Onebad1983's 2005 Yukon 2WD Build Thread

[Onebad1983]

2 yrs is actually a long time. I've burned tires up in a month--when I was much younger

Back in your day you probably had a clutch to assist with that half the teenagers these days don't even know how to drive stick, including me sadly. But at least I WANT to learn

Also I know some people don't like it but I'm keeping the white letters out on the tires. Also I'm beginning to think about lowering this thing, if I end up doing it I'm probably gonna go with a @NORCAL SS kit with helper bags, so I'm starting to look at different wheels. Leave me some suggestions and I'll check them out. Here's a few that I'm thinking about right now.

I could do a silver birch metallic GMC version of @Fosscore's 'Hoe...

Can't get any more pictures rn. Gimme a minute

I also quite like how this looks

I'd also really like to find a set of these...

I think lowered with newer style wheels is a great option!

That's what I was thinking. I just don't think the wheels that are on it now would look right lowered lol

22" TBSS reps are always a win and pretty much all newer gen wheels are worn better by the older gens! Them stock GMC wheels are one of my favs and can be had for a few hundred bucks. I was gonna say you could be a badass and rock some de-clads. But, not able to drive a stick precludes you from badass status, ma'am.

Ouch that Ma'am comment is painful!


But I have to agree. As someone who owns only Hispanic gearboxes I think of all the auto people as lesser beings. Even though autos are faster, more consistent, more convenient and once built correctly more reliable. It's just not as fun to me.
