$400 bucks to burn

reddevil78 · Mar 21, 2017

Hey guys wondering what I should do next made some 400 bucks in a march madness bet and I want to see if y'all have any suggestions what I should do next. I know it's not a lot to work with but for now I'm looking at small mods until I get tires again I want the new ridge grapplers and some black rims. For now I'll list my mods so y'all can throw more suggestions at me.

1. 4" zone lift
2. Bils on the front end.
3. 35x12.50x20 on stock rims toyo m/ts
4. Flowmaster 50hd muffler welded in
5. Diablo tune with hemifever tune
6. Tri fold hard tonneau cover.
7. 180 tstat
8. K&N cold air intake
9. Zone nitrogen shocks in the rear end and upgraded springs.

What I'm really leaning into right now is changing my exhaust to caraven progressive with some 5" tips but someone convince me or talk me out of it into something else! Thanks guys for the time answering and looking in advanced.

Couldn't go wrong with the carven. But I would probably get an intake since you already have a muffler. And maybe switch to the carven for your next mod

5" tips will make a significant difference in the tone of your exhaust. I think it made more of a difference than the aftermarket muffler itself. There is a thread that talks about ideas on mod's that are under $100. I think there is page after page of ideas. You might see if you can find that thread. By the way, your truck is really good looking.

Thank you, and will do I'm itching for new things to do. I just saw someone buy some paint matched flares for $345 even that caught my eye!

I put the OEM flares on my 16 sports and really like the way they turned out. I also used the 2500 flares and had them painted locally by my painter.

PS Where in Tx are you from?

Deep South Texas like 45 mins from South padre. Mercedes TX where the Stock show is at. Ring a bell?

Just want to say how much I like the look of your truck!

Thanks solid! I like the lifted look but a nice modest look and tone to things not over killed!

5" tips and then a front and rear Husky X-Act liners set wouldn't be a bad combo.

Hellwig sway is under $200

Maybe some tow hooks.

I would buy vinyl, and wrap the grill yourself with it. You can also dip your wheels to match it; imo black would look great with the color your truck is.

Lois like it's the 5" tips right now and my truck came with the weather tech looking mats ones with the ram symbols on it.

That sounds like a good idea but as soon as these toyo's run out I'm swapping for a black set up so that's in the near future.

Painted 2500 flares , then when you get new wheels you can get ones with a little more offset

Any leftover money should go to mud flaps

MBRP 5" rolled tips 18" long. It will really change the sound of that 50 series. That's what I'm running and love it. I almost swapped to the Carven but did the tips first and def glad I did. Saved me the wasted money on another muffler [emoji12]

Better question is how did you make 400 bucks in a March Madness bet when the first round just got over? Someone bet against Duke or NC????

It was a drunk stupid bet my brother in law is a OSU alumni. Kinda wanted to **** him off blurted a random number saying Michigan would win didn't really think so but they pulled it off by a damn point, and boom 400 bucs. That was a hell of a game if I ever seen one in the past year.

I like your thinking sport right now it's between the tips or the fender flares. The tips are a big factor because when I got my flow master welded in the guy that put it on for me didn't align my tips back there leveled by there slightly lower than they should. I'm super OCD about it.
