Need a new truck...So got a CC S10

Post by Silentmerx »

Hi, Everyone!

I am new to the S10 world and have a family so I figured the CC would be my best bet. I got it a month ago, it's a 2003 Metallic Green Zr5 with 65K on it :rock: . Here is a picture on my FB page.

Only mods so far are the AHL mod, 6k HID's, Yellow High Beams, GM window visors. I am currently working a what lift to do with a body lift and think I might run 31's or 33's depending on the MML kit. Intake and exhaust, along with bed extender and grill.

See ya, 8)

Good looking truck. Nice to see that there are still some low mile trucks out there! Yours looks very nice!

Jongo88 I think I am going to leave the bars there. I personally think the look good and will little kids (3 and 6 yr old) it helps them to now get into the truck since it is higher.

Stock ZR5 bars.
VERY similar to the Westin bars I had on my truck till they rotted out and I removed and threw them away. My only complaint other than they died quickly was the fact that in mud they were only good at getting your pant-legs muddy when getting in and out. Since that's primarily when I drive the CC I don't miss them at all. As an aside they also made it harder to clean mud accumulations out in the areas behind them. :2: 8)

I like mud on my ride 8)
I do not like to see the frame rails however. Hopefully there's still some stock ones out there, I like the style

Westin signature series bars look very similar and are much easier to raise after the body lift. Use structural foam to fill them and seal out moisture. That quiets them too. There should b e a thread around here on mine and what I did to them.
