[QUOTE=
Finally: I have a second HX on the way with a larger coolant reservoir. I've had the tank built for a while and I figure while I am re doing the plumbing I will get it all taken care of and do it right the first time.[/QUOTE]

What type of HX do you have currently and are you looking to get rid of it?

Now if you want the best of the best AN lines check out these bad-boys. The hose you can tie in a knot and it does not kink. The liner just pulls out of the braid. Because the liner is corrugated. Then the olive just screws on the liner. Super easy to use. Only problem is it is insanely expensive. The damn catalog does not even show prices. Supposedly this is what nascar uses. My buddy used them in his fuel car.

Those are Brown and Miller fittings. Yes, they cost more, but there's a reason they do. In the future I will only use those or Aeroquip.

summit brand is hit or miss...and they know that, hence they ship out replacements free no questions asked.

Got some new shoes... holy **** does it ride well! It's absurd. Better than the 17's as funny as that sounds.

2015 Sierra Denali polished 20's with the Goodyear LS2's brand new take offs. Gotta love the Denali badge

They are a 20x9 with +27mm offset.









I dont see too many trucks with the K2xx wheels on them. I have to say I am really impressed by the quality of these wheels. Night and day... absolutely night and day better than 900 platform wheels I have seen in person. Especially now just a few years later seeing how many 900 wheels are oxidized and falling apart. To anyone considering this upgrade, I think its a great decision.

if those are OEM mounted and balanced, they will ride better than any other combo out there..hands down...iv seen the OEM testing and where they get their tires from, they dont mess around!

Looks great...and like a sleeper...until you hear it!!! LOL

Didn't know you had a rollpan. What's the weight savings with it versus the bumper and brackets?
