Nice! And it was a Z71. Sold it George? I see you had the 5 spokes on it.
I traded it with 245,000 on it and a bunch of problems that added up to more work than I wanted to do. The RKE didn’t work, needed ball joints, brake lines, axle rebuild, body work and would decide not to start at the most inconvenient times.

That looks good.

Actually it's the Y pipe in the way. I should've told him to beat it.View attachment 262868 View attachment 262869

That had to have been when they first installed them right? I haven't seen clean shiny headers in years.

Mine actually hit there and the front U joint would hit the closest header tube, and it hit the steering shaft. Mine look like they went through a blender but they're some super cheap brand called LPP for like $250.

Mine hit the same spots as yours.
