Nice! Glad to hear you had a great first ride! Can't wait to be riding on air!

Re: Test Drive.Sweet Pea.
 

Nice! I put a rear strong arms kit on my truck and it made a HUGE difference. You got a good lookin truck!

Re: Test Drive.Sweet Pea.
 

Very, very nice!

Re: Test Drive.Sweet Pea.
 

NICE :metal:

Truck looks great

Re: Test Drive.Sweet Pea.
 

Very nice, I really like the back end treatment. A completely smooth tailgate always bothered me but I like how you left the upper indentation in it for a slightly more stock look while still being totally custom. I always like to leave the basic architecture intact on these wonderfully designed GM vehicles while still adding subtle stylistic improvements.

fantastic looking truck!!!

Re: Test Drive.Sweet Pea.
 

Looks good as always but the real question is for me at least... How well does it hook up with the pedal to the carpet?

Re: Test Drive.Sweet Pea.
 

Wow, thats a beauty and if I can get mine half as nice I will be very happy :metal: I was not sure about the olive green on mine but seeing how it looks on yours I think I will have to keep it if and when I repaint it. Great job.

Thanks for all the compliments everyone....It has been a long road...Tearing down a just finished project was a little sketchy.But I am glad I made the Air Ride decision....To be honest other than the pain in the but inch and an eighth holes to drill....:waah: Finding a Alt...that would keep up was the hardest chore....Most of all my big items draw a ton of Amps..Dual electric fans....H.I.D headlamps and both compressors running..Will drain a charging system fast...But I got a 140amp...1 wire....she seems to work flawlessly....

Richard....With my spool in, it hooks up fine...I run roughly 80 P.S.I when I feel the need to mash the gas...Although at a dead stop....She mainly just tears the tires off it....(with out break torquing it)...It is a little better than the leaves....But I would not say by much....55/60 mph....If you mash the gas. she still breaks them loose as well....Although with bags its a little easier to control at those speeds..

Mightyatom.....Thanks...Sweet Pea is not the stock light olive green.It is a custom mix....


Thanks mclairmo..My whole idea for this thing has been Simple and Clean...I think I got it....Some would disagree....

Re: Test Drive.Sweet Pea.
