Well, it's been lifted a bit, but it's not done!

Since buying my truck (5 months ago) brand new it's gone through 3 stages.. Stock ride height, leveling kit and now a 6" suspension lift. The new tires will be here on Friday, just in time to put them on for the weekend!!

Anyways, here she is when I bought her:



Here she is leveled off (and with 33" Nitto's)





And here she is now...



(Same truck as above)



I'll post some more after the weekend when the tires go on.. it should make a huge difference, because now these tires look tiny..

I do try to keep it 100% spotless at all times.. It's not a work truck, just for fun..

The leveling kit consisted of 2.5" front plates and extended shocks. Pretty simple install.

The kit I got is from Superlift, with Bilstein (Stainless) shocks. I'm putting the dual front shock kit on shortly..

As for the tires, nahh, they look pretty small on the truck in person.. I'm putting a set of 37X13.5X18" ProComp XTerrain's on.

Very nice.

The Z06 looks good as well. Are those HREs I see on that Vette?

Yes it is!!! They are my boys!!!!

As for the compliments on the Vette, thank you!! It's an aftermarket hood and custom paint (it flips in person). It's pushing 411RWHP and goes like a raped ape. I just wish I took it out more then 3X this year. I CAN'T STOP DRIVING THE TRUCK, it's an addiction!!!!!!!

It's a long story, but YES.. I had to do a photo shoot of the other truck you see there.. There's about $30k in custom audio/video components in there,and the theme of the truck is "The Reaper", so it was only fitting I did the photo shoot in an ancient graveyard. It worked out well, because I got over 200 incredible pictures for the magazine.
