I see you have a corner marker lens that fell off -- mine just did the same thing; it was even the bottom driver's side, just like yours.

Yeah I got new ones but I just noticed condensation in the drivers bottom left
one. Makes me mad!
I also got an oem 3rd brake light lens. My original was made in
the USA and the new one china. My new one is a good
two inches too short in the back!

Thanks for the complement.
I got a box in the mail today from BlackBear Performance.
Just the scan cable though.

So ready for my speedo to be fixed.

On a side note I just started aviation mechanic school!

Re: My 98 DD ongoing project
 
Haven't really done much to the truck lately. I have a roll pan and I'm gonna shave the tailgate. And change up the exhaust a little bit. That's about all for now I'll have to get some updated pics.

Nice job so far! What other plans do you have for it?

98gmc 06-20-2011 04:33 PM

Re: My 98 DD ongoing project
 
Haven't posted anything in a while but My tranny finally decided to go on me guess after 214k miles it did pretty well.
In the mean while i took the roll pan off.. liked it but i need to be able to tow trailers and my dads old truck just aint cuttin it anymore.
In the next month i plan on mini tubin the front and maybe doin a little custom stuff under the hood. Not to the engine just cosmetic.
Hopefully by tuesday of next week i'll be crusin around in it again... hopefully

Re: My 98 DD ongoing project
 
what drop does it have?

98gmc 06-28-2011 12:47 AM

Re: My 98 DD ongoing project
 
i would like to say its a 4 or 5 inch drop in front and an 7 or 8 in the back.
In the front it has 2 inch drop spindles and factory coil which have been cut.
In the back it has a flip kit and the shackles but it has an extra leaf or something to handle the extra weight of towing trailers and i have air shocks which bring it up a lil more to
