What an awesome job you've done!! Nice work!
I just bought my first GMC, I lived in Canada for ages, but moved to New Zealand in around 2002. Been wanting one of these beasts since I was like 12, so it's nice to have one!
This is my truck:

1994 GMC C1500, 5.7.
What you've done when it was like this:

Is basically what my goal is.
Couple questions if I may:
- Your truck at the above photo on imgur - was that it lifted 2"?
- What do you think of the RC 2" lift?
- My factory offset on the wheels seems different to those AR Baja, do you know if that is a major? (sorry if that's a dumb question, I'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to wheels, so learning about all the terminology is quite new to me).
I'm 50/50 on the lift, part of me wants to lift, but I'm worried about the stress on other components (what I've read anyways). It's purely for looks.
EDIT: Just searched your post and found:

Just been researching the pros/cons of lifting and jeez, might not be worth it in New Zealand (especially since I'm doing purely for cosmetic reasons!). Seems to put a lot more stress on drive parts from what I've read.
Anyways - great work on the truck though, your threads are extremely valuable!
