    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Awesome thanks! Quick question, I see he used brackets for the female side, Did you use the stock hardware for mounting the male side on the B pillar?

    Adding lights to the service light switch

    If you use the ignition 12v opening on the fuse panel to switch a relay for your lights, the BO/service light switch will work on them. At least mine does.

    Tintable bedliner w/Gillespie?

    It's seems slightly biased being from a manufacturer of a bed liner product but they're spot on with the herculiner (which is what I used inside my truck). Still good info though!

    supercharged m1009?

    That gen 3 (or5) eaton supercharger barely keeps up with 3800's when you get them moving some air. It would probably just choke on top of the 6.2 even though its a low revver.

    What pictures did you want? Just a pic of the rear springs?

    2-2.5 lift question

    Nope. I do plan on changing to longer front brake lines though as they're a bit short for offroad. On road they're fine.

    2-2.5 lift question

    I used new tuff country front HD 2" lift springs, 2" blocks in the rear with 2" tuff country add a leafs. All that plus new u bolts for the front and the shocks I'm about $700ish.

    2-2.5 lift question

    I forgot about this thread so I figured I should update. I installed the rear tuff country add a leafs and it brought the rear up nearly 2". I'm now leveled out and sitting 2" higher than what stock was supposed to be.

    block heater or no block heater

    I purchased one from ebay for $20. It was a Kats 11612 which was the same one they had at napa for more. Install was pretty straight forward into the middle freeze plug on the driver's side. Worst part is the mess draining coolant. I think it's worth the small investment and time it takes for...

    2-2.5 lift question

    Yep, probably the best bet. I went with the tuff country sx8000 shocks as well which are made in the USA as well as their springs. Was a nice surprise. My add a leafs show up tomorrow and I should have them in by Thursday. I'll let you know.

    2-2.5 lift question

    I'm going thru this exact process right now. I installed 2" tuff country HD springs up front and went cheap with 2" lift blocks. My rear springs turned out to be saggier than I thought because it's currently sitting about an 1 1/2" lower in back. I ordered up a set of tuff country add a leafs...

    Cucv/c5 vett

    That thing has been for sale on eBay forever. I think it looks sweet on the outside but the inside is just terrible.
