Is that the one that installs below the strut? I forgot the brand but my buddy did a lot of research on his before getting it and found that was the best one for those trucks.

Also, you and your great aftermarket support suck. j/k

I believe that it is altair. I've been doing a lot of research also and i'm considering a rancho quick lift system as well. And yes I'm loving my aftermarket support so far!!! So whenever you guys are buggin me about my GM i'm just gonna brag about all that aftermarket crap I can buy for my truck! Who knows maybe I'll do a new lift every week just because I can! lol mo ha ha i'm so evil!

That's alright, give me a bit of time and you won't stand a chance in a race.

I don't remember did you answer if you got the auto-locker or not?

Nice, those are a lot of fun. I nearly put his truck into a ditch the first time I drove it, he told me to stomp on it around the corner, I didn't expect the back end to take off on as fast as it did, lol. He was laughing his *** off the whole time (I kept it on the road of course ).

And I found this company in VA that does custom tunes on these new GM trucks and i found a bunch of guys that say his custom tunes are way better than any handheld so I'm thinkin thats what I'm gonna do to get a bit more juice out of the truck And altair remember that there is no replacement for displacement. My supercharged 5.3 will beat your blown 4.7 any day of the week....lol god I knew I was gonna get ragged on for buyin a chevy....yes I'm lookin at you Frenchy!

You work on getting your supercharger, I'll work on getting my turbos, when all is said and done we can settle it at the strip (I may need a few years, I'm not exactly loaded, lol). Also ask Eric about Dakotas vs those 5.3's, he's raced one or two.

When are we getting more pics of it anyway?
