    Lowchevytrucks8503 garage

    It started with a '85 CHEVY SILVERADO c10 when I was 16 paid $1250 cash for it. wrecked really bad and its been an extensive process. I've added a 350 tranny to it when the last one went out a few years back. Shaved roll pan and shaved tailgate. and lots of body work in the future. I have also added hedman shorty headers and true dual flowmasters 40s dumped at the rear axle. It has black chrome 20s from Boss. Tires are 275/35/20 in the rear and 255/35/20 Nitto 555. I have a djm 5/7 drop that I will be installing real soon. I had lots of pictures but this is the most recent with a digital cam. Truck was orginally black. someone before me painted it maroon over the black. I sanded most of it down primered it. which didn't hold up. now I'm sanding it back down again. the right way.


    My other truck is the 2003 GMC SIERRA SLT. So far denali projector headlamps. JBA 9mm wires, NGK plugs, 2 inch djm lowering shackles, AirAid CAI, Poweraide throttle body spacer, billet grille, and '08 GMC 20'S.
    These photos were taken this year. The newest pic of the truck was taken 6/25/09. The rest were 3/29/09 when my pick up was hit by a donk in a hit and run. Tore up the bumper and core support. Also ripped off the driver side tie rod and I lost steering control of course and hit a gas station. I also hit a few signs and poles on the bed on the passenger side. All fixed for now. The donk side swiped me with his rear passenger side.

    Welp, a guy offered to pay a ridiculous amount of money for the Boss 20s... 3 times what I had in them so I couldn't refuse So I ordered these 22x9 Gun Metal Coys 5inch backspacing up front/ 5.5 inch in the rear. My dad has them and i have no idea what he has scavenged up for Tires. I told him to get 265/35/22 & 285/35/22s. Hopefully he did good lol. Can't wait to get there to slap em on! This is a pic of identical wheels

    Did the drop months ago. Djm flip kit, removed a leaf & shackles in the rear. The front is 3inch drop spindles and 2 inch drop coils. turned out to be about 8 1/2 inches in the rear iirc and 5 inches in the front. Haven't worked on the truck alot lately. Mostly boring stuff, rewiring, replacing old crap. Body work and primer will be done by Christmas. Hope to have a 6.0 in it by the end of the cooler weather.
