got the truck all done for the outside right now .
finsihed the lift last weekend with all the goodies . had to order new shocks for the rear since the ones i got with the kit were way too long . thos should be here tuesday and i can sell these for a a profit even after buying the new ones. i finsihed installing the amp research running boards with the led light kit this morning . i have not seen an after market product made this well in a long time ( fit was perfect , quality was top notch , instructions were very detailed ) im very happy with how they look and function . install was pretty easy just involved with time . had to remove both door panels to get into the factory door triggers. the wiring kit it came with was also great and easy to hide
installed the grill this week as well and i cant say the fit was as good but not to bad . i havent seen another hd with this grill so thats a plus . im going to do the back up camera install tomorrow but wont get to a tech 2 until next week to program the radio to recognize the reverse camera. i also had some escalade handles that i was going to put in but i think i like the painted ones better.here are some recent shots of it

lastly ill be doing the stereo upgrade next week as im still trying to figure out exactly what i plan to do . so far i have a single 13 tw5 jl sub , a 500/1 jl amp for the sub , a 300/4 jl high amp , and a cleansweep. my plan is to keep the stokc hu and use the cleansweep to get a clean source out of it to power the bose highs and run the tw5. i may go with some nice high's and replcae the bose and wait a few more weeks on doing it . i know i want something with a silk tweeter. so focal or jl zr are my choices however the jl doesne tuse a silf tweet and the focals are $$$$.
and if any one is decent with photochop can you guys color match the front bumper and caps to the grey color so i can decide i am going to change it ?
still need to find some led tails to smoke as well. after this is done time to focus on the SS and a trialer to go pick it up .

yeah i have done it all myself . sometimes i curse and yell and wish i didnt but at least i know its done right . not to mention saving me thousands of bucks doing so .

only part i wont do is build the trans , which id love to learn how too but its been a long time since ive put one together . i used to work for gm and would help the trans guy as a helper sometimes.

i do plan to pull the allison when time comes to have it built though.

hopefully have all the part for the system next week .

and plan on doing the rear view cam tomorrow.

Good for you bro, I wish I had the time for that sort of thing. Having a wife and three daughters makes spending time in the garage almost impossible.
