For sure. Is there a mpg change with a wider stance you think? Or is that only because of the heavier tires and wheels?

Heavier tires.

Heavier tires and wheels account for mpg lose. The farther the tires the more wearnon the suspension parts.

Yea I'd say tires for sure.

Got confirmation on the shipping of my Vertical LED Pod fog brackets from Sidetracked Offroad. Apparently I bought the last set of brackets for the vertical fogs. Super excited to get all that bolted up. All my pods and wiring harness parts should be in from the bay by end of next week.

What brand did you go with? Been thinking about one of these for mine, my knees hate me every time I jump up into the truck bed. The things I took for granted when I was younger.

Bestop trek step. Bought it off a member.

Trucks front end appearance will be getting a change in the next week. I've got LED pods, a new grill and new headlights all heading my way. Supposed to all be in my next Monday.

Went with an e-autogrills chrome shell and black mesh grill off eBay. Had one of the e-auto grills on my old truck and it looked as nice as the expensive T-Rex grills.

adubree86 · Mar 13, 2017

My goal is to balance the front end out a bit. Chrome shell with black mesh and black quad headlights. I've always thought the black ram bighorns were a little chrome heavy on the front end but I don't want to go full out brodozer black. Decided to keep the chrome bumpers and handles with a chrome pop from the grill to hopefully balance out the little bit of polish on my wheels. I hope it looks as good as it does in my head.

I think the chrome shell with black mesh will look sweet.

adubree86 · Mar 15, 2017

I loved how huge it looked without steps but damn was it hard to get into. It's seriously got me considering a 1.5" body lift. If only I could do the body lift and keep my tow hooks.

Definitely looking mean man. Are you happy you went with a 6" Zone instead of 4"? I can't decide. I feel like going 4" with Bilstein's up front will be somewhere in between. How do you feel about it considering you got the 6"?

Zero regrets. I got the 6" and bilsteins up front. Wish it was a touch taller. I personally wouldn't pay that much for just 4".

Surprised I have never seen this truck. I live in Lenexa.
