I haven't yet man...think I'm gonna do that saturday

I wouldn't do a lift at all. I'd do the go fast goodies. A level/ and 35s or if you already he 35s just get a cool set of wheels and level. Idk I'm a fan of lifted trucks obviously but with a cummins I would like a moderate/mild lift and be able to keep up with mustangs around town.

If you get into more go fast parts it could get really expensive
Qc long beds don't look lifted with just a level and 35s, just proportional lol

Lol I can keep up with some mustangs already... good thoughts tho.

You have a point... yea if I get all these go fast goodies, what am I gonna break? And how much is that gonna cost! lol good point sir

 

[Oefootball_70]

So do a four inch 37s and a couple more go fast goodies.

 

[schroederMP]

Well come March my budget is going to be roughly $4k... that will get lift, wheels and tires. That'll leave me roughly $1k for go fast goodies... that might get me an intake horn and head studs...

 

[Oefootball_70]

Lol, sounds like a plan. Already a great looking truck!

 

[schroederMP]

Thanks man!

Did you do any lift pump/cp3 mods yet? I guess I'm a little gun shy after we lost 9 injectors last winter between two trucks
My vote is RC 5"
With the right shopping you can do a hell of alot with 4 grand
Well then again your running out of the inexpensive mods lol

 

[schroederMP]

Yea I'll be ordering a Airdog 150 lift pump soon. My CP3 is good for my stock injectors and turbo. So that will stay the same untill I get a new turbo and injectors. Thats if my stock injectors dont fail (knock on wood)

And your right... I've pretty much run out of the inexpensive mods. Kinda sucks lol

 

[schroederMP]

Some more paiting almost done...just gotta add a little color to it

 

[Stangshcky12]

Are you going to try to paint the raised part black our sticking with white? It should really brighten things up!

 

[schroederMP]

Raised part is going to be black... gonna add some red to it also. Just for fun

 

[schroederMP]

Its clearcoated right now...gonna give it a few days before I put it back on the truck. Dont want the heat of the engine heating up the clear coat and messing it up.

 

[Oefootball_70]

Looks fancy

 

[S2kiHemi]
