Basically I want to add some get up and go to my 89 1500 ECLB 4x4 and if possible use factory fuel injection. I'm not looking to build a monster of a truck so I can abuse the hell out of it by any...

    That would be your thematic air hose, its designed to pull warm air off of the exhaust when you first start your engine. Also I wouldn't recommend removing it because you will not pass a safety inspection without it unless you go to a place where the inspector doesn't care.

    New tires and rims have questions

    How much off-set did you end up with? cause I'm looking for roughly the same look except I'm getting 33x12.50R15s for my truck. The size difference is only 3/10ths of an inch and I was curious if you had any scrubbing issues. Truck looks great BTW !!!!

    89 Silverado Build

    I bought the truck in 2013, and it was a farm truck before I got it. It had the brown interior and it was covered in dirt and full of trash but it wasn't a big deal, I cleaned most of it out on the first day I had it. It had a jasper motor under the hood with roughly 80,000 on it. It had a...

    The Stupid Lift Questions Thread

    I hope this is considered simple but I want to put a 2" lift on my 89 4x4 and if possible id like to be cost affective. I have been told one way to do it is to crank up the torsion bars to the max and put blocks in the rear but it seems like it would put too much strain on the CV axles? if there...
