I like your front and rear GMC logos. How did you make the letters black instead of red?

 

Thanks!

I used black plasti dip. You can buy it at walmart by the spray paint. I masked off the emblems with masking tape and sprayed the plasti dip directly on the emblems. I watched a YouTube video that showed how to do it. I'll admit I was a little skeptical at first to if it would really peel off but it did. Just make sure you clean the emblem good and apply at least 5 to 6 coats. I applied 6 coats each 20 minutes apart and I allowed 40 minutes after the final coat before peeling it off. It turned out great. I have had it on there for almost 2 months now and it hasn't chipped or peeled any.

im just wondering what is the point in lowering a truck? i mean you cant haul anything now, it pretty much useless for what it is intended for now... unless it runs a 10 second quarter mile i don't understand the point in it?

The point is personal preference. I can haul the same amount of stuff you can haul I just don't have to lift as high. I still have the same springs, same axle, same transmission, same motor.

 

Like I said Personal Preference.

How do you figure it can't haul anything? I've haul stuff with lowered trucks in the past, and in some cases they performed better then the stock counterpart. I use to haul my Drag truck to the track with a lowered 97 sierra, it did great. As I see it lowering a truck can make it easy to get things in and out of the bed too, depending on what you need to get in the bed, such as a motorcycle (less of an angle to go up). Lowering a truck doesn't necessarily alter it's capacity, in most cases it just alters it's ride height…

 

I couldn't agree more, we all use our trucks differently and some require lifted trucks whereas some of us kind of need a lowered truck. If you use it everyday on a job site or something like that then by all means lift it as high as you'd like..... but if you are loading things in the back and want easy access to them then lower it as much as you'd like (as much as possible to be useful for what you do).

Like me, I use my truck as a daily driver and haul everything under the sun with it. Doesn't matter that it is lowered 5/7. Doesn't matter at all. It'll pull whatever I hook to it like it was meant to. And, if it makes the rear sag too much I can always put some air in the rear helper bags. No issues at all.

People always criticize lowered trucks and raised trucks and say things like "That's ridiculous, you can't even use that truck like it was intended to be used now". I don't get it. Are people just mad because others are doing things to their trucks that you don't like? Well, guess what, it's not your truck. Why not just appreciate the effort that someone else put into their vehicle and do what you want to your own vehicle? Show some appreciation for people who do things differently (as opposed to everyone else out there who keeps doing the same things over and over and over again ) and then criticizing others who want to be original.

 

Can't we all just get along? LOL

What size wheels and tires did you pull off?

 

The stockers were the Eagle 275/55 R20 LS-2's but the black wheels were the Strut 295/45 R22's
