Your truck looks GREAT! Giving me lots of ideas for the 99 suburban i just picked up. Do you have a link to that chevy HD grill, I couldn't find the previous link you posted on page 5.

Great sight BTW, glad i found it, lots of good info.

TIA
Matt

Thanks Lee , your post also reminded me to update this build a little

Picked up a Z71 Bumper off of a 2000 model tahoe at a junkyard that was in mint shape got it dipped and threw it on , next is doing something with those fog lights . Also Just got the last piece to my roof rack in , should be cutting and welding it in by monday , Im hoping if all goes well ill have it mounted and in the truck.

Also picked up a breather Vent tube relocation kit for the rear axle and Trans once this is completed I can get serious about testing the Snorkel out.

the project is still going but its been slow as time is not allowing for much , Also Funds have been a little low due to the recent holidays and buying a new car , Hoping to pick it up full force in the next month or so

Man I love your OBS. I'm tempted to sell my 2002 Z71 hoe and find a 4dr OBS.

I like the work the work you've done. I like seeing the progression from stock to where it's now.

Great job!!

Do you have theme music when your rolling down the street? I know I would have something running through my head. Keeps looking awesome man, great Truck! And we've all used a little redneck ingenuity.
