Looks good when are you going to remove that hideous chrome on the doors

woohoo! I can post from work again!

As for the chrome mouldings- I was telling my son this morning that I was thinking bout removing them. At this point(age wise) I am really concerned about paint fade. But I would wager that the next picks you guys see- they'll be gone.

BTW- anyone know were I can get side skirts for an Avy/Suburban? I've seen a few of the Tahoes- and I found the Street Scene ones online- but only listed Tahoe. I REALLY want to 86 the running boards, but not without skirts.

I have 295 30 on the same style wheel and it's not fun. Can't take your eye off the condition of the road for a second.


Can't wait to see the drop.

Yeah- I've had lowriders most of my life- I do that anyway.LOL

Looks damn good! I just dropped my 2011 Avy 2/3 on 26s. Freaking love the avalanche!

Nice! Link to pics?

Dont do side skirts! Just lower it!

As far as moldings go you can get better oem ones... I used to have the same style paint to match ones that on yours are covered with the chrome shit. Get the 2011 plus and have them painted to match! They are actually pretty cheap from Nordstroms Auto.

Wow- you guys really think these hidious steps look better than the skirts?

Though I did JUST find them for Avy's...that price tag is rough. 450 bucks-

You mean needs to come off

Yes. I do actually.

Lol

OK- got back home last night. Dad done the drivers side front and then left the rest for me to get home.LOL So I worked on it for about 2 hrs today- finished up the driver side(just modified the ABS wire bracket and finished tightening all the bolts), and got the passenger side tore down, and built the strut. Dad is going to do the upper A-arm bushing mods in the AM, then I will put it back together. Then we'll tackle the back. hoping to be able to knock it out tomorrow, then get it aligned on Friday.

Also should be getting my Dip to do my wheels tomorrow...going to do them vintage gold w/gold metalizer, should look good.

Pics from today-
Driver side done...


Brakes and struts removed


Ready for reassembly
