Just, no. Take that **** off.
LOL I think it looks pretty nice! It's tastefully done and I'm willing to bet it performs better than the original... And can tow/haul more than a bed full of pillows.

But if I need to haul a bed full of pillows in a factory AWD, Turbo, gas truck, who do I turn to??

The Typhoon is by all means the better pillow hauler. You can squish so many ******* pillows into that bad boy

Sweet Build! and i happen to enjoy the revamping of what gmc should have put out as a later build. Would folks be happy if you put syclone on a canyon instead?i think not lol

Nice rig, build looks similar to mine. Lol. I almost bought an 08 but wanted the 6l80 and newer 6.5 ring gear. You upgrade the carrier yet?

They did that, made it a real thing. You can order them at a GMC dealer. They're lousy.

Still on the factory rear end at this point. We plan on tossing in an Eaton Tru-Trac and sending it

*Update* Truck made 695hp to the wheels on 14-15 pounds. We will be upgrading to a set of ID1300X's and fitting a Magnafuel 750 fuel pump in the tank to see where that puts us.
