I rarely run across a NNBS VMAX on the highway or see them on dealer lots but I've never seen one in an extended cab. I figured they were availible since I was on the GMC website last night and built one with the extended cab. It even said they were availible with the short bed from the crew cab. Anybody ever see a VMAX extended cab crew bed setup?

yep, i've seen one (extended cab crew cab bed) and ridden in it, they have lots of potential, with a tune, no cats and borla muffler, it ran a 14.3 on 20's.

i have yet to see an 07+ extended cab short bed, but I saw the 03-06 ones, looked goofy as hell IMO

I didn't realize the 03-06's came with that option. I saw an 07 extened cab short bed with a 5.3 on the lot the other day. Only thing I didn't like was the 17" wheels on it. they just look to small now. Put some factory 20s on it and lower the back and I think it would look real nice.

This was my reason of asking this question. I wanted my next truck to be set up like that but add a nice set of headers to it. Not too many mods but still decently quick. Did you find the truck looked funny with the bed or did the whole look of it flow pretty good?

1 more question, do these trucks come stock with 3.73's?

i have the extended cab standard bed (6') with the vmax. 3.73 and 4.10 gears are the options for this setup, BUT if you get the factory 20" wheels you also get the sport Z60 suspension and 4.10 is Not an option with the wheel and suspension package :gay: . i cant remember for sure now because its been awhile since i ordered mine but there was something else that was odd like this when building a extended cab short bed(5'8"). i think you can get the vmax in that configuration, not sure tho.

it had 3:73's. i dont think it looked funny, it was dropeed i guess 5/7 and looked awesome.

yeah i have seen and ridden on the 07 rgvsierra is talking about and looks nice and runs fast but i think it had more like a 7/8 drop ..it was slammed

Got any pics of it?

i dont ...ill see if my friend does

Here's the catch, you can get the ex-cab short bed with the Vmax engine, but not with the Max tow package. So you are stuck with drum brakes on the ECShortbed. The standard size bed has the tow package with disc brakes available. GM is :gay: sometimes.

yea but the trailering max package comes with stabilitrac.. and you wanna talk about an anoying safety nanny

Can it be turned off? Man I'll never be able to decide which configuration I want :cry:

yes, there is switch on the dash

but you have to turn it off every time...

i have stabilitrak in my G6... shit was fucking garbage in the winter and I didnt figure out how to turn it off until summer lol

My 02 has something like that except it just says traction control on the button. Same aggrevating shit if you ask me, got turn it off every time for a burnout or whatever. It really sucks in the rain, gravel, etc. It "reduces" power to the wheels for about 3 seconds so if you spin em when you pull out in front of traffic your kind of a sitting duck.

My stabiltrack sucks when you want to play around untill you turn it off. Its will only help when you let off when the button is off. Its actually will straighten you out real quick and safe. It has helped keep me out of trouble. I like it just forget to turn it of sometimes in the desert and that sucks.

i want to see the v max x cab with the crew cab bed? any pics yet?

but you have to turn it off every time...


You can disable it in the programming.

here is the 03-06 extended cab short short bed. its hard to judge by lookin at the pic, def need to see it on the road. looks goofy as hell.

yeah I was there wen Dan was tuning it, it looks freakin sweet!!!! It doesnt look weird at all. But I heard that they made very few of them and stopped making them already. The guy who owns it is named Pedro, his gmc sierra sportside made front cover and voted truck of the year for Truckin Magazine like 2 years ago.

Picking up my NBS ECSB on Wednesday. Trying to figure out if anyone offers a lowering kit for it in 4WD.

i dont think they make a 4x4 kit yet for the 07s

Me 2 Im On The Hunt 4 One But They Are Hard 2 Find. (ecsb 2wd)
