The next item of business was to visit Jack at Streetsweeper Kutoms in Conway, AR. Jack then installed the new GoodMark steel cowl induction hood, Escalade door handles, shaved the stake pockets, shaved the taillight assemblies and installed a Sir Michaels rollpan with slot taillights.

To cover any precious cargo Brooks might haul a Snug-Top fiberglass cover was installed onto the bed. Once Jack had the body looking righteous he then applied several coats of Standox White hue to the entire truck. Once the paint was dry a T-Rex billet grill insert was installed to complete the Denali conversion. The next major order of business was to visit Jessie Dickerson at AirRide by Jessie so the frame could be planted firmly on the ground. Jessie started by ditching the factory spindles in favor of BellTech 2" drop spindles. While the front end was torn down Jessie installed a pair of Firestone 2600 air bags were the coil springs once resided. For the rear Jessie custom built a 4-link cantilever set up with another pair of Firestone 2600's on the lower bars for more lift. Jessie then ran 5/8" stainless steel tubing from each bag and installed (8) Parker Gold 5/8" electric valves for complete control of each corner. Two Viar 450 compressors were plumbed thru two 5-gallon holding tanks for air on demand. A clean setup of Dakota Digital gauges were installed in the cockpit area to monitor each bags pressure at all times. Now that the Denali had the ability to get itself off the tarmac it was now time for some new rolling stock.
