Re: late build thread...LOL

What's going on man. So she's getting the body drop, that's going to be sweet. Dude you should check out the Scotts hot rod super slam ifs. After a ton of research this is what I ended up getting. Bolts right up. It would look sick under your truck.

Re: late build thread...LOL

Yea stuck good to the colmn, pain taping it all off though, if you just have to do the colomn, I would pull it out to do that...
The grill is the cheap flea bay one but I have to say with a little grinding to the back in a couple places it fit pretty well

Re: late build thread...LOL

cant say it often enough....your Burb is like my dream Suburban setup...

the only thing I would add is a xenon projector headlight setup with something from the TheRetrofitSource.....

buy some cheap Ebay projectorhousings and replace the projectors from that place...that would really finish it up for me...

these are Morimoto Mini's

Next thing that brings me through there, I'd like to see it in person.
