A Clean 2006 Duramax, Leveled with Bilstein shocks

The owner of this 2006 Chevy Silverado didn't want to do a full lift, but rather a leveling kit fit his needs.  This duramax is normally used to tow toys of all sorts & it is used to its full potential.  Already having 17" chrome wheels mounted on Wrangler tires, the Pro Comp Torsion Key leveling kit was installed.  Shortly after; the gas charged, silver Bilstein shocks were bolted into all four corners of the truck.  Keeping this truck mild & reliable is what the customer had in mind & he accomplished that by doing a couple simple bolt on modifications.

2009 F150 leveled with wheels & tires

Leveled F150

Upon returning from Iraq, our customer was in need of some fun. He decided that a brand new Ford F-150 might just fit the bill. So he brought in his, fresh off the showroom floor Ford F-150 crew cab. He wanted to keep it mild yet have it look wild.  A Pro Comp 3" Leveling kit was installed & the front end now sits level with the rear of the truck.  To get that aggressive look desired, a set of black 20" KMC Addict wheels were mounted to a set of 35" Mickey Thompson tires.  This truck went from mild to wild with a just a couple of modifications.

Another Lowered Dodge Challenger, A Completly Different Look

This customer came to us wanting to slightly lower his Dodge Challenger.  While already having 22" wheels on the car, a mild drop was in mind to keep the stock ride quality yet have that mean lowered stance.  A set of Eibach  lowering coils were installed which had the fenders hugging the tires while having no rubbing issues.  This clean cut Challenger is sitting low & cruising the streets daily.

Lowered 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT 8

Orange Challenger

This customer had a 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT 8 & wanted to fine tune the handling characteristics.  Removing the already race designed factory coils, front & rear Eibach Pro Series coils were installed along with Eibach anti-sway bars.  With the car closer to the ground & ready to beat the pavement into submission, a Hurst short shifter was installed to close the gap from gear to gear.  Saying that this car is fun to drive is a understatement, as there is very little body roll & each gear is closer than the tire to fender gap.  This retired police officer wanted a car a little badder than the cars he had been pulling over & he certainly achieved that goal.

An Immaculate 2010 Escalade Lowered on Lexanti 26″ Wheels

2010 Cadillac Escalade

Nothing looks better than a brand new vehicle right off the show room floor.  Oh wait, taking that brand new vehicle, in this case a 2010 Cadillac Escalade, and bolting some 26" Lexani wheels on it just about does it.  The customer wanted to keep it clean & still have something custom.  A Mcgaughys leveling kit was installed. Then some minor trimming was done up front in order to keep the stock turning radius & not tear the fender wells apart.  When done, this Escalade was ready to hit the streets.
