06 ccsb

[5speedsilverado]

Got rid of the 14 rcsb, and got something with a lil more room, and in all honesty i missed the gmt-800 plat form.

heres the start, found a single owner 2006 CCSB with a 5.3 and 118k miles on the clock.

right when i brought it home

first thing was to remove that ugly bug deflector

then i had to see how it towed, but forgot the pick of my tool boxes in the trailer.

plans are color match, 5/7-8 drop on 22's, and just going to drive it.

pick of said toolbox just cause. matco double bay 6s

:hng: At the toolboxes. Truck looks nice, good buy. Any idea on what wheels you wanna run?

 

[Khaos]

In for cc goodness

 

[5speedsilverado]

planning on these wheels

GMC Sierra Wheels

 

[Khaos]

I'll reserve judgement til they're on..

i've got a few things to do first, it needs a CAI, the factory box has a hole in the lid that i patched with duct tape for now, and it needs brakes, think the old man that had it rode the brakes alot cause the front brakes shimmy and have a massive lip around the edge

Good choice, but I'm biased :cheeky:

Going chrome or machined?

They would looks tits in Chrome. I don't like the machined and black ones though.

^Exactly why I asked. The machined is boring IMO, the chrome pops so nice, especially on graystone

im still open on the finish, the black chrome kinda caught my eye too lol

 

[Huck]

I like black chrome too, but I feel like the truck would need to be a brighter color for that

 

[Dakota]

Yea the black chrome isn't bad looking but your color needs regular chrome.

8 high mod

apparently the drop shackles i have are not adjustable, so i said fuck it, when the time for the drop comes its just getting a 6/8

 

[bgray]

6/8 wont be very driveable IMO

Does my ccsb GMC look to high for your taste?

 

[kyleviau]

I bought those rims in Chrome 22". I'll upload pics when the rubber shows up if that helps with your decision. I was stuck between the two choices aswell ha

 

[5speedsilverado]

i love the way colyn's truck sits at a 6/8 that is what made me decide finally on the height

 

[bgray]

Extremely unusable height...buyer beware. Theres a point where they get to low, and you straight up destroy the truck

 

[5speedsilverado]

hows a 5/7 for drivable?

powerstop rotors and ebs green stuff pads, unfortunately i bought the truck from one of those half assed dealers, they only turned one drum on the rear and it had new shoes on each side, then thr front brakes were even worse, one side the pads measured 8mm and the rotor was in good shape, but the other side the pads were ar 3mm and the rotor was grooved to shit. needless to say after turning both drums and adjusting the rear drums along with the new brakes up front its a night and day difference in stopping power

Nice, looks much better now. I bet those brakes feel great also!
