Got my the CL 08 Avalanche steelies on with the 285/70/17 Hankook Dynapro MT's. Got the 4W conversion kit to do away with the Autoride on. Took it to OBX NC for a week and played at the beach (more pics in my album). Getting 2" spacers and keys added next week. Let me know what you guys think. Any suggestions?? I plan on de-molding soon.
Work in Progress! Lift next week.

Where did you get those coil overs from. how do you like them.
Strutmasters is where I got them they are Monroe. I love them and they perform great, no service or ride dash lights lifetime warranty! I have been looking for an autoride and electronic dampening fix for a while now, just check my posts. The day after I put the conversion on I drove from Oklahoma to NC OBX. Spent a week diving on the beach and running the Hoe on the dunes and drove back with no problems. The ride was really quite smooth even with the 285 MT's. I am loving them, couldn't be more happy. Strutmasters even followed up with me 2 times by both phone and e-mail just to check on the install, ride and my satisfaction. I was really shocked! Great company Great service and Great products.

P.S. The CO's gave me almost 1" lift in the rear, kinda unexpected.

I was gonna do the same, but decided to just de-badge, and leave the moulding, but i painted it all black and got rid of the chrome/faded black, IMO looks sick and my doors are still protected from other trucks, just something to think about

Did you peel the chrome center off then paint? How does it look got pics?
no i just washed...and then sanded down all the fake chrome trim, and a little on the black faded moulding, then hit both with like 6 coats of black, im gonna add about 2 or 3 more coats of gloss black on wednesday...ill have pics of my progress later tonight so you can see how it looks..so check back
