Nice! It's a total worth while investment especially since you have a winch and aux lighting. Have you upgraded your battery yet?

Yup I generally only post pics on my build thread so I'm not posting them twice on the forum. There should be more than enough pics there for anyone lol!

A while back I made a run to the bone yard and found an
Envoy....removed all I could and finally installed a newer
Set of door panels to reduce the rattles that my old panels were
Making also installed a replacement set of folding heated
Door mirrors...the pass. Side was no working properly..
While I was at it tightend up some stuff under the dash
That also reduced some rattles.....but i found a missing pass door
Light switch with a missing wire.....a quest for a different time

That's alright, my ProComp's didn't make a bit of difference from the stock shocks with 230k on them. Next time I'll go with the 9000's over the 1000's.

Today, I was driving home without the radio on, and I kept hearing a grinding noise when I hit the brakes. Got out and looked, lost a caliper pin?! Went to local parts store and bought 2 new sets and replaced all 4. Also when to the local Upull yard and grabbed an emergency brake release handle for $12. Will be using that as a differential lock. Just have to figure out mounting position and how to get a new cable on it, as the old on was torn off before I got to it.
