New guy with my first K10

Hello all,

I previously posted a thread asking about what to look for when purchasing one of these trucks. I got a lot of good advice which I used in my search over the past few weeks.

The search was a little harder than I thought. Lot's of the trucks I checked out needed a lot of work and were neglected (mechanically). Lot's of play in the steering, factory wiring all spliced to hell, lots of half a$$ed fixes, etc.

I finally found one that was left stock. 145k miles on it, 350, 700r4, maintenance records...runs like a top. The body will need some work and paint before I get into the lift/gears/tires. (the factory 2.73's are a dog!)

Thanks again to those who provided all the great advice in my previous post. I'm sure I'm going to have a lot of questions in the upcoming weeks!
