It’s amazing how something as simple as mirrors really brings the truck together. Looks good!

you suburban hick! i bet all your neighbors are just waiting for the anti safe act sign and confederate flag to be put up haha

truck looks good!! only thing id recommend is leveling the mirrors with spacers… I have always hated the angle they sit at from the factory

added lower clear lights (w orange blinker bulb) to get rid of the orange corners

FINALLY mounted up my air tank tast night and got my rear seat back in. Fits a little snug but the seat still goes up and down. i’m going to put some washers under the seat brackets and raise it up a hair just for kicks.

Still have to mount the horns, switches and bags

And bump for the truck guys :tup:

Cool project, it’s coming together nicely

Im assuming stock gears still in this? Hows mileage and hows the front end holding up with the 6" lift.

Stock gears, I’m getting 14-15mpg

really? Ive been getting 11-12 (mostly city) lately.

yup, 5.3 V8 and 35’s
stock these get around 20 though, I try to baby it and keep it below 2k rpm

Mine is rated for 14/19 but Ive got bigger than stock tires on it now and mainly drive in the city now with a little highway. It always seems to lose 2 mpg with the shitty winter blend gas.

Have u had this truck tuned? How’s the trans?

It’s tuned on a hypertech programmer but it’s on the low setting, so it doesn’t have any hard shifts on the trans. I could really care less about the tuner but I like having my speedo read correctly for the larger tires. My neighbor has a Silverado and his truck slams the trans when he shifts, he’s got his tuner on the most aggressive setting. This truck is simply a winter beater and tow rig for me, i’m not racing stoplight to stoplight

Finally got the led lights installed on my backrack.
