i really believe there should be a "drw specific" club, thread, forum or what have you.... ...BUT...i don't want to be the guy running it!!!

Festus

Hmmmmm. You seem lonely in your club. You posted this quite awhile ago.

That's OK though. We won't reject you for being just a member of the Megacab Club.

Only them other guys, in that other one would do something like that.

SSminnow

OK, I am in. What do you want to talk about?

TonyB

Yeah, what's up?

darrenb

we could talk about anything drw specific without cluttering up the other threads. this entire forum gets alot of action daily, and at times it can be difficult to sort thru the hundreds of daily posts to find something specific to the drw. it's just a suggestion, and i haven't started one. i'm just thinking it may be good to have one.

ok, here goes. Why do my DRW tires only last about 40,000 miles? I dont tow and only lean on the skinny pedal hard ever so often. I figured they would last twice as long as normal SRWs?

Im in and I would guess most of the discussion about DRW is going to be related to tire issues

I'm game. I am the envy of the megacab DRW's any ways but I will put that a side to be in a DRW group.

Let's go get 'em.

wow you get 40,000 miles on your rear tires? My truck only has 22,000 and I need tires now. I would also like to know how to get more miles out of my front and rear tires.

U drw guy's don't have much to talk about.............
Rotation is key, I ran 3 sets of general ameritrac and got 60-70k from each set but there wasn't much tread left. I knew I needed new tires when 1 outside tire and 1 inside tire lost their tread at the same time , just glad it wasn't one of the fronts. I am trying dunlop radial rover now as they were cheaper. I have only had 3 alignments done since purchase in 99.

I'll jump on the whole drw thing, but not a tire question, this one is to do with rear sag, why is the rear of my truck sagging so soon? Not towing anythin heavy, actually not towing at all now, heaviest thing its towed is 12k and that was three times, just seems to really be sagging. pulled up to one today, same year, sat a full three inches higher???? Plus the front is squated alomost two inches in a year? what gives. And before it is said, I know I am so just

darrenb

i personally don't care for trucks with a sagging rear..but i never would have thought a drw would ever sag! i love the look of how they come from factory with the lowered-nose stance!


as for guys with 22.5 wheels...how do you, or can you even rotate the tires? i always thought the rear tires were just spun around and put on the front and vice-versa for the front to rear??? but it doesn't seem like it can?? what about the steel inners??

anybody know a source of good quality, higher-end mud flaps??

Copenhagenjunkie

These flaps work good. I got them on my truck. www.powerstore.cummins.com

I've seen some duallies with a molded rubber/plastic that is nice looking but have never seen anyone selling them. I thought they may be a Dodge accessory that has been dropped.
