I replied in the test forum, but you may not see it there. Truck and plow looks great! The white truck with the forged wheels and yellow Fisher V plow go together really well. Please post more pics if you have them, thanks! Mike :drinkup

Hey Mike- Are you a pic junkie too?! I love looking at the pics- gives me some ideas for my own stuff!! I'm thinking about what I'm going to do with my Blazer for next year- A custom made back plow is on the top of the list right now!!

Yea, I love looking at everyones pictures! I love to see trucks and snowplows, or even heavy equipment! Now that I think of it, if you guys wanna start posting pics of your girlfriends or wives, Id be happy to take a look at those too! :D I dont wanna upset Chuck or the moderators though, so lets just stick to trucks, plows, and heavy equipment!! :) Mike

Philly, me too, it took a while, but when its a dressed up model, such as his, it doesnt look bad! NSSM, no offense, but Im surprised by how much the frontend drops with the plow raised considering you do infact have a set of Timbrens in there. Although, the Fisher HD V plow is a heavy plow. Looks good regardless! Mike

Yeah, it does sag. I think it is automatic with the Chevy/GMC. I can't imagine having the V without timbren. I have not touched the torsion bar. The truck rides real well with it on though. What a difference having the V when driving down the road and not fighting the wind.

Looks good, I like the way the yellow fisher sets off the white truck. Just need some Cab clearance lights, and you're set!

I'd definately give the torsion bars 2 or three turns just to see if it helps, I think it will, plus about 900-1000# of ballast, and I think she'll be a plowing monster! :burnout

Try cranking the torsion bars up 6 to 8 turns. It raised my truck over and inch and the ride is still good. Less sag. I havent tried the timberens yet. there next on my list...
Nice looking truck man...I think there is one just like it out side my front door. :canada :burnout
