I can't believe I've missed both of your builds. Subscribed...

chapster · 10-07-2011, 09:00 PM

Still looking for pics of this truck at ride height, any chance of anyone having any?

MattA · 10-08-2011, 01:33 PM

Here are a few. ScotI probably had a bit too much air pressure in the bags, but he didn't want to hurt anything.

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 10-08-2011, 02:00 PM

Sweet pics...

kvn1011 · 10-08-2011, 03:49 PM

Nice rolling shots!!

SCOTI · 10-08-2011, 04:49 PM

I definitely had more air than required. We were going 65-ish & it's not my truck, so I err on the cautious side. Coming home it was a little lower....

n2billet · 10-08-2011, 07:03 PM

I drive it about 3" lower than those pictures.........Matt you got any more pictures?

MattA · 10-08-2011, 09:56 PM

A few:

n2billet · 10-08-2011, 09:59 PM

Thanks Matt, I didn't have any with the trucks together....now I do!

MattA · 10-08-2011, 10:07 PM

Had to wait a while to get a shot without a crowd around them. Says alot about the presence they both have.

fishingjred73 · 10-08-2011, 10:18 PM

Both are definitely nice trucks!

big_al_71 · 10-09-2011, 08:09 AM

63 miles........the 3 spd in the stepside has to go. I'm thinking s-10 5spd behind the 6 cylinder will work much better.

chapster · 10-09-2011, 11:53 AM

Sweet pics!
You have some really nice trucks there.

While Stella does have one of the tightest/smoothest 3spds I've ever shifted, I agree, the 5spd would be nicer.

Keep your eyes open for one......

big_al_71 · 10-09-2011, 12:52 PM

63 miles not too far. My truck had a 307 with on the column,the motor would be screaming at highway speeds.....

XxCHEVYMANxX · 10-09-2011, 06:41 PM

Congrats on the awards, there will be more! Two super sharp trucks.

Looks like I'm going to have to reconsider the 'originality' of my truck as well... haha!

Love the rolling shots above btw.
