    I love that you include little snippets of family life... I think a lot of people might take for granted or don't see what it takes trying to do something like this when you also have a family.

    Maybe you can use part of either old panel to cut and match your missing puzzle piece? That way you won’t have to worry too much about color matching. Anyways, just a thought my braddah🤙🤙🤙

    Starting off bud love your channel second I am die hard Chevy and it’s nice to finally see another die hard Chevy channel.I’ve been wanting to comment for a while now but I was waiting on to see if you was going to buy something besides a Chevy and so far your true to the brand. I know I’m a nobody and it probably doesn’t matter to you but thank you buddy for staying true to something you believe in and I’m not bashing on any other manufacturers at all it’s just I’ve had so much reliability with Chevrolet and just so much you can do with them at the cheapest price. You can’t go wrong but enough of me ranting thank you bud for the entertainment and staying true to what you believe in.

    Looking good. I hate that the aftermarket companies have zero QC. That fitment would drive me crazy. There’s really no reason for it , of they used your model year for T&E before mass production. I can understand minor differences from OEM. But those door gaps are huge

    Just happened to see this video on the C-5. That’s a lot of work that you put into it but it came out great. You might want to put an oil catch can on the C-5 also. I am putting one on mine after removing the throttlebody and seeing all the oil laying inside the intake manifold.

    I didn’t see you remove the stock leaf springs. Was it difficult? Do the coil overs really make that much difference? Did the upper shock mounts have to be reinforced to support the front end weight? Cool build!

    • @LonestarHawaiian
      @LonestarHawaiian  9 місяців тому +1

      Leaf springs (front and rear) weren’t too bad getting off. Coil overs are night and day. Especially being able to adjust. No reinforcement needed 🤙🏽

      @@LonestarHawaiian I have an 03 Z06. You replaced the stock base model springs. I wonder how much different the coil overs would be compared to the stiffer Z06 springs? The Z06 handles great, so I wonder if the coil overs would be worth the money? I bet the brakes would be!
