Went by powder guys shop today and check out his wheel stash. Actually not much compared to usual hes been diligently selling stuff instead of hoarding. Only thing he had for 6x139.7 is a set of 2 piece 23"asantis, 22" snowflake reps and some 22" OEM gmc wheels.

I did talk him into getting a scale and weighing different 20-24" gm wheels as he sees them. He swears 3 piece Vossens are some of the lightest hes seen and is what's on his avalanche now.

Do any NBS guys have creeky sounds even after front-end rebuilds? I'm not certain it's coming from the front but it sure sounds like it. The alignment shop guy said I should lather the new UCA bolts in anti-seize and should one by one pull the body mounts out inspect and reinstall with lots of grease if they are still good which I'm fairly certain they are. I already went through and greased everything with a zerk fitting which didn't seem to help.

Went ahead and ordered new Moog UCAs to put the camber bushings in so I can get them 100% pressed in and squared away before I ever pull the truck back in the shop.

I can’t hear shit except my exhaust maybe you need it louder. Pretty sure there’s no squeaks though.

Mines pretty damn quiet. I had one little squeak, but since replacing the uca and lower ball joint, as well as new 5100’s up front, she’s stealthy.
