Very cool truck Travis. I see u put the big 6 piston brakes on the front how come nobody offers 4 pistons for the front on these trucks? Love the way u did the whole truck. Thanks

Pasdu-

On the SEM vinyl dye paint i believe we used Semi Gloss. I know it was not flat. The black loop carpeting came from ACC which i got through Radi's Custom Interiors who did the seats. ACC is Auto Custom Carpets. It's a carpet kit they made in loop.

Thanks for the compliments on the truck. I'm having a blast with it. This is my 5th CK body style truck.

It goes for an alignment this morning. Needs to be squared up-never alignd after bagging it-just a rough toe adjustment.

Tranny should be in in a month and hopefully i can get the rear end rebuilt soon too. After that I am looking forward to many great times behind the wheel

If you could possibly post a side shot of OP MT for me and email me the pic. Would love to show the other guys. That thread is nearing 3 pages and still no post of an 88-98 with a BBK. Hahaha


Just don't come over to FSC and pass it off as your own! :lol:

Thanks Travis. You guys are welcome to call me Keith. Thanks for all the feedback on the colors. I really like how the interior is jet black with the exception of a few accent pieces. The carpet just looks especially nice. I can't quit looking at these big pictures on here. It's refreshing to see such simple and effective graphics on a white truck.

What transmission are you going with?

Thanks. I have had alot of LOUD trucks in my time so it's nice to have one clean, simple and sort of subdued.

Tranny will be a fresh 4l60-E with a 2200 stall and a shift kit. Gear star Perf. Trans in Ohio is building it.

Rear end I am just planning new axles, 3.73 gears and a Eaton Posi

This thread makes me regret selling my midnight blue 94 single cab.

Who painted the truck?

I thought everyone said the 4l60e's were "glass" trannys? Most want to bump up to 65/80's...at least from my experience.

DJW 32- My friend Tom mcWeeney painted it. All PPG paint and SEM Hot Rod black for the graphics.

The 4l60 will be fine-not running big HP

Pick up another one (no pun intended) and join the revolution!
