Should find someone to paint the Chevrolet on the tailgate white, make it pop and matches wheels as well.

Truck looks Awesome!!!

Absolutely beautiful, Philo.  I have the same bone-stock wheels and hubcaps on mine, only a little more scratched up.

Thanks a whole lot. Although very rewarding, not sure if i can go through it again. So much detail and time, and the many expenses. At least not until i retire anyway.

A while back VZ said i needed a new idler arm, we installed a nice Moog brand, the steering is much better, feels tighter and more responsive. Can an idler arm really make that much of a difference?

Cool, thanks. Plus with all new mounts, truck drives incredible. Tight and real quiet.

I can imagine LTZ how nice your truck drove after you did all that suspension and sreering work.
