Stuff like this doesn't just "pop up" on craigslist around here! That setup is good for about a 20-lb. saving at each corner

Yes it was pretty random...as far as I know these are 1 offs and the only set CCW has ever made for a GMT900 Truck/SUV

well I did some work on the truck today....I have over 1000 miles on the swap now so I pulled the intake and the valve covers and re-torqued all the rocker arm bolts (22 ft-lb) and the headers bolts (18 ft-lb)...none of them were loose but it was nice insurance on my new motor and to make sure I stay exhaust leak free...Happy to report everything appears to be in tip top shape...I m gonna change the oil in the next few days as well....

Decided I was already dirty so I went ahead and installed the rear PPV tahoe springs and some new OEM shocks to go along with it....the new are springs are SIGNIFICANTLY smaller than the stockers...it was a 2" rear drop on my Avalanche for sure...unfortunately no before pics only some after pics....

And the Money Shot....Keep in the mind the front will be coming down another 1/2" soon, in the next couple days Im gonna install some new OE struts up front and remove a 1/2" spacer I have in there now so it will have just a tiny bit more rake to it...
