My truck has seen the 100MPH a time or two. Not lately though but back when I first put the 305 TPI in it.

It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: Gauge cluster pics

Can anyone tell me why the heck GM couldn't use the same type of needle on the tach as the speedo? That irritates the crap out of me for some reason!

Re: Gauge cluster pics

Here's mine made of out the glovebox door and a billet specialties trim thing. I think it flows nicely with my dash and I only spent $70 excluding gauges.




(oh and I should get a pic with the flooring back in it, huh?)
