on the more popular ones like Old Man Emu, Bilstein, BDS, etc.

HellBent performance in Chesterfield will work on anything. Like most shops, they push the Jeep brand, as that is the most popular for bolt on mods. Doesn't mean they won't work on other brands. They will do things that Axleboy won't touch.
