Default Newb from Indiana

Just got me a 01 single cab Chevy 1500 short bed truck this past week was really looking to get a 4x4 but this truck stood out and iv been looking for one that’s sunset orange as well so I couldn’t pass this up.

Not looking to do to much I want to drop it down a little looking to put some nice 20" wheels on something like some torque thrust's or similar also been thinking of getting some chrome Silverado SS wheels I really like the way they look. also just want to do some bolt on’s that will help it out some as this will more likely be my daily driver since I have my two Turbo Regals to work with as well. It seems to get up and go pretty good with the 5.3 just want a little more out of it.

What would be some good bolt on’s and stuff I could get that will help out some?

Ill have to get some newer pics up of it I ended up debagging it and taking the side molding stuff off as well and I plan on either lowering it 2/4 or just leveling it and I’m still looking for the right wheels for it I’m looking to go with either 18"-20" wheels but just haven’t found anything that’s caught my eye.


Got one question I was trying to sell a nitrous bottle but it wont let me post anything, why?
