So little updates. This thing has been one thing after another! Was looking at the lower shock mounts on the lower control arms and what do you know, ovaled out.. So going to be ordering up some weld washers and check for anything else that may be ovaled out (im sure there's a shit load) so I...
I know, when you told me that I was shocked because this seems to be a weak point that everyone always deals with and that is the only reason I bought it. Figured it couldn't hurt!
Can't wait until I am at that point! And thanks, it's been a lot of work so far. And I know we talked about that...
The guy just put a new rack in it a day or two before I got it haha. How many he went through before I’m not sure. But I got new straps on it so I’ll check it out when I get the kit back on.
So picked up my new Mazzulla hubs and an Izzy fab fuel cell cradle with the skid plate. Also went and ordered a TE rack saver for piece of mind, we'll see how long a rack can hold up with this . Looks like I will need to order some new 5/8 studs for the rear and have the wheels drilled out...

Hey everyone,
So I have been wanting to post this up since I bought the truck. Sorry for the long post. Earlier this year I went and bought Marcels old crew cab silverado from the guy he sold it to years ago. I knew it needed some work and got it at a really good price so I jumped on it. Upon...
