Im gonna try to photoshopp up a neat design for the 09 dodges, so what kinda design would u like to see? im thinking more semi style, any suggestions? also, i will need an above 45* shot of the front and a side shot of sombodys truck to work with, no boxes stacks or other ext mods please.

Maybe you can incorporate some different style fenders, sortive like the newer Chevy's?



Is this picture ok for the flipping hood design?

Raspy

Design it with a tilt front instead of a hood. It's the way of the future and should be there now. I'm surprised Ford doesn't already have it with all their cab removal problems. Also 19.5s as an option would be nice, so show those on your design.

i was actually thinking that.

different angle, that'll be hard to work with.

Switched photos, is that one any better?

iker42

that'll work

old dog

try this , 1992, drop front of front frnders 6 in ,(and headlights) hood from firewall to top of grill 3 in slope, sides of hood rounded down, front bumper wide and flat ,like over the road truck , bottum 4 to 5 in from pavement,(these changes will still leave a classic look and by using lg bumper it will work as an airdam ,along with the hood sloped ,wilL give good apearnce as well as improved aro .

I'll be checking in tommorow, im looking forward to that hood flip design. I know alot of the older BMW's have that option, I even think some of the old Datsun's were like that to.

Iker, bumper heigth i`m refering to would be the same as my runningboards.
think about the (Valvo road trucks) they are designed quite areodynamic,
when my picture is ready (prob tomorrow) in attachments ill post it , this aplication wouldn`t work for Off roads i realise . but for those of us who haul it would work great! I like the idea of the tilt front end also. WITH LOTS OF CROME.
(I still like the looks of the square front end on the trucks), just would like to tweek it a little.
I have actully been toying with the idea of fabricating a front bumper like i`m describing out of 3/16 Aluminum diamond plate so it would match my running boards,

id like too see several things in the new trucks, 19.5's, gear splitter option on 2wd along with beam axle with king pins and servicable bearings in place of 4x4 axle like some 2nd gen trucks for towing guys without having to go to 45/55 trucks, flip nose, gooseneck/5th as an option, now they will have 24 hour service places (thanks sterling), owning these trucks will be nice, they need options packages that are useful, powerwagon with a cummins, actual towing package for horse/hotshot people, farmers package would be somewhere along towing package but with vinyl floors and other amenities we need that city people dont, like live hydraulic connections under the rear bumper for moving equipment. i know some of this stuff is far fetched but it would be nice, especially the hydraulic lines.

the first one is what it';; look like with the hood down, the second one is with the hood up, the green bweteen the headlight and the hood is a hydrolic arm assist...





VERY ROUGH DESIGN!!
