And thats it for now. Progress should start picking back up in a couple weeks hopefully
 
I completely forgot about this site until I saw an instagram post today. Man I've been slacking.

Time for a little run down on the shenanigans that were going on. After bringing it home from the first shop (form the only post I have), and more less getting screwed out of some money that I had already paid for work to be done. I got burnt out and let the truck sit for about 6 months to a year, I don't really remember. Then after doing a bit of research for new fabricators, I came across the guys at LSK Suspension, when I first got in touch with them they were just moving into their first legit shop and decided I wanted them to finish the truck. It started off slow, I let them put it on the back burner to finish other trucks and gave me an opportunity to save more money. And every month there work got better and better at fast rate and before you knew, not much had been done to the truck and they were moving into a bigger shop and San Dimas. No biggy, they did all the work to move the truck to the new shop. And things stayed the same, truck was a 2nd priority to most up until the beginning of the year, I started pressuring them for deadlines and then bam, before I knew the truck was ready to come home. And this is where it sits, 3 years later . "Everything" is done, minus the drivetrain, plumbing, and electrical (FML).

Sorry for the photo dump.







































So after getting the prerunner back, and not having a truck to tow it with, I started thinking about new trucks, diesels, etc. And well about a month and a half ago, after a night of drinking, I decided to tell a friend to buy my 2011 Silverado DD for what I owe on it (Jokingly) and the next morning he comes over saying he approved for a loan and I couldn't believe it...
(The old truck)


So once the sale was final, I went to the dealer and decided to order myself a new 2015 GMC 2500HD, and she finally came in on Monday... then she made her rounds around the shops up here yesterday, and well she wasn't stock for more than 20 miles. How she looks today.
