What did you do to your Gen3 today?

[Drunken Hamster]

Low is low, its for whatever you want it to be, bags if done right are for everything, your truck is whatever you build it to be...


Ok well your 750hp motor is still a dream, and you are proving you dont know enough about this and need to educate yourself more, your askijg if a tire size can hook up, its not the size of a tire, its the compound of the rubber, if you fulfill your dream of 700+ hp and really wana race you will not be running a big rim, you will have a 17" race rim with drag radials on it, you keep going in circles, if your going to race the truck you wont be rotating tires, you wont have the same setup front and rear, but none of that is a concern untill you are in the ballpark of fulfilling your dream, you dont have the truck yet, and untill you get to owning the truck and are in your build you are wasting your breath, by the time you get to building your dream alot can change, and as far as you wanting to build a 4th gen ram now, you will have to take that to the 4th gen section, you need to focus on the truck you have now, if you want to build i lt and have questions on it we can help you but arguing with people who know about this stuff and debating with us when you have no experience wih lowered vehicles and dont ven have the vehicle you are arguing anout is doing nothing but wasting everyone's time

Okay, it's not just a damn drag truck and I'm not gonna have it in 17's looking like a ******* skateboard. I've said it a dozen times, I want a street driven pro touring truck that CAN do strip duty or highway rolls.

OBVIOUSLY the tires would be swapped for something suitable on the strip but the daily/track tire has to be the same size all around and a minimu size to not look like -as I stated- a ******* skateboard.

And yes, compound is the most important factor. But two r888's in the same overall dimension, one for a 20" and another for an 18", well, that 18 is more likely to hook and grip better due to softness, and sidewall flex, from what I've researched. It'll also be more heat stable due to the increased surface area and mass.

But another reason I'm concerned about tire sizing is that THERE AREN'T ANY PERFORMANCE COMPOUNDS IN GOOD SIZES FOR TRUCKS! At least not full sized trucks. And all the mid sized trucks aren't that good looking and don't come with good V8's like a coyote, LS, or Hemi.

But yeah, sure. Everything about what I'm asking, saying, and trying to learn about is a waste of time, including myself. Guess there's no point preparing or figuring things out ahead of time! :/

And I'm not building this damn truck, I don't want a quad cab, it can't turn and it's a pain to park. I'm getting what I really want. A 4G SCRB. Not even gonna screw around with building a 3g for this.

now a "I want a street driven pro touring truck" someone has been watching street outlaws a little too much and wants one of their "street cars" dont we LOL

and ill never say learning is not a good thing, but you argue about things you obviously dont know anything about, if you want to learn then learn, absorb the info given to you, dont reject it and argue other random stuff you find online when the guys who do this stuff daily are spoon feeding it to you.

and im sorry if you cant turn a quad cab ram nor park it then you need to brush up on your driving skills because i have done some crazy **** in a quad cab LWB truck and never had an issue parking it.

once again, if you are going to a 4th gen of a dream truck, go over to their section and argue with the 4th gen veterans like you have done here and they will tell you the same thing

Is people like you and portin and **** like that that has someone like me with no emotional support stuck in the same circles and cycles and not getting anywhere. Remove hope and **** on people for just having thoughts and ideas or wanting to know or explore possibilities. That's real nice, buddy. I wish I had an appropriate meme, but I finally got to break my viscous cycle recently and got past my blocks long enough to delete some of the crap on my phone I didn't need. Guess ya'll and this app are going on the list. I don't need more assholes ******** on me and telling me to **** off and that I'm wasting everybody's time. The whole point of these communities is to spread information so people can accomplish goals. But I guess none of you got the memo.

Dude, you gotta take a step back and look at the situation. I think these guys (especially Demon-Hemi) have been VERY VERY helpful with you over the past few weeks. He’s tried his absolute BEST to answer every single question you’ve come up with. But you gotta realize we see guys come in here all the time with lots of dreams and lots of questions and then nothing ever comes of it. You need alittle dose of reality. What you want to build is EXTREMELY expensive. We are talking $30,000-$50,000 taking into account your new truck and then the countless mods you have planned. You’ve said it yourself, you don’t have anywhere near the money for it, so you are more then likely years away from it. If you keep plugging away and making smart decisions about buying mods that transfer over, I think you will do fine. But come on man, give these guys a break. They’ve really tried to help you out, but you have been fairly rude to them and flown off the handle multiple times. After awhile, you are gonna lose your credibility and no one will be interested in helping. So grow some thicker skin, take a joke every once in awhile, and thank people for taking time to answer your questions. If you can’t do that, well...we tried.

Those aren't 17's on DR's that's a full on fikken drag tire on a 15! Dear lord, do you know even know what a pro touring vehicle is? IDGAF about street faglaws, I don't want a straight line vehicle! My driving skills are fine, but it's still too long. Parking is hard in the 3-5 tight ass, skinny spaced parking lots I have the misfourtune of having to park in. Otherwise, if I skim the opposing side and turn at just the right time, I can easily pull it in straight and even first time. If it's off or too tight and I'm about to hit, I have to back up and pull in, then back out straight and 'wiggle' to align properly. Tight lots with skinny spots cause a problem for the LWB when trying to back out in 1 maneuver no matter how skilled you are. I just don't wanna hit ****, and have no family to haul around, so I want a singlecab, and longbeds look weird and are for work, so I want a short bed.

to start nobody is bullying you, yes the point of these communities are here to help people, but you take all the info that competent truck builders are giving you and you ignore it and argue with us about random **** you found online somewhere else, and then keep bringing it up in different ways almost to try and prove us all wrong, tell me would you want to help someone who is always arguing with every fact you tell them, i mean i did get rid of my ex wife for that very reason LMAO

if rim size is the only thing you have taken from tonight then you are beyond help, nobody said you needed a long bed nor told you to build one so obviously you dont even read the help we are trying to give

 

[ramportin1]

For the record I was about the only person that came to your aid on your detailing thread and answered a TON of questions with the best of my knowledge... and jersey never came at you, all he's ever done is post a funny picture and that's it, definitely nothing like telling you to uhhh you know kill yourself like you did to him.

Fine. It's about that time that I need to shutup and forget about it anyway.

Whenever I log myself down with my ideas too much, and can't commit action to them, I get ornery, anyway. I'm still days away from bedliner so I can install the tonneau. BEDLINER! ON THE 3G QC I DON'T WANT!! Nevermind the detail, fender replacement, little things to increase value, and the shackle and deezee assist which will be like the only other things beside tint that I spend money on to mod.

But like I said. Time to shut up and forget about it. I think I'll take your advice.

Helpful tip, back your truck in.... don't pull in, it's much easier in tight areas

Yes. Thank you. I will refer to that thread and it will be very helpful when I get around to finally doing it. Meanwhile, update, I got all of the necessary components now. My pad cleaner [the last part] came in a few days ago.

Yeah, but posting a 'funny picture' and explaining it with this?

Pretty sure that's at least antagonizing.

Thank you. I've tried this before, and aside from fear of hitting a car from the 'wide side' it does work better. I'll try it more in the future.

Bro I’m the same way. I start getting ideas in my head and go down 15 rabbit trails on things to do to my truck, get started on all of them at once, get stressed out, make mistakes, get more stressed out over the mistakes, it’s a never ending cycle. I still haven’t finished my engine build and I’m already worried about how to handle the tranny swap months away. Ya just gotta calm down and take one thing at a time. Work with what you have on hand and it will help you clear your head. And I agree with Dana, he did give you a mountain of advice on your detailing project.

I did[take away far more than just rim size], but it's all just stressing me out. What I need isn't made. So I'm worried about it looking right, being useful, being versatile, and performing well all at the same time. I'm sorry.

And no, that truck doesn't look like a skateboard, those tall slicks are mean as ****, and the front skinnies serve a strip-exclusive purpose, and, obviously, with the rears, would all be put on at the strip prior to some serious runs.

I more wanted a truck for handling, though, as I tried to express. And to accomplish that, and since I won't use it exclusively for work, and don't have family to haul, I don't need anything bigger than an extended cab regular bed[~133" wheelbase max] but preferrably, a single cab regular bed[~125" wheelbase or less], for even tighter handling.

NVM, I'm at it again. Look, I'm sorry. I got out of hand. And you're also right about moving to the 4g thread for my build since I'm going 4g. And doing it WHEN I get said 4g, and AS I become able to do things to it.

For now, I'll try to calm down and stick only to my current truck.

Speaking of which, I got some lucas oil fuel injector cleaner that goes in with the fuel. Gonna put it in on the next fill up, unless you guys think I should mix it in with a lower amount of fuel in the tank??

its stresses like these that slow us down, why do you think i dont have my new wheels on my blue truck, im so terrified that they wont fit when i go to put em on that they are still sitting in their boxes and i haven't even gotten tires for them lol

you just have to pick a direction and go with it but thats not always easy to do, in my case i have to pick one of the trucks that iwant to spend money on at that moment, so i pick one and usually wind up spending money on a different one and getting mad lol

Now I have to make myself not go buy stress eat food at effin 7/11 next door. Literally less than 100yds walk to waste MORE money today on MORE unhealthy **** that won't even help my mood, really.
