86 Silverado from Victoria BC, Canada
 Hey everybody, I was 17 when I bought my truck in October for $500Now it has a 6" suspension lift, 3" body lift, 38.5x14.5x15 TSL/SX. I did the cab corners and rockers before I sprayed it flat black. 700r4 behind a new 355ci, four bolt main. The interior is pretty well untouched so far, I'm just so busy replacing just about everything I touch. In my room I have a shift kit, B&M floor shifter, transfercase drop, and hood pins. Still want to find a cowel hood, stock chrome bumpers, and some gears lower than 3.08s. This is the most recent picture I have, taken way back in March at the school |

Re: 86 Silverado from Victoria BC, Canada
Thank you lilpup. I know where I can get a d44 and a 12 bolt with 3.73s for near free but I don't know if it's worth the time right now to put them in knowing I'll still need something lower.
