Hello everyone. I am new here...of course. I just purchased a 2008 Chevy 2500HD last night. This is the second diesel in my corral. I am in love with this truck already. In fact she is at the shop getting a 6" Tough Country lift and 35" tires as we speak. MAN, I can't wait.

Thanks for all the warm welcomes! I live in Mountain Home. Here is a pic of how she looked last night. Absolutely love the color!

Man, that's about as stock as stock gets! She's a blank canvas!

Glad to be here! can't wait to learn more and share all!

I know right!! It has been fairly unmolested. Odometer reads a mere 42,800! It has, apparently, a 5" DPF back exhaust (still need to check to make sure) and a hideaway goose neck hitch in the bed. Other than that she was stock. I can't wait until I get her back with the lift and rims.

Welcome to DF. Going to look sweet with a lift and new rims/tires. Post up some pics when you get it back.

If I can ever be of assistance, don't hesitate to ask.

Take care,

Thanks, I will keep that in mind. I can tell already that this forum will be a HUGE help, just like the Land Cruiser site i frequent.

I suppose it didn't. First thing we didn't like about the truck was the small tires. This is a big truck...big trucks deserve big tires. The wife says "the tires are too small" and I say OK, let's fix it then. Factory height doesn't allow 33"s without some sort of lift and I wasn't going to do the torsion bar crank or leveling kit with the torsion keys due to the rough ride. So the lift idea was born. Truthfully, it was what I wanted anyway. Plus it didn't hurt we had REALLY good equity on our trade-in and we got what I feel was one helluva good deal on the truck. Hopefully she will be done today!

Got the lift

Here she is in all her glory. 6" Tough Country with 35" Toyo's and 17" MHT Octane wheels. She rides NICE!
