its the semi-metallic brake pads they use.

mine are still in good shape so far, i have changed to ceramic brakes since i got the truck also, hoping that they will STAY in good shape.
but now, they squek when i first apply the brakes, anyway i can fix the squeling?

is it the cold weather, im wondering?

me and jesse (a98ws6) live in the KC area and it has been bad weather here for about a month and 1/2 lol


If i ever have to replace my wheels, i probably wont go with foose, ill just find some 20's that i like from a good company(with a warranty) and stick with those.

i wonder what some 22 inch AR TTII's (chrome) look like on these trucks?

im not gonna re-chrome them. im gonna powder coat the spokes and center hub black and leave the hoop polished. yeah i could buy a set cheaper probably but i havent found a wheel out there that i like so im just thinkin of makin my own out of the foose wheels.

Well I am out of warranty long ago. I bought some wheel cleaner and I will hit it with some Mothers and my buffball this weekend when it warms up. I just want to keep them in somewhat decent condition so I can sell them. I am going to sell them cheap if anybody wants some nice winter wheels! LOL
Boog, I dont think you can get TT II's for our trucks. At least not the 5 spoke ones because of the 6 lug pattern. We should wash the trucks up and get some pics this coming weekend when it warms up!

I know just giving ya some ****. My wife to be has a 11 sec firebird formula already and it like the other guy said how many people you know with a nice *** looking truck thats 11 sec. with my 6.0 built and a new t-56 with the viper output shaft i'll be looking at another 6 or 8 grand maybe a little less cause i already have the supercharger.

subs and box install pics.....
2~12 in rockford P1 punches, with a MTX 4350 amp, got the box, subs and amp shipped to my door for $250

it hits hard but im still bought a bigger amp so it'll hit harder

its a pretty tight fit also i got about 2-3 inches off of the back of the seats.
i dont have the middle seat in yet, till i get the new amp here.




one of the truck i took today freezing in my shorts
