Default finally made some mods to the car

Owned this baby for two years and haven't touched it, got the mod bug all the sudden here are some pics of the new wheels plus suspension. Didn't take many pics of install, I found out it's actually kinda hard to take pics while you do it so props to people who do that lol

Went with strano springs and slp bilsteins and have exhaust from texas speed on the way

Had to cut the tabs off for the wheels to fit, always good to have a friend who is a machinist and awesome with metal work lol

2 YEARS, **** I didn't go 2 DAYS without changing something after I got mine, bought it on a Friday night, put the CD player in Saturday and the amp and sub on Sunday, then did the side molding delete 5 weeks later, major suspension was about a year and a half later, but I did all the "free mods" in those first few weeks.

Same with my Trailblazer, only had it about 2 months, sat the first week till I had a chance to put a battery in it, but I've done Plugs, CD player, Side molding delete, Vent visor Delete, Spare tire Delete, Cat-back exhaust, air box mod and several other maintenance related things.

thanks guys, I'm very happy with it. I can't wait to see what headers and a tune does for the performance. the cats are clogged up so it should be a pretty good change

Texas speed headers and off road y pipe are finally on along with a tune from Lingenfelter. Fresh plugs and wires along with a mike norris catch can installed as well. I'm going to get some of his black AN fittings to match the can instead of the brass. The car is definitely running a lot stronger now
