    How big do I need to go??

    Likely just a couple inch front level, but offset will matter as you may run into issues with the control arms rubbing.

    Rpms drop when coming to a stop

    Have you looked into anything? Could be a nasty throttle body/IAC stuff. Check that out!

    What do I need to buy

    That makes life a LOT easier. You'd only need a set of springs and shocks for the front (You may have to remove brackets that lowered the sway bar or get short end links again), and simply removing lift blocks in the rear!

    What do I need to buy

    Sorry no one hit this thread yet! Steering parts are easy to find in good quality. As per your first question the 2003 (I'm assuming you've got a 1500 here) uses torsion bars, so likely different keys and different shocks to lower as well as removing anything that was used to lower the front...

    Straight pipe

    chrisp2493 is right, worst thing is you just change it again. If you wanna get a feel for how it sounds with a straight pipe cut it off and drive it around the block, if you love it fine, if you hate it, slap a muffler on that bad boy.

    New (to me) truck, a few questions!

    Just like devans said, dually = stability. The truck weighs more, so that extra weight factors into overall numbers. What are you planning on towing with it?

    Code lookup

    Turn the truck off, key in the ignition and just turn it off to on three times (not engaging the starter) and then leave it on. Codes will display on the dash where the odometer usually displays.

    What did you do to your Gen3 today?

    Oh I totally agree! It's ridiculous. Filed an insurance claim ($700 estimate for a new grill installed) and listed them as the responsible party so PD and insurance have to go after them.

    03 2500 5.7 Averaging 9-10mpg

    That does feel a bit low though... at least compared to mine. My 5.7 2500 is a quad cab long bed and even dragging that fat ass around I still get 12-13 in town and I drive it like I stole it 80% of the time.

    I can get behind this!

    Belltech Rear Sway Bar Install

    Exactly. Feel free to install everything loose with the truck lifted, but align it with it on the ground, and tighten all mounts/bushings with it on the ground.

    What did you do to your Gen3 today?

    Walked out and watched someone back their bike rack into it, wrinkling up the chrome on the main upright of the grill pretty badly, then take off. Got their plate, but PD said there's little to no case since it's just the chrome damaged and there wasn't any visible damage to the other guys rack...

    Belltech Rear Sway Bar Install

    You should be tightening everything with the trucks weight on the wheels. Ramps would make it nice and easy.

    What did you do to your Gen3 today?

    It worked! Sub $60 bars

    What did you do to your Gen3 today?

    Working on some home brewed budget cross bars for the bed today. Will update if it works... If not I'll pretend like it never happened.
