    How long do manifold bolts last before breaking?

    I'm sure every truck will be different. I just had to replace one last weekend and I've got just shy of 105,000 on my '09.

    Do you happen to remember what the issues were? Just fitment issues that there is nothing you can do to fix it, or was it something that can be made to fir with a little work? Also, the issue isn't something that would be made ok since I have a body lift right? Realistically what would I see...

    I recently had to replace a broken exhaust manifold stud that snapped off in the head as many of us have had to do. When I was in there I had to removed the entire manifold anyway and thought I should just go ahead and upgrade to some headers, so I started looking. My thought is that If I have...

    Pics of Gap Guards

    As its been said before the rear gap guards are a waste as there isn't anything that needs to be covered and everything looks good. Without them in the front there is a gap that you can see the engine through. With the gap guards in place it gives a much cleaner look and you don't even know that...

    After market bumper with body lift?

    I think some of the aftermarket bumpers/grill guards etc also mount to the tow hook locations that hang off the frame for extra support. If that is the case then custom brackets would be needed with a 3" body lift. I've looked into this before as well.

    09 with new wheels and 35s

    The clearance between control arm and tire is about the same as with the stock setup, just sticks outside the fender a little more.... clearance with the fender on the front is about perfect, shouldnt run into any problems there... and a couple more just because...

    9 inch wide wheel with 0 offset and 12.50 tires???

    Very nice truck man. I like the smaller wheel bigger tire look, it looks meaner to me. Are those the Method 301? I thought about them in the machined finish, but decided I wanted chrome so I'm going with the XD cranks. They seem to be the least gaudy 17" chrome wheels i could find for our...

    Installed Bushwacker smooth fender flares (color matched)

    Your truck looks amazing! I also have a 3 inch body lift, could you take any pictures from the front to see how much of the front suspension, etc is seen. Also, could you take any pics of the custom fab work needed for the bumper with the body lift? Thanks, and again, very nice truck.

    Anyone running a Ranch Hand bumper/guard on your 1500?

    Do you think you could get some pictures of the mounting brackets? I assume it bolts on where the tow hooks would mount? I have a body lift and I'm wondering what type of custom brackets I would have to make.

    9 inch wide wheel with 0 offset and 12.50 tires???

    Haha yeah I have heard nothing but good reviews about those tires. I like them, I like the look of the trial grapplers a little better and I do go muddin every now and then and wanted something a little more aggressive.

    9 inch wide wheel with 0 offset and 12.50 tires???

    It shouldnt be a problem, Ive got 2.5 level and 3" body lift. How close are the inside of the tire to the upper control arms? The AT2 are listed as 12.5 wide on a 10" wide rim, the nittos I'm looking at are listed as 13.2 wide on a 10 inch rim. Since I am going with a 9" rim instead of 10"...

    9 inch wide wheel with 0 offset and 12.50 tires???

    You would think so, but no that would make too much sense haha.... KMC - Wheels the 9" part of a wheel measurement is to the inside of the lip where the bead of the tire sits, the backspacing is measured mating surface to the outside lip.
