besthaticouldo's 2013 Ram 5.7 SLT Build - Toothless

besthaticouldo · Oct 14, 2015

I just recently bought this truck used after my XJ went out on me. I'm no stranger to modded cars. I've had everything from Jeeps to Subarus to Volvos and all have been modded in one way or another.

This is my 2013 5.7 4x4, I purchased it with 22k miles about 3 weeks ago.

Mod List

Performance
DiabloSport InTune

Interior
Cabin Air Filter Mod

Exterior
TriFold Tonneau Cover
Diode Dynamics Cargo LED Lights
Diode Dynamics Reverse LED Lights
Diode Dynamics License Plate LED Lights
TYC Sport Headlights
Retroshop Headlight Harness
Diode Dynamics
CravenSpeed Stubby Antenna (thing sucks and will be going away)

Suspension/Tires
285/70/17 Hercules Terra Trac AT II
Bilstein 5100 Front Shocks (2.1) - Installed Thursday

My daughters named it Toothless after the black dragon from How to Train your Dragon. Here are some pics of it fresh off the lot

Here are some pics from yesterday when I got the tires installed.

285/70/17 for $155 a tire, made in the USA. They are awesome in weather as well.

Congrats on the new purchase. Good ole St.Louis huh? What part? I'm originally from Florissant. Love seeing pictures of trucks from back home!

Thanks!

Berkely area gotten any better? My parents moved to Lake Saint Louis and I moved to OK haha. Welcome to the site and enjoy the truck!

Yea, it's not that bad. I mean it's not Creve Coeur or Ladue, but it's not an awful area. I work in a lockdown facility though, we have armed guards and stuff haha.
