    How long did your 4L60E last?

    Lifting 94 C1500

    That's a nice clean looking truck. What I always did befor driving my rigs to get alignment done was use 4 1 inch blocks and string. Set the string by placing it all around all 4 tires in the centre . Bring it all tight so it's snappy like a chalk line lol. Then place 2 blocks at centre of rear...

    New guy from up north

    Yeah I painted all the bare metal edges from the cutting then gave the underside a good coat of bedliner before placing back down. I cut hatches in every rig I ever had.Easier to hide with trucks though because usually the plastic bed liner just hides it as if it were never there haha

    Wanting straight pipes on my 93

    I just lopped off my stock muffler and tailpipe on my 98 burban with 350 vortec. Put a cherry bomb extreme duel in duel out on it and dumped it in front of axel and left in the cats. It's pretty quiet at idle which is good for my neighbors when I go to warm it up at 5am this winter. But once...
