What is the Silverado Z71 package? The Chevy Silverado Z71 package is an optional upgrade to add to your Silverado 1500 to enhance the pickup’s off-road capabilities. The Z71 package is Chevy’s signature off-road package and is well-respected in off-road communities.

What Features Are Included In the Z71 Package?

Everything you need to start tearing up the trails at your favorite off-road parks in Virginia is included in the Z71 package. Learn more about all of the trail-ready features you’ll get in a Chevy Silverado Z71, below:

Front and Rear All-Weather Floor Liners with Z71 Logo

Protect your Chevy Silverado interior with these textured, anti-slip all-weather floor liners that will help trap water and debris. These floor liners come with the Z71 logo and replace the factory floor mats that typically come with your Silverado 1500.

Chevytec Spray-On Bedliner

Keep your bed from getting dinged, scratched, or dented from regular use with this non-skid spray-on bedliner. This watertight seal will include the Chevy logo as well as the High Country logo if the package is added to the High Country trim level.

Off-Road Suspension with Rancho® Shocks

The road less traveled is a lot more traversable — and more comfortable — with Rancho® shocks absorbing the impact of bumpy dirt trails. 

All-Terrain Tires and Dual-Outlet Exhaust

Available in 18-inch and 20-inch wheels depending on trim, the all-terrain tires ensure you are prepared to conquer any condition, on or off-road. The polished dual-outlet exhausts integrated into the rear bumper allow your engine to pump exhaust out of the engine more efficiently, giving you a slight boost in horsepower. 

Autotrac® 2-Speed Transfer Case

Get the right amount of power from your transmission at the right time. This feature enables smooth and comfortable drives throughout Chesapeake and greater control of power when you ditch our city streets for dirt roads.

Z71 Off Road Driving in Off-Road Conditions

Skid Plates and Heavy-Duty Air Filter

These features help protect your truck in more challenging conditions. The skid plates keep off-road debris from critically impacting any of the mechanical parts underneath the truck. As you kick up dust, the high-capacity air filter helps prevent more dust and dirt from entering the engine.

Hill Descent Control

While not exclusive to the Z71 package, this feature makes steep mountain descents a breeze. Your pickup enabled with Hill Descent Control will use anti-lock braking to automatically facilitate a controlled decline without burning out your brakes.

 

Other Off-Road Options: Silverado Trail Boss

Looking to go to the next level of off-road domination? Check out the Silverado Trail Boss. The Trail Boss combines the Z71 off-road package with other enhancements. The suspensions on these pickups have been given a 2-inch lift straight from the factory to allow you to leave city roads behind.
