  1. What are your concerns? And there is a notch kit in this so that you can really drop the back half. Front Inner fender might have to be modded also I'm thinking.To get the most drop out of the front you replace a couple parts in the front to get the most out of it (shown above). And a shock mount relocation and shocks for the front........Needed it to do so that I can lower it enough to be able to get into it. I need the seat to drop about 8 inches min. But heard most of the drop comes from the back.
  2. Something to suggest if your adding to the form would be a Paint and Body area.
  3. I had seen a lot of high miled pickups 220k+ and a dozen over 300k when I was looking for my SS. Just all comes down to taking care of them and doing reg maintenance.

    I just have little bubbling myself just above the tire....suppose previous owner didn't take that good of care of it in the winter, guess I better practice up on my metal work. But rest of it is immaculate. I was raised in a machine shop/ repair so have a lot of experience welding all type of metals. I tackled a 79 trans am that rear quarter and sub frame below the door that was messed up and had to cut it out and replaced it. Actually turned out pretty good. Like to learn how to paint but who knows.

This is what is what was on my order list and 2650 is about what it comes to. And got it from airbagit. Ride tech was just to expensive for my taste, and just got the basic controller for now. Probably get upgrade later on for controller and few other upgrades to do later.

    Yip Upper Mid West helps to take care of it. I have had to drive my 97 Trans Am a few times....wouldn't know it looking at it though. Wash and wax often and make sure to get the dirt out of the usual areas that it collects in the rear. On my SSS the drivers side above the rear tire is starting to bubble when I bought it so I would imagine I'll be doing the same as you pretty soon. Haven't decided if I'm going to tackle it my self or not yet.
  7. The upper a arm and shock relocation bracket up front. But will let you know for sure when I get the kit. They said need to convert it over to a reg 4 wheel drive suspension up front and air bag goes in there some how. And the rear gets converted to 4 link and leafs get ditched. And going to be SW Mn at Lake Benton. 2003 SuperSport is riding his bike down Friday morning from the sounds of it. 6 hour drive but he's betting he can do it 4.5-5 hours......going to be pushing his luck I say. Any takers on the bet?
  8. Ordered full front and rear air ride this week and get it the 17th. But have to wait till May 2nd to get it installed. 2003_SuperSport is coming down the 2nd to help install. Be nice to be able to get in it myself so I can get some use out of it. Will take plenty of pics. Looking forward to yeah coming down buddy. Beer will be cold
  9. One word.......Boost and injectors.....ok three words
  10. Lead foot there buddy .....lol wooooooohoooooo here we go again
  11. Ok someone had to mention it...... how is EFI Live better than HP Tuners? I've talked to someone about that and does tuning and has used both and says that neither really over powers the others as far as functionality goes. And HP Tuners is easier to use.
  12. The more power you put to them the more they will stall out correct? Just because it stalls at 3000 for example with 400hp doesn't it mean that it will stall at 3000 for 600hp. My understanding is that the more power you make the higher the stall with the convertor staying the same....... But have heard good things about Circle D converters.
  13. Man that is sharp......little bit enveious I must say. Wish I had a sun roof too. But like your touches definitely sets it off!
  14. I don't think you can go wrong with the Xs have heard good things from them with local people around here.
  15. Yeah that looks nice I wanna do Blue ones in mine also. I need to find that post on that again and find how many I need and which wattage of ones is needed.
  16. I'd be down for something like that also......
  17. nice you'll have fun with that....congrats

    Resto-mod SSS

    Your final side exhaust turned out pretty good, but I see where you wanted to go with it and agree I like the concept of the side with the square looks really bad ass. I kind of want to do that but through the bumper. Killer build though and attention to detail. Have fun with it and look forward to some video of it!
  19. You just cant beat those SSS rims on these trucks......they just plainly look GOOD. And I like the tint on the windshield also. Mine come with it already and thought I wasn't going to like it but sure keeps the sun out of the eyes. Don't know what percent the tint is on my truck but during the day it gets to be kind of hard to see the gauges so I find myself turning on the running lights. But nice looking truck!
  20. Got out of the house today....yip another chance to get in the truck with some help. No air ride yet to drop it to the ground to get in it. But got to work it and stretch its legs today. Oh yeah baby.....this thing for the weight it is, moves out. Shifts very good.....lets you know there is some pony's behind it. Passed a slow mo doing 55 in a 65, punched it and by time I got around him looked at the speedo and hooooo crap 90 mph. Yip got to watch myself on this one also. Smokey Bear would love me....payday. Word of advice always carry a box of donuts and throw them out the window to confuse them. rolf......yeah did that once before to a local cop.....he thought it was pretty hilarious....got off with a warning also And the ole cob of corn on a string and pulling around town by the bumper. when they pull you over and ask what your doing! Just tell them was out pig trolling and just snagged me one. did that to a local one also back in high school. thanks to the idea from my uncle who did that also when he was a terrior. Real smokey and the bandit there. Him and buddies made me look like an angle.
  21. I got 14mpg on interstate doing 80, but noticed didn't matter if I drove 60 or 80......got the same.
  22. Stillwater is where my friend lives and think its only 50 miles from Oklahoma City if I remember correctly.
  23. There are different types that you can use, probably want to use something like the dynaliner vs the thin stuff. But you can put multi layers of the thinner stuff....is what we did in areas of my car I had for car audio competition's.
