Figured Id add to the mix here and show what Ive been essentially piddling on for the last 10 years since owning this truck. Its a 1998 GMC Yukon with a 5.7 liter vortec V8. Current Mod list and most current photo below so far . I really need to get this thing out more this year only had it out twice last year.

I call it Project Re-Kon

- Eventually either link the rear or buy some rear springs and ditch the blocks.
- Remove the 9 year old plasti-dip and Wrap it or paint it.

This is a Render I had Done years ago through Keg Media and so far Im getting close to what I want out of it. wasn't cheap I think this cost me like $400 bucks for the render

Welcome to the forum and good looking GMC!
 
Thanks Guys, Ill throw up some of the few wheeling shots I have of it. unfortunately I dont get to many I usually end up having to much fun in the moment to stop and take photos :dumbass:. And yea its a bit big. there was 2 spots at Uwharrie I had to use the go arounds last time I went.
 
Updated with some more photos and my old render I had done. can't take credit for some of the pictures. taken by other trail members

Throw some 37- 40's on there and ditch the mud grapplers. That's a cool truck, but I always laugh when I see mud grapplers.
Ive had some really good luck with them the only reason I keep running them. I had a set of maxis on there 2 years ago and punctured 2 of the tires in one trip. I would love to run a set of boggers but they don't make them in 18s last I checked. but you can get them in 22s :mad:
