Thanks 1stchevy, It's a blast to drive. I can't tell you how many people I have met just out and about. It's a real conversation starter everywhere I go.

I totally understand the college fun...I will have two full time college students in the fall.
I really like the LS swap idea.

Hey been catching up on some old builds that I followed when I was active on mine. Man how well I enjoyed catching up reading yours. The truck turned out great and the ride height is perfect. That is the height I eventually what to get mine/son's to.

Thanks! I have enjoyed driving it for the last year. It's a blast. The suspension is 3" lower up front with lower height tires and 5" lowering springs in the rear. It rides really good but I do plan on upgrading my shocks and more importantly my brakes. None the less, I love driving it and look for reasons to take it out.

I'm running 225-70-15 up front and 275-60-15 in the rear. I would love to have some 7" rally wheels myself. I'm wondering if you run those would you need to run a 225-60-15 instead? Maybe a little wider? I'm not sure the 1/2" would make any difference....

Sorry Jason, we didn't get there till late afternoon. I think around 3:00. There was a bunch of really nice rides. I didn't have any plans to show my truck but it was only $10 more to park inside the ropes so we did.
