Yeah, truck looks good with those blinged out chrome babies on there.

How many miles you have on the truck, it's really clean looking for a '99.

Yeah my 99 just went over 102,000 miles and it still looks pretty good. Damn, I wish I could have some of the hours I spent detailing it back.

AWESOME WHEELS! You dont often see good looking 8-lug 20's. I love those, and have the same tires as you. Your cornering should be a lot better as well now. Great choice

Truck has 54,000 miles, next up is a 2/3 drop and the heads/cam/intake/exhaust swap, after that is the stall (TT2600HD)....I HOPE to have it all done by the spring....

The handling is ALOT better but the shortcomings in the rest of the suspension are now VERY visible....it REALLY neads a rear sway bar and an upgraded front bar....the drop will help it some because the front will be resting on the bump stops (gotta love torsion bars ), but the rear rolls BAD around hard corners,

The reason the trucks looks so clean is...like Jsmith said...ALOT of cleaning and detailing, this thing is my baby and I take care of it !!!, I expect it to perform the way I want it to when I want it to so in return I treat it pretty good....regular and preventative maintenance, good quality parts, if it's broke I fix it RIGHT, things like that

oh, and BTW....THANKS for the compliments !!
