New Ram 2500 owner

just wanted to say hello, I have been a lurker for a long time and decided it was time to get my rig, its a 99 2500 sport, has 90,000 even on it and appears to have been well taken care of, I have been like a kid in a candy store since wendsday, the sound the truck makes is just awesome, I purchased a EDGE COMP box and injectors but will not install anything till I do a valve body and a fuel system, cant wait to dig into this thing, thanks for the great info this site has provided and wish me luck with my new addiction

First of all - Welcome...

Im not crazy about black....but looks to be in VERY nice shape. Looks like a baby version of Shovelheads machine:

Great Looking Truck, I think black is the one of the best colors out there, as long as it's clean, just a pain, just like my patriot blue.

I think it would be easier if he took the axles and tongue of of the camper and just put in the bed of the truck.

Sorry,

I got carried away after looking at the pic on the link. Nice truck, and like eswarta said but he forgot as long as its not hot out also.

Had a black Pathfinder and it would burn the holy heck out of my arm when I had to work on it in the summer.

nice lookin truck, the stance screams for a leveling kit, bombs away and don't be surprised how much faster the rear wheels wear than the fronts.....

Thanks guys, this is an awesome forum and I really appreciate the nice welcome, I got a ton os questions but dont wanna be a newbie so I will search as much as I can my first mod will be done tommorow, its a BHAF with the Outerwears cover on it, my best friend has a Duramax and already the competiton has started, he keeps calling to see if I put my box in yet, I told him to worry about his own truck, tommorow im gonna clean the IAT sensor and battery terminals plus install the filter, I will do a search on preventative maitanence before I try to make it faster, also a leveling kit sounds great, where can I purchase it Thanks again
