Your vehicles as they sit now!



Time for a new tranny...cleaned it up today and was gonna polish the driveshaft and install my 40k cooler. Imagine that. So any ideas for upgrades while it's out gettin a rebuild? I've got a tb converter that's gonna go in already but what other things should I throw in?

Do a vette servo since they are cheap and a hd2 shift kit then tune it once its put back together. Those will help beef it up a good amount for sure.

Suspension done (finally) 6/8.
Front: bell tech spindles, flipped and adjusted front struts.
Back: flip kit, c-notch, air shocks and 1" hanger.
Sits level with air springs full and does not bottom out, without air it sits about and inch lower in rear, but the pumpkin is about 3/4" off the bed, with about 2 inches of room on the c-notch. Might have to notch the bed.

255/45/20.

After that: 22" Wheels.

Truck looks tits at 6/8 man..plans sound spot on, only thing I would add is cleared headlights

Ah yes, that too. Maybe I'll research how to do that tonight and knock it out tomorrow. For those of you curious about color matching your nnbs. Here is a parts list from a Chevy dealer for mirror caps and door handles.

If you live in San Diego, there is a guy out here that will colormatch your grille, front and rear bumpers for $600. With a 2year guarantee on chips etc.

Thanks Dakota
 
Didn't even see that picture before..definitely need to brace that up better or go with a different notch..unless you want a bent frame, they took out a lot of the strength by cutting that out and not adding anything to it
that's why on under bed notches you see them put the square tubing across the top of the frame rail
