About my Silverado

I have a 6" superlift suspention with 1.5" shakles and a 3" body lift all sittin on 39.5" superswamper TSL's.



It has a GM crate 350ho with a comp cam, (edelbrock carb,manafold
and dress up kit.)
There was a set a L&L ladder bars already on the truck to keep the 10 bolt with the 5:13 gear ratio from twisting, but I had to add a pair of skyjacker hydro 7000 steering stabalizers to keep the thing from drifting across the road.





I got a set of hedman headers followed by spin tech ( i know there mostly used on just mustangs but i got them cheap and they sound mean) with two 5" chrome tips. Got'em turned right at peoples windows. Got to love to pipe it at stop lights.
















Out side I added a chrome grill, new mirrors, and a bed rail set. The grill guard has two 150 watt KCs, good for spot lightin.

I put my dixie horn on which sound amazing during a traffic jam and workin on a set of TSL 40's.
New 16in Mickey Thompson Classic Lock wraped with 39.5 x 16.50 Pit Bull Rocker tires. I know their not 40s, but its close enough.







I love these tires they ride a lot better then the TSL's did. No flat spots or anything.
