2.5" Tgc/ 3" Blocks Pics

DaveH71 · May 13, 2011

Finally got a chance to take some good pics of my truck since i installed the lift and had it aligned.

Some other cool stuff i added - Avs kick shields made for gmt-800's but fit our 900's

Catch can/Underhood lights/Airaid MIT.

Cool pic of the boat launch about 2 blocks from my house on the Susquehanna river.

Lift has been on my truck about 1000 miles now and i'm very happy with it. Ride is pretty much the same, maybe a little bumpier but nothing noticeable. Future plans are RC 1.25" bodylift and 285/70 tires with some kind of black 17" wheel. Haven't decided on wheels yet and still trying to decide if i want cooper zeon or nitto terra grapplers. I've had BF Goodrich a/t's on my old s10 before but wasn't really happy with them.

Looks good, like the grill!

The truck is looking good! How much lift did you end up getting out of that TGC kit?

Looking good. Go with 18" wheels and it will be even better looking.

I'm thinking these wheels but there only available in a 17" and 20" and there's no way im getting 20's

Looks great. I know a guy that used to have those same rear blocks.

Fixed it for you.

Op, black 17's will look like spares.

well thats why i like the wheels i posted before, there half and half. Plus i cant find any good looking Black 18's with a silver lip and faux beadlock. I love the look of the beadlocks alot but i dont need real ones.

couple questions for daveh71. love the truck i just go a 2008 sierra and am looking to do exactly what you have done here.

1) did you replace your struts to ones with longer travel or add rear shock extensions? if so which shocks?

2) have you had any issues with the cv angle?

3) can you supply a detailed parts list of what you have here i have been researching for a couple weeks and yours is the nicest i have seen with the ride height and stance and i would like to duplicate this if possible.

thanks.
