Hey there. Great forum! Have spent hours perusing the build/projects threads and am just blown away by some of the trucks! Incredible amount of blood, sweat and tears that have been put into them. I took the easy way out though and bought one almost all the way done... in my defense it was a local truck that a friend was selling and already had pretty much everything I would want. Couldn't pass that up! Some of the relevant info, 6.0 liter out of a 2008 yukon denali, new 4l80e, porterbuilt front drop members, custom rear frame, accuair e level, ididit steering column, disc brakes all the way around, etc. This is my first classic truck so have been trying to learn as much as possible, but bear with me as I might ask dumb questions down the line. Here are a few pictures.

Beautiful truck and welcome to the board. Need more pictures! If the engine is out of an 08 Denali it should be a 6.2 liter, in my opinion one of the best engines ever produced.

Re: New Member..
Welcome and very nice truck. Don't blame you for buying that instead of building at all! BTW that is not NEAR ENOUGH PHOTOS of your truck. We like pics!

Re: New Member..
Welcome to the forum! One of the many things I like about this forum is the variety of people who are on here. Some can build one from the frame up, others like me can do some but definitely not all the work and others who are fortunate enough to buy one nearly perfect. Some like new paint and others patina.. Some like original and some modified. Bottom line is...WE LOVE OUR TRUCKS!

Re: New Member..
Thanks again for all the comments and the warm welcome! Figured I better get a few more pictures posted before getting the boot off the forum.
If anyone sees something that doesn't look quite right, definitely open to thoughts and suggestions. Again, totally new to this stuff.    Height setting #2
