What's different about the electrical?

 

The way that the power is distributed throughout the truck is different. I think the 06's had a lot of instrument cluster problems.

 

Are all the factory wheels from 04-07 (steel & aluminum) 17" by 8" wide?

 

Anybody know? I did some searching and it seems the alloy rims are 8" wide but are the steel as well? Also what emissions crap would be on an 06-07?

 

I believe so. I know the rims did not really change from 03-07, probably longer than that.

No emissions to speak of on the pre 6.7's... just a cat converter.

 

Thanks,that's what I was hoping for. I figured it would have similar emissions to 06 duramax, like egr, pcv something...

 

Found a truck,picking it up next week. Its an 06 QCSB 4X4 big horn edition. 100k with a built auto trans. 1 owner truck, guy said there's no other mods and had the trans done at 30k because warranty was up. Should have pics later tonight

 

Can't get pics to upload with my droid phone. If I go with a 2" leveling kit is there anything else I need to get like longer shocks,control arm.....

 

That's pretty sweet... get some pics up...

 

Thanks for all the help,made it easy figuring out what I wanted. I will be on here a lot now looking around, tons of great info

 

Welcome to the website.

I have a 2006 Dodge CTD CR with a little over 90,000 miles on it. It has been a very good truck so far. Like madhat, I had a few front end problems but Dodge covered it all under warranty. The stock transmissions need to be upgraded if you plan on adding any power upgrades.

Ok, man... get some gauges (EGT, boost, fuel pressure, tranny temp if you're gonna tow, and a rail pressure gauge) and a smarty Jr.

Upgrade the exhaust and air intake, stay away from K&N.

That ought to put it where you want it

 

welcome to the forum

 

I'm definitely gettin gauges and smart Jr. The exhaust has is 4" straight pipe but I think ill get a donaldson muffler. I'm still not sure what intake to go with

 

To be honest, I'd either swiss cheese the air box or make a CAI tube for it and either get a washable filter or run the stock dodge upgraded paper filter. Make sure the baffles are taken out of the air tube from the box to the turbo, or get an upgraded tube.

It'll save you some money doing the DIY. Or, you can get something that looks pretty...
