2005 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab Buildup - Silverado Slugger

...and the Belltech shackle and bracket assembly was put into its new place.

With the leaf spring now in a lower position and underneath the rear axle, Belltech's C-sections and U-bolt plates were fitted around the leaf pack and axle.

With the rear completely flipped now, Adolfo secured Belltech's lower shock extension brackets...

...and slid the Street Performance shock into place.

A shorter rear bumpstop, which was included in Belltech's flip kit, replaced the factory piece for more travel room and protection from a hard bottoming out of the rear axle.

With the suspension work out of the way, Adolfo started to assemble the Airaid air intake Cool Air Dam panels, which came to complete formation in as little as 10 minutes.

Adolfo popped the hood and ditched the restrictive airbox and tubing for Airaid's better flowing system.

With Airaid's new tubing set into place over the mass airflow sensor, all of the clamps were tightened to a secure fit.

The last piece of the Airaid intake puzzle was the all important air filter, which completed the Airaid system that offers the Silverado more hp, torque, and fuel efficiency for only 40 minutes worth of work.

Adolfo made sure the center caps on the 22-inch Avenue A522 by MKW were tightened down nice and tight before reintroducing the truck to the concrete.

Hankook Ventus ST tires will grab loads of attention while spinning beneath the truck's tougher stance.
