Jeromy’s 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Duramax/Allison LT 4×4
Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008This truck is a 2005 Chevy Silverado, which Jeromy first bought to pull his fifth wheel. Today, he uses it as a daily 
driver/construction and definitely for PLAY. In March of 2007, Jeromy’s brother, who also happens to be his best friend passed away. A few weeks later, knowing how much his brother loved the Silverado as much as he did, Jeromy decided to rebuild his truck in his brother’s memory after losing the main bearings in the engine at around the same time. Jeromy’s brother was carried to his final resting place in the bed of Jeromy’s Duramax because according to him, that’s what his brother would have wanted. Jeromy spent a year and a half saving up to pay for rebuilding the engine using aftermarket parts. 1600 miles later, he had to fix it the second time around, but now it’s back on the road and as good as new.
He’s got a BMS/Burkhard built engine complete with Howard’s rods, ARP Head Studs, a DPR-HV Oil Pump, a bunch of MPI Twin Turbos, a Suncoast Level 3 Tranny, a 4” straight pipe exhaust, Bobo EFI Live Tuning, Kennedy Diesel Duramax Dual Lift pumps and pickup and SD tie rod sleeves. On the utside, his 2005 Chevy Silverado has been debadged, has Escalade handles, Rhino linings, Westin Nerf Bars and Helo Maxx 8 rims on BF Goodrich All Terrains. While on the inside, it’s got Autometer C2 pyro/boost/oil pressure gauges. Jeromy does all the work needed on his truck except for those involving the engine. Right now, he installed custom license plates in memory of his brother and all that’s left for him to do is add badges made in his brother’smemory and his name painted on his backglass using the ghost paint scheme.
