Installed the S&B CAI this past week. I love the sound, the shifting is better, and I was averaging 18 mpg on the interstate this weekend versus 16.5.


Do you have a link for this?

I ordered my CAI, contacted Mufflex about their muffler kit and painted my antenna black. It may not be much but I'm TDY (military term, stuck in Wichita Falls TX for school) and I'm doing what I can in a parking lot without my tools.
I'm stuck in Wichita Falls as well, not because of the military just because I can't convince my wife to move.

I ordered the Craven Speed stubby antenna about 3 days ago and it already got here yesterday and is installed. Easy to install, quick and looks so much better than the stock antenna. Now I don't know what to do with the origional.

I'll get a pic up in a bit, put a set of Truck Gear Direct side steps on yesterday. I went with them because they were a decent price, $156 with shipping and didnt require any drilling. Really easy to install once I looked up a YouTube video that showed still pictures, their "instructions" suck. The quality is good, heavy steel brackets, pretty stable, I like 'em, they look good.

I'll get some up this afternoon, at work right now. I orderd the polished ones, they look good with the Flame Red. They are nice because its a no drill installiation, so you dont mutilate the body pinch weld. All you need as an 11/16 and 1/2 wrench.

Make sure you look up the video they have on YouTube, the instructions they ship with it suck, literally hand writen with a crappy sketching, but the video has some still images that showed better where to mount the brackets.

EDIT: I should add, their wearhouse is in Huston TX so if your local they will let you just pick them up and save the shipping.

I installed my Volant CAI. I know it's not the most desired CAI but it was $153 shipped. My catback will be here tomorrow so I'll have that to do also.

Welded the pass-side post-muffler exhaust back on, took an angle grinder to the melted pass side parking brake cable, ordered a new one. Lesson learnt.

Took the girlfriend on a road trip to the mountains for a week and came back and helped her with her horse. Put about 1,000 miles on it. Edging up toward 4k already.

I prefer these over nerf bars personally, everybody and their mother does those. Next thing I need to do is get a bed liner, I want to do a LineX but man its pricey, not too sure I can swing that. Deffinatly dont want to do a plastic drop in, maybe I can work out a payment plan or something! LOL

Sure! Pay yourself $100 a week till you can afford a Line-X!
They aren't that bad at ~$450 average, and in my mind, they are totally worth it. It's on my ever growing list.

Ohh dont get me wrong, its worth the money, I'm not arguing that! I just cant swing it all at once right now, I'll have to save up.

I re wired my Roof rack light system. It is now all soldered and loomed in 1/2 inch loom. Also made it all nice and pretty with zip ties around the lower inside rail of the rack.
