Haha yes sorry, I meant tires. Your truck looks pretty big in the pics, I couldn't tell if they were 35s or 37s

I really wish I could fit 38's without going to an 8 inch lift. When I do the bilstein's I might try and adjust them up about an inch and see if I could clear the 38's.

Transmission seems much smoother after changing the filters an fluid. Plus the pan looks **** and holds 2.5 more quarts! With the partial drain and new pan, she took 10 quarts.

Thanks! Well, I sold my 2011 truck and had some money left over, so that's what payed for these mods. Some kicker speakers for my birthday, and that'll be it for the mods for a while.

Gonna give the engine bay and under carriage a nice cleaning this week. Should make her pop alot more!

Trup, finally found your build thread.
Title certainly does not indicate this is your new truck

Glad I found it. Man, truck is Beast!

Yeah I'm kind of a half brain like that lol. I thought I linked the thread after you posted that, but maybe I forgot.

Lifted trucks are definately alot more fun than any other truck I've owned!

I only know lifted trucks. Never had a lowered one. Only lowered cars. Im guessing its the same thing, just 3 feet higher.

But man, I love your truck
Im a HUGE white fan.
Wish my wife didnt talk me out of white and into a black :boxed:

Whats next on this bad boy?

Sorry just came from the emergency room. Was at the park when Gavin decided to hit his head on the concrete. 3 stitches!

Well, I'm getting some speakers for my birthday and that'll be it until November-ish.

Then I'd like to re-do some of the suspension with some progressive rate stuff, and add an extra inch of lift for 37's. While I'm at it, I'm also going to get the adjustable billstein's and see if I could fit 38's with about a 6.5-7 inch lift. If not, I'll just be happy with 6 inches and 37's.

My friend king has the exact same truck with 6 inches and 37's and no rubbing, so that leads me to believe I might be ok. But we'll see.


Ooh, and AMP steps and lights and I'm happy for a while!

I'd like to dig more into the motor, but I'll wait a while as it's kind of an entire package together thing.

Head studs, higher HP injector tips, higher rate fuel pump, and compound turbo's are spendy! And all together it's somewhere near 4-5 grand. Not to mention a new tranny. Maybe one day, but not for a while.
