arturomoreno Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 ya when my SSS came out the paint shop, the body people slacked on alot of it and the front bumper was put on with like 2 bolts or 3... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diggerdan11 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Nice Truck, looks good to me. If you buy it just make sure you dont put the SS rear bumper on because it will look like crap without the full clading which would have to be custom made for a crew cab. Also dont put SS badges on it! A lot of us get frustrated when we see non SS's with SS badges on them. I knew a guy that swears his crew cab with SS front bumper and rear SS bumper and no cladding was a real SS. "Its a real SS, They only made like 1,000 crew cabs, it was a special eddition" is what he said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueAKSSS Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Looks pretty good to me! Just make sure the front bumper has the right brackets or some type of brackets to support it correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keggerss Posted January 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) na i wont put ss badges on it. i was just in the market for a crew cab. black's the fav and i thought the truck was pretty sharp esp with 57k on it. i was thinkin of just gettin a regular silverado bumper for the back and painting it.... or a roll pan Edited January 21, 2011 by keggerss (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jddmj Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 I agree with Bad Ass Silvy. The Shackle kit is a must.......nice truck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keggerss Posted January 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 I agree with Bad Ass Silvy. The Shackle kit is a must.......nice truck! i noticed the truck has a slight lean to it. drivers side is a tad lower than passenger. is this a concern? i read about a "chevy lean" and didn't know how to fix it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigCountry Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Nah, all crew cabs should have torsion bars up front. If it does, leveling it out will only take a few turns of an 18mm socket. Nice truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
