2004 GMC Envoy 4wd w/o G80

Here she is pretty much stock with just window tint and billet grill not seen in pic

first major day of modding included LED's all around exterior, VVME 55w 6000k HID's lows and fog, Silverstars for high, Quad beams, DRL killer, Volant Intake, Alpine H/U to replace Pioneer that was acting up, Avalanche 3rd brake light, and some VHT action

Looks Good Bro

What aftermarket radio is that? It looks similar to the Dual I was looking at in wally world for $118.00 if so, how well does it work? I'm not wanting anything to expensive in case it gets jacked, in which I would so shave the balls off the monkey who even had that thought in his head...just sayin

Second day to play with the Voy was Lift day. Have MarkMC's 2.5" lift, Bilsteins up front, FOX/BDS in the rear, Z71 and 87's for springs

BEFORE Front:

Got excited and forgot a rear before, whoops

front done

Rear done

had a rear tire carrier fabbed up for me, ended up spraying it with Raptor liner for that rugged look

Had a long wait for my wheels, about a month and a half due to being back ordered but they finally made it to me. I ordered 5 since I am using Markmc's spacers and adapters. I am running Ultra Wheel Bolt 17" with +25mm offset and 5.5" backspacing. Rubber is General Grabber AT's 265/70/17

also not seen in the pics is rear window handle delete. I still need to grab some nuts that will fit the bolts for the tire carrier so I can mount the spare. Had to do some trimming up front, rubbed a little much


Final measurements

It is a cheap Alpine, think I paid about $200-235 with the XM tuner. I dont like it, no remote. It is just a temp fix till I put in the in dash Nav unit, going alpine for that as well

Ahh okay, it just looked pretty close to what I am getting for Phantom. Thanks! BTW- Is the in dash nav your putting in a double din, silly question probably but i'm not the radio person in the family.

yup, going DD for sure, the alpine model is CDE-123

Okay, I don't want to do a double din but would like an in dash nav system. I'm hoping to use the extra space in a single din to put my ham radio.

Only if you have a small radio, I tried 3 radios.

Looking good man! The only problem I see is that trash can out back...

Good luck and god speed!

 

[4wVoy]

yeah, yeah, that damn trashcan, that was suppose to be gone by now. Too much other things came up with my welder buddy. Trust me it will be gone though lol

Just cut it off and decide what pipe to put on it later.

Got the relocated license plate bracket lit up. Picked up LED trailer license plate light, sprayed the chrome and made it black. Used an extension for a 4 pin trailer wiring to make a clean quick disconnect in case I remove the rear tire carrier. Tapped into the existing tow harness. Here are a couple pics. Thought I had one when it was hooked up and illuminated but apparently I don't.
