Wow that's fkn gorgeous, post more pics.

As much as I hate the idea of clones, I do love how beautiful they look.

I found a guy who builds replica kits and might just go that route.

Truck looks sharp! How's the ride, and what did you do with the snubber bumpers or whatever they're called on this suspension setup? I know when people treat 'em like they're just a bump stop and not an active suspension component, go to cut them for clearance, the ride goes to hell. I'm a big fan of lowering but only in ways that doesn't screw up the ride. I'm new to the GMT800 platform so have a bit to learn.

 

Here's my poor thing, taken from the side that doesn't show the whole passenger bedside is toast ;) (salvage auction purchase)

My baby wants to drive it, real bad. I guess the Magnum SRT8 I got her just isn't the same as styling around town in a big black truck. She jumped in for a pic with it fresh off the wrecker, auction marks still all over the windshield.

Its not that bad, only when Ive got a load, or a trailer hooked up to it, and no I didn't have to cut the bump stops.

Im looking into finally getting a notch and getting helper bags once I get her out of the shop.

Ride should be ten times better.

Hate to bug you again but you're not having any clearance issues with those wheels? I test-drove that SS on craigslist that has repro 22's and the guy was super worried about taking it very slow over bumps because his tires would hit the fenders. Pretty sure his tires were too big for the drop, though, but I do recall feeling like the edge of the wheel was too far out in relation to the front fender lip.

 

Do you recall which brand they are (Factory Reproductions, OE Wheels, etc.?) and what the exact size & backspacing are?

 

I'm trying to pick some wheels for mine and I'm new to figuring out what will fit on a dropped GMT800.

 

Here's the pics from his ad, don't get me wrong I'm totally not trying to bag on this dude or his truck. He was cool enough to take the time to let me test drive it although I had other ones to look at and ended up buying a different truck.
