Hello gang

Thought I'd start a little thread to show the progress pictures of my rcsb over this winter.

I'm going to to be pulling the bed off, front ad rear suspension and re painting stuff so it's nice and clean like my lmm was.

Parts ordered are
22x8.5 6"bs
22x10 4.75" bs
Raceline illusions grey centers polished lips
255/35 and 305/30 pirellis

Moser shortened axles
Moser diff cover
Djm lower and upper control arms 5"
Oem spindles and springs

Once the wheels go on I'm gonna see how the fitment is, may bring it down another inch withy shackle and 1" coils
 
Tonight I got the bedrug pulled out and washed under the rug, hasn't been out in 6-7 Years so there was some junk under there .

Truck only has 50xxxmiles however te previous owner fucking oil sprayed the truck, so I want to clean up under the truck. The bed is totally unbolted but didn't have any help to remove it tonight, but tomorrow the pressure waging begins. Should look like this when done

In for pics as I'm looking to do the same thing this winter. Couple questions for ya:

Do you use any chemicals to strip the coating on the frame, or just power wash?

What are you planning on using on the frame/what did you use on your LMM?

Hopefully you are done before I start!
 
I don't sell wheels, I just store them. Plus those gmcs were rand new this summer and literally have zero blemishes. Probably end up on my ccsb to replace the chrome tahoes
 
I use a degreaser called purple power, works great at stripping any grease based product. Spray, soak, then power wash off.

Product I use is from rust check, rocker gaurd. Dries very hard and a nice satin finish, only available in Canada
