HUGE UPDATE!!
I completely forgot I had started this thread and will be checking the site more often now! Now about the truck. I’ve put about 500 miles on it and I’m still working out the bugs. I’m on my 3rd PS box because of leaks and had to switch it to 2wd for crossover steering. It did great on my 75 Mile one way trip to school. I finally found the exact wheel and tire setup that I’ve always wanted and this truck looks mean, even in primer. I’ve also been messing with the trans cooler trying to get it in the proper location for air.

I am using Dakota Digital VHX gauges with I believe is their BIM. The gauges are nice and can show a lot of info, they run off the OBDII

Very cool project! I'm not normally a fan of the lifted with big tire look but somehow you found a sweet spot of the right amount of rim, tire and stance and it looks really good! Aggressive yet tasteful if that makes sense :)

I originally didn’t plan on it being so tall but the crossmember for the duramax was large so it kinda forced me to for clearance. I appreciate the kind words. I absolutely love the set up myself.

Very awesome that you've got it together and have been working out the bugs! The wheels and tires look great on it. Have any under hood pics of it?

Thank you very much! And no new pictures of the bay, but I need to get some! I believe I have a boost leak on it🤔 but not sure yet.
