Got an 04 Envoy SLT 4x4 in December.
It's in need of a lift and better suspension.

Looks good but ditch the running boards
they've always worked for me.

Once you offroad some more, I would imagine they will self clearance and you may be more inclined to remove them and maybe look into sliders 
they've always worked for me.

Welcome aboard. Sliders are like running boards but solid, usually tube steel. Google "rock sliders"...

You know, I realized you're not far from the Roadie, one of the other founders. You might want to get in contact with him. A drive down to Borrego with him would be well worth your time, and it would certainly be good to get him out again.

Yeah, I think he's a good 4 hours away.
Might have to set something up with him in the future

I'd drive 4 hours for borrego. I'd drive 4.5 hours for Borrego and the Roadie combined.

well worth the drive to have "Ridin' with Roadie" checked off your bucket list
