Put on a Bestop tri-fold tonneau cover. Got it for $150 from a guy locally. I like how it’s pretty low profile, not bulky like others I’ve seen. And it also fits my wife’s 2016 Toyota Tundra. Very easy and quick to install and removes just as easy and quickly.
Also got the Carven 5” exhaust tips ordered. Hoping they will fill in the gap from the 1.5” body lift. But I do have a flow master exhaust, maybe with the Carven tips I’ll get a little better sound
Bought a stage one chip by GTE for about $100 buck and also got the Vararam intake from a guy locally for $200. I installed the intake, the chip, along with the headers all in the same day and man what a difference in power and throttle response and also my Mpg went up from 8.5mpg to 11.5 mpg...
Decided to go with some shorty headers I bought on EBay for about $200 ( BFC headers) had them on for about a week now. So far so good kind of a pain in the ass to install after one header bolt broke off into the head. Was able to drill it out and re tap the treaters. Watched a video on YouTube...
These where just spacers that you slide between the frame and the body and it came with longer bolts. But no steering adjustments were needed nor alignment. Took about half a day with a friends help to install the body lift
Was able to get my Mevotech UCA’s on last night and also upgraded to the 5100 series Bilstein shocks. Had the maxtrac shocks on first, didn’t like them then ran the rough country and they sent me the wrong ones they are for 2500 or 3500 rams. So the Bilstein 5100 is where it’s at in my book...
Tires are pretty heavy but it does ride quite the same. But it did take a big loss in MPG. I was getting about 14 mpg stock height and stock tires. But now I’m getting 9 mpg 7.5” lift & 37” tires.
Upgraded to The Mevotech UCA’s. I have no problem with stock UCA’s but have heard good things about these and definitely an affordable price. Gave them a good primer coat and a glossy black paint.
