    Went the other day and did a little riding with the girlfriend. Didn't want to go to far since I'm still waiting on my spare wheel to come in!

    I've looked into the BDS lifts, really would love to get my hands on their 4 or 6 inch coil over kit. Also, I'm looking into upper control arms... Getting really tired of replacing them every year! Now when it comes to tire rods, have you been able to find any that are able to take a little abuse?

    2007 GMC Sierra NNBS Build (slowly but surely)

    Yeah I de-badged mine a while back, so it would look kinda funny by itself there! But it would definitely look good there. Nice truck by the way, there aren't too many people with full size pick-ups on this forum

    Roof Rack: Steel or Aluminum?

    For the last few months I've been back and forth trying to decide on a metal to use for my rtt /gear rack. Steel pipe is stronger but it adds to my weight and aluminum being lighter, but a little harder to work with. Just trying to look for some extra help

    Right where GM puts the "Z71" badges on the new body styles, on the front fenders

    What tires do you like? (Merged Thread)

    Well it's that time again, time to swap out the tires! I've been looking into the Toyo Open Country RT, anyone running a set on their rig? What are you running as your preferred tire?

    2007 GMC Sierra NNBS Build (slowly but surely)

    I'm home for one week before I have to head back to work. The flood waters didn't get in the cab, just a little over halfway up the wheels, Lucky me! I have a lot of installs to do, but for now I'm having the great debate on where to put these?!

    2007 GMC Sierra NNBS Build (slowly but surely)

    I'm going to have to look into that... I ran this 3" level for about 4 months without a diff drop (because someone said it was okay) and I went through 2 sets of cv's. Both times not even engaging 4wd! Also, sweet truck man! Really liking that snorkel! If you don't mind me asking; What brand...

    2007 GMC Sierra NNBS Build (slowly but surely)

    Believe it or not, I actually had that problem with a 2" block in the rear. The whole axle shifted and busted up my driver side rear fender. That was the first time I put my hi-lift jack to use! Lifted up the truck, put a solid chunk of a pine underneith the frame, pulled the axle forward with...
