Driver's side is done. It felt sacrilegious to peel those Z71 stickers off I was a little sad.

I haven't been able to drive it yet. The alignment is all jacked up and since I didn't have the 2wd u-bolts I cheated and just flipped the stock lift blocks to the top of the springs. I trust it enough to pull in and out of the garage, but not enough to drive at any decent speed going down the road. Once I get the u-bolts and drop shackles in I'll set the final ride height in the front and get the bump stops all trimmed and crap, then I'll have it aligned and start driving it.

Just another inch in the back. No reason to pull the spring pack apart....I'm trying to be patient, lol
