What roll pan is that? I wanted to do one but didnt know which one would fit my hitch, awesome lookin.

to the guys complaining about lowering a 4wd, get a life, you sound like a bunch of jealous little bitches. some people want their truck to work awesome where it is used 99% of the time (street) insteading of trying to be a badass 1% of the time.

Keys are easy to install, as long as the torsion bars aren't rusted and seized into the keys, like mine was. I could switch the keys back to stock in less than 30 mins.

Did you end up having to notch your frame??

That is the only thing keeping me from going down another couple inches.

Also, whats the part number for your hangars?

Absolutely Of all the mods that I've done, the lowering was the quickest, cheapest, and easiest, and has the biggest visual effect (combined with the wheels and tires...then the debadging)

My keys were fairly rusted too, but I hit them with some rust penetrant the night before, and a few shots with a hammer and brass punch took care of the rest

Lowering a Z71 is really no different than the SS trucks are from the factory. I can't see a problem with making your daily driven street truck more efficient, and better handling. Some people mod around purpose, not soley upon how it looks.
Truck is awesome IMO Black02Z71.

You'd be amazed on how much girls be jockin' the nuts with a lifted ride(especially a truck with air ride). Love to see them fools that own hondas, love to see thier girl jockin the nuts'.

BUT HEY, your truck,do what you wanna do with it, I could give a ****, f%$# it up if you want to,do whatever you want to do. BE HAPPY.(Imma lil drunk)
