Thanks man. Yeah, big thanks to the parents for the truck itself but all the parts/mods are on me :ito: i've had a job for a while, and haven't spent a single paycheck on anything else haha. I'm sure some of ya'll know the feeling ;)

Finally got a limited slip! This is an Auburn limited slip differential with a 3.73 gear ratio in the stock GM 12-bolt. Also, switched from stock drum brakes to Wilwoods in the back! She looks pretty good with some discs in the back:ito:

Had to relocate the gas tank from underneath the frame to in between the frame rails so it doesn't scrape :lol: also, got some bedliner shot. came out pretty clean!

Bed back on, spare tire tied down, started on the exhaust (Using Black Widow-Pro Venom's), and installed the Porterbuilt inner frame stiffener. The frame stiffener is a really awesome piece, I would recommend to anyone with a C10, thanks Porterbuilt!

Finished up the exhaust! Going out both sides in front of rear tires

Nice truck, I like that you went with coilovers. How is it driving around town, any trouble with speed bumps and such?

Back on the road! Drives so great with the four link, no major issues to workout. She clears speed bumps as long as I go really slow haha. Definitely worth all the work, she is a major neck breaker now! I would definitely recommend going with coilovers... handles so much better than air ride

Also, if anyone knows how to photoshop wheels onto these trucks.. please let me know. I've got an idea in my head but I wanna see it on a picture first. Thanks

Installed the porterbuilt hoodhinges. Great product, only took a few hours to setup. Plus, the hood opens to a ridiculously large angle now!
