Shop Update | 8.22.25

DIY Alignment, Reverse Brake Bleeder, Wilwood D52 Brakes, Airlift ALP4, GM Truck Fair, and New Products! 

Here are a few of the things I've been working on this week. If you need help with a build or have questions, call/text 615-578-4540 or email thesimplec10@gmail.com.

Last week was wild! Days before the GM Truck Fair in Greeneville, TN, I decided to upgrade to the Wilwood D52 Factory Style Calipers. This job spiraled into buying new rotors because the old ones has surface rust and a stripped stud. I did get the opportunity to use one of the reverse brake bleeders I've seen online. I also bought a couple self alignment tools from amazon and aligned Lucky myself. Oh, by the way, I recorded the whole thing so be sure to watch the video below! It's a good one for the DIY guys. 

GM Truck Fair 2025 | Greeneville, TN

This was my first year attending the GM Truck and I had a blast. I wasn't setup as a vendor, I just came to hang out and be a part of the community and that's exactly what I needed. Greeneville, TN is a beautiful are surrounded by greenery and a small town vibe! The after party at the downtown Greeneville square was my favorite part.

Personalized Build Plans

Something I offer that you may not be familiar with is a Personalized Build Plan. This is a service I offer where we discuss your build and create a plan together. It happens in three simple steps: 1. Discuss your vision. 2. Create a parts list and build plan. 3. Email the quote with resources and linked DIY videos. It's that easy. This is one of my favorite things to do with people. I get an opportunity to get to know you, the history of your truck, and create a specific plan for your build. 

Here's another Personalized Build Plan Story. Austin reached out about his '66 Suburban.

Austin sent this message, "I feel like the more research I do the more lost I get lol....So I'm building a 66 suburban. I don't want to alter the rear floor because I plan on using the factory seats to haul the family. I want to do a c notch and bag it. Where do I start 😆"

This is exactly why I love to help people with their builds. We get to figure this out together! I gave Austin a call later that day and we discussed different options for his build and his overall vision and then we created a detailed plan that included the Simple.C10 Air Ride Kit, Tubular Control Arms, C-Notch, Adjustable Panhard Bar, X-10 Big Brake Kit, and more! He has been putting in work since March and this thing looks awesome. Great job, Austin!
