excellent, I just ordered a 1999 silverado from a website, but I think Im gonna mainly leave it stock. I'll probably do a unique paintjob, but it doesnt matter, I have no digicam or regular camera. someday i guess.

i think its as low as it can go. i couldnt find any other suspension assembly to make it drag the ground. getting everything to fit the way it is was hard enough plus its all glued together :) hehe. I think it's low enough if you ask me?

Hey, your truck is looking awesome. If you want to add some unique detail to it, go to www.modelcargarage.com and order a grill kit for it, they have a few nice ones to choose from. And also maybe a few subwoofers and amps in the back. I built the same truck and did a 2 tone paint with metallic green on bottom and purple passion on top, loosk good. I have hoppin hydros 20" rims on it and 5 subs in the back. If i had a camera or scanner i would post a pic of it. But hey the trucks looking great, I thought i would just run some ideas past ya. Later
