    Green98's K1500 build

    Eventually hood will get color matched, right now it's spray canned. Whole truck really needs to be painted so realistically it will happen then. Frame and wheel wells will be done just waiting on a whole weekend free to clean it really good.

    4" Foglights

    Has anyone used lights like this or ones similar for a 4" round opening. Found them on ebay and looking to replace the lights I have in my bumper. The ones I have are bright but no usable pattern, hoping to find something I can use. Have a set of square pods with a good spot pattern but don't...

    Green98's K1500 build

    Played with putting a set of pods between the arms of the mirrors but haven't decided if they stand out too much for me. I'm trying to keep a lot of the addons subtle on their own. Keep leaning back to my original idea of mounting a pair inside my turn signal housings. Needs another thorough...

    Green98's K1500 build

    Then picked up some nerf bars and new style tow mirrors. Painted the mirror caps and bowtie body color, tinted the mirror signals, and separated the front and rear mirror signals from each other, and started to wire everything up. Waiting on a couple relays to finish wiring the front signals...

    Green98's K1500 build

    Been finishing up a few small things, added a hitch step to load the back easier and put the front valence back on. Going to try getting some different fog lights for the front bumper and new corner lights.

    2015 Style Tow Mirrors

    If the seller is motors_zone I ordered same set but with amber signal, wanted smoked but didn't read enough, they worked with me quickly and easily for an issue with shipping, seemed like they would take care of other issues if you run into them. I like the painted caps, feels like they belong...

    2015 Style Tow Mirrors

    I just installed a set of these on my truck, figured out how I'm going to do the wiring for the turn and clearance lights since I want to have full brightness in both modes but trying to figure out the backup light wiring. I was going to wire it into my interior lights circuit but I'm finding...

    Suspension lift on 1998 sierra Z71

    Then factor rim offset, wheel turning vs straight, and suspension movement that inch might be a factor. I was able to smack 265/75/16s into the top of my front fender openings before the lift due to wheel offset. Every truck clears a little differently.

    Suspension lift on 1998 sierra Z71

    I just got a 6" rcx and 315/75/16 tires (about a 35) last week. I'm happy with the stance, worried 37s might be a little tight without trimming. I barely have 4" between tires and the bottom of front fenders.

    315/75/16 Driveability

    I don't watch mileage that close anymore, just accept it's not good. Think I was getting 12-13 before, sometimes down to 11, I hardly run the highway more than 20min at a time and when I do it's usually around hills. Now the speedometer is so far off mileage won't be very accurate, above 10 I'll...

    315/75/16 Driveability

    Thinking the aal will settle down a little, and get closer to level.

    Green98's K1500 build

    Finally got it back after almost a week but atleast its over. RCX 6" lift, 315/75-16 General Grabber tires, and rebuilt front end. Now to find the battery issue, clean it up and do a few other things I've been waiting on.

    315/75/16 Driveability

    I ended up with 315/75-16 General Grabber's. Glad I didn't go smaller due to looks but can definitely notice the drag taking off, brakes don't feel bad. I'll see how it works for a while. I don't tow or haul like I used too but if it was a couple years ago when I was towing daily I don't think...

    Green98's K1500 build

    Now trucks in the shop getting some work done. Front end and tires were about done, needed shocks, the usual. Weird to have it in the shop and me not doing the work but seemed to be the best option right now. Should be getting it back sitting a bit taller.

    Green98's K1500 build

    Been quite a while since I've done much with the truck. Just basically drIving it and a few small things like some extra backup lights and new front bumper lights. Did a little work on my jeep and motorcycle then ended up buying a house and getting out on my own so put a hold on most of my other...
