looks good man...I would get an alignment asap tho. Torsion bars will jack you caster and camber angles real good, and you'll ruin those tires in about 6 months. I jacked my torsion bars for a 1" lift on my 99 jimmy and it threw my alignment angles way off.

I am looking to do the exact same thing to my truck. I have a 98 Chevy pickup. Looks just like your but different color. What size tires you put on it?

Okay. Preciate it. It looks good. Hopefully mine will look like that sometime in the near future!

Hey gotstylez,

Are those Mickey Thompson 33s? They give your Z71 a distinctive new BAMF look.
