Spikes and center caps! :waytogo:

I installed 3/4 ton springs with a 2" spacer in my '94 C1500. Was level with a 2" block in the back.
Wasn't alignable, rode like crap, and looking back on it was probably kinda dangerous lol. But it did look good :)
I wish I could find the old picture I had of it.....
So.....wait......you put 3/4T springs, in the front.....with spacers?????

Camera mount(very solid)
Didn't trust the dash gauges so I added these,not sure how common this mod is

Yeah, I don't trust my gauges either! I need this mod!

I dipped my stock rims and my grill. Not too unusual, but I added a couple accent colors. I haven't seen anyone do that on stock rims yet.
Pardon the dirt and ps fluid on the ground. It's on stands right now. I've been working on the pitman arm, idler arm, and ball joints.

:waytogo" on those wheels! I have not seen anyone do that, since the 90's! :anitoof:

I made a cup holder for my crew cab and a nicer version for my wife's obs Yukon that is formed around the front of the console.

I also was sick of hitting my shin on my brake controller so I designed a dash mount for it and created a new linkage so that the activation arm could moved via a knob

I wanted good trans cooling for my crew that had a zero percent chance of being contaminated by antifreeze through a crack in the radiator sides so I bypassed that junk and added two B&M supercoolers and called it a day. One of the best mods I have done but very controversial when trans guys hear about it. I have done it on two trucks now and it has been nothing but positive.

ALL very functional mods, LOVE IT! Awesome job!

Not so much original, but I did convert them. I took the plastic chip guards off a F-150 and installed them on my truck. Just a few snips to contour the wheel well ans some double sided tape. The cuts I made are hidden behind the flares.

Plus I converted a Tahoe interior spare tire mount to a bed mount.

And my MaganCharger with a custom adapter made so it will work with the marine intake. I need to take pictures of what it looks like now that it's all painted, but here's some old pics.
Radio / Navi pic no worky! :(

Color matched the bowtie emblems on my 1500 badges.
Replaced the cigarette lighter socket with a USB jack for my headunit, along with a 3.5mm input. I'm also thinking about putting a 120v outlet beneath the cargo light switch.

No pics but I took the Silverado badges off of my rear pillars and glued the best one on the dash panel where a push-button 4WD switch would be if my truck wasn't 2WD.
Finally, since I hate the radio stations around here, I covered my antenna in heat shrink, mounted it inside the passenger fender and plugged the hole in the fender. I ended up putting it back to stock but if I ever repaint the truck, I'll fill the hole in and go back to running it like that.
That USB port is a great idea.......I'm gonna steal that idea!
