Well I consider myself an expert with a tool bag but it's safe to say these extra nuts bolts and washers go nowhere!! ( Checked everything over 4 times and marked out everything torqued with a paint marker..

Looks good with those wheels on it! I didn't even put the rear bump stops on my kit don't plan on wheeling it that hard. I would order some 5160 full length shocks for front and rear once you recoup some funds.

Yeah, It's time to sit back and think on the small stuff now.. I may match the front shocks with 2 more and build a tube mount and put them on the upper control arms.. Thanks Bro, been some good motivation here

Dialed in the alignment, trimmed the bumper a notch and this truck rides PHENOMENAL with those 4:56's

NAILED IT! How's that clearance up front? And how are them RPM's roaring down the highway with the 4:56's?

I wasn't ready to drive it today but at about 10 last night I realized the zone gave me the wrong brakes for my wife's suburban. Couldn't put it back together because the rotors look like they are being drug down the highway.

I am NOT used to this kind of attention so now I'm paranoid about my flakey paint:manos:

Here's the RPM range at a GPS 70mph reading

RPMs look great at cruise and the lift looks killer on it. Well done! Now just to clean up the body a little and its done. Headlight update and finish cleaning molding removal along with pin stripe.

Jesus man. Nice job! Total motivation for mine. Getting the funds together now for it. Props for doin the damn thing on your own too. We all take that much more pride in our stuff if we do it on our own.
