I like the wheels. They look good on there. I've been hunting for a set of wheels for my all wheel drive Chevy Express van. Those might be the ones.

Holy shit! I just checked prices on them! Made in USA though!

Haha... yeah, glad they came on my other truck. $2kish for a set of wheels. Mine are 18X8 & 18X9.5 front and rear.

AWD you say? That needs a turbo.

Check out Vision wheels, my father has a set on his Sierra. Not U.S.A. made, but have held up so far and look good. I think just under $500 for a set of 4.

I did front shocks, rotors, and pads on my daily driver Tahoe yesterday. Next Tuesday, on the lift to replace the front dampener seal. Damn thing is pissing oil everywhere. Doubt it will ever rust...

Awhile back I redid the headliner and dyed an uncracked dash out of a donor truck. Today I finaly got around to putting the interior back together. Made a huge improvement.

I think a lot of Chrysler products come pre-rusted from the factory.

Over the past few days I have replaced the front timing cover and seals on my Tahoe. Spent a lot of time cleaning up the oil slick and sludge. I also plugged a tire, had a chunk of metal in it. Didn't really resemble your typical nail or screw. Going to redo the driver's seat bottom next, I bought a new leather cover for it months ago.
