Build looks good.

Quick question, what rear brake calipers and rotors are you running?

HotRod C/10 · 04-10-2013, 12:54 AM

85 seville calipers and 1994 light duty rotors (redrilled)

**DeadheadNM** · 04-10-2013, 01:18 AM

Just slap in a front axle, high hump tunnel, and a t-case and call it a 4wd.....

Texas Pugh · 04-25-2013, 11:14 PM

Looking great. Where did you get the lowering blocks?

HotRod C/10 · 04-25-2013, 11:18 PM

They can be had here.

HotRod C/10 · 05-03-2013, 11:41 PM

HotRod C/10 · 05-09-2013, 10:00 PM

I wish........This project will be on the road soon, but not soon enough. The wife and I are long overdue for a SOCAL visit.

67chev"BIG-Bertha" · 05-15-2013, 04:53 PM

I really like the stance of your truck. I have nothing against lowering them to the ground, but for a 6'5" guy like me, I prefer them to be about the height of yours. I don't want to feel like I'm crawling down into a car. Also, lets see some pics of the Duramax that has been keeping you away from this one.

Bennett68C10 · 05-20-2013, 09:53 PM

Really nice headers, love that duramax too
