Since you asked Mike.

 

Blake ole buddy, I'll trade you even up for a set of 22.5" Alcoas.

 

 

That is a sweet ride!

 

Stargeezer- The pics of my truck are all stock no lift. I am about to install a 2" lift on the front. There is min. tire rub on the inner plastic on hard turns. There is some power loss but the H&S makes up for it. There is only a 5" difference in overall size versus stock. Overall height on my tire and rims is 36.6" becasue I am running a low pro 22.5 on the Alcoas.

 

hemisphere2 nice truck, how do you like the carli suspension? Which system did you go with? I am considering the Back Country system, don't really need that much suspension, but I hear the ride is like night and day.

 

Thanks! I have the 2.0 backcountry kit and it rides awesome, carli is making a radius arm setup like their 6'' kit for the 3'' crowd, I may get them when they are released.

 

I also have the replacement deaver full spring pack upgrade that carli sells, which made a HUGE difference!

 

Thanks, now getting my wife to open up the purse strings. I am hoping to get enough back from the gov to get mine. Bad part is can't do wheels and tires at the same time. going to look goofey for a little while.

 

Keep commenting on others, here is mine. I hope to add custom wheels and 285/75-18. Plan to upgrade suspension with a Carli Backcountry and black out bumpers and grill. I hope to get started this spring. Really riding fence on deleting.

 

Hemisphere nice lookin truck.

See your runnin a 2nd gen swap. Soon as I head home in April, maybe May, Im gonna stick a S466 on a steed on my truck.

You hit the rollers yet? Any nozzles? What kind of number you making?



Larry. I aint got nothing but a set of simulators to trade ya. Take em????


Lj, just remember, its easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission.

 

Hey Blake - Isn't that the second verse of the Red/Green "Man's Pledge"?

In any event, I have lived by this rule for many, many years and all its cost is a new SUV, quilting machine, a couple sewing machines, a swimming pool, a deck, why, I even bought her a new utility tractor with a backhoe.... Come to think of it, things MIGHT be less expensive if I'd just behave. Nah......

 

I am a little risk adverse, and if I tried that I would have an old Saturn instead of a new truck. So I put my weekly allowance back and a short 20 Weeks I will be able to get my suspension and then when I get my mileage reimbursement from work a set of new tires that don're look like they belong on a Dakota. Who ever thought 245'a belong on a large truck should be taken out and shot for not looking at these forums and seeing what the owners really want on these trucks. Seeing all these trucks make me just want to go lay down another$10k on all the things I need to make my truck look half as good.

 

Hey I got 235's on my truck....




Good luck on the mods though.

 

Thanks I want to do them right so don't want to rush it. So a beautiful white ram at Walmart and both of my girls said "daddy your truck should look like that." Had full deleted with 6" exhaust tip and 6" nds lift and 20" wheels and mid tires.
