I bought from my father in law who had used it for work, but he retired after he was injured.
They had an 06 that was thier daily driver.
This one sat until the 06 had its transmission ate itself.
They had an oil change done on the 01, but found water in the crankcase (probably from condensation) and were told it needed an engine, but my examination after buying it, I think the engine is still good.
Its my project rig now.

Must be a really big orifice.
Yeah, it is. After the remodel we went to low cubicles and we now can "collaborate" with everyone in our area, only one of which is in my group. Nothing is private and it's very disruptive to the thought process. Lots of one-sided phone calls and conversations is what we hear.
Thank goodness I can work from home most of the time.

Our orifice is not set up for housing lots of people. Yet, at an all hands on Friday is has been strongly suggested that we all start coming in Tuesdays/Thursdays.Yeah, it is.

Not only is this a challenge because most days I start with calls at 6AM or earlier (stakeholders are all EU based) but I'm also on calls until mid-afternoon. The walls are paper thin for the few "rooms" we have and with a mostly open space with large tables that fit 6 for hoteling, it is near impossible to be on these calls. Gah. Do Not Like.
Pretty much it, except our cubicle walls are even shorter.
We have one guy who is on calls nearly all day long, with a voice that carries over the whole area. Apparently he's not Director level or above, having been assigned a cubie.

Had my dad and some friends stop by for a couple days on their way down to sick week, one of them a tuner, went to flash my tahoe and it glitched halfway through so she's brain dead in the driveway til they get back and his bench tuner gets shipped down... sucks... In 15 years he has only seen it happen twice of course it happens to me.
Anyways the tune will also set me up for success if I do an e-fan conversion which now I am researching.
My truck has been my daily driver for 13 years so I hesitate to make the swap if I run the risk of issues like cooking the harness or the fans dying when I am no where near home on a trip with my wife and kids.
He recommended checking out PCM of NC, anyone have any experience? Very pricey at $250 for the harness and $250 for the gt series fan but figured here is where to ask.

Send @ScottyBoy or @select127 a PM and see if either has any refurb OEM harnesses available. Then check out junkyards for the fans. I overpaid at $60 for my 5/7 blade set of fans at my local yard.Had my dad and some friends stop by for a couple days on their way down to sick week, one of them a tuner, went to flash my tahoe and it glitched halfway through so she's brain dead in the driveway til they get back and his bench tuner gets shipped down... sucks...

Love my efans. Get your harness from @ScottyBoy if you can. I bought a junkyard harness, new fuse box, and @Fless picked me up junkyard fans. 2 wires to pin to the ECM. You need the larger 34” radiator, and I’d recommend the 145A alternator, if you don’t already have it.

The 07-14(?) fans will work on the nbs too. Widens your options.
It in fact IS a zone body lift, 1.5”. I had the same idea as you, and can confirm that the HD bumper DOES fit without any modification brackets with the body lifted. I wrote it up on my build thread, but basically the only trouble I had was the park brake cable, and buying the two longer bolts. Overall the job wasn’t hard. I used a 4x4” and sometimes a 2x12” on top to lift the body.
I would also suggest buying a set of body mounts and replacing those at the same time.
Thanks for the info everyone looks like I'll try and track down the OEM goods and save some money as well. Have to check on my alternator, may upgrade my battery cables as well
I THINK the Z71 could still fit under there too, and might go that direction if I can find one. All the front end parts are KINDA interchangeable, in my experience, but I also kinda want to put larger “off-road” style fogs under it.

To @Sam Harris point, check your radiator size. They won't fit on the smaller one.
