My 2003 ecsb build
Well I bought the truck August of 2011 after my obs decided to give in on me.
-2003 extended cab short bed lt 4x4 z71
-5.3 v8
-all power leather interior
The day I bought it
In the next few days I debadged it and removed the z71
Then decided to plasti dip my center grill bar, got some painted mirror caps and threw in some tinted tails I had
Kept it like this for a little while and decided I wanted to lower it, so i started getting parts together.
the plan was to do decranked keys up front with shackles and hangers out back.
While I was getting my parts together I decided to get some rims so i bought a set of 22s
By this time I had my shackles and hangers, so one day i decided to go ahead and pull the z71 blocks and out the shackles on
Then i found a deal on Craigslist for a fiberglass ******** bed cover for $250, I talked to the guy and offered him $150 and he took it! So i picked it up that night
I began debating on whether I wanted to do the hangers or go lower, so i just decided to take the dive and ordered mcgaughys flip and notches and some mcgaughys 17+ 2" spindles
Me and my dad tore the rear end down one day and I got to work cutting and drilling, wanting to finish it that day
And we did (well almost)
The next day we put the bed back on and i put in some 2500 keys and decranked and threw on some factory 17s I picked up for $200, this is how it was at the dallas meet
On that following Sunday we did the spindles and a little more colormatching
Added colormatched handles
Then did black bowtie and mesh

Put the 22s back on rubbing like crazy
traded my 22s for some ltz 20s and debadged them
Somewhere in there I put a blowmaster and an ebay Cai on
Got my belltech street performance shocks put on
Cleared headlights in
Let me know what yall think

Thanks guys, I'm loving the stance so far.. still need helper bags and some colormatching then hopefully start on performance, eventually I would like a built lq9/80e and maybe a supercharger one day
