Re: 99 Silverado Buildup

Wow man i love the project. The fenders look great. I wish i had any use to build a prerunner, but i find it pretty pointless living in north carolina. Keep it up and keep posting the pics!

Re: 99 Silverado Buildup

Selling the spindles posted above. They are brand new and cost $1000 bucks but letting them go for $500 bucks! Decided to go with another spindle and hub setup. They are the CST Uniball lift spindles from the 99+ Silverado 1500 kit. Ill deliver too.
