The only reason the spare is still there is for the weight in the back the get the rear down or else I would ditch the spare

Krazy glue a 50$ weight in the location haha.
Ik what you mean about the weight, i used to have a stepside and would spin 24's on 305's. Had toget a bed cover/sand bags to get close to the weight of a fleet side.

Hey guys, does anyone know how to change the bumpstops in the front? Cuz I need to put new ones in I think because I cut the front bumpstops super short (almost to the cups that hold them) not knowing the theory of how the torsion bars worked and that the bumpstops actually need to always rest on the a-arms. Am I on the right track?

They just pull out, just grab them and yank em out at an angle, can use a screw driver to help get back in. they r held in by 4 indents in the cup. Replace with some Z71 jounce stops. Much better ride IMO-Max got me on them and they ride better anyways.

You are right on using jounce stops. Are torsion bar suspensions are made to use them, acts like a progressive rate spring. I have run with stocks, cut stocks(different heights) no stops at all, Z71 stops, cut Z71 stops, and finally found a height that works for my setup and feel with cut Z71 jounce stops. But the Z71 stops felt the best compared with stocks.

Nice. Well I'm gonna grab me a set of some Z71 bumpstops and slap those bad boys in. Where's the best place to get bumpstops like that from?

So I did some shopping around and found some bumpstops but only place I could find them at wa the Chevrolet dealership. $24each. Is that about what you paid for yours Whiteout?

I really don't like big wheels.

But that being said I really think your truck looks bada$$. IMO 24s would be better but it does look great.

And yes you need to do something with those vent caps. It brings down the whole cleanliness of the truck.

Looks nice, how is the ride with those? btw, what are vent caps? lol

The plastic covers that are above the taillights. Also called appliqués.
