There are usually more Z71's to choose from on the lot, so you are more likely to find all of the accessories you want in one wearing the badges.

keys
the leaf springs are made by beltech and it is a little rough drive down the road and the key are maxed out that as low as i can go with keysand the front rides about the same as stock. the keys just lift or lower ur front by turning the torison bars. it might be a waste of a z71 but its what i wanted and im not going to lift it, i like lowered z71

the ride is rough but not 2 bad, ya the keys r maxed out. i havn't changed the shocks yet but i will and i didnt hav to shim it because the leaf spring are pretty flat so it lined up really good
