2007 Sivlerado Single Cab 4X4 need basic upgrade help
Please slam me and point me to a noobie forum if my questions are too basic but this is what I want and I have not clue how to get there.
My truck is stock and I want some kind of kit to raise the front end to be level with the back. I also want to go with some larger after market rims and tires that do good in sand but the truck will see 98% street so I want them quiet. Basically I need to know what kit I need and where to get it and also what size rim and tire do I need. Please provide links if you can.
Thanks
Hugh

Hrm...looks like I may be able to do it myself.
That truck in the pic looks nice. I am assuming it is 4X4 and he took off the sticker.

The back is high enough. I dont want to raise it.

The kit is going in tomorrow along with a tune and intake.
Now I am looking at rims and tires. So your buddy have a 12.5" Tire on a 8.5" rim? That is a 4" difference. It that common? If I can do this that would be cool.

I have bfg at and they work great offroad and are super quiet on road
If you want a taller lift that costs more but doesnt change the stock ride quality try a 4" spindle lift.

Or here are some leveling kits that r cheaper atleast check out the pics so u can get and idea.

Did the CCM 2.5" spacer.
Here it is

The front is a little higher than in the pics cause the truck is on an incline as it sits.
I like it. I may do rims and tires. I dont know...part of me is thinking about a new Camaro SS and a little truck so I am not spending too much money right away.
It does get a tune on Friday though.
