Nick Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Well I finally dug into the bank account and put a lift on my truck. The truck is a 2003 Silverado 2500HD ext. cab 4X4 with a 6000 vortec v8. I put a 6" BDS suspension lift on it then completed the job with the 16X10 American Racing wheels and 35" X 12.5" Toyo Open Country A/T tires. Just to give you an idea.......im around 6' 1"/6' 2" and when I stand next to it Im looking directly into the side view mirrors. Some other things I'v done to it since Ive bought it was put a dual flo-master exhaust and a Alpine stereo system with mp3, 500 watt amp, and 2-12" subs under the backseat. The only thing I wan to do now is put a set of nerf bars on it. But here it is after the lift!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowhunt101 Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Re: Lifted My Truck (pics) Hey man that is one heck of an awsome lookin truck. Congratulations. I am also into riggin up trucks to look good like that but it cost so much and the stock stuff works so well I cant see myself doin much with my lil Isuzu 4x4 Pickup. Plus my truck is great on gas (23mpg), but anyways congratulations I bet she sounds good to.-tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fisherguy Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Re: Lifted My Truck (pics) Two questions: 1. where do you get that kind of money? lol and 2. Do you do realize that your gas mileage just went from bad to really bad? Nice looking truck for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you do realize that your gas mileage just went from bad to really bad? [/ QUOTE ] 1. I dont like to brag, but I started making more money right out of high school than my parents make after being on their jobs for over 20 years..... and their salary is over $17/hr. And I still live at home, which mean I dont have any payments besides my truck payment. 2. Yes. I have a Pontiac Grand Am I drive back and forth to work. The truck will be used ONLY as a chick magnet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisherguy Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Re: Lifted My Truck (pics) hahah, just one pointer...chick magnets work better if you don't live at home. lol Definately good you don't have to drive that all teh time with gas at these prices.

wtnhunt Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Re: Lifted My Truck (pics) Sharp truck Nick. Would put a brush/grill guard on it when you get your nerf bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronS Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Re: Lifted My Truck (pics) Yep, the nerf bars and a brush guard would really complete the truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newarcher Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Re: Lifted My Truck (pics) Great looking truck! Personally, I would have used the money on a downpayment for some land somewhere instead. I went the way of plowing lots of money into stereos and cars and I can tell you it is a great way to end up with nothing. Invest your money wisely in some good hunting land before some chick gets her claws into you and you can't afford a pot to $#$# in!
