It's all about the links, beams, and turbos right?

Just showing the idle after the cats were removed. Still needs a tune.
Picked this up from my dads house this weekend. Semi-float 6 lug 14 bolt with 4.10's and posi. It was my bothers plans to put it in the truck, but never finished the project. This has no priority right now, but will once I get to the point of messing with a turbo or 2.
I have a lockright for you when you're ready.....
what gears are in the truck now?
That will waken it up.
Yep, that's the hopes. Mainly I just want to do burnouts.
Getting new shoes tomorrow. Found my right front and left rear tires had slipped belts in them. Those tires were toast. Also took a picture of the frame notch since the rear wheels and tires are off. Home made job my brother did a few years back
Inner tie rods were shot on this thing, so I swapped them tonight. Rides much better. A lot tighter and no more mini-death wobble. Only casualty was my finger.
Should I pop it?

I always want to, but my wife always says they’ll get infected and fall off
Your finger, right?
Swapped out the old dated lower valance for a new black one with round fog lights. These came on 05-06 Z71 suburbans and Tahoes so it bolts right in. I think it updated the truck a lot. Plus the black goes better with the rest of the black on the truck.
The best picture I had of the old front end.
The new lower with new fogs.

Those valences started in at least 02 on the z71 Tahoe’s looks good
Hmmm, I’ve never found them in our system for that old of a vehicle.
But thanks!

Only reason I know is my wife has an 02 z71 Tahoe
I’m just driving this truck. And laying down some black elevens when the moment feels right. 
She caught my eye today picking up the oldest from school.

Caught my eye Thursday, caught a raccoon last night. 
This thing failed me as a DD Thursday night. Crapped a LH upper ball joint. Found there were cords also showing on the outside edge of that tire too, so now it’s at a buddy’s shop getting the entire front end gone through and an alignment and tires.
Picked up a used set of cooper discoverers at work for stupid cheap.

Still just driving it and racking up the miles. New tires, ball joints, and an alignment make it really nice to drive. Knocked out the front brakes this weekend. No more squeaky or warped brakes.
