Default 2012 Silverado Next Upgrades?

Got a 2012 Silverado jacked up. May go another 3 or 6 inches. Has 20" tires. What order should these upgrades go and which brushguard would look the best?

Looks like a levelin kit on it. A 5" rough country plus your small levelin kit would put you up there pretty good. Lift it, then do 35s. I wouldn't put none of the extra stuff on it but that's just me. Less is more in my eyes.

You are exactly right. However; I'm the kind of person who can't keep things the same for too long. If I don't add something new. I'll get tired of it.

Thanks for the reply though!

No problem, are you wantin what you have now plus 6" more? If that's the case I'd look into mcgaughy 7" lift. 7" with completely flat angles and good ride, then you can go to 9" of lift no problem

Yes. What I have now plus 6". I want a good kit. But not have to overpay, ya know? I know you get what you pay for. But kinda best of both worlds

The mcgaughy lift is gonna be great then, bout 1700 for the economy kit. Full throttle suspension and Cognito makes a 7" kit but they're a tad more expensive. I run the mcgaughy kit on my 01 and love it. Pic for reference Name:  C777E413-B98A-4193-95EC-301F369B2501_zpsbi68iell.jpg

Looks great, nice truck! And perfect, that's the round about price range I was looking at.

Thank you lol. And you won't be disappointed with it. They also have a decent amount of add ons you can do later down the road if you want too
