Replaced the front struts with Gabriel ready struts and rear shocks with KYB Gas A Just units... 47k miles on the ODO and those OEM units were all shot.... These new ones ride much nicer and the pre-loaded struts made install a piece of cake.

 

Local Chevy dealer wanted $800 to install the same OEM carp that came on the truck and a couple of local shops wanted $8-900 t install comparable stuff to what I got from Rock Auto for $350 shipped... Total time to install was about 3-1/2 hours with the help of my Dad.

I’ll have to look up the part number. MSRP is $2300.

Summit racing by me has the GMC calipers without rotors for $1500 for a scratch and dent return. 


That’s just under what I paid for the full kit brand new.

Finished up the door moldings and wrapped the front bow tie. The plan is a color matched grill, bow tie, mirror caps and door handles. Finalized with black window trim.

added three tiny red LEDs above the license plate.

 

i used these:  LED bolts  and got power from the license plate lights  (so these will only come on when the headlights turn on)
