:Wow1: cannot believe I missed this one, nice build! Love the softopper and I believe that is the first I've seen for the NNNBS silvy's. I wanted to (and will be) doing the same thing so I'm glad to see it does work and looks dang nice too. Had one on my Tacoma awhile back and loved it. Looking forward to seeing how this all plays out...

Here are some photos from new years! We had an enjoyable time in Anza-Borrego! Silvy and the 2-Hundy performed great. I did the have the electric fans go out unfortunately as well as cracked the radiator from a little too much air action. If anyone has ideas for a replacement i'd love to hear it!
Happy New Years all!

What height do you have your coil-overs set at? I am looking to do something similar with my NNBS silverado. Love the Build, I think it looks amazing being low with those 35's

I set the coil-overs to bring the truck up 2.5"s i will get measurements of the threads if that's what you're looking for!

I would love that, If you could. I am planning on doing almost the same setup to my 2013 very soon.

Thank you i'm using X2 S2 Pro, LED Work/Scene, Amber, Flush Mount and i have to so that they have been unbelievably helpful for camping and off-roading. I wanted a light that would be mounted higher up i just didn't have the real estate! Thank you for the kind words!

Very nice build, truck looks great! I don't recall if you mentioned it but is your truck 4x4? If so, any issues running the coilovers and 35s (tie rods holding up ok, CV angles, etc.)? I'd like to do something similar with my '11 Sierra in the future and would love to get feedback from guys already running the setup. Thanks and keep posting up your adventures and pics, always a good read!

Thank you! My truck is unfortunately a 2wd with a limited slip, you blew my cover
haha. So far i haven't ran into any issues with ball joints failing or tie rod ends binding, i have a buddy with a 4wd truck in the 07-13 body that has his on 35s and a bit higher on a fox coil and his is doing fine as well. I really need to dedicate a bit more time because i feel like i've done quite a bit to this truck that is undocumented. What i'm getting at is that i'm happy people are finding interest in this thread, and if there is ever anything you guys would like me to do a write up on that i've accidentally forgotten to feel free to let me know and i will try and whip something up!
