Jan 25th 2009 update:
I have decide to give EDC a break for the winter. Just took the belt off for now.
I was planning on garaging the truck for the winter but have decided to keep it going daily. I am still running the truck on 200 psi daily i have just added another Viair 380c to the system to achieve that. One on each frame rail. I also have added Airbrake Antifreeze to the system. A few cap fulls poured into the tank and luckily even with these below zero conditions I have not had a single valve stick or get stuck on me.
I have a few parts laying around indoors right now and awaiting spring time. New crystal headlights and corner lenses, a T-Rex full face billet grill, RE7 bags which I plan to use in the front and a few little things. Spring cant come son enough!!
Winter Mode:
Starting spring of 09'
All in all i would say winter went well. No frozen valve or compressor issues at all. adding airbrake anitfreeze to my tank def helped out for the few months of cold.
Now its getting time to put a few ideas Ive had this winter in moition stay tuned.
Euro clear headlights with 8500k Nokya low beams, 2500k Luminics yellow fogs

Been a while.... Updates: June 14
truck was involved in a head on collision around the end of May. Minor frontal cosmetic damage
(hood,grill,bumper,headlights and fender)
all new parts are in just need to assemble. New 2.5'' SVO cowl hood, smooth chrome bumper, new grill with chrome strip, billet inserts and a billet Chevy symbol. New headlights with 10K HID's, 3K Yellow HID kit for the fog lights. The foglights are hella bright!!
I've got the hood and fenders being sprayed and as soon as I get them I'll get to assembling the front end.I got lucky and the polyurethain Xtreme valence is undamaged. Just needs new paint. Trying to have it all ready for a show in Plainville June 28th.
also I have almost everything to complete a charcoal interior swap with bucket seats. cant wait to get rid of the 60/40 bench seat and all the light grey plastics..
Here's a couple I took right before the accident and the aftermath of the accident damage..
Torn down and off to paint
Dont care what anyone says, tree's dont move !!!
This is the grill, not actual. using billet inserts, billet Chevy symbol and a chrome bumper to match the theme
SVO cowl hood. Hopefully it looks alright on the truck
10,000K HID
Hazy day, pics taken from my shity Blackberry.. I have better pics on my digi I just need to load them.. Check out page 7 after this
2nd test fit after some minor adjustments.. still needs a little work but for the most part things are close to being lined up.
Radiator support was still a little crushed in from the accident, so thats why the head light looks like shit.. New rad support has since been installed
the Harley Davidson mirrors look way better IMO than the old ebay mirrors I had.
