    In for the updates and all the people who will go off on you for not spending more on a coilover setup and having to buy upper a-arms to get alignmetn specs back.

    I'm not a fan of big rims and stretched tires but am interested to see the install pics as your doing good so far on the pics:) Let us know a total time in the end as well -and hows that sawzall handling cutting up the 35k truck?

    Your alot like me before I got married - the second time - and when I was single. Now - I'm jut going to be happy if I can actually get a new truck. And when I get it - first step will be armor for me - sliders and skids - after that will be lift and tires. Love both the vehicles - you doing H/C/I and adding boost on the C7 or ?

    Sounds sick, biggest build I had was around 680 rwhp - with your mod sheet, you should kill that number easily:) Water meth was the only way I could touch that power number as well.

    Much respect for busting out an involved lift like this at home. Subbed for more installation pics. Keep us updated if you have any ABS issues pop up after lift. Some others with 6" lifts and 33+ tires are reporting the ABS going off, but it's been hit and miss.

    Drool.... Looks great - my only debate now-a-days is order the long bed or the short bed. Thankfully I have a little while before I place my order. I do have to say, if i get longbed will go with a bracket lift more than likely... If I go shortbed like yours I'll just do the 3" but man it looks GREAT!
