it's a girl, she was like what's that daddy? is that for me? she kept looking at me and then it. She's my lug nut dog, first got the truck and had her, took the wheels off and she ran off with my lug nuts, did the same with my bumper bolts.

I saw that deal though and could not pass it up.

It was like hmmmm....

body lift or cowl hood? I'll go cowl, not an everyday price.

Hmmm, why was I was thinking it was a TubaFo. I was actually thinking, what a fuggin idiot, why is he putting a roll bar in a TubaFo when you got that from C4. :rofl: Now that I know, you've been redeeemed. :High 5:

But on that note, I'da done the lift before a Cowl Hood. No thinking about it.

I think the hood was a wise choice because a deal like that doesn't come along everyday. You can get a body lift for the same price anytime. I'm not a fan of body lifts anyway. But they do have their good points when it comes to the GMT400.

Damn, I really need to pay attention on this thread. I agree again, go with the hood, and NO I wouldn't do a body lift either. Of course a suspension lift on a GMT400 is a tad more complicated than just changing front leafs.

yep just a tad more too, cheapest ones are like a grand, way out of my price range.

shipping was free, paid $174 for it shipped, but the fedex receipt said $94 for shipping, and said prepaid would contact third party, so as long as they don't go back and charge my card it was only $174 total.
