History
I bought this truck in 2006 for a simple commuter vehicle and has since turned into a fun project ride. Has a single cab, 2.8L I-4, Manual everything, cloth seats. I love my Colorado. May not be the tightest one out there, but its still fun to drive and turns heads.

Suspension
DJM 3"/4" Lowering Kit, Monroe Sensatrac Shocks Front, DJM Shocks Rear, Moog Tie Rod End Arms. Did not notch frame but drive carefully as big dips and speed bumps will slam on rubber mounts on axel. Bumpstops cut down to about 3/4". Auto Locking Rear Differential. Belltech 1" Front Coil Spacer leveling kit.
Wheel and Tire
255/45/ZR20 Falken FK-452 Tires on 20" American Razor 6 Wheels. 45 Series provide nicer ride and accurate speedo but rub sorta bad in the driver front fender well. Will probably switch back to 35 series when these go bald...
