07+ silverado rear setups

well i kinda searched but couldnt find exactly what im looking for. im going to be baggin a 07 new body style silverado. the guy got the front bag brackets from avs and spindles from mcgaughys. my question is what are most people doing for the rear? will the kp 6 link work or should i just fab him a 4 link? he is wanting 100% bolt on in the rear so i thought the 6 link would be perfect with a watts link. it will be laying over 22's.

very nice setup man. he is wanting to keep the stock location on his fuel tank though. is there a way to build a 3 link that would achevie that? i dont have the truck in my possesion yet so i dont know how far the tank goes back.

A three link will work great. About the same room as the older body style. I just wanted the full forward links for when I do some doughnuts and burnouts and what not... I haven't seem the KP kit for the new body yet, the frame is a little different

thanks alot man. thats what i wanted to know. ill just fab him one up.

No problem, It's good that he is going with the mcgaughys spindles. When I did mine, they would not separate the spindles from the whole lowering package. Ended up with Belltech spindles and they max out the upper ball joint. I'm preatty sure the frame is the same dimension wise, the difference is the it is a fully boxed frame now. I'm sure if you called KP, they can tell you if it will work, if not, they should have a kit damn near ready to sell.

Ekstensive has a front and rear kit for it. It will lay 26in wheels with no toe and it also gets ride of the bump steer. i can email pics to anyone interested if they call our email me.

I was trying to look your kit up on the website but was under construction. I'm really in need of the front kit...

thanks mitch for all the help. i talked to the customer and he canceled the order with avs and will be buying your front and rear kit. i think i also talked him into them big ol 6's to lay under the truck. should be ordering it really really soon. he is sending me the money this next week.


mitch sent me and email of the front kit. looks really well made. plus all the no toe and no bumpsteer and rasing the upper arm sold me. im thinking about buying a single cab silverado and buying the front and rear kit for me. how much extra work do you think it would be to get it to lay on 28's?

Does anyone else have some pic too? i am seriously thinking about doing a 4 door new style silvy. just want to get some ideas of different ways to do it.
