My Truck

[dogcar3]

So not entirely a new member, but have not posted much so I thought this a good place for this.

 

The truck is a 2001 GMC Sierra 1500HD CC with a 6.0L/4L80-E/3.73 combo. Rated 300hp and 360ft-lbs from the factory.

 

List of modifications/upgrades:

-Custom built front bumper from 5"x7"x3/16" rectangle tube steel with a pre-runner bar (2"x2"x3/16") and three 7" Hella 700FF lights upgraded with HID bulbs that are turned on with the factory fog light switch.

-Custom built frame mounted receiver tubes on the front.

-Both high and low beams have been upgraded to HID bulbs, when I switch the brights on both the fog lights and low beams come on too.

-Removed mechanical fan and put in two 3600CFM electric fans each with their own PWM controller, with 30sec run after turn off to prevent heat soak. Run off temp probes, but also have manual override.

-Upgraded 11"x12" transmission cooler.

-Custom 4" intake with K&N cone filter.

-Optima Yellow Top.

-Royal purple in the engine, trans, transfer and axles.

-MSD wires, iridium plugs.

-Fitch fuel canister

-Secondary battery/large capacitor (BatCap)

-Front and rear elockers.

-285/65/18 Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armors with 18x9 Nascar wheels.

-Hawk performance ceramic pads with slotted rotors.

-Bilstein HD shocks.

-Ceramic coated 1 7/8" primary into 3" collector headers. 3" dual into a Magnaflow muffler with a single 4" tail pipe.

-Remote start/alarm.

-35% front, 20% rear tint.

-CoverKing neoprene seat covers.

-Cabelas trail gear 2 floor mats.

-Panasonic head unit, Infinity Kappa door speakers, Infinity Kappa Perfect 12" sub in a custom enclosure under the back seat with a Rockford 300 watt RMS amp and a 1 Farad digital display capacitor.

-Raider canopy.

-Firestone air bags in the rear.

-Spider rear diff cover guard.

-Stainless brake lines.

-Stainless nerf bars.

-Custom built rear bumper out of 5"x7"x3/16" rectangle tube steel with two Hella 4" work lights that come on with the factory cargo light switch.

-Custom built bed in the back with storage underneath, and 12v outlets.

-2500 watt Tripplite inverter.

-180 amp alternator.

-Gun rack.

-Predator tuner.

-12000lb Viper winch on hitch mount. Can be put in front or rear.

-Westin tail light guards.

 

Future mods I want to do to my truck:

-4.56 gears

-Custom rock sliders/steps (need the steps so my daughter can get in and out on her own)

-Either a turn key crate engine, or add a supercharger (Eaton 112)

-Rhino line the exterior from the body line down

thats a badass looking truck... i say remove all chrome on it

[Daryl LBZ]

Welcome! Nice Truck!

[dogcar3]

Working on removing the chrome. Need to get some time and steel so I can fab up some rock sliders. Also going to rhino line the mirrors and from the body line down, then probably just flat black the grill. Thanks for the compliments. Sure gets a lot of looks driving around. But it's even more fun to drive off road, gotta love the true 4wd.

yeah, your lucky. it must be awesome offroad. you should take your step bars off. i just dont like step bars

[Sanipass]

I like your truck, love the front bumper thats something i need for my truck So i can just run moose over instead of having to try and shoot them. lol. I agree too, take the steps off, you will have loads of fun laughing at people trying to climb in hahaha, and it makes the truck look higher, plus it gives you exercise jumping it, its all around a good choice, i did it and i dont regret it, well for the most part i really love laughing at people trying to climb in especially old people. jk. lol

Removing the step bars would be nice, but my 3 year old daughter needs them to be able to get in/out by herself. Thanks again for the compliments, means a lot since I have done everything on the truck myself (except for the exhaust between the headers and muffler).
