Some of you have seen the new look to the truck, so I'm posting pictures and details of what was done.  I'm really happy with the way it turned out, it's HUGE and gets lots of looks.  I've got to give thanks to Tango Chaser for the lift kit (an offer I couldn't refuse) and to CDWPowerhouse who had the patience to help (more like do 95%) on the install at his Mod Garage in Dayton, OH.

The details:
2002 Cladded Avalanche Z-71 (3.73 gears)
3" Performance Accessories Body Lift (installed a few years ago)
6" Fabtech Suspension Lift
37 x 13.5 x 18 Nitto Mud Grappler Tires
18" XD Series Rockstar Black Wheels
PowerSteps by AMP Research (from ElectricStep.com)
Rancho R9000X Adjustable Shocks w/In-Cab Control Box (from 4YouTruckParts.com)

I'm sure you'll see me posting in about every lift and wheel/tire topic, so just excuse me...I'm excited.  Here is a link to my album with all my pictues LINK.

How do you like the mud grapplers? Do they ride pretty good on the street? That truck looks so good!!!

In a word "LOUD".  They actually ride very well.  I had it up to 80 on the hwy today and no bounce, no shimmy, nothing.  They just sound like a jet engine.  They have a very unique whine/hum.
