So a lot of changes for 2020.. First a nice little addition to the Bose stereo system from the homie Joey and his team at truckbass.com. 2 JL 10W3-D8’s and a JL RD1000x1 in a beautiful leather wrapped enclosure.2BAE7682-35D3-471A-AA8D-1B9F463CEC55.thumb.jpeg.61313eea3f591a4992cf9fc00159405e.jpeg3D6D3BC8-9972-4B4A-91B2-4AE8406E1F24.thumb.jpeg.ffc9703b1bbb6f167c993d3d77e2b712.jpeg58E289C9-8D8F-4DAF-8B3F-F79BA0F7CF54.thumb.jpeg.d4c3d3261ac2f4064bc443f287e0cb76.jpeg17AE44FE-3D91-4F72-B31B-6B27D91CD8E9.thumb.jpeg.4ab5fa788a4067b2854af432f5fa895f.jpeg2490A0BF-2CFD-48C4-B61E-6D06E71AFD30.thumb.jpeg.ea5d0176e1c5bc23ce21975752c513e1.jpeg074F0AAF-7E48-4B9A-ADCB-7C018994410D.thumb.jpeg.9abbd9010e423c78fa24121fc4630357.jpeg

So I know most of the guys on here aren’t big on full custom builds, big wheels, big lifts and color but just Incase you’re one of the few I got one of the last pieces of the puzzle  delivered to my shop the other day so the rebuild is about to go down. Custom sized fresh cut TIS Forged 26x14’s and I’m dig’n them! These things are massive and they did a beautiful job in the machine shop! A62496B5-9F9E-45C2-B9AE-3A31A91221B1.jpeg.e1bfafa978408fbb10addf3eafc767fb.jpeg05C34530-4AE4-44E8-9A89-22131ED00B18.jpeg.fd050b96218c962f0718cc93206fb38d.jpegD6E9E957-8167-4471-B2AF-66EB97B8FCE3.jpeg.04022d62892c2f40b7b41687bdd3f10d.jpeg

Looks like 8" - 8 1/2" to me.
That's as big of a lip you'll see anywhere. Badass.
And they're forged.[emoji106][emoji106]


Dieselfan1, I can picture you drooling right now [emoji1786]

You know a smart man would have just measured the lip instead of setting a bill down in old custom offset form lol apparently I am not that smart man haha


You’re reminding that it takes a lot of that to get to where you’re at, you’re the 1% of this forum, kudos to you, outstanding work.

Thank you so much my friend, it definitely takes a little doing but I enjoy it. We all have a love for these trucks and I’m no different than anyone else just want a different visual end result than some. Cheers to you and everyone that puts effort, time and money into making these trucks more unique!

So most of my order came in from Zephyr Polishing and I thought I’d show anyone interested what I’m going to try and make some shiny parts with. On recommendation from a talented polisher I picked up the ultra shine kit, a couple different heavy duty wheels and a show stopper wheel. So armed with all this, a couple first hand tips from a friend and a few you tube videos I’m going to try and start by tackling those control arms Friday night.

Big shout to R1 Concept performance brakes adding me to their team and getting me set up with the slick set of slotted and dimpled rotors and or performance pads they should look pretty slick through the windows of the TIS wheels.

So the trucks all back apart again and we got the differentials stripped down and I keep asking myself what kind of idiot would do this all over again!? Haha

Thanks my friend! Got some color on today, all the reals done and also got to custom make a one-of-a-kind bronze copper. 9D072F00-33D4-4121-B007-E2956B693C60.thumb.jpeg.5738c92171ac6294f914a46698e16824.jpeg78C096EE-CCAB-4510-911A-2D50D95D74D5.thumb.jpeg.0638de41d1d3cb9739076fa7934a475e.jpegC225DA69-D6A2-4A55-83D0-8616A5127FCE.thumb.jpeg.e5eb7d1a4d0874ab95affb2253d5e779.jpeg0F53622B-9804-4588-8756-F2D914D1213B.thumb.jpeg.c945fbf54ed6b15ab17616f23c39a1a2.jpeg51777021-1544-4EE2-9AFE-64FCF4754485.thumb.jpeg.4b3cd1f6f721c5247602e330d2aeede1.jpegF260E61D-49AF-45A5-8F77-C18CC7421CFE.thumb.jpeg.e41ba15f66bbcd3610f3a738de646850.jpegE16959D1-AC8B-4CAE-8D37-77AF302AA1E2.thumb.jpeg.74ed0e4805925e704c0d6857f0f8a281.jpeg

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
