Humm no blocks in the back!
I have some Emails out to Fabtech and CST to see if my truck is similar to the Auto trac set ups, I hope it is so i can put a 6inch on there with 35's!! :cool: :head:

I got word back from CST, they said it would use the same lift as any other 1500 truck, but you would need to get a new front drive shaft installed, kinda like the auto trac trucks but different he said. The Center diff, has the same mouting spots, but is is just a little shorter, requiring a longer drive shaft upfront if you lift it. CST said it was the same as an Escalade lift would be.

now I just need some one to photo crop my truck up on 35's with 17inch rims!!! to get a final opinion!
 
Atleast he searched :imo still :rofljest: at :"PM me if your interested" on a thread that is 6 years old.
 
AWD is better off road! Some AWD's do have Low Range. My Land Rover LR3 is AWD and it will go lots of places my 4x4 chevy would never make it. Plus it can go in water up to the top of the fender well.

AWd is NOT better offroad, its less effective. You dont have even distribution of power, a low range or control over it. Why do people get lockers? For the even distribution of power, the AWD eliminates that, your relying on the computer to make a call for you. No thanks. Im not saying its bad, it beats 2wd, but its a step behind a part time 4x4 case, not a step ahead. Why do you think the z71 has a part time case still? Not just autotrac with no 4hi or 4lo option?
