We all know what to do to the motor and tranny but for the chassis. Take a 2500HD RC LB 4wd and shorten the frame then put a short box on it. Take out the 34 gallon tank and run a stock 26 gallon tank or a fuel cell in the bed. Have a custom length driveshaft made up for the shorter wheelbase. Take the thick lower overload spring out of the rear spring pack. Add lowering hangers and shackles to the rear of the truck to level it with the front end after the torsen bars have been dropped. Ditch the stock shocks for a set of stiffer ones. Don't forget to beef up the stock tie rods. Pull out the spare tire, tailgate, receiver hitch and PS battery to save weight. Replace rear bumper with rollpan. Put in a rollcage and a set of upholstered racing bucket seats with 5 point harness. Add front and rear drivshaft loops along with a set of traction bars. Finally, put a set of slicks on a set of 16X10 aluminum rims on all 4 corners. I think I'll call it the Duramax SS. The SVT lighting and cobra guys won't know what hit them.
