I've owned my 1997 Yukon since 3k miles in 1998 as a HS graduation gift and this is the first time I've seen this forum! I've pretty much browsed through most threads and posts from the past 3 months and had soo many questions solved!
I thought I'd say Hi and post up a few pics.

Just moved to Dallas and 3rd week here some one "Smash and Grabbed" my Head unit while I was getting a money order in broad daylight! Took all of 2 minutes to damn near total my truck for a head unit they can never power up..(Eclipse 7002)

Here are some pics of the Old rims I bought in 1999. 2/4 eibach drop( Ultra 20x10 Eagle GTII 275/45R20 )

New rims are also Ultras but 22x9.5 on 265/35 Khumos.

System: x2 BD1500 RF Power amps, x2 2010 DVC 4ohm Solobaric l7 15s, Alpine 400x4, 1.5 silk alpine tweets x2, 6.5 Alpine SPS600 x2, 5x7 Alpine SPS509 x4, Clarion 7in touch screen, Tv view 7 in and x2 5.5 tv view headrest monitors, Optima Yellow Top x2, Isolator with 190 boss alternator.

Motor: 50k miles on rebuilt Vortech forged 355. Other then forged inners all stock even exaust!! 205k on body..

Other then the new wheels, new speakers, and head unit it's been sittin like this a looong time.

Planning on finally dropping in a 383 and new paint along with fixing ALL the minor body work and driving this truck 10 more years!

Thanks for the warm welcome!! You guys have some nice rides too. I've been getting ALOT of ideas from the trucks I've seen on here. I'll be doing some major work to the yukon this year and I'll keep you guys posted.

Haha man I'm no stranger to money pits! All in all though the Yukon has been the best vehicle I've purchased. I replaced the motor at 155k and it was still running strong. I'm on my 2'nd tranny...but the first tranny has about 60k miles of boat pulling. With the old 355, tranny, suspension, wheels, and system Im about 20k plus vehicle price and I can see myself sinking another 6k in it easy this year if my 383 and paint plans come through as planned..but after that I'm done. I'm parking it and turning it into a weekend ride.
