2008 GMC Canyon Upgrades

[Cowboy Cadillac]

nice accessories! somebody around here is running around with one of them jacked right up and has a solid front axle too, kinda extreme! I should get some pictures one day...

I've been looking for him to pass him a biz card....my neighbor has a lifted colorado and he loves it.

What kind of off-roading do you do with your Canyon? We run a Dakota down bush trails and in mud bogs...the size of the truck fools a lot of (fullsize and jeep)guys into thinking they'll be towing me out....so far I've only been towed once.

Smaller trucks make awesome offroad rigs

We use it for exploring in the southwest desert. A typical day exploring can include 300 miles of offroad travel.

It looks great and I love the axe.

What sort of 4x4 setup does a Canyon have? Do they have a standard New Process transfer case?

 

[MOPWR2U]

Yes, they have a part time 4x4 transfer case that is controlled electronically with push buttons on the dash. You can choose either 4L, 4H, or 2H. The front differential is open, and the rear has a limited slip differential. This project may take several years to complete, but there are a few more stages planned. I want to add ARB air lockers at both ends, a winch bumper and Warn winch, and rock rails to protect the rocker panels.

It has a locking differential
The G80 is a locker
Not a very GOOD one, but still a locker.

I'm not sure how many options there is for the stock rear diff... But I know there's a fair amount for the TBSS diff... I think on these ones the pumpkin can be changed out without changing axle tubes, but I'm not 100% sure...

Nice looking rig!

The solid front axle GMT355 that's running around is running like 33 - 35" tires, too, if I remember right... I've only seen it a few times... I don't think he lives in city limits

he/she lives in westpoint.
