  1. I own a real 2000 Chevy Silverado pick up that I have been looking for a model of for a while, wanting to build an exact replica. I finally found Revell's '99 Chevy Silverado, but....this model is one of those 'California" style 'beach' trucks and I had to do a few mods to make it look the same (sanding here, trimming there, ect). The body mods were easy, my problem is, it has a seriously lowered suspension system, and I can't figure out a way to give it a lift job to the stock height, except for tires, but it isn't enough. I am using a set of 1/25 scale 17" tires I picked up at a local hobby shop (my real ride has 17" Goodyears on it). I had to modify (enlarge) the front wheel wells a little to get the correct looking result, but it rally doesn't lift the frame/body. Any ideas on how I can lift the actual suspension componants so it will look more of a stock height?
