Pics of my truck.
« on: November 21, 2011, 07:51:42 pm »
Here are some various pics of the truck. Glad to be part of a great site!

I must admit the truck looks really good in pics. In person, however, she has her flaws. It's a build as you drive type of truck, a little bit here and there every few days.

If you have any questions about her, i'll be happy to answer them.

Looks nice, I would try to tighten up that gap between the bed and the cab a little bit more. Welcome to the site

     You are right, in the pics it does look great, nice truck anyways.  Looks like it is fun to drive

Nice truck. Did you put the sway bar on? Was it a kit or custom.

Both the front and rear sway bars are Hellwig items. Kits. Everything included and the instructions weren't bad either, you'll figure it out when you have the harware in your hands underneath the truck.

I did notice an improvement with the addition of the rear bar. It was installed months after the front. My truck handles very well in comparison to many vehicles on the road, not just our trucks.

For those that are interested, i don't remember the model of the bar but if you go to Hellwig and then enter that info on Amazon. Amazon was dramtically cheaper than Summit Racing, Jegs, or any other site i could find.

Pretty sure those seats are from a Suburban.
