Well guys, some of you have seen on Betty's page that I picked up another sierra as a daily. I was not planning on this one as part of my pay cut due to oilfield prices was losing our company trucks, but I picked up this 2015 Sierra.

The plans:

3.5" lift (yes it is 2wd but I do not plan to be put in a position to need 4wd)
Clear the heads
Tint
Colormatch stupid flat black fender trim
Colormatch logo on front
De-badge
33's on stocks for now, but will eventually do 22x10 American Forces on 33's. I do not want extremely wide for a daily, just not me.
Maybe a little sound
Color match some interior pieces
Maybe find a different front grille
Color match tailgate handle

Once the first warranty is up:
Cam
Headers
Exhaust
Intake
Stall
Nice tune

Here is the picture as I was signing paperwork, I will update some better ones as some of my list was already taken care of.

Sounds like nice plans for a daily to me! If I didn't have mine that's exactly the truck and plans I'd want. Lol.
 
sweet kinda same truck as my buddies so now when your looks good i will be able to convince him not to get black wheels.

looks good bruh
 
Don't mind me, I just took the liberty of making a few small changes...
We've gotta get this thing in order so you won't be rolling a stock truck when I take possession of Betty :cheeky:

Oh I hate you right now. Make me keep saying "it's my daily, it's my daily."

And someone is more than welcome to buy Betty! I've got something in mind if she sells...so yeah...

Somewhat unknown underground built truck that is getting closer and closer to magazine worthy, someone can come and finish her for me so I can start the next project!

Man that would be a dream truck of mine imo. I wish I could afford to buy something like that. Lol

Motherfucker those wheels look sick on there. I hope to be in one in the next couple years after they decrease in price.

As much as I would love to do it again, I have Betty for that, so it's time to do a mild lifted build for this one. I am just having a rough time figuring out widths, offsets, etc for lifted wheels that would require very minimal, preferably no cutting.

I would like to push a x12 on a 3.5" lift, but worried about how much trimming I would actually have to do or if I can alter offsets to make it work because it sounds like with AF's I can choose whatever offset/backspacing I want but not sure how true and if true, what I should do.

So much research to do, so new to the lifted world...

Well after talking with the wife, she brought me back down to reality and this will be the intended lift/wheel and tire combo but with polished reps.
