'Bagged In A Flash!
Talk about some quick wrenching, the guys from Chassis Tech laid out a '74 C10 over 22s in six hours. What helped this whole process out was the company's Plug-'N'-Play system that houses the valves, compressor, plumbing, and wiring in one package. Not only was all of this work completed in six hours, it was all done on site at the Havoc Havasu show in the grass. If you think you're the king wrench in your town, try doing this job that fast without the Plug-'N'-Play.Chassis Techwww.airbagit.com |

DJM '07 Silverado Drop Kit
Going back to our static-dropped roots, we pulled a brand-new '07 Silverado into the garage for a pretty deep 4-1/4x6 drop kit from DJM. This true bolt-on kit brings the truck down where it should be, and you can still retain your factory wheels. If you have any money still in your budget, you can buy as big as a 24-inch wheel setup. We like the idea of not needing wheels at the same time we lower the truck. It gives the guys with a tighter budget the ability to drive low right away.DJM Suspension(310) 538-1583www.djmsuspension.com |  |

Ponies In The Pipe
To add some ponies to the '07, we went over to Gibson Performance and had the crew install a set of headers and five different cat-backs. Yes, you read that right-the technician had to install five setups. Needless to say, he was glad to see us leave that day. The new exhaust added 15 hp at 5,300 rpm, 18 lb-ft at 3,600 to the ground, and a nice throaty growl.Gibson Performance Exhaust(800) 528-3044www.gibsonperformance.com |  |
