Good to see a full size truck build! 🤙

Silverado overlanding!!! Love it!

I have a 2017 set up for overland and camping, nice to see another Silverado out there!

Great video! I used to have a Silverado Z71 and loved it. I was kinda talked into a JKU Rubicon for their capability, I am enjoying it but am starting to rethink the Silverado because I really miss the room and I’m really a Chevy guy. I love what you are doing with yours, it’s inspiring . Thanks for sharing and I’m looking forward to more.

FYI: I was replacing the ignition coil rail in my 2000 Jeep Wrangler and, of course, I broke the plug that was against the FIRE WALL!!!!! Aghhhhhhh! Anyway, a friend of mine told me, "Don't cut the wires just get a new plug and remove the wires from the new plug. Then use the new plug with the EXISTING wires. It took me 3 minutes once I had received the plug that I ordered online. The dealership could have done that for you,........thank you for taking the time to make the video.

Greetings from the East Coast (Maine to be specific)! Just wanted to drop a comment and let you know that you are the motivation for me to build my 2014 Chevy for Overland. The Mrs. and I have been big into our Jeeps and rock crawling for several years, but my truck has so much more room and is much more comfortable. So thank you, for doing what you do! Keep up the amazing work! I foresee your channel hitting 500k before the year is up. Can’t wait for the next video!

Your giving me great ideas for my 18 Silverado z71. Keep the videos coming. BFG ko2 are great tires and very quiet on the road.

Good to hear someone's got to save up for suspension. SO many of these videos are like "So I'm building a prerunner with 4" King long travel suspension...." or "Here's my new Earthroamer tour..." Lol.

Dope finally a Silverado channel where you hit the trails. No rich kids mall crawling.

Love this! I have a 2015 Sierra as my overland build, thanks for the awesome overview and tips.

Me too! A Chev full size!! About time not a Tacoma!!well done!!!!!!!

I’m on my way to purchase a trail boss, for the purpose of over landing. I’m so pumped. I’m glad to see a full size Silverado out there doing it. Keep the videos coming!

BDS suspension man, no questions asked warranty and one of the best kits out there

My dad has an older 70's gmc truck & put a rough country kit on & all I can say is it lives up to the name rough 😆

Love the videos. The only Silverado overlanding rig I found on KZfaq. Thanks for the video and for sharing. I've been building mine to do weekend trips and I'd like my 2010 z71 1500 to be like yours.

Love this, hard to find silverado overlanders. Badass build bro and nice editing, the editing u did when u were opening the boxes and packages was super sick

yeeeew we did it! such a rad build as well

Truck is lookin sweet. Love the bumper

Great video! Truck looks rad! 🤙🏼

That's cool man tell everyone I said thank you for cleaning up. Awesome!!

Very nice ! Dometic makes a stellar fridge, great back seat idea too, keep the videos flowing bud

I've had plugs break on all kinds of things. Sometimes the plastic tabs have a defect in them when made (air bubble) or they get old. All I do is use a small amount of permetex red silicone around the base of the plug this keeps the water out and keeps it held in place but will still be able to un-plug it when needed.

I have that telescoping ladder. Awesome ladder 👌

I'm new to this channel, I'm really digging it ,,,

I’m running Nitto Ridge Grapplers I highly recommend them

Love that truck... nice set up.

Great work man 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Hey great job with the videos, glad to see you are wheeling a Silverado. Subscribed!

Love that front bumper! Its like between a nfab bare bumper and one of those crazy big obnoxious bumpers

You need the dometic in the bed. Look at a fridge slide, those are pretty cool.

Well done on the bed slide organizer! Can't wait to see how you put that together. Been tempted to pick up the Decked system. I just installed the Diamondback HD bed cover on my Silverado Midnight edition. Best DT

RBP repulsor mt Rx. I love mine, quiet mud terrains and they’re cheap

I also drive a 2017 Silverado so this was great to see. Just subbed and liked.

Pretty sweet rig, nice work!

I did the rough country 3.5inch knuckle kit, i fit some 305/55/20 on a 12in wide wheel -44 offset and its really helped when we went off roading already. I opted for their n2o front shocks to match and it allows me not to run that strut spacer and i have no noise. Great video tho and i like how your truck is coming along

I have same truck & lift. But I got rc upper control arms with my lift & no problem with over extending. Luckily we didn't breathe power steering plug.

Badass truck!

Good job

Nice video, thanks for sharing ✌

I love the diy stove top, you could at some cheap sheet metal around it to keep the wood from getting discolored

Love your channel. I rarely ever see full-sized trucks go overlanding around here. I have an '18 silverado that I'm looking to make a street/lite overland build out of and have watched multiple of your videos for ideas.

Great work on the DIY setup! I miss my Suburban... 300,000 miles with very little issues and it took me to some extremely remote locations. I just replaced her with a 2019 Tacoma and saving money for a new buildout.

Love your rig! I am about a year out from buying my dream truck and I want to make a 1500 truck rig. You have my dream build here! Subscribed for more quality content!

I have a 2018 GMC Sierra, but I was thinking about going to a Cummins to build. Your videos have me thinking maybe not. Nice build man.

295/70r17 toyo open country m/t. That's what I got on mine and I love them!!.

I have a 07 Silverado with same lift kit but I bought the one with the upper control arms I have had no problems with it no rubbing or Knox if you didn’t cut the bump stops out that is what is Knocking knocking. I was able to put 33x10.5 in tiers with no rubbing drives like it did when I drove it home from dealer you go wider you might need different wheel with more back spacing.

Love the build, I wanted to explore options for an overland build that wasn’t a Jeep and I’ve always had silverados! Got yourself a new sub

Pretty sure most ifs lifts are all brackets just to keep that cv angle. Can’t say one company’s brackets are better than another. But getting into control arms and shocks well that’s the Cush ride. Nice truck I have similar a 2014 gets worked pretty hard I love it. Happy trails dude!!!

Enjoyed seeing you with trail recon. From a Chevy fan Look forward to watching more

very cool to see something different than the norm with these trucks, i have essentially the same truck with an RTT. not very common

Awesome build man! New to the channel. Subscribed!

Sick

You need some toyo R/T’s I’ve had good luck with them and they’ve done good for me never had an issue with them and I have 30k on them with about 65% tread life on them they’ve seen a lot more mud then anything else but once you get the wheel speed up they work great I’m running a 33x12.50r18 night end up trying to switch to a 285/75r18

Should put the tent on the roof top and store everything else in the bed of the truck. Bed of the truck is made for storing/holding stuff.

BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO2s best all around tire

You'll easily fit 33s under that lift. You'll want to measure your upper most travel clearance, turn in clearance and turn out clearance. Just grab a string and measure from the innermost parts of the tire tread and outermost parts if the tire tread, to the closest body/frame parts. Then put that string on a tape measure and write down your findings. Repeat for all four corners, vehicles are NOT perfectly symmetrical. Then go to Rims N Tires Wheel Size Comparer, enter in the size of tire, wheel size, wheel offset of your current set up (write down all those totals) then enter the NEW tires you're looking at, and see if they will clear. 👍

Truckee love sticker un tour truck look beatifool

If you want to save a few dollars and have absolutely no firmest issues AND run the stock wheels, you should look at the BF Goodrich TA K02’s in a 275/70/18. Out the door from Costco about 2 years ago for $860.00. It is 33.25 inches tall overall. Not quite as wide as what everyone else runs but, a few hundred dollars cheaper, snow and ice rated, quiet, durable, E load rating. I get between 12 and 15 mpg with little highway driving, 18-21 if mostly highway, with the Rough Country 2.5” front leveling kit. Have over 40,000 miles on this set and they are going to last at least another 10-15,000 and I drive on some really messed up roads here in SoCal/Mexico. If you go with the MudTerrains, especially if you daily drive your truck, you will lose further gas mileage, may not get the snow rating, won’t last as long, louder, no warranty and negligible off road capabilities. Save your money and buy a full size spare and a compressor and learn how to manage your tire pressures to maximize your tires performance.

Nice to see something other than a jeep

Bro. Love your set up. After buying my 16 Silverado 1500 Ltz and wanting to get into over landing I was a little nervous because I don't see many Silverados around built like this. You've inspired me. What is the truck bed rack system you have ?

Dude sick truck. I just bought a Silverado Z71 and glad I came across your channel. Been trying to find sick full-size builds. It is awesome to see Tacoma builds, but I don’t own a Tacoma 😆.

3.5" lift is fine if it has differential drop. If I does buy the upgraded upper control arm and it will clear the strut better and also give a better range of motion. Then save up for either coilovers or a full lifted strut which RC also offers. I have a 10 with 3.5 and will be getting Kings. You Should be able clear 35's fine with OE wheels my buddy has a 14 with 3.5 inch level on 35x12.50 just remember bigger tire might hit when articulating. Just my 2 cent

great channel 👍 and nice videos

Hey man! I have a 2018 I’m getting a lift and A good lift is a BDS kit 6 inch around 1800 for the kit and 700 for the Instillation, all under warranty for a life time. I got a 8 inch lift for a total of 3,000. And tires and rims around 400 a rim and 350 for tires that are off road, total around 6,000.

Recommend Cooper AT or Mud terrain or the Falcon wild peak MT awesome tires

Nice video!

Love your videos man! Where was the general location of this video? It looked picturesque

Look at readylift lifts and the nitto ridge grapplers. I do this combo almost everyday for customers and everyone raves about how nice it is on or offroad

The Joshua Tree BLM cleanup was an awesome effort.

Nice video. I would go with the BFG KO2s if I were you. I have the duratracs now that came on my truck but I used to have the KO2s on my Tacoma and miss them! They’re so much quieter and bad ass off road. Once I beat these up for awhile I’ll upgrade. Sweet truck btw! Goals!!

i will refrain from saying what i feel about chevy trucks...lol. but it is nice to see large over landers. get some good parts. you get what you pay for

I am going to backpack off the guy who recommended the ko2's. I'd recommend the KM2's -they are a hybrid between mud and all terrains though tend to lean more towards the AT side of a tire.

I am really liking the BajaKits prerunner kit with a set of Deaver leafs. Their race front end and cantilever rear look nice but, I don’t know how well it would work on a fully loaded rig.

I like your setup specially the roof rack. Where did you get the front runner roof rack? I can't seem to find it online. Can you tell me the exact brand/model? Thanks.

You should seriously consider an air lift suspension, I have it and its amazing

I am running a 305 70 17 they had a bit of rubing. Nothing crazy they are close to a 34 11.5. Awesome truck by the way man!

If you havent done so already. I would highly recommend the Dirt king boxed upper control arms and the fox coilovers. I utilized the fox 2.0 series coilovers in the front with the dirt king upper controls arms on my 14' silverado along with a 2in lift spacer. This allowed me to keep the preload on the coilover low and keep the ride quality very nice along with retaining a 3in lift. Soon i will be adding a front differential spacer to correct the CV angels due to the 3in of lift. This would also help with your roughcountry lift. If you have any questions about all of this feel free to reach out. id be happy to help!

Awesome seeing the progress on the heavy Chevy! Keep it up man! What size bed is that on the truck? And what watch were you rockin? I myself have a 17’ short bed 4x4 can’t wait to start getting out there

Need a link for solar stuff! Bad ass

Yo your from the 805!! Dope

Falken wild peak bro!

Tires falken wildpeak tires are amazing tires. You will rub with 34in if you run the set up you are running. I suggest looking at mazzula offroad he has some really bad ass shit and not to badly priced. I run his upper arms on my 17 Silverado. And I love them.

Thanks is for picking up all that trash!

Falken wild peak at3w, amazing tire

Great video, thanks for posting. I plan on retiring and full time overlanding with my 2015 GM Sierra 1/2 ton pulling a travel trailer. The travel trailer will be set up as my base camp and then I'll be taking day and/or occasional overnight trips with the truck exploring farther into the back country. I am curious what high quality 4 +/- inch lift kit you would recommend that would allow for good articulation both front and back. I would also love to find a good quality aluminium winch bumper but am not having any luck. I want to stick with aluminium as my truck is going to be at its max GVWR when loaded and pulling the trailer. Thanks in advance and hopefully we'll see you on the trail someday.

Hey brother great videos enjoy watching them! What kind of tent rack does your friend in the raptor have?? Would like to know the brand, looks bad ass on the raptor. Keep making videos man

Nice build. I have the frontrunner bed rack as well that bolts to factory rails. I don’t trust the weight load. Did you have frontrunner custom make load legs and rails to mount on top of the bed sides? Thanks

Thanks for the Video i am from germany and might need your help with finding the right truck for me here in germany we havent such a great possibility wich all the usw trucks.

I like your vids and your motivation. Wish I had your video editing skills. I see big things for this channel.

When you go to a larger Tire are you storing your spare on top of the cab?

Hello Lost Sasquatch I hope you are well. Can you help me whit a a doubt, I have similar truck Z71 and I cant find information of capacity. I want to install this kind of roof camping but on top of the cabine, Can I do that whit supports of thule??? Nice video thank you a lot if you can give me any information.... See you in your videos

Peep the All Day IPA, local brewery to me in Michigan!

Ditch the 18" wheels. 17" max with off road tires. Max sidewall . MT Deegan 38 AT's

How much did you spend about, minus the truck. So the added upgrades?

What bedrack is that and how tall is it undecided on what height have a smittybilt xl looks around same size tent

I see the 805 licenses plate & the Cal Poly sticker. Where you from? I’m from Tulare but am looking to move to the Pismo area soon.

Bigger tires and it is the perfect Silverado. Looking forward for the 2019 model?

where can I find this epic footage at 3:46?

What do you do for a living that allows you to do this!? I have a 2020 trail boss I’m trying to convert to overland and I just can’t keep up with the money! Awesome build man #goals
