Stopped on the way to a local meet to snap a pic in the racetruck.
Lights and front end looks good....I just recently changed my from end too. I like it much better. Looks like you got a bad aftermarket lower valance though. It has a little sag right in the middle. I had one like that before,it drove me crazy.I had to buy another one for the hd conversion.

Surprised you noticed that. It's a very small sag but yea it does bother me. Thats an OEM valance straight from a GM dealer. Everything is OEMStopped on the way to a local meet to snap a pic in the racetruck.

Thanks yall.
It's about 1/5 on 245/55/17 Michelins.
Im a stickler for getting it dead level and all of my setups are a bit weird but it takes creativeness to get it dead level all around. No 2 trucks are alike. So here u go:
Rear:
2" drop shackles (left one set on 1", right one extended and set on 2.5")
2" street edge drop hangers
Overload leaf removed
Front: trimmed half a coil to get 3/4 of an inch on passenger side, trimmed a 1/4 coil to get about 1/2" on driver side
Dead on all around

On my racetruck:
(I always do rear first) Rear:
Nnbs leafspring on drivers side (good for 1" of lift) with stock shackle, stock leaf on passenger side with drop shackle set on 1", flip kit
Front: 2" belltech springs, 2" Mcgaughys spindles with steering stops grinded down to keep stock radius
"4/7" and dead level
LOL

So last week on the single cab I changed spark plugs, wires, distributor cap, rotor, and intake gaskets.
When I got the truck I cut the cats off and replaced with pipe since they were clogged. Well with a 24" Jones Maxflow muffler it's still too loud so I cut out those pieces of pipe and welded in 2 Jones 12" glasspacks and then of course I still have the 24" muffler behind it. It made a huge improvement. Sounds much better inside and out, and is much more mellow when cruising. I used glasspacks because they are half the price of dynomax bullets and gave me the exact same result.
Here's just a pic from a local benefit show the other day for a buddy of mine. I entered my racetruck.
Also got a new phone as u can see. Love it

Looks like a good size. I may run them next on my 17s when I buy tires for them. I had 245/65s before and they were way too big lol

Oh yea that's huge lol. I also had these same wheels (not same set) on my white truck a few years ago and I ran 255/50/17. Which looked a bit small so I didn't go with that again. Those were 27". 245/55 is 27.6"

This is funny to me because I had to run 245/65s for a day while I got a wheel swapped out and they were tiny on my nbs but it was leveled with a 3" block, actually had about 1/4-1/2" of lean and it's what is stock on my TB. Both trucks looks good tho.
