    Post your lifted 2wd's!

    It was a little prettier back in the day. It was fun and i dont really regret it. Smoked a lot of rice grinders... Its just been neglected and parked for abt 7 years now. Its gonna take sacrifice, but im gonna resurrect it to better than ever.

    1993 GMC Sierra ECSB C1500 Build

    Good stuff man! I checked out the first 4 pages, and the last 5. Way to stay after it! Nothing to be ashamed of. True work of blood, sweat and tears. Looks good, be proud. I only hope to put that kinda time and money into mine.

    stuff that catches my eye

    Amid my stumbling and post hijacking, i must agree. Cyclones and typhoons were/are sadly overlooked. Sweet rides. My 95 5.7 has bowed down to a few. I hung around for the bottom end lol.

    stuff that catches my eye

Just look up 88-98 gm truck and it comes up. Brand new, slight issues, but usable. 50 bucks. Ill keep tryin to fig out...

    There it sits sad and lonely. Idk y the grille hasa rainbow look lol. Must be my phone. Anyway, the journey to tearing down and rebuilding to lifted begins. Ill try to post pics of the heyday. It wasnt always so gross. I wanna go back to gmc grille. Maybe cowl or stock hood. Full off road trim...

    I guess those examples do have a mild beadlock style lip. Im liking these black rims.

    Im lightyears away from even buying rims and tires, but in NE Ohio, it seems like the trick thing to do with any lift is a ridic high offset rim, big diameter, to get a "skated" look. I think i like a beadlock or fake beadlock look, big offset. Has this ship sailed? Or hasnt caught on?

    Mine is lowered 2-4, cant wait to lift it! No way can lifted ride any worse than lowered with low profile tires. Not to mention the geometry/angle of the rear shocks when lowered renders them just about useless. I couldnt keep shocks under mine. Just cheap o "toxic shocks" but they shouldnt...

    Installing a leer cap on a stepside

    I worked at A.R.E. in massillon ohio from 98-05. They make very high quality caps and lids. I have had a 95 stepside since 98, and bought a fiberglass tonneau cover when i worked there. These are the ******* of clamps, but they do have their own style that work great. The only issue i had was...

    Swap my stepside for a normal box?

    Im also wanting to do this swap. I havent been under mine in years and have never had the bed off. Is it safe to assume the wire harness for tail lights and license plate light will reach? Or is the fleetside harness needed?

    First things i gotta do with suspension is nix the drop spindles, leaf hangers and shackles. Anything i gotta know to watch for when swapping up to lift spindles? Assuming wheel clearance becomes an issue?

    Absolute newbie here. Just wanna say how much i respect and love the rides here. Im excited to have stumbled across this forum. Im abt to start a long painful slow build on my 95 GMC 1500 SC stepside. Ive owned it since 98. Had some glory days as a lowered cruiser. Been neglected for many years...
