New to me 2011

Picked this up about 3 weeks ago. 2011 ECLB 4X4 Duramax LT package 40K miles. got it for a little over 25 out the door with my trade in (05 Sierra 1500 4X4) plus 5K cash

When i picked it up



Traded this in on it (took my wheels, toolbox, backrack and strobes)


Just need to get a fisher mount and wiring for the new truck then we'll be good to go plowing

i did have a 7'6" LD on the 1500, but the wiring and mount (after some mods) will be going on my dads 07 Classic Duramax. Thank you for the complements on the new truck

Nice looking truck. Sounds like you got a pretty good deal on it. I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of it with the plow on.

Got the mount and wiring installed (gigantic PITA wiring in headlights) but looks pretty good all said and done.
very minimal cutting


Controller location
