I'm lookin for a decent set up for my avalanche. the common 6" and 35's don't look like its gonna be big enough for me. Seeing if anybody has any suggestions on it.

No clue what to go with but I know you have to lift the hell out of them to clear those fenders.

6" and 35 nito mud grapplers would look good...or add another 3" body and go 38s..

thats exactly what i had in mind, but i don't see too many of them around to see what size looks right on them.

I dont know about a 3 inch body lift on an avalanche, or 38's on factory axles. I think a 6 inch lift sus. lift with some nice wheels and tires would look nice.

axles should hold up..maybe re-gear it

I just wish a 6" lift were available for my Trailblazer...I'd buy it in a second. I personally wouldn't go more than a 35 without changing the gear on the truck...and even that's pushing it a little. it would hold up fine...but be slow as hell, and you'd loose so much grunt on stock gears, especially with 38's. It would look sweet as hell though...another option, if you didn't want to go with the 3" body, would be to find some pocket style fender flares if they're available, and actually cut the fender a little (as bad as that sounds).

I was already thinking about gearing it. That 5.3 ain't gonna have too much ass to it with stock gears and 35's.

I was thinking about gearing my silverado, but i do a lot of towing and I dont know how well it would work out for me.

what exactly does that "tow/haul" button on the shift lever do?
