So I totaled my tahoe, im still hurt from this so I dont want to post up pics or anything or talk about it.....

But I picked this up last night
06 silverado, dropped 5/7 as far as I can tell. Center console, sunroof, dem cool mirrors with the turn signals in them ect..
Bumpsteer whooped my ass the whole way home but it's not too bad, just have to get used to it.

Thanks guys, and what do you mean by that brett? Also do you have any tips or anything? probably a dumb question but I've never driven/owned/operated a lowered truck..

bumpsteer isn't something you have to deal with. you can eliminate it, or the vast majority of it. for instance, my bagged truck has almost no bumpsteer what so ever. If you take a picture from underneath the truck where i can see the back of the hub and the lower ball joint. then we can look at giving some tips on what to try as far as correcting the bumpsteer. also get a pic of the upper control arm going into the spindle.

Word, maybe one day when my truck comes back from the shop, I can show you what I am doing to address it (if I still have it after the coilovers).

Damn, you drove from Texas back to Maryland? That's a hell of a drive, good looking truck. Congrats!
