Didn't do this today, was from Friday. Picked up my box I designed from a friends wood shop.(He cut out the pieces to the measurements I gave him.)

Just need to find some time to put it together.

Heading out to garage now to install Belltech bumpstops in front. The new Eibach sways are a hell of an investment for these trucks!

jdpber, does it ride completely different with the rebuilt front end?

dude it is night and day.. i still have not had a highway test but around town ti 13 miles i have put on it since sunday sure feel nice.. the suspension is still stiff no changing that.. thats a lifted truck for ya. but there is no slop in the front end. she handles like a dream now with the alignment and the tires balanced.. (i get my tires rotated and balanced every oil change free) this balance i paid the $20 and got them done as i suspected they may need it.. im about half way to the next oil change..

before i have vibrations, rattle, she would walk side to side above 30, and was very bad above 60.. i noticed this on the trip home from atlanta couple weekends ago.. that is when i ordered the parts.

it was well worth the time spent on saturday installing good parts and doing it the right way.. some may say a shop is the only right way but i saved alot of money that can go to other things. especially since the cost difference was about 1,300

i need to change the settings on my shocks and play with that setup to dial it in to the tighter front end.. but yes it rides so much better now :hands:

I could get some pictures, my truck is a mess right now. Nothing to fancy just some jl audio c2_650 on the doors powered by a jl audio 320.4 and a hifonics hfi-1000d.1 for the 15". And a pioneer avic-x920bt for my stereo.

Did finish my box last night, tuned to 32hrz.

I enjoyed being at the sand dunes with my family and another couple this last weekend!! Weather was great for the first 2 days, rained and was windy horribly on the 3rd, and then just windy and cold on the last 2 days!! Needless to say, have fun everyday and the denali did awesome the whole time!! Man am I going to miss summer time and warm weather, time to bring on the cold and the rain I guess!

I've probably had them for about 4-5 years now, can't remember exactly when I bought them!! Got them from a guy at my dads work for super cheap, $450 and they only had 200 miles on them, rims and tires!! Just haven't had the spare money to get different center caps for them so I'm rollin on bowties!! lol

Ha ha ha!! I'm jealous of the folks around here that get out there more often than I do!! I love being at the beach, riding quads and running the denali all around and up the dunes!!
