Hey guys,

Just joined on here a while ago when I was searching for a new truck. Found lots of great information and inspiration build threads on here. I'm coming from the Jeep world so I still wanted 4x4 and to be able to fit some decent sized tires under the truck, but am also intrigued by the go-fast bug and feel like I have a better chance with a 5.3L rather than the 4.0L I6.

Here's the new ride. 2007 Chevrolet Silverado classic, z71, 106k miles, blue granite metallic. She's got a line-x bed liner and appears pretty bone stock. I'd like to do some color matching in the future along with some larger tires, etc.







Found these on craigslist about a month ago and couldn't pass on the deal in case i did wind up with a 6 lug silverado/sierra. They are on some bald tires, and I would like to toss a larger set on them than whats currently on the truck, but since the current set is new, these may be sitting for a while. They are Nissan armada/titan wheels, should look pretty decent with this color of truck, may get them powder coated black.

 

Good looking truck brah. Welcome to the forum.

 

Nice start id keep the five stars color is really nice

 

Great start! I've always been a fan of that color (had a 11' crew cab in it). Those charcoal titans would look pretty good against that color with a leveling kit and some 33s

 

Nice truck I'd love to have that !

Enjoy the fun that's ready to begin .

 

Leveling kit and 33s sounds about perfect. I'm new to the independent front suspension set ups. Is there a right way and a wrong way to level these? I know with Jeeps, it was much better to get larger coil/leaf springs than lift blocks or coil spacers.

 

Seeing as you have the torsion bar front end, I would just add like a set of Rough Country keys and some nice Bilstein shocks and call it a day.

 

Looks clean as new
