Re: what to do to my gmc...

IMO, you really need to consider PB stage DM front and rear, and just go ahead and bag it.

Done and done right it would double the value of the truck in just overall impact. Again, just my opinion. The unique GMC look really grows on you over time. I didn't like them until I bought one and I do really like them now. That P-chop really shows the potential and 'new attitude'. I'm not saying lay it out, just a really low drop.

Do some research on the PB mild notch. I know, .. I know .. you don't want to notch but honestly man I think mine is stronger now than it was before the notch. Nate's bolt in notch is incredible. It has 17 grade 8 bolts in it. Someone would have to work really hard to prove to me that any structural rigidity is lost with that notch kit. In fact, I'd say it's better than it ever was. I understand some will just cut and weld a plate to it and be done with it .. but there are better options and kits out there to do it right. PB, CPP, ECE, Ridetech, etc. There out there. Bag it!
