    Thz71's 08 Cab Chassis

    Hey everyone I figured I'd start a build thread for my new truck. I bought this truck because I wanted a truck that could do everything I needed instead of having to have multiple trucks insurance bills etc. It replaced a 2011 half ton that was my daily/camper hauler my 2001 Chevy cab chassis that I used to haul trucks and scrap and anything too big for the half ton and It'll eventually replace my old plow truck its a 2008 cab chassis, deleted and tuned by starlight diesel i believe. 188k miles and the aisin 6 speed. I'm happy with my decision on this truck so far, there are a few things I'm not happy with the fuel Guage doesn't work, the Trans tune is way off I'm and I don't like the overall tune either. The bumper hitch bent the first time i used it and gets worse every time so that will get fixed soon. The chrome is peeling on the grille so I ordered a new one and just have to get it painted and installed. The tires could use replaced so I bought hell bent steel spacers and am still trying to decide on tires. I added lighting to the front and rear to make working around it at night easier. debadged it here's some random pics of it

    Like what I'm seeing !

    Thought I mention this, I like the thought of one truck to do all, when I retired I planned on going there. But then the day when that truck went down and I found out 1 might not be the right answer. Not having a car for a second vehicle, and the wife wanting a small truck, I got her hers, and have been happy a few times since that we had it. Parts running and such. Might consider that ? If you have another vehicle .. than forget what I said, if not ...
