This California-owned truck has clean paint, solid body panels, and avoids the heavy underbody corrosion commonly associated with trucks from salt-belt states. The LB7 is an early Duramax platform produced before diesel particulate filters and DEF systems were introduced. Most importantly, the injectors have already been replaced, addressing one of the best-known and most expensive LB7 maintenance items. Full documentation for the build is available. The seller reports no unrepaired NHTSA recalls as of July 2026. **Duramax performance and reliability upgrades** - 6.6L LB7 Duramax turbo-diesel - Replacement fuel injectors - FASS Fuel Air Separation System lift pump - MagnaFlow stainless-steel cat-back exhaust - High-performance transmission cooler - Integrated trailer brake controller - Front and rear cameras - Compustar alarm and remote-start system **Suspension, wheels, and exterior** - Leveled front suspension - 17-inch Mojave Lock off-road wheels - 285/70R17 Goodyear Wrangler all-terrain tires - Leer camper shell with sliding front and side windows - Upgraded LED headlights and taillights - Running boards - Soft-opening tailgate - Full exterior LED conversion **Interior technology** - Pioneer AVIC-W8600NEX touchscreen - Apple CarPlay and Android Auto - Built-in navigation - Rear headrest entertainment screens - LED interior lighting - Keyless entry and remote start **Extended-range fuel system** A Trucksmart 62-gallon replacement fuel tank provides significantly more range than the factory tank, making this Silverado particularly useful for long-distance towing, overland travel, and remote job-site operation.
