Blown 346 Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 Why???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalltownguy Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 (edited) It really looks great, I seriously considered lifting at one point because I live off road and have never been a street truck kinda guy. However, I just knew that an SS wasn't the truck to lift and at stock height it could at least get me where I needed to be to unload my true off road toys. Now I have a badaSS jeep rubicon so it doesnt matter but I do like this. My next silverado/sierra, which I'll probably trade the jeep for when I get home, will be lifted.

Link2603 Posted November 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 it doesnt look bad to me. Im not a fan of lifiting a SS but if I did it would be like that minus the tires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WantaSSS Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 I never liked lifted SS's but this makes me change my mind a bit. Tastefully done looks well maintained. I just want to know whats done to the motor to make it run a 12.9 in the 1/4 with that lift .... wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassmaster Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 He never gave specifics, but said heads, cam, tune, gears, exhaust, headers, fuel system, cat delete. Claimed a 12.96 on the 33s.. Yeah I call bullshit on that. A gas truck lifted 9.5" on 33 mud tires is NOT getting that time. Would need boost, then it's almost believable..

demonte1997 Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 I like the odometer display in blue. How custom is that? Is that something gmgaugerepair can do? I'd love to have that so I could match up the rest of my lights in the interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelleyperformance Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 not complicated at all... i like the truck. its different, and my bet is that is prob one reason he did a lifted build. this isnt exactly a limited production car, and it certainly isnt strictly a "curve hugging" sports car. its a pickup truck, with torsion bars... maybe he "didnt do forums" because he just got senselessly bashed anywhere he went... i wouldnt blame him if he didnt find that fun. the WHOLE point of customization is to customize the vehicle to YOU- its owner/driver. there might be a few times where "bashing" could be arguably justified, but when its commenting on someones modifications to their car/truck- not really... i think posting strictly negative, totally non-constructive comments is nearly childish. this may be a surprise, but im willing to bet he spent ALL that money on that SS because its what HE liked and what HE wanted. i dont think he had your ideas in mind when he built it i know, it seems rude oh, btw- i call BS on that 1/4 mi time too. doesnt seem close (unless its got one of those "freak motors" from the factory ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4Runner Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 I do agree with it being very hard to pull a 12.9. But with the right gearing I think it could be done. In my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS&Sierra_84 Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 I just saw a black lifted SS in New Platz NY. Maybe the same guy. Albany aint to far....sharp truck but lifted SS not my thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
