    I'm stuck between two tires! Help

    As mentioned, the Nitto Terra Grapplers are an awesome choice as well. Had about 10k on them when I traded in the truck, and with routine rotation, they showed little to no wear. Did awesome for me in the rain, snow, mud, and other general offroad situations. I was running 295/70/17s. Out of...

    Carnage at Shoe Creek

    You were right in my neck of the woods Frog! Shoe Creek is a pretty awesome spot for wheeling and camping. We use to try and go at least once a year, but I never got to take the Ram. We would do half the trail at night, camp out and party, then finish it up the next day. Great times!

    plastic dip question

    Thanks for those pics Musclemckeester..... for some reason the pic of it peeling right off has set me a little more at ease about the plasti dip. I really wanna blackout my stocker wheels on the mustang. They aren't worth PCing, and I think I would dig the flat black anyways against the gloss...

    Nitrous anyone?

    Daves on the spot....... as Im sure Ryan and other track-regulars know, DA and elevations are as important as hp and weight. There could literally be a .5-1sec difference in times for a car running in the mountains vs. @ sea level. Also, like he said, weather is a HUGE factor. I BET his...

    Nitrous anyone?

    Yup, 100lbs= .1 off the slip, roughly. Id love to see some times with some lightweight wheels on that thing! 20lbs off each wheel, taking that unsprung weight off, would be good for at least another .2 or so :D

    help-flooded my truck

    Im speaking from personal experience..... its locked bro. I locked up my old furd a couple years ago in a bigass mud/water hole. Needless to say a wave of water OVER the cab is definately no good, lol. This ^ is why I havent wheeled my Ram hardly, lol. Edit: What do ya'll mean by...

    Leveling a 06 1500 Sport 4x4 Correctly

    I haven't had any issues with any parts binding or anything.... with my 2" HBS level that is. I would suggest a 2.5" to be closer to level (hindsight is def 20/20). I do have bottom-out issues, but over speedbumps and stuff, nothing major. If you read around, you'll hear of the "death...

    Thoughts?

    I would personally say do the wheels first... if you were going with 22's now. If not, go ahead and drop it, the factory ones look pretty good too!

    4.7L gas mileage

    Oh no brother, it is what it is. I never got more than 12-12.5 around town with the stock size tires (245/65 I think?). I put the tires on, then did all the maintaince (tb, plugs, etc) so I saw a drop, but not so dramatic. Its steadily gotten worse, but I contributed that soley to the winter...

    Feelins....? WTF are they? :D No worries OP, you might get some opinions around these parts that don't match up to yours, but you will get honest, correct advice/help from these guys! Welcome to the forum, might as well throw the dog a bone and post up some pics of this plaything!

    4.7L gas mileage

    Well, I am basing my numbers off of my uncorrected odometer... Meaning, I haven't had the computer corrected for the change in size. So, this of course is making my calcs off, but still..... Right now I get less than 250miles per tank..... more like 225-240. Say that the odo is off enough to...

    4.7L gas mileage

    I havent read beyond this guys post, but this is EXACTLY what I have been saying... the 4-7 is just too small to couple with bigger tires and no re-gear. I get about 9.5-10. Essentially, I went from a 3.55 ratio to almost a 2.73 with the tire size change. No wonder it feels like a dog! I...

    Full setup ordered Monday.. now I have to wait

    ^ not too bad having a warranty. I still like to do things myself, even though I don't know how to do ANYthing! With a project that big, I can't really say I blame ya. Edit: AF has the words of a wiseman ;)
